Isis gave birth to Horus after re-animating the corpse of her dead husband, Osiris. Horus was born on the floating island of Chemmis. The infant Horus is often referred to as Harpokrates and is represented as a baby, wearing only jewellry.
In his adult form, Horus is the Falcon-God Lord of the Sky and symbol of divine kingship.In ancient Egypt, the Pharaoh was seen as a manifestation of the living Horus on the throne of Egypt and each succeeding Pharaoh used the name of Horus as the first of his titles. Horus was raised by Isis in secret, and received spiritual visits from Osiris, who trained him to in the use of arms, so that he could reclaim his inheritance from Set, the slayer of Osiris. Horus teaches of absolute power, and of knowing the spirit as well as the body.
