Originally the chief god of Thebes, Amon grew increasingly important in Egypt, and eventually he became the supreme deity, identified as Amon Ra (See Ra).
His temple, Karnak, is the largest religious structure ever built by man. Amun was thought of as the creative source of all life in heaven and earth, the seas and the Underworld. This creative power was manifested in the form of Ra, hence Amun-Ra.
Amun is frequently represented as a ram or as a human with a rams head. The Egyptians believed that he took the form of the ruling human King in order to procreate. His name means "hidden"; his image was painted blue, which was the symbol of invisibility. His wife was Mut, with whom he had the son Khonsu, the god of the moon.

Maat was a teenage girl goddess who was often represented as a pair of twins. She was Truth and Order, Harmony and equilibrium, justice and supreme balance; the concept that the universe, above everything else is an ordered and rational place. Her domain encompasses predictability and regularity - constants. She is - paradoxically - the Goddess of Science, as well as integrity and honor.
She stands at the entrance to the material plane. At the time of one's death, she will place their heart on her scales and weight it against a feather. If they balance, then that person may pass on to the afterlife in peace. If not, it means that the heart is heavy with evil, and the soul is devoured by the monstrous goddess Ahemait.
Description: Tropical perennial with fleshy roots and stems growing up to 6 ft. Capsules of small seeds follow long fragrant tubular white or pink flowers.

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.
