Eye of Horus

Wadjet is an ancient Egyptian symbol, representing a falcon's eye, knocked out from Horus during his fight with Set. Symbolized the moon, whose phases were explained by damage during the legendary battle. Personifies various areas world order, from royal power to fertility.

The Eye, or Eye of Horus, which is also called Atshet or the All-Seeing Eye, the Eye of Healing, has always meant hidden wisdom and clairvoyance, personified protection, healing from illness and resurrection after death. One of the legends tells about the case when Set killed Osiris, Horus resurrected Osiris by letting him eat his eye, cut into pieces by Set, which the god Thoth spliced ​​and revived.

The Eye of Horus is depicted as an eye with an eyebrow and a spiral. Many researchers explain this part of the Eye as a symbol of energy and eternal life, eternal movement. The Eye is often depicted in color using blue, blue-green, green and red.

Amulets in the form of the eye of Horus were worn by both pharaohs and simple people. They were placed in a shroud with mummies so that the deceased would be resurrected in the Afterlife.

The surviving ancient Egyptian texts have brought to us different versions myth about the eye of Horus. According to one of them, Seth pierced Horus’s eye with his finger, according to another, he stepped on it, according to the third, he swallowed it. One of the texts says that Hathor (or Tefnut) restored her eye by feeding it with gazelle milk. Another says that Anubis buried the eye on the side of a mountain, where it sprouted shoots in the form of a vine.

Horus used the reborn eye to resurrect his father Osiris. After Osiris swallowed the eye of Horus, his dismembered body grew together in the same way as the eye itself. Intended to help with resurrection, images of the eye of Horus were applied to Egyptian mummies at the hole through which their entrails were removed. Every month in the temples of Egypt, rituals were held to “restore” the Eye of Horus, associated with the lunar cycle.

“Isis conceived Horus from the dead Osiris, killed by the desert god Set, his brother. Retiring deep into the swampy Nile delta, Isis gave birth to and raised a son, Horus, who, having matured, in a dispute with Set, seeks recognition of himself as the sole heir of Osiris.

In the battle with Set, the killer of his father, Horus is defeated - Set tore out his eye, the wonderful Eye, but then Horus overpowered Set and deprived him of masculinity. Horus allowed his wonderful Eye to be swallowed by his father, and he came to life. After defeating Set, the eye of Horus grew again. The resurrected Osiris handed over his throne in Egypt to Horus, and he himself became the king of the underworld.”

The hieroglyphs for the divine eye in Egyptian writing are translated as "eye" and "to protect". Thus, the general meaning of this sign is: “guarding eye.” Apparently, the outline of this symbol reflected both features human eye, and the features of a falcon.

In one of the elements of Wadjet, scientists see a symbolic image of a falcon - the embodiment of Horus.

In Egyptian arithmetic, the components of Wadjet were used to write fractions from 1/2 to 1/64, and were also used to measure capacities and volumes.

The Eye was depicted on Egyptian tombstones to help the dead in afterlife. Often, the Eye amulet also depicted a king cobra guarding it. Wadget was also depicted on the bow of boats to prevent them from going astray. The Eye of Horus served as a prototype of the painted eyes that were inserted into statues and masks of the dead in order to “revive” them and infuse them with souls during the ritual of “opening the lips and eyes.”

“Your soul descends upon the sacred sycamore, you call upon Isis, and Osiris hears your voice, and Anubis comes to call you. You receive the oil of the country of Manu, which came from the East, and Ra rises above you at the gate of the horizon near the sacred doors of Neith. You pass through them, your soul is now in the highest heavens, and your body is in the lower ones... O Osiris, may the Eye of Horus forever convey what blooms in it to you and your heart!” After these words were spoken, the ceremony was repeated again. Then removed from the body internal organs they were placed in the “liquid of the sons of Horus” for impregnation, the corresponding texts were read over them and placed in funeral vessels.

One of the symbols that literally permeates the entire mythology and history of Egypt, and is related to many gods and pharaohs, is Wadget in its two main forms - the Eye of Ra and the Eye of Horus.

Eye of Ra

Eye of Ra, or the Solar Eye, personified power and authority, fire and light, vigilance and speed of reaction and was capable of burning any enemy. It was usually depicted as a Uraeus-cobra, quite often winged (apparently in honor of the goddess Nekhbet), sometimes with a solar disk.
The Solar Eye was identified with Wadjet (one of the few goddesses whose serpentine nature is beyond doubt), Nekhbet, Maat, Hathor and with all the goddesses depicted as a lioness: Tefnut, Sokhmet, Mehit and others.

As a prototype of the uraeus, the guardian of Ra, Wadget, was often presented in the form of a primordial snake spewing fire and poison - the sun's eye, burning his enemies with its fire. The image of the uraeus, according to some sources, was based on the southern Egyptian cobra - gaya, according to others - the asp.

Uraeus was a symbol of royal greatness, the power of life and death, the ability to rule and destroy the enemies of Ra. It was an integral part of the headdress of the pharaohs in the form of a vertical forehead snake, worn on a diadem, and from the Middle Kingdom - on a crown. The crown of Amun was topped with two uraei.
Images of the uraeus as protective signs were included in the sculptural decoration of buildings (the cornice of the chapel in the ensemble of the pyramid of Pharaoh Djoser in Saqqara, 28th century BC, etc.), paintings of tombs, drawings of the “Book of the Dead”, etc.

They are also widely represented in the architecture of some European cities.

In the predynastic era, Egypt included two warring regions - Upper and Lower (along the Nile). After their unification around 2900 BC. Pharaoh Men or Narmer into a centralized state, the country continued to be administratively divided into Upper and Lower Egypt, and was officially called the “Two Lands”. These are real historical events are reflected in many myths, according to which Egypt from the very beginning of the universe included two parts, each of which had its own patron goddess.
The southern part of the country was under the protection of Nekhbet, a goddess in the guise of a female kite, while the northern part was under the protection of the cobra snake Wadjet. Nekhbet and Wadjet were considered the daughters of Ra and his Eye.
The gods and pharaohs, under whose supervision and protection state power was in Egypt, wore the “United Crown of the Two Lands” - the “Pschent” crown. It was a combination of crowns

Upper and Lower Egypt into one whole and symbolized the unification of the country and power over it. On the Pschent crown a uraeus was depicted, rarely two uraeus: one in the form of a cobra and the other in the form of a kite; sometimes - papyri and lotuses tied together (emblems of Lower and Upper Egypt). Occasionally symbols united

The lands were represented by two cobras, crowned with red and white crowns.
The supreme deities also wore the atef crown - a headdress of two tall feathers, usually blue (heavenly) color - a symbol of deity and greatness. Amun was always depicted wearing the atef crown.

The Eye of Horus (Eye of Ra, Wadjet) is a unique artifact of antiquity that protected a person from evil forces and spirits. This sign was promoted many centuries ago as a tool of protection and healing. The Eye of Horus was an integral part of talismans and amulets. The ancestors of the Egyptians believed in the strength and power of the deity, who became the ruler on Earth and legitimized the power of the pharaohs.

Origin story

According to ancient manuscripts, Horus was the son of Osiris (lord of the underworld). The inhabitants of the Nile Delta many centuries ago believed that the Son of the God of new life had unusual organs of vision.

One day, the son of Osiris partially lost his unique gift. The reasons for what happened are described in ancient sources, but they vary. According to one legend, the God of war and chaos, Seth, personally gouged out his left eye, and according to another, the patron of disorder, personifying evil, stepped on the organ of vision, symbolizing the Moon, and then squeezed it out.

There is also a version that Seth simply swallowed the “divine” eye. Does this mean that Horus will forever be without an eye? Some manuscripts report that the God of Wisdom (Thoth) helped return Horus’ organ of vision to its place. Some ancient Egyptian sources say that the healing occurred thanks to the Goddess of Love, who gave the victim gazelle milk to drink.

After some time, a version arose that the eye of Ra was placed in the ground by Anubis (patron of the dead) with a special ritual. Then a vine appeared in the place where the eye of Horus was buried.

Despite the magic of the artifact, the ancient Egyptians did not immediately believe in it. magical power. The amulet with the image of Wadget began to be made after one mythological incident, when Horus healed his own father with the help of his eye. But the amulet of the eyes of Horus also appeared later; initially, a symbol of protection and healing adorned mummies. Soon the Egyptians began to tattoo the Eye of Ra.

It is noteworthy that Horus, depicted with white eyes, was a symbol of the world of the living, and the black eye personified the world of the dead.

Wadjet was significant evidence and a serious argument in favor of the fact that the people living in the Nile Delta are obliged to obey the will of the pharaoh (supreme ruler). However, other peoples also realized divine power artifact. But they depicted the eye of Horus in a triangle, which personified:

1. light and wisdom among Buddhists;
2. goodness and the divine principle among some Christian peoples;
3. beauty and wisdom among the Greeks.
