The Serpent’s Lock

The seal of protection, privacy and invisibility – can be stamped or marked on documents to protect them from prying eyes, lest the witches’ venom befall them. Can also be used to hide oneself from that which walks on the astral plane. 

The Serpent’s Key

Used to see that which is hidden – aiding in the perception of the Unseen: be it spirits, deities, omens, etc. It might also be employed to find lost or hidden objects, and expose secret truths people are hiding. In addition, it can also be used to reverse the Serpent’s Lock if the key is added.

Writer’s prayer to Djehuty

anciententity:

Praise Djehuty;
kissing the earth before Ra’s advisor.
Thrice Greatest Lord, sacred bird,
Lord of law, of words and knowledge
Creator God Who spoke the Word
You Who spoke into existence
All that is and all shall be,
Who played a game against the moon
That gods and men might be born,
Who aided Aset in Her flight from Set,
And judged in Heru’s favor as well,
You Who are mate of History,
Consort to the Feather of Truth,
Lord of scribes, playwrights, and poets,
Grant that I communicate with Your grace.
Accept my words, Great Djehuty.
Bless me with creativity
and the will to write what I know,
To offer my words and to keep them.
Be with me in my daily work,
be it speech or script, book or bargaining,
Communicating clearly and wisely
what I wish to create.
Grant me knowledge as well,
A thirst for ever deeper understanding,
A ready word and flowing pen.
