https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uraeus
“The Uraeus (/jʊəˈriːəs/; plural Uraei or Uraeuses; from the Greek οὐραῖος, ouraîos, "on its tail"; from Egyptian jꜥrt (iaret), "rearing cobra") is the stylized, upright form of an Egyptian cobra, used as a symbol of sovereignty, royalty, deity and divine authority in ancient Egypt.
>> What comes next in this Wikipedia page is a repeat of what I said earlier about the Uraeus being the combination of Wedjat and Nekhbet and it’s on the Pharaoh’s crown etc. So I’m not going to put it again, if anons are interested, they can read them in the link. I’m skipping them and only putting the notable parts.
“Symbolism
[…]
Later, the pharaohs were seen as a manifestation of the sun god Ra, and so it also was believed that the Uraeus protected them by spitting fire on their enemies from the fiery eye of the goddess. In some mythological works, the eyes of Ra are said to be uraei. Wadjets existed long before the rise of this cult when they originated as the eye of Wadjet as a cobra. Wadjets are also the name of the symbols called the Eye of the Moon, Eye of Hathor, the Eye of Horus, and the Eye of Ra—depending upon the dates of the references to the symbols.”
>> This description of the Wadjet reminds me of the snake like iconography of lightning. It seems what came out from these weapons was not a linear beam but more like how electricity/lightning comes out, as seen in the picture I’ve attached to page 659. Anons shouldn’t forget that both ThunderBirds and the Horned Serpent warriors held that type of weapon. Also, I want to ask anons to go back to the iconography I’ve put for the deities in Mesopotamia and Mesoamerica and observe how their staffs = weapons are depicted like snakes. In this paragraph, they tell us many Ancient Egyptian deities hand an EYE. Some of us assumed it’s one Eye “borrowed” by many deities; but what if each deity had its own Eye, as in its own weapon? It’s an idea worth contemplating.
“As the Uraeus was seen as a royal symbol, the deities Horus and Set were also depicted wearing the symbol on their crowns. In early ancient Egyptian mythology, Horus would have been the name given to any king as part of the many titles taken, being identified as the son of the goddess Isis. According to the later mythology of Re, the first Uraeus was said to have been created by the goddess Isis, who formed it from the dust of the earth and the spittle of the then-current sun deity. In this version of the mythology, the Uraeus was the instrument with which Isis gained the throne of Egypt for Osiris. Isis is associated with and may be considered an aspect of Wadjet.”
>> I guess this paragraph sums up everything I’ve been saying about the Wadjet and the warriors. The Wadjet was used by both sides and we have many deities using it and Isis was some type of leader of the ThunderBirds, a warrior lady.
