Egyptians didn't just worship nature; they sought power over its most dangerous aspects. Sekhmet, a ferocious lioness goddess of death, was transformed into a deity to control her destructive power. By worshiping her, they believed she could be placated. The Egyptian religion was the glue that held society together. #EgyptianGods #Sekhmet #AncientEgypt #Mythology #Religion #AncientHistory From: Immortal Egypt with Joann Fletcher S1 Ep1 | Odyssey - Ancient History

Ra awakens the statue of Sekhmet to punish the wicked Egyptian for their blasphemy and sin. But during her death and destruction, he regrets his fatal decision and creates a river filled beer and pomegranate to simulate wine. After she drinks her fill, she falls a sleep for 3 days and awakens as the gentle Hathor (made with Sora2 AI). 𓋹𓎬𓋹𓎬𓋹𓎬𓋹𓎬𓋹𓎬𓋹𓎬𓋹𓎬𓋹𓎬𓋹𓎬𓋹𓎬𓋹𓎬𓋹𓎬𓋹𓎬𓋹𓎬𓋹𓎬𓋹 🎥 @egyptologylessons 𓋹𓊽𓋴𓆖𓎛𓇳𓎛 ©️ 𓊁𓊁𓊁𓊁𓊁𓊁𓊁𓊁𓊁𓊁𓊁𓊁𓊁𓊁𓊁𓊁𓊁 #ancientegypt #sora2 #sek
