#EYE OF OSIRIS SERIES#
When Horus came of age, he sought revenge against Seth and fought a series of legendary battles as to who would inherit the throne to the netherworld.
Afterward, Osiris went on to become the god of the underworld. Isis thereafter gathered Osiris’ body parts and resurrected him just long enough for her to conceive his heir, Horus. In the most widely accepted version of the legend behind the Horus symbol, it is said that Osiris was killed and mutilated by Seth, his own brother, himself the god of fire, chaos, trickery, deserts, storms, disorder, envy, violence and foreigners. He was the son of the Egyptian Lord of the Underworld, Osiris and his sister-wife Isis, the goddess of life and magic. Horus was a mighty god associated with the heavens. The Stories Behind the Symbolīoth legends of the Egyptian gods Horus and Ra have varying versions, with many details rendered unclear as a result. While the Eye of Ra belonged to the sun god Ra and was based on a legend of fury, hate, violence and destruction, the Eye of Horus wes based on a legend of healing and regeneration. Both Egyptian Eye symbols stand for the powerful “all-seeing-eye” in ancient Egyptian beliefs and are often used interchangeably, but are actually two distinct symbols that are based on two different legends for two different gods. In ancient Egypt, the Eye of Horus was just as popular and used as frequently as the Eye of Ra. The Eye of Horus became the most popular ancient Egyptian eye symbol associated with good health, protection, and royal power. These beliefs paved the way for the myths about Horus to be embraced by ancient Egyptians.
They also believed that the effects of the evil eye can be defeated by the “good eye”. The ancients believed that the eyes have the power to cast spells with a single glance.
