RA

(aka Re)

Sun-god of Heliopolis (known to the Egyptians as Annu), head of the Heliopolitan Ennead. He was considered self created and the creator of all. He is the father of Tefnut and Shu. Ra has been known by many names and takes many different forms. This makes him the most confusing of gods to understand. At sunrise, he is Khepera, represented by the sacred scarab. Around noon, when the sun is at its full power, he is Ra. At sunset, when the sun is said to be at its weakest and growing old, he is Tem or Temu. He travels across the sky with the sun upon his head in two boats. The boat used in the morning is called Matet, which means, “becoming stronger”, from midday on he travels in the Semktet (growing weak) boat. When he has set, he begins his journey into the underworld or the Duat/Tuat. Here he encounters many dangers and foes. Chief among them is a creature called Apep. He usually wins the battles with Apep and is the born anew as Khepera, ready to repeat the cycle. On a number of occasions Ra has been merged with other solar deities. For example, Ra was merged with the Theban god Amen/Amun, to become AMUN-RA.
