Ra
Ra (Re) is an Egyptian god that represents the radiating sun, a star that radiates light because it fuses hydrogen into helium, is the life giving force for life on earth. It originated in the Aryan worship of Arya and the new born sun Harya, risen of the horizon. The sun rules Leo (the lion was always considered as a symbol of male, dominant force). In Egypt Harya became Hor. The Egyptians worshiped the sun as Ra or Re (Khepri as rising and midday sun and Atum as setting sun), called themselves pha-ra-o's and built py-ra-mids. | ![]() |
