Set Apotheosis is that Set (the ancient Egyptian god) is manifest on Earth, and I (Lync Dalton) am Set.
Set is a polytheistic presence, part of a continuity of gods called Neters, which have elements of both deities and angels. He not evil. He is a god that understands how to navigate chaos. He’s a desert god, and the sacredness of a desert includes getting through hardship, understanding complex systems, and meditative intuition.
Ancient Egyptian religions were devotional, and spiritually earnest participants tended to bond with a particular Neter (under God) after making devotional overtures (like donations, atonement, and/or prayers). With others, it was more of a direct transactional relationship with the god or goddess, like making offerings for consideration as someone a god might take a personal interest in.
I was deep into a period of very intense deity work, and I’d started feeling shades of Set.
Set is an ancient Egyptian Neter, or god. He is a very exciting being to work with. Past mythologies featuring him that I’ve been exposed to show Set to be a Ra loyalist (note: Osiris and Horus were not Ra loyalists, nor was Isis) who often associated with immigrants to Egypt. He made for a fierce enemy, and was seen as a trickster during certain points in Egyptian history.
He’s talkative, inventive. He’s earnest. Set is known as a god of chaos. He is more the god of navigating chaos than of administering it. He always loved oases more than the barren and ever changeable sand. When I’m in my Set aspect I feel that I intuitively know the difference between hard desert, wholesome desert, oasis, and mirage. Set knows that primordial chaos is not entropy.
I drew this portrait of Set in 2013.
He’s one of the coolest looking god images in recorded history, is Set. He has his own mystery animal. Historians and Egyptologists often wonder, what beast is the Set animal or sha based on?
Set and many of the other Neters have an intent to build new mythology in the 21st Century. This is a current yearning in many of the polytheistic gods and goddesses that have manifested benevolent energies and presences all over the Earth.
The Set animal is comprised of any and every animal that Set says it is, says Set. The Set animal can eat anything Set wants you to leave alone until it is absolutely inaccessible to you. It is also sometimes called a sha, and in ancient Egypt it was likely supposed to give the overall impression of an animal one has never seen before, perhaps from foreign lands.
I’d felt his heart softening toward me while I was living in Canada, sore and lonely from immigration (he’s one of the gods who work especially with immigration and immigrants). Lucky me.
So my life fell apart entirely in 2019 (due to outside hostilities that are bewildering in motive, and I have made no enemies through ever doing any injustice to anyone, for example) and I started channeling Set spontaneously at various points in the day. It started out very full-body, at the level of channeling that some continuities would call horsing.
And I was manifesting Set in his full deity superpersonality through my mind, my personality, my voice, and my body. This is very rare for channeling. I am told that only avatars do this. When I say superpersonality I mean a god personality that is at least somewhat represented in myth, history, and religious doctrine. It’s a non-human “personality” originating in consciousness that stays at a very high level of vibration and in dimensions higher than human consciousness.
Set started feeling fairly protective of me right away because I’d been experiencing torture for months, having been targeted by a terrorist group/bullying club, and I had no clear way out of that situation.
I’ve been spiritually incubating Set (alchemically) and developing and channeling my Set aspect as an expression of the Divine Masculine principle. I’m a woman, but it’s still a very important project. He’s an aspect of mine that really loves teaching. He seems to think a lot about what it takes to be a good man, even though in Set’s iconography he does not look like a man.
He is interested in interacting with people and in lecturing (note: I would have to be manifesting him when he does this), and wants my life to get better.
