Description
Bastet is the Egyptian goddess of cats, music, dance, happiness, family, pregnant women and children.
The Egyptian cat goddess, Bastet, had numerous areas of influence that developed over time. In the early days she was the fierce lion headed Goddess of the lower Nile who protected the Pharaoh and the sun God Ra. This is why she has the title of “Goddess of protection.” In this role she became Goddess of the rising sun and holder of the Utchat, the all seeing eye of Horus. Statues of this Egyptian Goddess would be placed in households to protect them from evils.
