Active Offerings for Sutekh

July 27, 2017 Ash 0 Comments

Aside from the regular food and/or beverages that you may give during a ritual or prayer, offerings can also take the form of actions within your daily life. In regards to Sutekh, the following (but not limited to) can be done in honor of Him:

» Maintain Good Hygiene — One of the lessons that Sutekh often teaches is that change is crucial. Break out of those old, unhealthy habits and strive to maintain a hygienic lifestyle. Remember to brush your teeth, shower daily, wash your hands, and allow yourself time to rest. This allows you to get rid of what’s unnecessary in your life and to bring in what you need.

» Exercise — Returning to the idea of change, working to improve your physical shape is a healthy way to dedicate time and energy to Sutekh. Go outside and jog a few blocks, all in the name of Sutekh!

» Participate in a Political March/Event — Sutekh is the Lord of Chaos, and going out and directing your energy towards advocating for an issue is a great way to represent chaos. This does not mean, however, to go into rallies and commit illegal acts (e.g., vandalism and violence). Remember that Sutekh isn’t absolute chaos; Sutekh is also a protector - he safeguarded Ra on his solar barque. Stand up for what you believe, however do so with a ‘Big Stick’ ideology (”speak softly and carry a big stick”). You aren’t turning a blind eye by not throwing stones and smashing car hoods, you’re showing the masses that you’re serious and to be respected.

» Research — Learn as much as you can about Sutekh, your path, and more. By continuing to learn about your path and expanding your knowledge past it, you’re preventing stagnation in your life. In my experience, Sutekh wants you to be actively progressing and moving forward in your life. By learning more about your path or him, you’re doing just that: actively progressing.

» Affection and Sensuality — Sutekh is a rather sexual god and is known for phallic imagery/jokes. This aspect of Him can be honored with masturbation or showing your affection for those around you. Give your friend a hug, kiss your significant other, or have some fun in bed.
