The Cippus (700 BC to Roman Era)

The Cippus of Horus is an Egyptian healing charm that is carved on a flat

tablet of stone.

It shows a youth named Horus the falcon god holding wild beasts. He is
unafraid, for his mother Isis has made magic to heal him.

Egyptian mothers poured water over such charms and then washed their
children with it, or had them drink it, to heal them from things that poison.

In this example the fierce funny dwarf

god Bes, protector of children, is above
Horus. Underneath his feet is the
crocodile. He holds snakes and a lion
and a gazelle.

Legend of Isis in the Delta

After Seth the god of the wild desert killed

her husband Osiris, Isis took her infant son
Horus to hide in the marshes of the Nile
river delta.

Poisonous snakes bite babies here and so Isis

needed a magic charm to protect Horus. She

called upon the funny dwarf god Bes who loves all children. She called on
Ra the Sun and Thoth the Moon, and the grandmothers Vulture and Cobra.

In this cippus of Horus we can see the youth holding different animals, and
guarded by adult gods. To his right stands the vulture grandmother of upper
Egypt, Nekhebet, and Isis his mother, and Osiris-Ra his father. To his left
stands ibis-headed Thoth and

Wadjet the cobra grandmother of lower Egypt. Above him is Bes again, and
the Eyes of Horus which are the sun and the moon. These eyes have human
hands held up like Reiki palms to help Bes guard Horus. We can see this
posture again at the curved top of the charm. The baboons of Thoth and the
moon god himself raise hands to honor and strengthen the magic. The
plumes of Amon the hidden Wind god of Thebes stand quietly guard nearby.

We also notice in the third row down, a chariot and winged horse riding over
a crocodile. This unknown Egyptian legend may be the precursor of the
story of Pegasus and Bellepheron who defeated the chimera.

In the fourth row we see several gods with spears threatening snakes and
crocodiles. Seth the fierce warrior was set in the prow of the sun god’s barge
as it moved across the sky to keep monsters away. Seth probably was being
wisely punished for his murder of Osiris.

On the back of the cippus shown above is this curious figure of a god
with the wings of a falcon, the head of Bes, the lightning of the storm and
snakes around his thighs. It is very possible that this is the early form of
the gnostic god Abraxas who was shown as a serpent-footed god of magic
and protection.

How to heal with this attunement

Just say aloud (name of system) once and let the energy flow through your hands and
heal as you usually do.

How to take down this attunement

Just say aloud “I am now accepting the attunement to (name of system) from (name of
teacher) in a way that is good for my health and spirit. So be it.”

And relax for a few minutes. You may sense energy tingling in your hands or warmth, or
if you close your eyes and let your mind drift away, you may see unusual pictures. It
really doesn’t matter. It works even if nothing is sensed at all.

How to give this attunement

Just say aloud “I now attune (name of student) to the energies of (name of system) in a
way that is good for both of us, in health and spirit. So be it.”

Or you can put the attunement in a “chi ball” of imagined energy and let the student pull
it down when convenient.

Best wishes and love and light,
