Sekhmet's Mountain Sanctuary

Dedicated in thanks to Sekhmet for her many gifts and her protection of people, creatures and the forest. Life size statue is surrounded by temple panel walls used to create a temple on the beach for the annual Isidis Navigium rituals of Isis each March. Sekhmet is a deity and archetype of personal empowerment, particularly for women. Thanks to Roy, Mike, Melody and Shelli for their contributions to the temple space located on sacred Chumash land.

@Forestimp45 So I think saying "black" can be an oversimplification. The Egyptains were... the Egyptians. (Not modern inhabitants of Egypt) Also, artists to some things simply for artistic value. My friend has very fair skin and blonde hair in real life, but when I paint her she's blue with greenish eyes and lavender hair, simply because those are "her" colours. Artists also mess up. I had to draw a mask on someone because I screwed up her face. Artists do things for different reasons.

@knowitallification Thank you. I know we disagree, but I don't think we disagree as drastically as we think. I wasn't trying to imply that the Egypitans were in no way black, but a lot of groups of people have been called black, and there are so many different shades of skin that someone can have and identify themselves as black. Any given continent has many different ethnic groups and subgroups of those groups. People don't all look the same even in their own families.

@knowitallification To be honest, i'm having some trouble responding to you. I don't do well when people get very sensitive to racial issues. I don't think that this video is meant to be disrespectful to anyone. I'd rather people talk about and celebrate a culture than say "oh that's just for them, I can't touch it." I love the Neteru with pride and I don't think they care if my skin looks a certain way.
