Description

She was a goddess of many things, among them she was a: Celestial goddess: The Mistress of Heaven Goddess of love, music and beauty: the Goddess of Love, Cheerfulness, Music, and Dance, Goddess of women, fertility, children and childbirth: The Mother of Mothers, the Celestial Nurse, Goddess of destruction and drunkenness: The Vengeful Eye of Ra, the Lady of Drunkenness, Goddess of the dead: Lady of the West She was also known as the Mistress of Life, the Great Wild Cow, the Golden One, the Mistress of Turquoise, Lady of Dendera (her cult centre was located at Dendera), Mistress of Qis, Lady to the Limit (of the Universe), Lady of Punt (perhaps an area in present day Somalia - see Hatshepsut Expedition to Punt), the Powerful One, the Mistress of the Desert, Lady of the Southern Sycamore (she was depicted as handing out water to the deceased from a sycamore tree, hence a goddess of moisture as well as of the dead, both relating to the sycamore tree), Lady of Malachite (eye makeup from Sinai was made from green malachite - Sinai was one of Hathor\'s domains)... and many other names, besides. The reason that she has so many names, one would assume, is because she is an ancient goddess - she seems to have been mentioned as early as the 2nd Dynasty. She may even been associated with the Narmer palette - although the two human faced bovines may also have been a representation of the king. It is interesting to note, though, that there is not a personal name of the goddess mentioned in the list of names - they are all titles. Another interesting thing about Hathor is found in one particular Egyptian tale - when the hero of the story was born, the \'Seven Hathor’s\', disguised as seven young women, appeared and announced his fate. They seemed to be linked with not only fortune telling, but to being questioners of the soul on its way to the Land of the West. These goddesses were worshiped in seven cities: Thebes, Heliopolis, Aphroditopolis, Sinai, Momemphis, Herakleopolis, and Keset. They are linked to the Pleiades.
