Pisces / Nut a la Rosemary
“Nut is the last sign of the zodiac because she is the beginning and the end of the Sun’s circuitous path, * just as Pisces is depicted as the two fish (or two sycamore trees of Nut **) that face both directions in the sky.”
“In … Pisces, there is both conclusion to the cosmic journey and preparation for a new rhythm of experience, simultaneous endings and beginnings …(Nut) … gives birth to the soul on earth and welcomes the soul to the sky when it returns.”
“The water jar on her (Nut’s) crown symbolises the incubating womb that continuously brings incarnations to the initiate and allows the soul transition to new realms.”
Correspondences to Nut: Lapis lazuli, Indigo, Aluminium (Egyptian = Ibnu), Storax, Ambergris, Sycamore.
Principle; Augmentation, incubation, completion.
Function; Gestation.
Peace, recuperation, healing dreams, intuition. Assists conception, pregnancy, childbirth.
Rituals; The Offering of the Hours (a night vigil with ritual for each hour)
From Rosemary Clarke – Sacred Wisdom and Magic of Ancient Egypt.
[This is based on Egyptian New Kingdom astrology, hence Greek influenced.]
* Ref; Inscribed text, sarcophagus Seti I discloses solar journey of the soul through cosmic regions that culminates in a celestial rebirth through Nut.
