HATHOR - Mother of the Pharoah



Honour thy Mother, Hathor :)
  • Universal Cow goddess associated with childbirth.
  • Often depicted with a crown of cow horns and a sun disc.
  • Like Isis, sometimes described as the mother of the Pharaoh and thus associated with the birth right and right to rule.
  • She is the sensual goddess of love, music and beauty.
  • The Greeks likened her to Aphrodite.
  • Colours are deep oranges, pinks and peaches - colours of vitality.
(Lawson 1996)
