Anubis/Inpew
by Mirjam

Anubis/Inpew/Yinepu/Anpu, "Lord of the Hallowed Land", meaning the necropolis. Jackal or dog headed god protecting the deceased. Known since Predydnastic times and linked to the name Khenty Amentiu, "Foremost of the Westerners". He was also the protector of embalming and guardian of the mummy and the necropolis. Sem priests used to wear a mask of Anubis during mummification.

After the cult of Osiris had risen to power, Anubis was placed under his rule, Osiris taking over much of Anubis´ role as caretaker and protector. This is when Anubis became the embalmer, ("he who is before the divine booth") and overseer of the funerary proceedings.

In the Hall of Judgement he oversaw the weighing of the heart of the deceased. In myth he is sometimes called the son of Nebt-Het (Nephtys) and Set or of Nephtys and Osiris. The jackal or doglike animal which he also is shown in has so far not been satisfactorily identified.

Main center of worship:

Zawty/Lycopolis/Asyut, 13th N, Upper Egypt

Other places:

Mena´t Khufu/ el Minya, 16th N, Upper Egypt

Hardai, 17th Nome, Upper Egypt

Saqqara 1st N, Lower Egypt.

My younger brother went to Europe last year, and brought me back a statue of Anubis. I wasn't really sure how to react to it at first, to be honest. I've always felt very positive towards him, but I don't really know very much about him. I'm not going to claim direct contact, either; for some reason I've had a sense of being watched occasionally, which seems to come from the statue, but that is about it. I get the feeling that he glances at me every now and then, but doesn't say anything.

So I'm not really sure what he wants, if anything...but I don't mind having his statue here. It took me some time to get to a point where I felt certain about that, though.

Odd, I feel the same.

I always felt a kinship with him, I have an Anubis statuette next to the monitor, I always felt better having it around, as if he watches. Almost, as if he cares.

I think I might get a little closer to him. I have always been happy doing my own little thing, staying in my corner and venturing out when I so desire.

There has been an entity who had some major involvement in my life at certain points. I just realised who it was.

I think it is time to do a little astral wandering and pay some respect where respect is certainly due.
