Khonsu

Lunar Energies

Divine Timing/Blood Mysteries

Khonsu is a lunar god who appears with as many faces as the phases of the moon. Like the moon, he controls the tides and influences the weather. He is closely linked with Thoth, and like Thoth is seen as both the ibis and the baboon. Known as the Wanderer, he is a protector of travelers and a measurer of time.

Khonsu brings spiritual nourishment to our bodies and soul. He knows the exactly timing in which we are ready to receive communion and “eat the flesh of the Gods” so that we may become as one of them. Khonsu work on our behalf to fertilize our mind and hearts with the seeds of our own divinity. He engages the power of the moon to bring forth the healing rains that cleanse our old belief systems, and he renews our DNA at a cellular level. He governs the tides of the oceans and human emotions. Khonsu is a great healer said to be able to exorcise demons. He does this by honoring, feasting, and celebrating the diseases, and they go away happy.

If you have chosen this card, the time is now to move forward in some situation that you have been hesitant about. It is also a favorable time for travel. Whatever movement is being called for, you may want to harness the power of ritual. Create a communion ceremony in honor of the divine being that you are. Acknowledge the journey you have completed that has prepared you for the new phase your entering. You can do this spiritually or bring it to the physical plane by setting up an altar with food that represents the body of Earth and drink that represents the blood of the divine neteru. If you are in need of healing, honor the source of your disease, injury, or situation for the teaching it has brought you as you take in the holy sacraments.
