my family has always been really into hawks, but it seems like the past few weeks, they’ve been everywhere. i mean, i saw one just chillin on the fence outside the restaurant i was in the other day. @ heru-wer are you trying to tell me something

zooophagous:

Ammit the Devourer. According to ancient Egyptian writings, when you die, your heart gets weighed by Anubis on a scale against the feather of Ma’at.

If your heart is lighter than a feather, congratulations you won.

If not, your heart gets fed to Ammit. Ammit is part lion, crocodile, hippo and has a spotted coat. Mmm, hearts.

Ammit is for sale! A cool 30$ and it’s yours.

it’s weird. some people are culturally christian (as in, non-practicing, but identifying with christian traditions in some way), but i’m the opposite. i don’t identify with most, if any, of the traditions i grew up with. honestly, if i weren’t a theist, a lot of my perspectives would make it seem like i’d grown up a luciferian or something.

when i was younger, i was always told that “ghosts are just demons pretending to be dead people!” i mean, if that’s true, there was a pretty nice demon who was giving me advice when i was practicing driving yesterday lmao

A lot of demons are friendly anyway tbh. They’re not all evil.

true, i’ve met some pretty pleasant demons and ‘darker’ beings. it’s just kind of funny to me, having experienced what i have with the dead, that people think all spirits claiming to be the deceased are actually evil. sure, some might be, but somehow i doubt even a mostly-harmless trickster would warn me about obstacles in my blind spot
