The Temple of Isis

Mother Isis,
Lady Moon,
Mistress of Magic,
Healer Goddess,
Goddess of Priestesses, women, and children!


This is Ra blessing my WInged Isis statue in my front garden of my home in Luxor, Egypt.

Isis was the orginial Madonna. She had a divine child, without a father. Osiris, who was her husband, was killed and dismembered by Set, their evil brother. Set hid the pieces of Osiris' body all over Egypt, but Isis found all of them and put her husbands corpse back together. The only part She was not able to find, was Osiris' penis. Despite the fact of his being both dead, and without his penis, Isis was able to impregnant herself, by Osiris. (Thus a 'virgin' birth.) Horus, their son was born later.

Isis was also addresses by many of the titles, later given to Mother Mary, such as 'Queen of Heaven,' 'Mother of God,' Our Lady,' and 'Blessed Mother.'

Isis was so popular, that her worship did not end with the fall of the Egyptian Empire. She had had Temples erected to Her in Greece and Rome, later, and of course, has become one of the most popular Goddesses among Modern Witches.
Isis is one of the most common art images seen In Egypt today, with her out stretched wings. Alas Her people have stopped worshiping her but they have not forgotten Her at all.
