Aries and its Decan Constellations.

Wall of the Ruler

Eye (Re/Hathor)
Utchat or Udjat

    On the Denderah Zodiac between Aries and the east fish of Pisces, we see an object that has a sun disk, within it is an Eye, which is similar to the eye of Re.    As can be seen in different versions of it we see variations on the eye inside the sun disk.
    Since the Eye is seen as a netjeru in an attribute of a human form, therefore it represents an attribute of spiritual understanding.

    I do not see any kind of wall represented here as some have stated as existing on the Denderah Zodiac, unless it is in reference to tail of Triangulum and Aries which do not seem to connect on the original Denderah Zodiac, nor connect with the bands of Pisces.

    I believe that the Utchat or Udjat the round eye of Horus, symbol of healing and protection as mentioned under Aries is most likely the Sun, since some of the other signs have Planet gods connected to them.

    In Egypt the hieroglyph O is the Egyptian Re, r3, meaning sun, light, or time,
    and the name Ra, rc, ra, meaning the god, Ra.
    Of interest is that the Sumerian ud, u4: n., sun; light; day; time; weather; storm (demon). prep., when; since.

    As we can see in the above image found on Senmut's Tomb is the hieroglyph for the "Eye of Horus."

    Below is an undefined image seen on the upper section of ESNE Plate 87 with a circle of 12 stars connected to a figure with eyes.    This could be the Eye of Re/Hathor - or the Utchat (Udjat).

    It is seen under Taurus and above an image of Osiris lying in a bed on a boat, this is seen before Aries and Pisces.

 

    www.siloam.net claims that the Eye, "at the east fish with the Utchat" (cosmic identity).    "This is the wall of the ruler of the I Am."    "The Utchat on the east fish of Pisces sits on the ‘Wall of the Ruler'."    "This wall cannot be crossed by self identity ... only by elimination of self identity and the acceptance of ... a true Cosmic Identity (I AM)."

    Under Pegasus in Aquarius, "The ‘Wall of the Ruler’ cannot be crossed by rational beings."

    "The Wall of the Ruler," in Egyptian hieroglyphs would look something like this:
hk3 inb.w, as hk3 is ruler
and inb.w is walls.
    From www.siloam.net/denderah it promotes "This journey was taken in the direction of the measure of time, which we call the precession of the equinoxes, and the Egyptians called the journey of the Eye of Ra (Ophiuchus, Serpens, and Argo Navis and entitled as 'Ra-Heru-Khuti')."

    On the Grand Temple the two deities in the image below are between Aries and Cassiopeia (Triangulum) and located above Grand Temple Decan 28.    Notice the figure on the right is a male with an animal on his head, similar to the figure seen on Grand Temple Decan 25, which is in the Pisces section and connects with Andromeda (Triangulum).    It is also possible that this figure may be Eridanus.    It is very possible that the figure to the left may be the Utchat (Eye).

 

    Other names for the Sun are:
    Coptic Pi-othiri, the sender forth of heat, as Ra,
    Egyptian Ra, giving out heat, in the Arabic sense, heat, kindled,
    Ra (as Helios), raying forth light and heat,
    Hebrew shemash (Chaldean), shem-ash', corresponding to Heb. shemesh, sheh'-mesh, from an unused root meaning to be brilliant, the sun, by implcation the east, fig. a ray, thus through the idea of activity implied in daylight, to serve, minister.
    One source claims that the Arabic Shemish means minister (as of light).
    Others claim that the Hebrew Chamah, or Shamash, (the sun), also means causing motion in the Arabic sense, troubling.
    This could be the Egyptian AR-RUO-RA, and possibly the Sumerian ARURU.
    Akkadian salbtanu, salbat, or salbatanu, means "fiery one."
    Sumerian MUL.DIR, burn, spout.

 

    As seen on "http://home.main.rr.com/ imyunnut/Den.Round.html" by Joanne Conman, "Above the upper fish is a Udjat Eye in a disk.    The Eye represents many things in ancient Egypt, one of them being the full moon.    Eric Aubourg believes the Eye on this ceiling represents an eclipse that dates the temple's construction to the summer of 51 BCE, in July or August.    He believes the planets' positions on the ceiling mark the stations of each planet for the year the temple was built."

 

Select one of the following to open it.
Each of these are connected to the constellation Aries,
Perseus, Cassiopeia, Eridanus, Eye (Re/Hathor) Utchat.
Decan 29, Decan 30.
