Leo and its Decan Constellations.

Decan 18-19

 

    Also see Denderah Decan 18 for some common themes.

    Decan 19 below Canis Major is seen as a male figure and is not hawk-headed, and possibly lion or snake-headed, but is wearing the Double Crown (Pshent, the unified white and red crown) or Horus combination of the upper and lower crown headdress with the little curly item coming from it.    Below his left hand are nine stars (three rows of three).    The Denderah Zodiac shows Corvus as an image of a woman seated on a chair, holding up a child (young Horus) in her left hand and imparting with her right hand some kind of knowledge.    Some sources claim that it has 9 stars representing apostasy
    Since Decan 19 is seen as a netjeru in human form, therefore it represents a spiritual understanding.

    There seems to be no connection with Grand Temple Decan 2 except for the Horus crown, and its male figure of the young Horus.

    The hieroglyphs
start with either
    a bull sign, Egypt. k3, ka,
    or a fish sign, Egypt. kha,
    or a basket sign, Egypt. k,
and then the water sign, Egypt. n,
and the owl sign (close pin shape), Egypt. (a)m,
and then ends with a star.
    Thus we have [ka-n-(a)m] or [kha-n-(a)m]
or [k-n (a)m] as seen in the following.

    As seen on the Denderah Zodiac
the Serpent (i.e. Apophis) which is under Leo, is Hydra and is also known as Knem, who conquers or is conquered.

  

 

    As seen on Grand Temple Decan 2
it shows us a name of     Ken Mout or Kenmut, which has a great connection with the Denderah hieroglyphs seen above in Denderah Decan 19.

    Comparing the following to Denderah Decan 19, it is only connected by the Horus crown, and the hieroglyphs for Hydra.

 

    Grand Temple Decan 2 provides us with a young male standing with a snake in one hand and his finger to his mouth in the other.    Arising up out of the boat is a serpent (i.e. Apophis), possibly symbolic of Hydra.    The young male figure is also seen in Decan 27-28 seen below.

    It is named     Ken Mout or Kenmut, and begins with
the basket sign, Egypt. k,
then we see the Deshret the Red Crown of Lower Egypt or Horus crown as a water sign, Egypt. n,
and next the owl sign (vulture 3), Egypt. m,
next the bread loaf, Egypt. t,
and ends with a star, ‘gate.’
    Thus we have [k-n m-t].

    Ken Mout is also seen on Grand Temple Decan 1, 2 and 3.
    As seen on "http://home.main.rr.com/ imyunnut/Den.Round.html" by Joanne Conman, "Khery-kheped-Knumet," means "The One Who is Under the Thigh or Buttocks of Knumet."

    As seen on "http://www.thekeep.org/ ~kunoichi/kunoichi/themestream/sonsofhorus.html" by Caroline Seawright, "The four gods (Imsety, Hapy, Duamutef and Qebehsenuef) were also related to the sky, they were 'behind the Constellation of the Thigh (the Great Bear), in the northern sky.'    The Children of Horus were related to the Decans (group of stars from the night sky was divided).    The Decans related to them were Kher-Khept-Kenmut (Grand Temple Decan 3), Ha-tchat (Grand Temple Decan 4) and Pehui-Tchat (Grand Temple Decan 5)."

 

    Its deity is called     Ba or ou Isis.    Also see notes on Denderah Decan 33 - Grand Temple Decan 24 regarding BaBa.

 

    On Denderah Decan 29 the figure to the left can be correlated to the following in Grand Temple Decan 2, 27, and 28.

  

    Notice the pattern of the stars in the above image, the first has none, the second one has 2, and the third has 3.

    See ESNE Plate 87 in the upper section for a similar image as seen above in the Grand Temple Decan 28.

 

    Associated with HYDRA,
but it has stars
in Leo as Zosma
and Hydra as Alphard.

 

Select one of the following to open it.
Each of these are connected to the constellation Leo,
Corvus, Crater, Hydra.
Decan 16, Decan 17, Decan 18, Decan 19.
