Decan 5-6
|
Decan 5 is seen under the body of Sagittarius as a male figure with a hawk head, with no stars designated around him and on his head is no crown, but only hieroglyphics.
Since Decan 5 is seen as a netjeru in a human form, therefore it represents a spiritual understanding.
The hieroglyphics above his head are seen as either
the ram head sign, Egypt. kh,
or the bread loaf, Egypt. t,
and the sandy slope sign, Egypt. k,
then either
the lower arm sign, Egypt. a,
or the pool sign, Egypt. s (sh),
and followed by the leg sign, Egypt. b.
Thus reading [kh-a-b] or [t-k-s-b].
Denderah Decan 5 is stated from
www.siloam.net as meaning, "Solomon, sun-man, Consciousness."
From www.siloam.net/denderah it claims that Denderah Decan 5, 6, and 7 represented as Wisdom are entitled as "Rational Feelings." "The enlightened one is transformed into a knowledgeable man who wears the atef crown of rational understanding and walks behind the man with a bare head of a serpent."

Compare to Denderah Decan 5, the only connection is the male figure with a hawk head.
Grand Temple Decan 16 is a male figure with a hawk head and a (Uraeus, emblem of Lower Egypt, the "fiery eye of Re") or a Cobra in striking posture sitting on his head, where we see two stars, one on each side of it.
Its name is seen as Chemsou, Shesmu, or Seshmu, seen as
a sign for Egypt. c, or s,
then the twisted flax wick sign, Egypt. h,
next a sign for Egypt ms, with the sign to the right is also called Sa a symbol meaning protection, representing a rolled up herdsman's shelter or a papyrus life-preserver used by ancient Egyptian boaters.
and then a sign for Egypt. ou.
This is [c-h-ms-ou] or [s-h-ms-ou].
As seen on "http://home.main.rr.com/imyunnut/Den.Round.html" by Joanne Conman, it is implied that Seshmu means "The Guide" or possibly "The Counterpart," on the basis that "this decan rose heliacally (just before sunrise) at the time Sirius rose acronychally (just after sunset)." Also mentioned is Sawey Seshmu meaning "The Two Sons of Seshmu," but I have not located this name in the normal list of the decan names, except as seen above.
The deity is seen as Our ou Hor (Heru or Ur).
From www.siloam.net/denderah it claims that "In Egypt, the Wandering Ones were called the Shemsu Hor, or the Followers of Horus, we know them as the Israelites."
I have found many references in the calendar festivals of Egypt, which comments on a certain deity and his Shemsu (Partisans) or followers, but this is not to be confused with Shesmu.
Associated with SAGITTA,
but has stars in Capricornus as Dabih
and Capricornus and Ursa Major as Algedi.
