"Volume III - Aquarius and its Decan Constellations"

Aquarius and its Decan Constellations.

Decan 35-36

    Decan 36 is seen below Aquarius as a goose, and above it are twelve stars (three rows of four), which may be a symbol of a complete cycle.
    Since Decan 36 is seen as a netjeru in a animal form, it represents a pure force of nature.
    Of note is the deity Amen (Amun) is sometimes depicted in the form of the Nile Goose or a ram with curved horns.

    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.

 

    There is a connection with Grand Temple Decan 21 in that the Decan name of
Saouy seret, Sawey Seret, Sasa-sert, or Sasa seret, provides us with
two ducks or goose signs, Egypt. s3,
which is Sasa.

    There are no hieroglyphs on Denderah Decan 36 except for the twelve stars seen in the images below.

   

    On Grand Temple Decan 29 the deity is called by the name of
Kha semsou khe en mou,
so the twelve stars in it represent
the word semsou, whereas as seen above
are the Denderah Zodiac twelve stars.

 

    From www.siloam.net/denderah it states "The twelve stars under the feet of Aquarius identify the restored awareness of cosmic human experience, which is Osiris, hidden in the path of the precession."    Siloam claims that Denderah Decan 35 is Aries 'the great rational being, signified by the large strutting ram the Great Shepherd" and Denderah Decan 36 is Cygnus, the swan or goose, and both are entitled together as "Rational Satisfaction."

 

    CYGNUS is connected with the goose or swan.

    Siloam denotes this as Satisfied with as in "with a Swan of satisfaction."

    Also see Cygnus, as to the image of a small chicken or goose, seen below the Eagle, Aquila, shown in the image below.

    Compared to Denderah Decan 36, there are no connections except for the goose.

 

    Grand Temple Decan 21 is a female figure in a full-length dress, and has two stars located above her scepter.

    Decan 21 is called by     Saouy seret, Sawey Seret, Sasa-sert, or Sasa seret, where we see
two ducks or goose signs, Egypt. s3,
next the door bolt sign, Egypt. s,
the mouth sign, Egypt. r,
and the bread loaf sign, t,
followed by a star.
    This reads [s3s3 s-r-t] or [sa-sa s-r-t].

    Sawey means "The Two Sons" in that Sa means "Sons and wey means "two."
    The word Seret is also seen on Grand Temple Decan 20, 21 and 22.    Seret means "Sheep" or "Ewe" (sr.t), whereas (sr "Ram").
    As seen on "http://home.main.rr.com/imyunnut/Den.Round.html" by Joanne Conman, "Sawey Seret" means "The Two Sons of Seret (Sheep)."    Seret is seen as the main name of Denderah Decan 1 (Grand Temple Decan 20).

 

    Of interest is that on Grand Temple Decan 29 which is named     Sasaqed, Sasaqet, Sasa qet, Sawy Qed, or Sawey Qed,
the first two are the duck sign, Egypt. s3,
then the next three signs mean Qed
    stilt sign, Egypt. q
    hand sign, Egypt. d
    a jar sign, Egypt. determinative,
which then ends with two stars,
then with three stars.
    Therefore seen as [sa-sa-qd].
    Sasa is also seen on Grand Temple Decan 21 and 29.
    Qed is also seen on Grand Temple Decan 28 and 29.

 

    Its deity is called     Douamoutef (Tuamutef), Qebehsenouef (Qebsennuf) a son of Horus.

 

    Associated with PEGASUS,
but it has stars
in Andromeda as [11] Alpheratz (Al Phiratz).

 

Select one of the following to open it.
Each of these are connected to the constellation Aquarius,
Venus, Pegasus, Cygnus, Piscis Austrinus.
Decan 35, Decan 36.
