Seshat: Goddess of Astronomy Aligned Sacred Monuments To The Stars Long Before Imhotep

Ellen Lloyd – AncientPages.com – Known for her extensive knowledge of astronomy, the Lady of the Stars, the goddess Seshat, played a vital role in the construction of sacred Egyptian buildings. She assisted the pharaoh in the Stretching of the Cord ritual, aligning sacred monuments with the stars. This mysterious ritual dates back to ancient times and was performed by Egyptian priests long before Imhotep built the Sakkara pyramid.

Imhotep was renowned for his intelligence and wisdom. Known as “he who comes in peace,” he was an ancient Egyptian genius and the architect of the world’s first monumental stone building, the Step Pyramid at Sakkara. There is no doubt that Imhotep was a mastermind; yet, it remains unknown from whom he acquired his vast knowledge of astronomy and stone masonry.

One possibility is that Imhotep was a member of the mysterious Shemsu Hor, followers of Horus. The Shemsu Hor were semi-divine kings in predynastic Egypt.

Seshat was also known as the Lady of Builders and the patron of sacred books and libraries. As a divine timekeeper, she recorded calendar events by observing the cycles of the stars. Much of her knowledge was considered so sacred that it was never shared beyond the highest professionals, such as architects and certain scribes.
