Thank yooouuuu 💚
It's so hard to find good, accurate videos on heka and I absolutely loved this one!
Excellent job ✨

[roughpeace]

I really appreciate how you emphasize the impact of context in a digestible way. I just found your channel and I’m absolutely loving this accessible academic content. Very factual but also lots of wisdom. Thank you so much for making these videos :)

The metaphor you used regarding how differing preconseived beliefs are the scaffolding for how something is perceived.. and how those biases can change the understanding of something.. well.. that was a brilliantly executed setup for introducing a new concept that would have otherwise been difficult to seperate from other modern or popular forms of magic. your a very effective teacher of obscure and interesting practices! 💃

Very cute blouse. Love the egyptian lore. Thank you Angela for creating a space on youtube for this discourse.

A great video about a fascinating idea. Thanks for posting this.

Your insight into the truth about, not only this foundation of eqytian magick, but all systems and aspects that I've seen you explain. Your way of explaining these concepts, in my opinion is incredible. My dear to me you are the golden goose, a true sister of Sophia . It's not hard to see you are very gifted as a teacher, and your academic knowledge of this art so dear to my heart makes me grateful there is you to have gifts of light perfect for my level of understanding because I am submerged in the study of these sciences and like you i deal with facts and not tradition for the sake of tradition, but for the purest pursuit of veritas.
Thank you for another one of your amazing videos. -- Luke

That was one HEKA video! You put a HEKA lot of info, in a HEKA short amount of time. I'm wearing out my welcome, so I'll get the HEKA out of here.

We are the products of Heka... love your channel.... Beautiful video!

[nevahdj]

Your shirt is pretty awesome. Another great video, good job!

[duantorruellas]

Yes the eqytian magick here with heka, seems to shares many aspects of gnosticism . Wow you explained that beautifully .
Building the body based on the shape of the energy of the soul wow, you got my imagination going overtime . Thx Angela.
I'm thinking about the logos and it's possible power over symatics.

Great video! Very interesting. T-shirt is great too. :) In my own experience I've always felt a strong distinction between what people like Franz Bardon and the Russian Freemason and Martinist GO Mebes might describe as Sacred Magic and Personal Magic. Personal Magic coming from the ego for material desires and Sacred Magic connecting with the divine. I like this quote from Israel Regardie from The Tree of Life:
"The higher Magic, as has been shown, has as one of its
objectives a communion both here and hereafter with the
divine, a union not to be achieved by mere doctrine and sterile intellectual speculations, but by the exercise of other more
spiritual faculties and powers in rites and ceremonies."
But we can say anything projective is magical, in a sense. Speech itself is a magical act, so I think awareness is always important. :)

This is such a great topic! TBH, I could listen to you talk about anything though 😄 All the animations and editing here are top shelf, btw. Your videos are getting consistently better and they were already great ✌️🙂

[NOISEONOMICON]

as always, an interesting video! hugs from Ecuador!

In the Dungeons and Dragons game (and other role-playing games of the genre), wizards/mages draw power by manipulating magical energy, while priests get power from the god they serve. Wizards grow more powerful as a result of their personal study and practice. Priests become more powerful by greater devotion and favor from their god.

In the original version of DnD, priest spells were mostly limited to healing and such, and were only allowed to use blunt weapons. Later editions allowed for greater customization of spells and weapons based on what god the priest served.

I really enjoyed this one, I just started watching your channel I enjoy it tremendously. I like that you cover all topics, of course this is your field of expertise you need to cover it all. I did a reworking of the Rosy cross in the four corners of the square I use the words Heka, Kintala, Maat. Magic, Order, Balance. instead of Ararita.I find it begins my working on that note.... I pretty much have reworked many rituals for me, the lesser banishing of the pentagram. And the star ruby. I don't think anything is ever set in stone that it cannot be adapted for your own, I think they become more powerful when you take ownership.

Great video, I'm currently reading The sacred Magic of Ancient Egypt by Rosemary Clark. Angela thank you again for your educational videos. Peace Profound.

[kerryboston]

I love the video Angela! I learned a lot.
And as always, I SMASHED the Like button.
You should too!

If I'm to understand, magic in Egypt is kind of like "Chi" in Chinese Kung Fu. An energy that comes from with in or soraunds us. Or in modern terms "The Force" in star wars.

[nelsongalvan]

The most interesting thing I find about the Egyptians is their belief in the afterlife. Does "Heka" play a part in this?
