Magic had a practical purpose in Egyptian civilization. Magic was the way by which one extended and eased life, relieved physical and emotional pain, generally advanced well-being and benefited society. The ancients saw magic as a creative force that bound spirit and matter together. Magicians sought the thread of spirit that connected to any actual object or condition and then addressed intervening energies to that connection. There are two main Egyptian Traditions that are practised today, Kemectic and Tameran. Kemetic: This is an attempt to practise the religion exactly as it was practised in antiquity. Named for the most common native name for Egypt, KMT or Kemet Tameran: Any number of modern traditions based as least in part on the ancient religion. Named for a common native name for Egypt, Ta-Mri or Tamera, this term was first applied to Wiccan use of the Tameran deities. |
