  A workbook of ancient Egyptian rituals from experts in the field. Providing an insight into the mysteries of the ancient Egyptian world, this book presents eight seasonal rites for performance at the solstices, equinoxes and cross-quarter days. These rites are composed entirely of ancient Egyptian religious texts, some as much as 4,300 years old. Made accessible to a modern readership, they provide a fascinating insight into the mysteries of the ancient Egyptian world. The text includes: an introduction to and explanation of each rite; rites that are ideal for Pagans who may not have a temple; rites that may be performed at home; a general overview of ancient Egyptian religious and magical beliefs; and a glossary of the deities' names and Egyptian terms.
