Khery Heped Seret as depicted on the ceiling of the Dendera Temple on the Dendera D Zodiac

Khery Heped Seret is the 22nd decan of the main decanal stars of Egyptian astrology. The decan has its heliacal rise during the week of IV Peret 1-10 in the Egyptian calendar. Its name is translated as "under the hind part of the sheep."

Divination meaning

The Egyptian Star Oracle connects this decan with love and romance.

Characteristics

This decan can be used in ritual work to attract, keep, or improve a relationship with a man or a woman. Spell 379 from the Coffin Texts deals quite graphically with sex and the hind parts: “Your hinder parts are spread like the fat of an ox. Come to me, O Horus, bring your curved penis. May he come!”

The Dendera D zodiac ceiling depicts this decan as a winged serpent. Herodotus, the Greek historian known for his fanciful stories about real places and events, wrote about the menace of winged serpents in Egypt in his Histories II, written before 430 BC.

Dendera gives its minerals as glass and gold.
