Sawy Seret
Sawy Seret is the 21st decan of the main decanal stars of Egyptian astrology. The decan has its heliacal rise during the week of III Peret 21-30 in the Egyptian calendar. Its name is translated as "children of the sheep."
Divination meaning
The Egyptian Star Oracle connects this decan with healing.
Characteristics
Spell 246 from the Pyramid Texts proclaims that the deceased is a child of the sheep with the power of the Sheep decans: “You stand among the gods, with two horns on your head like two wild bulls, for you are indeed the black ram, son of a black sheep, born of a bright sheep, suckled by four sheep-mothers.” For healing rituals calling upon Amenhotep, this card should be used together with Pehuy Djat (#5), which has actual tomb art depicting the deified pharaoh.
The Dendera D zodiac ceiling depicts this decan as a seated lion-headed god. The same ceiling gives its minerals as carnelian and gold.
