Prince KhaemwasetIt's just past midnight, so here we go with a new Magic Monday. The picture is of Khaemwaset, the fourth son of the pharaoh Ramses II. Unlike his older brothers, who took up military careers, he entered the priesthood and became famous for his scholarship, his restoration of historic tombs and temples, and his mastery of magic -- so much so that stories of his occult exploits were still being told a thousand years later, and have been preserved in two documents dating from well after the Greek conquest of Egypt. Under the name "Setne Khamuast" -- the closest translation of his religious title and name yet available in the early 20th century -- he was an important figure in the legendary history of Dion Fortune's Fraternity (now Society) of the Inner Light. 

Ask me anything about occultism and I'll do my best to answer it. Any question received by midnight Monday Eastern time will get an answer. If you're in a hurry, or suspect you may be the 143,916th person to ask a question, please check out the very rough version 1.0 of The Magic Monday FAQ here.

I've had several people ask about tipping me for answers here, and though I certainly don't require that I won't turn it down. You can use the button below to access my online tip jar. If you're interested in political and economic astrology, or simply prefer to use a subscription service to support your favorite authors, you can find my Patreon page here and my SubscribeStar page here

With that said, have at it!

***This Magic Monday is now closed -- and yes, this means you. See you next week!***  

Fish Goddess?

Dear JMG,
My husband, who does not practice magic, had an interesting magical dream recently. He was travelling by many different means in the dream and at the end was walking along a highway when two young women approached him and asked him to have a drink with them. One of the young women was human and the other human shaped but with the eyes and features of a fish. He said she was beautiful but not sexy. He shirt and trousers appeared to be made of nets. She offered him a glass of wine and a long cracker. Sensing this was a communion ritual, he demurred and woke himself up.

I had a look on the internet for a Goddess of this description. I didn't find anything. Does anyone here know who she might be?

Thanks, Maxine

There is a possibility the fish woman was a Typhonic being. Sri Rohit Arya has an entire talk on Youtube about such beings. Typhonic Beings are a class of spiritually higher beings who sometimes aid humans spiritually. Chiron was one such being. Many of the Egyptian animal looking deities (Thoth, Bastet, etc) are of this class. Hanuman (the "monkey god') of India is also of this class.

Surprising to me is that Sri Rohit Arya says Patanjali was also a re-incarnated Typhonic being as were his two assistants.

Side note: Patanjali's name translates as 'fallen into the open hand' because his mother prayed with open hands for a son and that son ended up being Patanjali. In their (Patanjali and his assistants) prior Typhonic incarnation they were human looking in every way except for being (and I quote) "tiger-eyed and tiger-pawed".


Having said that - just as not all humans are good-willed or can be deceitful - not all supposedly-spiritual-beings are as they appear so doing things like JMG teaches (or other teachers) for protection (ex: Sphere of Protection and Banishings) is always a good thing to do.


p.s. It's my belief - because of Sri Rohit Arya's talk about how far along Typhonic Beings Spiritual-Plane-wise are that they belong to Dion Fortune's second category - Lords of Form. Sri Rohit's talk makes it very clear that Typhonic Beings are clearly beyond our Material Plane.

I looked up Rohit Arya's channel.

I don't recall mention of Typhonic beings in his (interesting[*]) series on Devas.
Did I overlook something in this series, or is there a specific video on just this class of being?

[*] as in, the technology of deliberate deva creation has Unfortunate Implications if it gets leaked the same way Western magic has...

Well, the first name to come to my mind *would have* been Dagon, but goddess rules that out unless He's had a sex change. (Which I'm not entirely comfortable ruling out, mind - there are a decent number of fish that change sex, and there's a couple of trends involving converting things into cute girls where I wouldn't be shocked if there was higher-level influence in addition to mundane causes (on top of the recent prominence of trans issues, there's parts of Japan going all-in on converting everything into a cute girl) - but wouldn't be my first guess.)

It's possible, though by no means certain, that one of the rising deities of this era (not sure whether they're a new pantheon or an old one I can't place, but suspect the former) has mermaid/fish associations; one character I'm keeping an eye on for backing from the divine level has those associations, and one of my old radar sites on the conspiracy fringe has been going off on mermaids/sirens for years now. So that might be what's going on. (Did the fish-goddess in question have blue hair? And does your husband remember the hair color of the other girl?)

Otherwise, I have no idea.

Hi,
I asked my husband and he can't say what colour their hair was but I suspect this is the usual male lack of picking up details. I asked if either might have had odd-coloured hair such as blue or green but he couldn't say.
