Horus

哈哈哈

Horus was the Egyptian god of light, the son of Osiris and Isis. He was regarded as the rising sun, born afresh daily and the symbol of renewed life. In cultures that practiced magic eyes were the symbol of great importance. The ability to see enables to experience and explore the surrounding world and interact with it. In ancient cultures stars especially the sun and the moon were called the eyes of heaven. The sun was the face or eye of Indian solar deity Surja, the eye of German deity Odin or Iranian deity Ahuramazda. The right eye of Egyptian God Horus represents the sun, left eye the moon. In The “Book of the Dead” (around 1500 B.C.) which is a collection of spells which enable the soul of the deceased to navigate the afterlife, it is written: the eye of god Horus gives eternal life and protects me when it is closed”. The eye of god Horus became the symbol of the power of healing and revival. It was believed that a talisman representing the eye of Horus has the power to protect from charm and therefore was used by witch doctors for healing session and during funeral ceremonies.

荷鲁斯是埃及的光之神，奥西里斯和伊西斯的儿子。他被视为冉冉升起的太阳，每天重生，是重生的象征。在实行魔法的文化中，眼睛是非常重要的象征。视觉能力使我们能够体验和探索周围的世界并与之互动。在古代文化中，星星特别是太阳和月亮被称为天堂之眼。太阳是印度太阳神 Surja 的脸或眼睛，德国神 Odin 或伊朗神 Ahuramazda 的眼睛。埃及神荷鲁斯的右眼代表太阳，左眼代表月亮。在“死者之书”（公元前 1500 年左右）是一组使死者的灵魂能够驾驭来世的咒语中，它写道：上帝荷鲁斯的眼睛给予永恒的生命，并在关闭时保护我”。荷鲁斯之眼成为治愈和复兴力量的象征。人们相信代表荷鲁斯之眼的护身符具有保护魅力的能力，因此被巫医用于治疗和葬礼。

I know that the Book of the Dead is usually hidden in the dark compartment on the sole of the statue of Osiris, the ghost god, and then placed in the tomb.
