Description
THIS LISTING IS FOR A BASTET AND CAT ORGONITE SCULPTURES
Goddess Bastet/Bast. Guardian and Protectress
Bastet (Ubastat, perfumed protectress) Egyptian cat goddess, also known as Bast, when she was associated with the Sun and the lioness. Over the years, she also became known as Bastet, the cat Goddess who is also a Moon and Perfume Goddess. She is the Protector of the hearth and home, cats and other domesticated animals as well as women and children. She has the ability to transform into a fierce warrior when brought to anger. Cunning and lightning flash to action, she is a powerful protectress. As a creature of the night, She sees through the veil and is able to ward off evil spirits and she is especially known to ward off fire in the physical and metaphysical (She is the Patroness of firefighters).
She is also well known for her sensuality and love of music, dance and physical pleasure. She loves to see us enjoy life. She is a Goddess of perfume, as the hieroglyph that spells her name also spells the word, ‘bas jar’ ; the name of the container used to hold expensive oils and perfumes.
Orgone, like Prana and Chi, is the cosmic energy found throughout nature and in all living things. Made with resin and layered with precious metals and organic materials, Orgonite is a powerful way to tap into this life energy. Each of our Orgonite sculptures is a OOAK (one of a kind) sculpture made by Sergio using molds of Claudia’s clay sculptures from the “Sacred Mothers and Goddesses Collection”, each featuring stones and other materials related to each particular goddess and her personal symbol/talisman.
Each Orgonite sculpture is OOAK and has been created with copper, aluminum, Amethyst and Lapis Lazuli. Each Bastet sculpture comes with Bastet‘s Spirit Animal (Talisman, Totem), the Cat.
Copper
An important metal throughout all of mankind’s history, due to its softness and malleability. Used to create countless weapons and tools, it may have been the first metal human’s worked with.
Lapis lazuli
Found in select parts of the world, namely Afghanistan and Chile, and in parts of Myanmar, Siberia, and the United States of America. It has always been treasured for its beauty, especially in ancient Sumer, where it was used for cylinder seals, with depictions of gods and goddesses etched upon them.
Amethyst
Revered for its beauty, the Ancient Greeks would often wear amethyst for protection against magic and drunkenness. It was fundamentally linked to Dionysus, the god of wine, as wine was often served in amethyst cups and beakers.
