Written by Deb St. George

Pharoh Tutankhaten ruled from 1333 BC - 1324 BC as the 12th pharaoh in the Eighteenth dynasty. Tutankhaten ("Living Image of the Aten" ) was King Tut's name when he was born. He became King around the age of eight years old and changed his name to King Tutankhamun ("Living Image of Amun") when he became eleven years old. Tutankhaten was thought to be the son of Akhenaten and his minor wife Kiya. Queen Kiya's title was "Greatly Beloved Wife of Akhenaten". In ancient times the Egyptian Royal blood line had to be preserved and so family intermarriage occured. Akhenaten's wife Ankhesenpaaten was thought to have been married first to her own father Akhenaten at the age of 12 years old. It is said that she bore a daughter in that first marriage and became the mother of the princess Ankhesenpaaten Tasherit. This was around the year of 1337 BC, Year 17 of King Tut's father's rule and Tutankhamun was 5 years old at the time. When King Tut's father died around 1334 BC, it is thought that King Tut's step brother, Smenkhkare became King. King Smenkhkare was around sixteen years of age and was married to Ankhesenpaaten who was fifteen years old. King Smenkhkare lived for about a year and then he too died. King Tut (8 years old) became king and married his step-sister Ankhesenpaaten (16 years old) around 1334 BC.

The ancient Egyptian mysteries of Sokar and Hu. |
|||
![]() Sokar was an ancient god who often took the form of a falcon. Sokar is often known as the god who gives new bodies to souls who wish to live again in the lower worlds. Sokar is often connected to the underworld (or lower worlds) frequently depicted in royal tombs in the Thebes area. As souls leave their bodies they were thought to be brought by Sokar into a henu barque where Sokar helped transport newly departed souls into new bodies. In the old Kingdom of MenNefer, they celebrated a festival in Sokar's honor. Workman went on holiday to celebrate with offerings to those deceased. People wore garlands of onions and celebrated late into the night paying tribute to Sokar and those that had passed over. In Thebes in a yearly celebration the image of Sokar was carried on a gilded boat. The festival celebrated Osiris' resurrection as Sokar. |
![]() Hu is the god of light and sound. Hu opens the path to the spiritual sound current that soul uses to soul travel into the higher worlds of light and sound. Hu's purpose is to help soul leave the lower world's physical bodies behind and
to travel into the higher spiritual worlds as a celestial light-being or as pure
spirit. |
