The Ogdoad Arrangement and the Osirian Creation

Kauket was boundless darkness Kuk was limitless light Vibratory foundation Perpetual and undefined Swelling from their wedlock: The oceans of Nunet Shifting yet inactive A cell of consciousness Within abysmal Nun From inmost depth One became Two Hauhet was the first reflection Huh was eternity of space Positive oscillation Cosmic ideation dissipates Birthed from cataclysm Amunet the unseen Negative torrent of time Amun – the concealed serpent Crowned! He who joined the gods with his shadow Ogdoad – the primeval eight Affixed! From their condensed mass arose the egg Fertilized by the Snake As Khepera I came Few gods were born Ophidian array With will and words of power I induced the elemental nature In union with myself My fluids waxed as gods and creatures Tefnut – moisture as material Pervades! Drafts of Shu and Geb as the black earth Thus from primeval matter I assumed the avatar of Ausar Life and death defined My Ba is the Lord of the Pillar!
