Bastet was a popular deity in Ancient Osirion,
worshiped as a goddess of cats and a deity of
celebration, pleasure, and secrets. While her sister
Hathor is a goddess of love, Bastet is one of desire
and sensuality. She also guards against contagious
diseases, evil spirits, and snakes , and is associated
with protective ointments and perfumes. A
beautiful woman with the head of a cat, Bastet is
often depicted holding a rattle-like sistrum-a
musical instrument associated with her
worship-and a small shield called an
aegis, usually decorated with the
head of a lion, as a symbol of her
protective role.
Bastet is the daughter of Ra, and the sister of Hathor, Maat, and Sekhmet. Normally indolent and relaxed, Bastet can be fierce when roused to anger, and she has often faced off against the great serpent Apep on behalf of Ra. A promiscuous goddess, Bastet has no mate, but numerous stories detail her liaisons with other deities.
Let the stirrings inside you forth, live life to the fullest, and when roused to anger, fight!
Bastet is a popular goddess among bards and women of all classes, and she is the patron of spies, rogues , and thieves. Most of her clerics are women, though men are welcome in the priesthood, and both genders work as sacred prostitutes in Bastet's temples, which host elaborate festivals, replete with dancing, drinking, and revelry. Devotees of Bastet often keep cats as pets, and these sacred animals are reverently mummified and buried alongside their masters upon death.
Alignment: CN goddess of cats, pleasure, and secrets.
Weapon: cat's claws (tekko-kagi)
Symbol: Golden cat, cat mask.
Animal: Cat.
