22.THE GODDESS AND THE EGYPTIAN MYSTERIES THE PATH OF THE GODDESS THE GODDESS PATH The Secret Forms of the Goddess and the Rituals of Resurrection The Supreme Being may be worshipped as father or as mother. Ushet Rekhat or Mother Worship, is the spiritual process of worshipping the Divine in the form of the Divine Goddess. It celebrates the most important forms of the Goddess including Nathor, Maat, Aset, Arat, Amentet and Hathor and explores their mystical meaning as well as the rising of Sirius, the star of Aset (Aset) and the new birth of Hor (Heru). The end of the year is a time of reckoning, reflection and engendering a new or renewed positive movement toward attaining spiritual Enlightenment. The Mother Worship devotional meditation ritual, performed on five days during the month of December and on New Year's Eve, is based on the Ushet Rekhit. During the ceremony, the cosmic forces, symbolized by Sirius - and the constellation of Orion ---, are harnessed through the understanding and devotional attitude of the participant. This propitiation draws the light of wisdom and health to all those who share in the ritual, leading to prosperity and wisdom.

5.0 out of 5 stars Quick and Easy Spirituality Based on Egyptian Mysticism
Reviewed in the United States on October 16, 2007
As usual for Muata Ashby's books, this one changes its title very frequently. (I have read the 2001 edition.) It has been known as of yet as "Mysticism of Ushet Rekhat. Worship of the Goddess", "Mysticism of the Ancient Egyptian Goddess: Goddess Worship and Rituals of Enlightenment", "The Goddess Path: [The] Secret Forms of the Goddess and the Ritual of Resurrection" and "African Religion Vol. 5: The Goddess and the Ancient Egyptian Mysteries". In other words, the inclusion as the current last volume in the artificial African Religion series is a belated one. Clearly, it was not intended as such. For one thing, the format is much smaller and thinner and it has been published originally BEFORE volumes 1, 2 and 4. For another, that series is designed to be on the main city-based religion branches of ancient Egypt. The Goddess cult does qualify in principle, but this special city is NOT even really mentioned "yet" in this early book.

The very premise of the book is a bit awkward, considering that all deities (who are the ONE) of ancient Egypgt are "androgynous", to use the word of a more modern concept provided in the book. As such, the Goddess may be depicted with an erection here and there, for example. Clearly, the author hasn't REALLY solved the paradox of genders not existing, yet saying everyone (and everything) comprises both. Actually, to write a book specifically on the female part of ancient Egyptian religion is indulging in the belief of the construct of genders, qualifying it as a work of separation, which very literally means "sexism". Thus, this book(let) is defeating its cause. Yet, the spirit of the book had the opposite in mind. (I would like to mention, though that some of Muata Ashby's books are rather sexist, such as  Egyptian Yoga Vol. 1:: The Philosophy of Enlightenment .)

It is a bit difficult to rate this book in context of my rating of his other works. This one IS repetitive, unsurprisingly, but not as intense as usual. I do not agree 100% with the author, yet, he is much more balanced than in other (later!?) books. He is actually lobbying for a balance in the indulging of such things as entertainment, work, fun, emotions etc. and advises to "avoid extreme people". He even includes a sex-POSITIVE quote of ancient Egypt, for once, by Ra as the creator: "...and I have made the joys of love (love-making) to exist." Usually its about sublimating/avoiding sexuality only.

The book features a parable of Hetheru and Djehuti and the Story of Ra and Aset. The author interprets them (and the usual Asar-Aset-Heru-Set/Osiris-Isis-Horus-Seth story in the abridged version) and explains the many Goddesses facets of the one Goddess (who in turn is part of the One Supreme Being). At the end, a practical meditation/prayer is provided. I give this book 4.5 stars. If you want to look up the first volume:  African Religion Vol. 1, Anunian Theology and the Philosophy of Ra .

5.0 out of 5 stars The FEMALE Factor
Reviewed in the United States on July 30, 2006
Dr Ashby gives the reader a good education of the Gods and Goddesses patheon of Egypt. Part 1111 Rekhat: The Mother Worship Ritual is a ritual that the reader can easily become an active participant. Dr. Ashby also makes the reader cognizant of the Female Principle or Divine Feminine which precepts go well beyond Egypt. Precepts much needed in the patriarchal run societies of today.

Took a little (not excessive) time to come but truly informative and well worth the wait. A good purchase. I would buy the author's other titles based on the material covered in this book.
