Mut - The Mother Goddess

Mut, which translates to "mother" in Egyptian, is a primordial goddess who wears two crowns on her head, one for Upper Egypt and the other for Lower Egypt.

As the other half of the sun god Amun and the mother of Khonsu, the moon deity, she took the place of the goddess Amaunet. She was revered as the cosmic mother by the Theban rulers. Amun merged with Hathor, the mother of Horus, to become Amun-Ra (wife of Ra). As a result, she gained the moniker "The Eye of Ra," guarding the deity on his ascent through the heavens. She eventually became a part of Ennead.

Mut was shown as a woman wearing a vulture headdress with the crowns of both Upper and Lower Egypt on its top. She appears to be wearing a red or blue outfit. She occasionally appeared with the head of a cobra or lioness.

For more than 2000 years, the religious center was Iseru, her sanctuary at Thebes. She finished the Triad of Waset along with Amun and their kid, Khonsu.

She was referred to as the mother of the universe and came from the Nile delta. She was connected to numerous gods and goddesses and was well known as the goddess of creation. therefore depicted as a hybrid god. She is therefore sometimes referred to as the World Mother and the Lady of Heaven. The very word "Mut" connotes mother.
