About
Welcome to TTR!
This blog is run by a human on the planet earth that goes by Devo. I’ve been recounting my learning and adventures within Kemeticism and paganism for the past decade on this blog. When I first started on this path, I focused heavily on the gods, specifically Set and Osiris, and I have spent many years working to understand their teachings. I then began to develop interest and capability in spirit work, and spent a lot of time learning about the Unseen and its way of interweaving into the physical.
I’ve undergone a lot of “stuff” recently that has caused a huge shift in my perceptions of the world and religion; as such I’ve become something of an atheist and have spent most of my time focusing on theological concepts within Kemeticism and their effects on the physical world.
My practice has changed in many ways since I first started this blog, so you may find that older posts sound very different from my newer work. I’m sure if you flip through the eras, you’re bound to find something of interest!
If you have any questions, you are always welcome to drop a comment on this blog, send a message to my Tumblr ask box, or send me an email at devottr |at| gmail |dot| com. I will do my best to answer 🙂

Woah! Hey! 😀 I’m glad to see you’re on WP – I still check out your LJ, but now I don’t have to make the extra trip. 😉

Hello there! I was wondering if I have your permission to put a link to your blog on mine. I am compiling a short list of blogs I find helpful/insightful, and I would like to have yours there! Of course, if you would prefer that I not do this, I understand! Though I consider myself new to the Kemetic community, I definitely see you as a large asset to it. Your posts here and on TC have really helped me. Thanks!

Heya! I wanted to answer your question regarding which blog to use on the Kemetic Round Table project. I apologize for commenting here rather than in the proper thread, however, when trying to comment, for whatever reason the Intense Discussion interface is giving me fits and not letting me comment – at least here at home. I will be using http://www.fannyfae.com – Excavating Our Souls From the Ruins. ::)

This may seem a bit random but… is it possible to be Kemetic, without being orthodox?

(I ask because in some of your posts you mention KO as if you weren’t a part of it)

Yep 🙂
Kemetic Orthodoxy is but one organization that approaches the Kemetic faith. It’s entirely possible to be Kemetic, and not be a member of Kemetic Orthodoxy (or a full “convert” into Kemetic Orthodoxy).

Hi Devo, whilst I don’t know much about Kemeticism or Shinto I’ve enjoyed your posts on connecting with land spirits- so important on all pagan paths whatever the tradition or deities.

Hello, My names Wishful (not really?) and I have been a bit of fan of your blog as well as “The Rose Bell”. In fact I was using The Rose Bell for a good book list, but it seems that blog has been deleted. It brings me deep sorrow to be unable to access such a useful archive of information, especially of good book reads. I was wondering if you have any idea how I can find The Rose Bell book list, pieces of his blog or even how to contact him. Thank you ( I accidentally posted in the wrong section before this)

They pretty much stopped talking to me a few years ago and cut all contact with me, so I don’t really know where she went. I know she’s got an art blog over on tumblr, but I forget the URL. If you wanted to get in contact with her, you’d be better off reaching out to her friend, Duskenpath, who would probably know better than I do where she’s at.

Oh, well thanks for your help. I will probably be able to contact her then. Thanks a ton! And please never delete your blog unless your absolutely certain of it, because I find old posts very useful.

I’m starting up my own Kemetic blog and would like your permission to link and reference you and your work. It’s been an amazing guideline to get me started and I’d like to expand together upon this work.

You don’t know me, and it’s not important, but I’ve been following your blog for several years and your insights continue to be helpful to me. Thank you.
