Today is the eve of the Ancient Egyptian Epagomenal days of celebration, which celebrated the birthdays of their five major Deities. The celebrations traditionally began on the day before and is usually thought to be Tuesday 26th July, although some sources say it was 13th July. The following days marked the birthdays of the five children of the Egyptian Deity Nut.  

According to myth, Tehuti (Thoth) enabled Nut to give birth to her five children Asar (Osiris) 27 July, Set (29th July) Aset (Isis) 30th July, Heru (Horus the elder) and Nebt-het (Nephthys) 31st July, by using his cunning to win a game of draughts with the moon. By winning a seventy second part of the moon's light, he managed to create five extra days (the Epagomenal days), which allowed Nut to give birth to her five children without breaking Ra's decree that her children could not be born on any existing calendar day.

This myth more than any other is responsible for Tehuti (Thoth)'s role as a lunar deity

The exact correlation of the Egyptian New year to the modern calendar is disputed, but I favour the linking with the heliacal rising of Sirius (dawn visibility of Sirius) as this star, known to the Egyptians as Sopdet (pronounced Soppday) was closely associated with Isis (originally known as Aset). 

Being dates of powerful Egyptian Energies these may prove ideal days for an Egyptian Energy Reyad Sekh Em 1-2-1 healing session with my friend Joanna Bristow Watkins of www.harmonyhealing.co.uk whom I thank for this informaton.
