Of all mythos and mythological deities throughout history, the one I find most interesting is the solar deity Sekhmet, the "Mistress of Dread", "She Who Mauls", the "Lady of Slaughter", and "The One Whom Evil Fears". She was the warrior goddess, as well as the goddess of healing and plagues of the Egyptians in the twelfth dynasty and the protector of [i]Ma'at[/i], or cosmic order and balance. She has inspired several of my writings based upon my studies into her and she is by far one of the most fascinating personifications of the lion.
