Osiris and Mastery of the Mind

The Breakdown

Let’s talk about jealousy. It’s a nasty color on anyone, even a god.

Set couldn’t handle Asuar’s (Osiris) swagger. The man was assured, grounded, and confident, so Set did what insecure cowards do: he tore him apart. Literally. He scattered Asuar’s pieces all along the Nile.

Now, don’t get distracted by the geography. The Nile here isn’t just water; it’s the subconscious. That murky, deep mess inside your head. Asuar’s scattered body parts? Those are your mental fragments when you’re falling apart.

The Missing Piece

When they tried to put the man back together, one crucial piece was missing: the phallus. His manhood. The drive.

Enter Auset (Isis). She is the real hero of this story. She didn’t just mourn him; she got to work. She realized the physical piece was gone, so she fashioned him a new one.

This is what love looks like. Not the Hallmark card fluff, but the gritty, “I see who you are” kind of love. Whether it comes from a partner or from deep inside yourself, that love reminded Asuar of his greatness. She rebuilt his confidence from scratch.

The Descent

Once he was whole, Asuar didn’t go back to the palace. He went to the underworld.

We call this the “dark night of the soul.” It’s that moment at 3:00 AM when you’re staring at the ceiling, facing your absolute lowest self. It’s hell.

But here’s the twist: Asuar didn’t just survive the underworld; he took it over. He rose as the netjer of resurrection. He became King of the Underworld not because he died, but because he mastered the darkness.

The Verdict

Set thought he was destroying Asuar. In reality, he was just the friction.

Set was the necessary obstacle that forced Asuar to stop coasting and start conquering. You don’t become a king by sitting in the sun. You become a king by walking through hell and coming out the other side with a grin.
