Ancient Egypt
My spiritual affinity for Anubis is just an instinctive recognition of a symbol that didn’t die, just transformed. We are all dealing with the same spiritual forces. If you want to reduce the spirit world to cellular memory and to the collective unconscious, or see a connection between that and actual activities in the world which do in fact impact epigenetic development, it is up to you. The gods live. All the modern rationalistic thought hasn’t abolished subconscious influence. All the scientific understanding has not changed our fundamental connection to nature. Give a spiritual force whatever face you want.
In modern reckoning, as popularly depicted in movies like the Mothman Prophecy, when the spirits are questioned about what they “look like”, the answer is and always will be the same. “Depends on who’s looking.”
“Those who gave thee a body, furnished it with weakness; but He who gave thee Soul, armed thee with resolution. Employ it, and thou art wise; be wise and thou art happy.” Akhenaton (King of Egypt, 14th century BC)
