Festival of Sokari

Festival of Sokari

Earth festivals have regularly been celebrated since the times of the Pharaohs to commemorate the birthdays of the Gods as festivals of Sokari. The Earth Festival has been celebrated since the period that the thirteenth month was added to the calendar as a perfection of the astronomical calculations, giving the correct year or medium year length of 1461 days. These calculations are based on the Sidereal declination of the Sothis or Sirius star in the constellation of Orion and the Sun. These calculations imply a small year, or year of the season cycles, with a period of 365 days and a quarter. Modern science, in a sort of guess and led mostly by ideology and strong will for cultural cooperation, has simply fabricated explanations of a year based on the revolution of the Earth around the Sun, knowing that one has to wait for more than 57 years to see two similar positions in relation to the sun. 

In the documents that have survived the destruction by those who said they would like to build a new civilization on top of the ruins of the knowledge that has enlightened the world, one can find a papyrus called “The Book of the Five Days of the Year”. This book teaches about astronomical knowledge, but from purely spiritual, metaphysical and cosmogonic angles. 

The Great God Ra placed the Goddess Nout and Geb together after he had created them, and when he was busy creating by his words the rest of the universe, he found that the Goddess Nout and the God Geb were making love. The Great Creator God was angered to see the rush in which the Goddess was trying to give birth. Let’s notice that in this period, the year was only composed of twelve months of thirty days, which is 360 days. Ra then decided to punish the Goddess Nout and this punishment was formulated in this way: From now on this is your destiny, for that you have only listened to your heart, I forbid you to give birth in the night or day during the whole 360 days of the year.” The Goddess Nout became very unhappy with the idea that, because of her lack of patience, her destiny will be reduced to a Goddess that is incapable of giving birth. She went to see the Ennead, the committee of nine Gods, guarantors and managers of the stability of the universe. These Gods felt pity for her and decided to create and add five other days to the year in which she could give birth to Wsr (Osiris) the first day, Haroeris (Horus the Great) the second day, Seth the third day, Aseta (Isis) the fourth day, Nefissa (Nephtys) the fifth day, and every four years, a day of renewing the divine pact, and this day was called World Renewal Day. 

This history is not simply to distract, it is a spiritual text containing astronomical knowledge. This text is not to be compared with any other text produced by modern civilizations. It is the astronomy presented by those who have introduced it to humanity, those who have invented all the scientific disciplines of history, geography, and writing. 

Let’s reconcile with history. Let’s reconcile with the cosmic cycles. Let’s celebrate the birthdays of the Gods.
