Sekhemet

Sacmis or Sekhmet, in Egyptian mythology, is the goddess of vengeance, war and medicine of Ancient Egypt. The center of her cult was the city of Memphis. The Egyptian goddess is represented with the head of a lioness and has the heat of the sun as her main power. Spouse: Ptah Child(ren): Nefertem She was the goddess of war in Egypt, and was also one of the forms of the goddess Hathor. Her name, derived from sekhem, means powerful, and she was the daughter of Re. Re sent Hathor to devastate the world, because men were becoming too arrogant.

Sekhmet was seen as a warrior and a solar goddess, known for her strength and power to destroy enemies.

Sekhmet was considered the wife of Ptah and the mother of Nefertum, and was also seen as a manifestation of the goddess Hathor.

She was often depicted as a lioness or with a lioness's head and a human body, often dressed in red garments that suggested blood.

Sekhmet's cult center was in Memphis, and she was greatly venerated by osteopaths, who associated her with her protective and healing face.

In some versions, Ra (the sun god) sent Sekhmet to punish humanity for its disobedience, but she had to be restrained with wine, which the Egyptians believed looked like blood, according to the Mystic Cauldron website.
