sexual attraction FROM a deity?

[aluokaloo]

I first met Taliesin not too long agowhen I went out too greet Him, he took me on a wild and crazy shapeshifting run! He took my hand, and we became wolves, as I followed Him, we shapeshifted into rabbis, then ducks, crows, stags, and boars. By the time it was done, He turned around and kissed me much to my amazement! Before walking into a bare tree and dissappearing, a few days ago, I felt His presence hovering over me and I sort of saw Him. He was coming down to kiss me again, and I felt an enormous amount of sexual energy coming from Him..I was feeling pretty crappy about myself that day, and told Him, that I wasn't really fit for Him. I got a flirtatious wink, and He left me to my book. Has anyone ever had a deity, well besideslove deities come down to "play"?

[aluokaloo]

besides that I can't help but wonder can you cheat on a human partnern with a God?:)

[Sage Rainsong]

I was readin an article in New Witch magazine a while back about females witch male patrons, and many of them reported that sort of thing. Apparently it is more common one would think.

Wow!really? I mean I could understand if it was a deity of love, like Aphrodite, or something but well...wow!

I believe that the author had that experience with Odin.

[Autumn-Forest]

This is really fasicinating! I'd say yes you can cheat on your human partner with a God or Goddess. But I am intolerant of cheaters, ha! :)

Your encounter is truly fascinating! :)

[Childof_theMorrigan]

I've had a sort of similar experience.. the first time I met Pan he wrapped me up in his arms and I felt not only comfort and complete safety but a sexual electric charge that pulsated through his body into mine... but of course... thats Pan to me

[MoonDragn]

I had some interesting experiences with a female diety in a dream. The question is, is this just a dream? or something more?

[Malcolm]

I believe that the author had that experience with Odin.

Thats not surprising really...Odin, always has had a soft spot for the ladies.

[Xentor]

I haven't had such an experience myself, but I wouldn't be surprised if many people had.

One of the well known gods who tended to interact sexually with human women is the Greek god Zeus. He'd take up a swan-like appearance, for instance, to entice Leda.

http://www.loggia.com/myth/leda.html

And Zeus' son Hercules and daughter Semele also the result of an encounter with a human woman, Alcmene. For this encounter Zeus disguised himself as Alcmene's husband, Amphitryon.

[Brightshores]

I'm really glad your post came up, actually - I had a really interesting dream a few weeks ago kind of along these lines, and it's been on my mind since. I was with someone who I'm sure was a deity of some sort. He looked like a man, but was somehow "greater" than human. He was, without a doubt, the most beautiful man I'd ever seen. He had chin-length, wavy brown hair, was clean-shaven, was fairly average in size, but had these incredibly intense eyes. He looked at me with eyes filled with endless love and understanding, and then I woke up.

I have no idea who He is, and don't really know how to find out, although I would love to know.

[Morr]

While the Orisha Eshu is not a Deity per-se, he is DEFINITLY sending all sorts of sexual messages to me.

He watches me take a shower EVERY single night.

This started as watching me while I sleep (at semi's house).

Then tagging along and watching me shower.

I left him a cigarette in thanks for listening to a request I've made to him last night, and as the cigarette burned, instead of falling apart on the ashtray, the ashes stayed in tact and rose up. Like an erect penis (I swear this happened, I was sitting there watching it in dismay).


So, yeah. I know what ya'll mean :lol:

[Arion]

Oh wow, I've never had such vivid experiences with my deities, but I definitely think it is possible.

[David19]

I know what you mean, i think it's really possible, but i wish i had just some of the interesting experiences people here have had with deities.

[~Elise~]

Ohh-la-la--yes it has happened to me... with both female and male deities.

Hard to beat sex with Deity. Gwyn ap Nud, Krom, Star Goddess... Feri isn't called an ecstatic path for nothing... oh my! Is it getting warm in here?

Hasn't happened since Rick came into my life, so I don't have to worry about the cheating thing.


Elise

[WiccanGoddess]

Quite a nifty little situation, but I can somewhat see the issue. Feeling sexual desire and heat from a called upon Diety. Been there. Done that. Never happened again.

[StephanieAine]

Wh- wh- what?

Okay, so let me get this straight:

*Beings* - meaning otherworldly, supernatural, invisible, not-ordinary-living-people - *manifested themselves* in a *physical, solid sense*... just like a solid human being... solid and physical enough that if they stood beside a normal human being, both would be just as physical and solid, and anyone walking by could look and see two "people" standing together, when actually one of those "people" would be... for example... Taliesin or Brighid or Lugh or something... except in totally "normal" form.

Am I right about that part?

And so - these "beings" of whatever kind... they've had flirtations, physical playing around and/or sexual relations with you?

REAL sexual relations... REAL kisses with real mouths... real, solid, physical, not figurative speech but a literal experience?

If so - I am having trouble wrapping my mind around that, because it sounds like the way people would talk about ordinary encounters with ordinary people. Where's the part about screaming in horror upon realizing that some invisible being is suddenly right there and they're getting frisky with you? Where's the part where you think you're nuts because such things don't happen to people?

Or is this just like the thing I read about people doing in 'pathworking' - basically imaginging something but believing it actually occurred on a different plane of existence?

I can't wait to hear about this.

[Little Billy]

we shapeshifted into rabbis,

Oy.

[Pesha]

I've had similar experiences. But have to say I did not like it much. I prefer a real human male to diety. That may soud odd and off to some, but I like to be asked and the last two times this happened it felt like a rape. Sighs, well it can't be all good then can it.

Depends on what your definition of "real" is. Gods exist in a different kind of reality than we do, it isn't like they take physical form and get in on with humans like that. It is partly physical, but mostly the experience would occur on a spiritual level, probably while the person was in a trance state in which a person is more aware of non-physical realms.

Saying people "imagined" it isn't right, it is a perfectly real experience between a person and a deity.

[HetHert]

I have, and it doesn't count as cheating in my book. Cheating implies something wrong and I just can't define the act of intimacy with a God/ess as wrong unless it was unwanted.

Stephanie --

Two such scenarios come to mind to fit my definition of how diety would present themselves in a way so as to convey the "intimate" sentiment. While one is deep in meditation or conversing with diety. And two if a partner were capable of invoking and drawing down said diety into themselves.

[OrionNeb87]

Can't say I've ever experienced this but it sounds pretty interesting.

[Chibi-Fallon]

It's not a simply Pagan thing either... after all they don't call 'em the brides of Christ for nothing. :lol:

Christians experience estatic and charismatic experiences of speaking in tongues and being filled with the spirit, etc. St. Thersa of Avilla (http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/14515b.htm) as just one example, had estatic experiences great intensity and passion. I for one remember thinking her (brilliant) writings on these experiences were laced with pent-up sexual energy...I was a teenager with my own. 8O

Pagans of various traditions experience such manisfestations and have been since the beginning of humankind, I imagine. And as Pagans generally do not have the same sexual prohibitions as Christians ....makes sense that sensuality and sex would be more natuarlly expressed with the manisfestation of deity. :)


eta: Clarity

[StephanieAine]

I'm trying to understand this, and it's just not computing, LOL.

I can't see how something that occurs in a trance state, for example (which would mean the person is essentially experiencing something within their mind, and so if anyone walked into the room and looked at them, there would only be one person sitting there in the lotus position with some burning incense on the table or something) - would be able to call an experience 'real' if the experience occurred within the mind.

If that were the case - then if I sit here and envision icecream in front of me, and I imagine tasting it, that I'm *really eating icecream.* That can't be!

I understand mystical experiences - ecstatic speech, glossolalia, mystical visions/ aisling, whatever - I don't personally experience speaking in tongues, and I don't have visions per se (though I've had what could be called 'psychic' knowledge of events). Still, those are not even in the same ballpark as what we're talking about here. Here, we're basically discussing whether sex in the brain means you had sex... basically.

Or is the thinking that if you imagine something, it must be real because it could be envisioned... or something?

[Morr]

StephanieAine, have you ever had a sex dream where you actually felt the sexual pleasure?

Its like that, only in trance state, or in an elevetad state of awareness of sort.

[HetHert]

To add to what Morr said...

You'd also need to be willing to conceinve that a God/ess not always need take on a human form to have intimate contact with a human. So often they come to us in visions, in dreams, in trances, and deep meditation. Why should it be any harder to understand that when someone talks to God/ess or receives info and guidance from them in these states that they could not also experience a state of initimate relations where the experience is sexual and gratifying.


*raises hand ecstatically to Morr's question....Oooh Oooh I have I have!*

May have been a little TMI there sorry _inabox_

[ignescentphoenix]

O_O eeep! i never heard of something like that. :viking:

[Jolixte]

I still don't really get it, but I don't know that I want to either.

I haven't had sex with deities (although it sounds like fun!:)), or many mystical experiences, but from what i've read about trance states and deities, it involves more than just the mind or brain, like imagining an 'ice cream' would just be your own mind imagining it, but when you experience a deity, i believe it involves something more than the brain or mind, i think it's probably hard to explain, it's probably something you have to experience to actually know it's real (but then, like i said, i don't know much about it or experienced it so i'm not sure if i'm right :)).

Hope that helped.

[Duende]

StephanieAine, and others who don't really get it,

Morr hit it right on the nose with the dream explanation. But let me add on. The image I would use is in A New Hope when Vader Force-chokes the guy. It's like, these days the gods don't really manifest physically so much any more (for whatever reason), but you can still feel them, and it's real. To use your ice-cream analogy, it's like you are envisioning eating ice cream, but instead of basing it on what you know ice cream to be like, the god tells you what it's like, such that someone who's never tasted, smelled, seen, or even heard of ice cream can experience it accurately. The same would go for sex.

I have had many encounters of this nature with both Venus and Freya (not at the same time). Sorry if this is WTMI, but since I've become more familiar with them, I can, when in a trance state, feel their touch, and observe their influence on the physical plane, i.e. her weight on my body, her nails on my chest, her smell, etc. However, she would not be especially visible or tangible to someone else. Yes, it would probably look a bit odd, epecially at the end. Wink, wink, nudge, nudge.

If you need another image, think of a Venn diagram. If A is Freya's plane, and C is my plane, then B is... uh... where it all happens. See?

[Jolixte]

All right then, it just seems a little weird to the not polytheist that is me.

LB,

[Duende]

David19, to answer your question: I'm probably not one to give advice about dealing with or summoning gods, since I've been talking to them for as long as I can remember, but I've never followed the traditional rules and guidelines. For me, I can just feel their presence when they choose to come around, and I greet them, and I guess I just have the right attitude, because they talk back to me. I've actually never cast a circle or lit a candle or recited an invocation. I just have a talent for it, I guess.

I've been told that it's dangerous to do without going through all of the above measures for safety orefficiency or some such, and I guess that works for some people.

I've only been doing this , however, for about a year. As I became more concious of their influence, I started thanking them personally for things that they did. So it only seemed natural to thank Venus whenever I ...you know... :hahugh: Like anyone, I guess she appreciated the thanks, so she taught me how to take things further. Well, that's mincing words. Actually, it was more like I got knocked into a higher plane of conciousness, and when I came back down I learned how to do it again in my spare time. Now, whenever I ... :hahugh: ... without her, I dedicate it to her, and once in a while she and I... :hahugh: together. Simple as that.

As for the other gods, the not-presiding-over-sex gods, I've not yet been able to interact with them physically (not sex) in the same sort of state, I guess maybe because they don't see occasion to.

Again, I'm far, far from an expert. Sorry if I'm rambling and out of sequence, as I've got a major caffeine jones and my head is pounding.

One last thing: I'm surprised no one's made any jokes yet about "hard" polytheism.

[semi]

LOL you silly man.

*kisses*

[semi]

I was drumming for a potential initiate while she danced. We decided it was time for her to meet Papa Legba. So we gave him some smokes and a beer and I drummed his beat. Sometimes when I drum Legba I can sort of feel him. My movements become a little stiffer, I hunch a bit, and my joints ache as I take on aspects of an old man. I'd prefer that this did not happen, because it hurts, but it often does when I drum Legba. This time he came on strong. It was very painful to drum. I felt very very old. Papa Legba is a strong old man, but the age part of it hit hard. It hurt to even breathe. His presence laid very heavy on me. I looked up at my friend who was dancing----and by this time the room was very hot from the energy we worked up----and her eyes met mine and she got a look of terror in her eyes. Then she fell to the floor. She layed there sweating and panting and smiling and she was flushed.

In the end, it turned out that when she looked at me and our eyes met, she said that mine went dead black and a huge slab of energy leaped off of me and onto her. She said it was shaped, in a sense, like a very large man. When it landed on her, she instantly orgasmed very strongly and fell down. She said she was looking forward to the next drumming session.

That is the closest I can relate to this. My friend got sex, I got the pain of old arthritic bones. Though I'd prefer the pain rather than have Papa Legba come after me like he did my friend. That would not be good.

So it's possible to have psuedo-sexual relations with god-like entities as well as with other non-corporeal things. Does it happen mostly in the mind? Sure it does. Just like sex.

I regularly get to experience harassment, sexual attraction, sexual activities, and other sundry experiences that are usually described as mundane with the gods that I work with.

That's the nifty thing about being a polytheistic panentheist with pantheistic leanings. Why, just last night I had one of my gods propositioning me. Happens on an incredibly regular basis, actually.

No, you would be sitting there, envisioning icecream and imagining the taste. However, if you were sitting there and ate icecream, whether the icecream is objectively present or not, you are *really eating icecream*.


Here, we're basically discussing whether sex in the brain means you had sex... basically.
How is it you are able to create a distinction between the two?

not too long ago i had an enounter with the daghda- he's not particularly a love diety either. i was meditating before bed and i felt that same tension that you explained experiencing between you and taliesian.

another difference is that my self-esteem at the time was just fine. only, during the encounter i wondered if i should feel guilty because i am in an exclusive relationship in this plane. but, it just didn't seem wrong or ill-intentioned but just another form of exchanging positive energy.

However, if it doesn't make sense to me and I get annoyed, I can throw you out.


Also, for someone who accuses me of "trolling" you certainly do seem to cause a good deal of trouble for many of the people who post here. Why do you suppose you do that?
It's my job. What's your excuse?

[Morgandria]

not too long ago i had an enounter with the daghda- he's not particularly a love diety either. i was meditating before bed and i felt that same tension that you explained experiencing between you and taliesian.

another difference is that my self-esteem at the time was just fine. only, during the encounter i wondered if i should feel guilty because i am in an exclusive relationship in this plane. but, it just didn't seem wrong or ill-intentioned but just another form of exchanging positive energy.



The Dagda is a lustful god, and certainly enjoyed sexual relations with many goddesses. One can't be a father-god without fathering. Since he was often depicted as dragging his massive penis around behind him, it's not really out of character for him. A god of Love, not really - a sexual God? Yes.

[Geministar]

Hmmm this all sounds lovley lol~
So tell me, who is the hottest male God, maybe I should try to summon him *wink*
But seriously, this all makes perfect sense to me, I have had other, non-sexual like things happens to me that were perfectly real and tangible.

Who needs a boyfriend when you can have a God/dess?!:hahugh:

[Qeniheru]

I figured I should chime in since Yinepu and I shared a rather lovely evening yesterday. I asked him to come into my life, and appearantly he was most eager to do so. ;)

It felt so right to me, I really can't think of it as cheating. I've discussed the possibility of this with my boyfriend when I found this thread the first time, and he said he would understand completely, as long as I didn't dump him for a deity. :hahugh: At least with the gods, he doesn't mind sharing.

[HeavensHope]

Sure why not, I think most male Gods are like men in general..everyone needs some lovin'.

But back to your whole experience, were you awake when all this happened or asleep? I've never experienced anything remotely close to what you did, didn't think it was possible. Care to share how you did it? :)

[Qeniheru]

Well, it started while I was awake, then I gradually felt like I was asleep, but I wasn't. Not sure what to call that kind of state to be honest. Maybe it was a form of meditation? Hmm...well I was definitely relaxed, once it was all done with. :hahugh:

Before that though, I'd been researching things about him because Yinepu called to me not too long ago...I basically just verbally welcomed him into my life and asked him to join me in my dreams. A simple ritual is all I did, really. Then I went to bed, and while I was still quite awake it started to happen.

I know it's probably not much help, but those are the best words I can find for describing how it happened. I think it's mostly because there's some spontaneous aspect to it as well. At least for me...I certainly didn't see this coming. :nyah:

[Cloverbelle]

I've recently had an experience with Dionysus ... and it was quite interesting. I actually began to meditate in the hopes of meeting Apollo and he just popped right in and began to seduce me. I'd met Dionysus on several occasions before this, but not in this sort of situation! Don't worry, Apollo showed up later, but that was weird!

I am trying to study more of the Roman Pantheon ... and meditating in the hopes of meeting deities have proved fruitful so far, but this last one takes the cake.

[Etezonael]

Have I ever had such an experience? Yes. In a very vivid dream of unmistakable origin.

BUT, I would not go so far as to say it was fun. It wasn’t a bad experience, but the point of the sex was not the sex. It was about overwhelming power and dominance on the part of the deity involved, without sacrificing the sense of love and caring that I needed to feel safe in his care.

The message was clear and something along the lines of: 'I am going to do something to you that will break through every barrier you’ve ever built and completely change your life and despite your initial protests and anxious fears, you will like it. Just thought I’d give you the heads-up.'

It was an act of intimacy that referenced one of the most dramatic forms of initiation into a relationship. It was also my first contact with him.

I tried very hard to write it off as a dream and spent a lot of time thinking I was crazy. Even after I ‘came to terms’ with it I was not comfortable sharing the experience for a very long time.

I don't mean to be a downer here, I just wanted to note that it isn't always fun and games. For me it meant a lot of back-breaking spiritual work.

It certiantly wasn't an experience I sought out. I am, however, greatful for it, as it furthered my path in many ways and continues to be an influence on me now and then.

[LIAL]

I first met Taliesin not too long agowhen I went out too greet Him, he took me on a wild and crazy shapeshifting run! He took my hand, and we became wolves, as I followed Him, we shapeshifted into rabbis, then ducks, crows, stags, and boars. By the time it was done, He turned around and kissed me much to my amazement! Before walking into a bare tree and dissappearing, a few days ago, I felt His presence hovering over me and I sort of saw Him. He was coming down to kiss me again, and I felt an enormous amount of sexual energy coming from Him..I was feeling pretty crappy about myself that day, and told Him, that I wasn't really fit for Him. I got a flirtatious wink, and He left me to my book. Has anyone ever had a deity, well besideslove deities come down to "play"?

That's what happened to me this morning with Set. I've been having some control issues/fears ect. and Set wanted to change that. I was not going to give in so easily. Finally he came to me and well sexully broke down every barrier. I did like the sexual experiance with Set *blush* now we are friends. Note that I use to avoided him out of fear of change.

[QuizzicalKarma]

The fact that this thread popped up again and was at the top of the page only gives me more reason to believe what happened last night was real. The only thing is....He didn't exactly introduce Himself.

When I'm in that little space between asleep and awake, sometimes I get very vivid visions of things that often have never entered my mind before. So I often just lay there, instruct myself to remember and clear my mind for "messages". Last night I heard a distinctly male voice say "Watch this". It scared me, seeing as I don't usually hear things and when I do it's a female speaking. So I turned the radio on to keep myself from hearing anything more, which may be why He choose to get my attention another way, lol.

I'm describing this experince because I need some IDing help. Basically as I'm laying there listening to the radio, I suddenly start feeling very aroused and soon it seemed like something invisible was touching me, purposely trying to arouse me. While it was going on, I could see the slihettute of a man in the forest wearing with horns, and I realized fairly quickly that there was nothing to be afraid of. At that point I went into a trance like state and well...it was very interesting.

Other then the image of a man with horns or wearing horns, there's not much to go on. At one point I thought his legs felt furry, but I didn't 'see' him hardly at all, this was a vision in energy and phyiscal feelings. One person mentioned that it was like an intitiation for her, and I wonder if it might be the same thing for me. I know I haven't really connected with the God that much, other then a Greenman sighting on Litha. I was thinking it slightly off balance because I have two female Deities that have made their prescence known to me. So maybe I just got my balance back...?

Any thoughts who it might have been? Somehow I feel like He's enjoying the mystery and laughing at me as I try to figure it out. So I thought I'd ask here to give me a direction to start from. I got the feeling that I was supposed to come *HERE* to ask towards the end of the 'event', and when I saw this post near the top today, it was for sure. So...thoughts? I've got an adventure to go on! :p

[Pyrate Girl]

Only in dreams after falling asleep after meditation. I had some pretty interesting woodland experiences!!

Do you guys have the same thing with female deity? I also wonder whether this could have been ascribed to incubi and succubi during those ages.

[Cinnamon1991]

This thread is quite old but I remembered it and I had this question:
Did you ever have this experience with a deity of the same sex though you're straight? Because I do think I've had this experience.. Kinda weird..

Not exactly, but I've had that kind of experience with a male deity and I've always been lesbian. I felt weird about it to begin with, and I think the fact that it was outside the bounds of my ordinary sexual attractions and fantasies made it feel even more weird.

It happened when I was very new to my path, and I remember that I thought about quiting because it freaked me out. Not that I was distressed during the experience, just reflecting and questioning myself afterwards.

I feel strange talking about it, but I'm glad someone brought it up and that other people were willing to share.

Hallo

I had a similar experience, but dont want to write about it, its a little to intimate i think

but i think you cant cheat your Partner with a God, its a God and not another Man or Woman so, it s just different i think.

I think in the Avalon Triology there is something about it.

This subject hasn't been brought up in a while, and I am just curious about something. I have experiences (none with deities I don't think), where I can get myself to a meditative state, or if I am tired and imaginative enough at the same time, to make myself imagine this, that I am having sex. I want to believe this is possible, though how do you get into such a situation with a deity? This sounds interesting.

They ask you to do it - or perhaps command in such a way that you can't resist. And then you have explosive sex in a way that's more real than your own girlfriend...who, by the way, turns out to break up with you not two weeks later. Or at least, this is my experience - Pakhet FTW! :D

I had a similar experience with Set...and I'm a straight guy...but that could have been my imagination. Worried the hell outta me, though XD Also the one with Hekate might have been as well - I think I just speak that language more than most :P

[WildThing]

I know the thread's old, but I just felt like responding to it anyway.
I can't say I honestly had any intimate experiences with the Gods but I found this thread RIGHT AFTER my first conversation with Hecate. Morrigan's showed up to talk to me in a dream before, but I'd never had an awake conversation with a God before. Prayer, sure. Actual conversation, no. My mind was blown.
Anyway, the conversation sorta boiled down to; "Your experiences, as a pagan, with deities are very real and they're gonna be alot closer than you're used to. Deal with it."
...because I'd been sortof semi-freaked out about a "sign" I'd been given a few weeks before and felt lost about, even after I meditated for the message it was meant to give me.
And I keep thinking I see Hecate outta the corner of my eye around the witching hour, and it STILL makes me jump, but yeah. xD

So I found this thread and I spoke with my S.O. about it, and he's not pagan at all...not really in any religious category, and doesn't try to hard to find what he believed, so we laughed a little on the thought. But he wouldn't give me a straight answer to whether or not he'd be upset if this sort of intimacy in my relationships with deities would occur. So I have to assume he WOULD be upset. He always was so much more jealous than I could ever be. xD

So my point; I see no reason to believe it's not possible, or that it's uncommon. Paganism, unlike most religions, its members tend to be used to more instant communication and more frequent experiencies with the deities, forces, and creatures we believe in. It's just that we always trip over the definition of what's real. xD

[ninurta2008]

Jury's still out on whether or not it was real...I tend to trip quite a bit XD Is it possible? Hell yes. When I'm with Pakhet there is a distinct charge that isn't present with much else. She hasn't been stopping by lately, though...maybe things have changed. Or maybe I've grown beyond what she wanted to teach me...independence from my lover, who broke up with me and may not even be real. Damned internets >.>

Anyways I've got a growing sense of what is real and what is imagined - not perfect, but I'm learning. You know usually there's a little click of some kind....Pakhet clicks. Hard. In my pants :lol:

I'm not sure where you can read it, I didn't think there was a difference between the different versions, but, here are some sites with the quote:

http://www.thekeep.org/~kunoichi/kunoichi/themestream/set.html:


His bisexuality (he was married and given concubines to appease him, yet he also assaulted Horus sexually starting with the come-on line "How lovely your backside is!") and his pursuit of Isis were reasons why Set could never have been a ruler of Egypt instead of Osiris, despite originally being a lord of Upper Egypt.

http://www.thekeep.org/~kunoichi/kunoichi/themestream/sexuality.html:


Horus and Set

Then Set said to Horus: "Come, let us have a feast day at my house." And Horus said to him: "I will, I will." Now when evening had come, a bed was prepared for them, and they lay down together. At night, Set let his member become stuff, and he inserted it between the thighs of Horus. And Horus placed his hand between his thighs and caught the semen of Set.

-- Story of Horus and Set

After Osiris' eventual death, while Horus was growing up and planning his own revenge, Set and Horus engaged in a homosexual relationship. In one part of the myth, Set proclaimed to Horus, "How lovely your backside is." Informing his mother Isis about his uncle's ardour, Horus is told to catch Set's semen rather than becoming impregnated by the murderer of his father. Set, in doing so, was planning on humiliating Horus by showing the gods that Horus would be filled with someone else's semen.

Horus and Isis's next plan was to 'impregnate' Set with Horus' semen. His mother spreads powerful unguents on Horus' penis, after which he ejaculated into a jar, and they spread it on some lettuce, a favourite aphrodisiac to the ancient Egyptians. Set then ate the semen-covered lettuce, and so Horus (rather than Set with his first 'attack') bacame sexually dominant over his uncle. Set then asked the gods to bring the semen forth from the 'impregnated' one, to humiliate Osiris' son. The semen comes out of Set himself, and he becomes the laughing stock of the gods!

I'm not sure if I'd say Set is a God of homosexuality, as he did have female lovers (like Anat, the teenage Canaanite War Goddess, who did, I think, dress like a boy, or, had "masculine" tendancies), and, I think, Darth Brooks mentioned he had more male lovers than female (hopefully, he'll see this thread and either correct me or expand on the idea, he's the most knowledgable guy on Set on MW, at least, the one who posts, maybe there are others who don't....).

So, Burning Angel, like I said, consider it a compliment - he must have thought you had a nice backside ;).

[ninurta2008]

Anat is an interesting deity, she'd probably be really crazy in bed, maybe thats why Set likes her.

Anat definitely is a very cool Goddess - she doesn't fit the female stereotypes that many people try to fit females (and female Gods) into.

[Neville]

It's a bit daunting for me to think that a God or Goddess might want to hit on me ! What with God's and Goddesses being Omnipotent and lil old me a fleshy body that might last 80 maybe 90 or more if I am lucky . years.

Which does throw up the interesting possibility that the Soul(altogether more durable) might be able to establish such relationships.

I don't think My Flesh could handle an intimate liason with a Deity Just a personal perspective , as ever..:)

[Dumunzi]

I'm still reeling from the deity physically coming and transforming with this person? o_O

[Newbieoffractals]

I've never actually gotten this sense from any of the deities that I honor, chiefly, the Greek ones. Ares seems fatherly to me, and he's the male God I'm closest to, but he's not against sexuality, just not with me. I mean, he's not quite fatherly, but very protecting. He's really not a fan of one of the guys I'm close friends with. He encourages me to stand up to guys who are jerks, mostly, and seems to not be so interested in myself. He stands against abusive relationships, though he does seem to encourage me to get a good relationship at some point. Hera, the Goddess that I'm closest to, she is very anti sexuality, though I sense that's more of a temporary thing, as though I should wait for the right man. As so far as Gods coupling with humans, I think that if a God took possession or decided to take the form of a human, anything is possible, including pregnancy. A god could just as easily be the man you sleep with in a 1 night stand as not, if you don't know the man beforehand and after. Just my opinion though on all of this.

Looking at this from a Jungian point of view; perhaps these God/Goddess sexual relationships in spirit form, or while being in a trance and etc,. are about one establishing a connection with their animus/anima?

Here is one link that explains the beloved pretty well:

I've had one odd experience where I think my animus walked in to my fantasy and turned it in to something completely different, while teaching me a lesson at the same time. After that my conscious mind has made it impossible for me to take anything related to the experience as anything but a silly fantasy. ;(

I'm still reeling from the deity physically coming and transforming with this person? o_O

Into a rabbi, no less.

:lol: I've never really looked at it in a while...not enough mirrors that low. But if he thinks so then cool....but gods. That story is just gross...semen-covered lettuce? What were the Egyptians thinking? XD

I'm loving this thread :D Who's Anat, Ninurta?

Anat is a awesome goddess similar to Ishtar

I have, and it doesn't count as cheating in my book. Cheating implies something wrong and I just can't define the act of intimacy with a God/ess as wrong unless it was unwanted.

Stephanie --

Two such scenarios come to mind to fit my definition of how diety would present themselves in a way so as to convey the "intimate" sentiment. While one is deep in meditation or conversing with diety. And two if a partner were capable of invoking and drawing down said diety into themselves.


You can invoke a deity to have intimate relations!?:jawdrop: would they even be willing to?

Very much so! It used to happen a lot... a priestess would invoke a goddess, and the sex was considered a form of offering to the deity.

Crowley and his various "Scarlet Women" did that too.

Most of them also ended up in an asylum or committing suicide. Not that I'm suggesting there is a link or anything. Oh, OK, you got me, yes I am.

This thread is quite old..

Yes, isn't it?

But I was feeling a little necromantic

A few years ago I had a very strange dream that I was walking through the backyard and there was a pond where the garden is (there is actually no pond there) and everything seemed very magical..lights twinkling and little fairy-like creatures running around and i was kneeling by the pond and suddenly I turned and saw a half goat-half man and we ended up having sex. It was pretty awesome. I told a friend about this dream and her eyes lit up and said, "It was Pan! :) "

Satyrs have horse-sized members, which makes all this very interesting.
