Wadjet

Intro Wadjet, the Egyptian goddess of protection, kingship, and the embodiment of the cobra’s power, is a revered figure of strength and guardianship. As the protector of Lower Egypt and the patron of the pharaohs, she symbolizes sovereignty and divine authority. Wadjet’s image as a rearing cobra, often worn on the pharaoh’s crown, represents her role as a fierce defender of order and the throne. Associated with the scorching heat of the sun and the sharp strike of the cobra, Wadjet is both a nurturing guardian and a formidable force against chaos. She ensures the safety of the rightful rulers and the balance of Ma’at, the cosmic order. Her name means "green one," reflecting her ties to the fertile Nile Delta and the life it sustains. Wadjet’s essence is one of vigilance and unwavering strength. To encounter her is to stand in the presence of a protector whose gaze pierces deception and whose power commands respect, embodying the delicate balance of nurturing care and unyielding ferocity.
