Ra’s solar journeyLayout preview — illustrative artwork, not a page from the final report

Twelve thirty-day months followed by five additional days.

Groups of stars used, among other purposes, to mark the hours of the night.

Ra, Horus, Isis and Osiris: different roles across places and periods.

Lotus, ankh, falcon and serpent: images to understand in their context.

Monuments and landscapes invite an informed discovery of this heritage.
The model begins on January 1 by modern convention. It does not convert your birth into an ancient Egyptian date. February 29 shares the position of February 28.
The 36 civil periods do not identify astronomical decans. Apophis is not an attested natal sign; our personal reflections are contemporary ORACLASTRA creations.
Akhet, Peret and Shemu: flooding, growth and harvest. Three cultural reference points for the rhythm of the Nile.

Twelve thirty-day months form 36 civil periods. These positions do not identify a natal stellar decan.
Decans are stellar groups documented in different Egyptian systems. Their observation was used in particular to track the night. Our period number is purely civil: no observation of the sky at your birth has been made.
From dawn to renewal, five narrative images introduce the solar cycle.
Egyptian solar narratives describe the return of light. Your date does not select a stage of destiny: the five images form a complete reflective journey to read together.
