Eye of Radisputed

The sun's eye as a feminine, sometimes violent force acting for Ra — embodied by Hathor, Sekhmet, Bastet and Wadjet (the uraeus).

Tradition: egyptian · Period: Old Kingdom onward

Disputed: Graphically usually indistinguishable from the wedjat; the "left eye = Horus / right eye = Ra" rule is a modern simplification.

Figures: Ra · Hathor · Sekhmet · Bastet
