Here I will share my first experience with the goddess Sekhmet. For those unfamiliar with Sekhmet, she is the Egyptian goddess of war or savagery.
In fact, recently i was feel a strong draw to Sekhmet. In this forum, i was talking to someone about Egyptian Tree of Life and he suddenly talked about Sekhmet goddess in the conversation. In the days before this conversation, i already felt strong draw to Sekhmet and now she firmly lodged in my mind. Since I first encountered Sekhmet in ancient Egyptian texts, I have never felt this close to her.
After the day of the conversation, this feel was greatly grow. I saw her name in my dream. It was as if she was trying to tell me something in the dream. She wasnât there in the dream, only her name was there.
That day I was meditating and I was sleepy. Suddenly, a fear began to rise within me. The fear grew stronger as time passed, and for a moment I felt defenseless. In those moments, the image of Sekhmet began to appear in my mind. It was as if she had caught me in my moment of weakness and was testing me. At least I was able to handle it.

Also, after my meditation, I wanted to clear my head a bit by playing World of Tanks, and even in the game, her name popped up:
What I understand is that Sekhmet is sending me messages from everywhere as much as possible. This is the first time Iâve experienced such a situation. I wanted to discuss this situation with Amaymon and he told me these: âSekhmet wants to work with you. She will be together with you in my gate. But this will be difficult for you. Make up your mind now and call herâ
Mantra and Sigil for the Evocation
Since i didnât found any sigil or mantra for her, i created a mantra and sigil for the evocation. The mantra actually calls her savagery aspect. Hereâs the mantra:
kbyt.k wbn.f m ka.i - your savagery shines in my spirit
sw.k nbd shd.f ka.i - your destructive light illuminates my spirit
r.i ka.i hpi.f m rn.k - my sun and my spirit becomes one with your name
ii n.i ntrt sáž«m - powerful goddess! come for me
nfy áčŻêŁw.k nis hr.i - and blow your fire breath on me
Sekhmetâs name (Originally sáž«mt) is actually derived from the âto be powerfulâ word: sáž«m (to be powerful) + -t (feminine suffix). Instead of adding the word âpower,â I wanted to represent it directly by her name.
Also hereâs the sigil:
The texts from the sigil:
shmt pw kbyt jrt-rê„ - Sekhmet is the savagery of eye of RA
shmt pw hâ shm râ - Sekhmet is the powerful manifestation of RA
I found the symbol of Sekhmet in the center of the sigil on the walls of the Kom Ombo Temple:
I didnât found any symbol for sigil and the day I started designing the sigil, this symbol suddenly appeared in my mind while I was meditating. At first i thought it was a message of Sekhmet and i added this symbol.
After a few days, I completed the evocation. Firstly, I repeated the mantra several times, then closed my eyes and continued repeating her name. She made me feel very close to her. It got to the point where I felt like there was a real person in the room. I donât know how to explain it, but I felt like a real person had walked into my room and was sitting across from me.
The feeling of warmth enveloping me began and grew quite strong. Then I wanted her to prove herself. She did, and the conversation began. Her voice was truly impressive. He had a confident and clear voice:
Sekhmet: Finally, we are together
Me: After the last messages I received, I decided I needed to come to you.
Sekhmet: I had to reach you somehow.
Me: I spoke with Amaymon. I will be away from him for a while and will follow your path. What do you think?
Sekhmet: Just as I wanted. There are still some things that need to be fixed for you to move forward. I want to take care of them.
Me: So, do you want to work with me?
Sekhmet: No, I donât want to work with you. I want to be in your life and on your path, to help you like a mother.
Me: So, what will I learn and what will I find along the way?
Sekhmet: You will find your true self. I will teach you how to stand tall, to trust yourself, to trust your path, and to act like a god. Belial and Amaymon have already shown you this, but I will take it even further. Because you still have things missing for your journey. At the end of my path, you will find your own power. You will have power just like your mother, and you will become one with my savagery and power.
-There was a moment of silence. I was thinking about her answer.-
Sekhmet: I have a question for you. Is this path to becoming a living god that you are currently pursuing really right for you?
-I thought about it with unexpected doubt and said yes-
Sekhmet: Right now, I want you to take the time to think about this quietly. Iâll be watching you.
-I thought for a few minutes and explained a few reasons I came up with to her.-
Me: Do you think these are the reasons?
Sekhmet: Because you have doubts. About yourself, your path, and everything. This has been with you since the beginning of your journey, and itâs a serious obstacle. Youâve overcome some of them from time to time, but youâve buried the really difficult ones in darkness. Thatâs why you answered with doubt. You just saw it yourself. You have doubts even about your own purpose.
Me: And I will overcome these obstacles on your path?
Sekhmet: More than this.
Me: I can somehow imagine the challenges I will face, and I am now ready to follow your path.
Sekhmet: I know. I started sending you messages because you were ready to walk my path.
Me: Did you send the message for the symbol in the sigil?
Sekhmet: No. You found this yourself and it became powerful with the hieroglyphs you added.
Me: What else will you help along the way?
Sekhmet: I will also help you with healing. I am not only the goddess of savagery and power but also the goddess of healing and medicine. When there are no trainings, I am not a tough goddess. I will protect you and heal you to maintain the balance on my path. I will explain what I have said here in more detail in future.

From this experience, I saw that Sekhmet really seemed calm and confident to me. Of course, her savagery side would not be like this.
I also want to add this that Sekhmet has a bit of a noisy breath. It is said that Sekhmet has a fiery breath and it was exactly like that.
