Sekhmet with the head of a lion and the body of a woman, is considered both the wild twin sister of Bast, Egyptian cat goddess and of Hathor, goddess of joy and pleasure. While some saw Sekhmet as the evil twin to Bast’s benign, tame cat, or to Hathor’s dancing goddess, Sekhmet contains these dualities within her. She is associated with the healing arts and is seen as a Mother and Warrior Goddess who can be fierce if need be or sanguine in her role as protector.
Bold!
