She is often depicted as a lioness-headed woman or as a full lioness. Her name, which means "The Powerful One," reflects her fierce and powerful nature. Sekhmet was considered a goddess of war, destruction, and healing. She was believed to possess immense strength and was associated with the scorching heat of the sun. She was often called upon to protect the pharaoh and the Egyptian people in times of conflict, using her ferocity and aggressive nature to ward off enemies. However, Sekhmet was also associated with healing and medicine. She was believed to have the power to cure illnesses and epidemics. Temples dedicated to her were important centers for medical treatment, and priests and priestesses would invoke her to aid in the healing process. One of the most famous myths involving Sekhmet is the "Destruction of Mankind" myth. According to the story, Ra, the sun god, became angry with humanity for their disobedience and disrespect. He sent Sekhmet to earth to punish them, and she went on a rampage, slaughtering humans indiscriminately. To stop her, Ra tricked her by turning the Nile River into red-colored beer. Sekhmet, mistaking it for blood, drank it and became intoxicated, eventually returning to her docile form as the goddess Hathor. Sekhmet's cult was widespread throughout ancient Egypt, and she was venerated by both royalty and common people. She was often depicted in temples and tombs, and her statues were believed to provide protection and ward off evil spirits. Her worship declined after the New Kingdom period, but her image and symbolism continued to be used in Egyptian art and religious practices. Today, Sekhmet is occasionally invoked by modern practitioners of Egyptian-based Neopaganism and other eclectic spiritual traditions.
