Bastet, goddess with the body of a woman and the face of a cat, swinging between good and bad tendencies, appears late in Egyptian religion, thought the symbolisim of the cat is prehistoric. The cat, with its affinity with the human, always gives a keen perception of the occult in its most ancient origin.
The importance accorded to the cat by the original inhabitants of the Valley of the Nile is linked directly to its spectral gaze which embodies the secret repository of a mysterious knowledge. Simply by its magnetic presence, it can detect and thwart any outside attack.
Bastet is fascination arising from a forbidden place. When this mysterious knowledge is realized, it opens the way to worship in the deepest sense.
Those born under this sign seek balance and harmony in their/with their relationships with others. They know how to protect and devote themselves to their loved ones while occasionally neglecting their own interests. They possess and inner strength and agility which help them to recognize their hidden enemies and thus triumph over them.
The Bastet character can sense the most obscure psychic forces. When aligned with this intuitive strength, they will bring great insight into business ventures and especially affairs of the heart.
