With Horus, the politics of justice take shape in the mythical world of the ancient Egyptians. This vengeful god, son of Isis and Osiris, entered into the legendary combat with Set.
Aided by partisans loyal to his father, Horus conquered the invaded kingdom and, during the struggle, overpowered Set in Nubia which made him the first sovereign god of the greater unified Egypt. We see him still fighting, helped by his great love for justice.
During his battle with Set, the strength of Horus gave rise to the history of the magnificent sovereigns and of the power and protection derived from the gaze of "Udjat," the magic eye, plucked from Osiris and taken by Horus.
This bird-god possesses to a supreme degree the virtues of enlightenment and peace with which he renews the vital fluids of that which is desiccated or congealed.
Those born under the sign of Horus make their way in the world with a sparkling personality strengthened by a fierce will. Their inteligence and breadth of learning make them appear capable of understanding and uncovering anything.
They must master their rebellious spirit early, before their eagerness to dominate makes them opportunists. Their deep psychic ability is balanced between an appreciation of the paternal virility and that which is contributed by mothers and wives.
