Khepera (I) - Tapestry

Khepera is a deity of transformation and rebirth. Khepera’s essence, symbolized by the sacred dung beetle, teaches us the profound lesson of turning the discarded into the divine, and He embodies the cycle of growth, decay, and renewal. As the bearer of change, Khepera invites us to embrace our past failures as the foundation for growth and to recognize our potential for reinvention.

The creative process of rolling and transforming dung into life-giving spheres mirrors our own journey of nurturing dreams and aspirations in the depths of our subconscious and our push to manifest our deepest desires into reality. This deity’s symbolism extends beyond the mundane; as the dung beetle is the first insect known to navigate by the Milky Way, we are reminded to touch the stars themselves and remember our connection to the cosmos and our place within it.
