The ritual of “Festival of the Two Kites: a Khoiak Funeral for Osiris” is complete.
It includes a lamentation by the Two Sisters (you take both parts), an offering ritual that re-assembles His body and enlivens His Ka (with lunar associations), an empowerment of His Ba by the joining of Osiris and Re and renewal in the Nun (with solar associations), and the raising of Osiris as Foremost of the Akhu (with stellar associations).
Rather than formatting the whole ritual for this WordPress blog (it really isn’t great for formatting ritual), I’ve put it into PDF format and you can download it here. You are most welcome to use it as you wish, and even join me in doing this rite on solstice eve, if you like.*
I’ve written this for myself, because She asked me to, which means I haven’t explained everything in the ritual itself. You can find information on making offering here. You can change up the offerings listed as you wish, making them meaningful for you.
“Kheperu” is an advanced technique for a priest/ess/ex with some experience under their belt.
If you’ve done this technique before, you might have done so under the name “Assumption of the God/dessform” or “Aspecting.” If you’re an experienced ritualist, that’s what it means when the ritual says to take on the Kheper of Isis or Nephthys.
If you’re not so experienced, you can just read the text without actually “taking on the Kheper” of the Goddesses.
During the course of the ritual, let yourself truly mourn for Osiris, then work magic for His renewal, and finally allow yourself to feel joy for His completed renewal and coming forth among the Starry Gods as Lord of Eternity.
According to the text in which the Lamentations of the Goddesses was found, it is beneficial for anyone who does the rite. Should you choose to join me, I hope it may indeed be beneficial for you, too.
*Please note that I have added a copyright notice to the ritual as it is not published anywhere else.
