Atum, the bisexual God, from ancient Egypt

('Coffin Texts,' I, 161: ff)

I am Atum, the creator of the Eldest Gods,

I am he who gave birth to Shu,

I am that great He-She,

I am he who did what seemed good to him,

I took my space in the place of my will,

Mine is the space of those who move along

like those two serpentine circles.

 

 

Translated by R.T. Bundle Clark, in his Myth and Symbol in Ancient Egypt (London 1959)p.80

"The union of spirit and flesh creates a subtle new harmony.

Two unique worlds come together, and through our hearts unite into one.

For it is only in the voice of the flesh, that the song of the spirit is finally sung."

Jack Haas
