5. Beastly Bastet
Bastet is the Ancient Egyptian cat goddess of war, strategy, fertility, cats ( of course ), child rearing, and protection. Bastet is beast because Ra sent her into a magical obelisk to fight a gigantic snake for eternity. This snake was the main god of chaos. This giant snake was called Apophis. When Bastet went into war she would turn into – human body with LION head –

Sekhmet is one of the oldest known Egyptian deities. She is depicted as a lion-headed woman, sometimes with the addition of a sun disc on her head.

8. Bastet fight with Apophis
In the bottom right picture
Bastet is fighting Apophis – that is incorrect because she would not be in her cat form she would be in her war form ( human body lion head )
(On the bottom left and middle picture Ra is on his night journey through the underworld ( Ra took this trip in the underworld while the moon was up ) While Ra was riding in this boat Bastet and some other gods protected him from the evil snake Apophis from rising into humanity and some other evil creatures lurking in the underworld.

Bastet was a well trained fighter because she was a cat. You might think cats are not good at fights. Cats are very cunning as well. cats are not good in fights but actually cats have long claws. So if you were a goddess that head cat-like superpowers, a human body, and long claws well lets just say WALK AWAY! Although she was a competitive fighter Apophis had some tricks up his sleeve as well. Apophis was a giant snake that was the god of chaos. Apophis had some demons and minor gods of chaos at his side ( like Seth ). Apophis was a large golden snake known to be miles long. He was so larger every day he attempted to swallow the sun also known as Ra. That is why Ra sent Bastet to fight him for eternity. One of Apophis’ many tricks was that Apophis would try to hypnotize Ra. Egyptians thought that because Apophis could not attack while the sun was up they thought he must lie just below the horizon. They also though he would jump up just when the sun was rising and setting.
