In the high drama of Egyptian religion, Set plays the necessary role of bringing death to the world by casting his divine brother Osiris, into the mighty river Nile.
When Osiris is returned to life briefly by the magic of his loving sister-wife, Isis, the sequence of disintegration and regeneration into a higher form is born.
Set embodies the powerful forces needed to bring about great change.
Ultimately defeated by Isis and her son, the falcon-god Horus, Set becomes a free spirit, a wanderer on earth and, after his forced exile, the god of desert solitude.
Those born under the sign of Set seek change and are forever searching for their wholeness. They must experience many adventures before finding themselves and being able to direct their strong inner powers. They readily learn from their mistakes and possess a tenacity in their challenges unrivaled by any other sign.
The essence of Set is metamorphosis, the cocoon of life is ever expanding to embrace new knowledge and insight. The Set personality is called upon to lead the way into these unexplored dimensions.
