Bastet: Lion and cat and woman, goddess of war and fertility—the Egyptian goddess Bast (also known as Bastet) contains multitudes. While she\'s not the only cat goddess from ancient history, Bastet is probably the most famous cat goddess today. She has a strong presence in pop culture and a select few even still worship her!

As one of the main goddesses of the Egyptian pantheon, Bastet had a huge number of attributes and aspects:

She was a goddess of cats, the sun, of the East, of fire, of love, intoxication, music and dancing, joy, celebration, fertility, secrets, magic, and sex.
However, she was also a goddess of war known for her wrathful vengeance.
She protected households and individuals from disease and evil spirits, guarded pregnant women, and protected cats.
She served as the divine nurse and mother of the Pharaoh.
Due to Bastet meaning \"she of the ointment jar\" she also became known also as a goddess of perfume, and was called the \"perfumed protector.\"
Bast/Bastet was the protector and guardian of Lower Egypt.
She was the patron goddess of fire fighters, because the Egyptians believed that a cat running through a building on fire would draw the flames out.
She was also one of the goddesses who was known as the \"eye of Ra\" or the \"eye of Atum,\" the sun. In this aspect she symbolized Ra\'s feminine counterpart and was sent out to take vengeance on his enemies. The \"eye of Ra\" was both a part of Ra and a separate being from him, and was considered his mother, sister, wife, and daughter simultaneously. She had life-giving, protective and also destructive capacities.
