Egyptian Ritual Burn Apep or Sun Dies

What if one ritual mistake meant eternal darkness? Ancient Egyptian priests performed sacred ceremonies every dawn, burning wax serpent effigies to banish Apep—the chaos serpent attacking Ra's journey through the underworld. Inside chambers, they shaped papyrus scrolls and wax figures with brutal precision, then stabbed, crushed, smeared with mud, and burned them. Ancient mythology reveals even drawing Apophis whole gave him power—artists only showed him wounded, bleeding, defeated. One mispronounced spell, chaos breaks through. This Egyptian ritual from ancient Egypt protected the sun god every single dawn.
