HERSHEF
Egyptian Fertility God
Also known as Herishef, Heryshaf, Heryshef
Horny primeval god
He is a manifestation of Horus. He’s a fertility deity with a horned ram’s head who rose out of the primordial waters of creation until his head was in the sky.
One of his eyes became the Sun and the other became the Moon. Which means he must have been extremely cross-eyed.
He is a god of fertility, although so far we haven’t uncovered the fertile details. It seems if you had a ram’s head in ancient Egypt you were immediately considered sexy. Even if you were cross-eyed.
