Osiris

Part of my Mytholotea series. Osiris is the Egyptian god usually identified as the god of the afterlife, the underworld, and the dead. He is classically depicted as a green-skinned man with a pharaoh's beard, partially mummy-wrapped at the legs, wearing a distinctive crown with two large ostrich feathers at either side, and holding a symbolic crook and flail. He is the husband and brother of Isis. The myth usually surrounding Osiris describes him as being killed by his brother Set, who wanted the throne. Isis briefly brought Osiris back to life by use of a spell that she learned from her father. This spell gave her time to become pregnant by Osiris before he again died. Isis later gave birth to Horus. Since Horus was born after Osiris' resurrection, Horus became thought of as a representation of new beginnings and the vanquisher of the evil Set. This tea is smokey and spicy, with a pinch of sweetness - much like the afterlife realm that Osiris governs. Suggested brewing instructions: 212° for 3-5 mins.
