The Opening of the Year: A Celestial Celebration
In the heart of ancient Egypt, where the Nile’s waters whispered secrets and the pyramids touched the sky, a momentous festival unfolded—the Opening of the Year.
🌠 Sirius: The Guiding Star:
Before the sun rose above the horizon, the star Sirius emerged. Its brilliance outshone all others, casting a celestial glow upon the land.
The ancients believed that Sirius heralded the annual flood of the Nile River, bringing life-giving waters to the parched earth. It was more than a star; it was a cosmic messenger.
