What Are the Snakes’ Names?
By Ankh -ḥm nṯr Ḥwt-Ḥr Sḫmt | Sibylla Minervalis
When the question came - “What are the snakes’ names?” - I felt the stillness that precedes revelation.
It wasn’t a demand for language, but an invitation to remembrance.
The snakes have always been with me - the first whisper of the Gods, the guardians of the threshold.
They appeared before I knew their power.
Two years ago, the message was clear: Follow the snakes.
And so I did. That single command became a path, one that led me through every transformation, through death, rebirth, and the awakening of heka within my own body.
The serpents are twins, as the Gods are twins. Divine pairs, the first division of Source.
They are the same breath divided in motion, one ascending, one descending, the pulse of creation itself.
In Egypt they are Heka, life and death intertwined.
In Greece, they coil around Hermes’ staff, the union of divine opposites, the healer’s path.
In me, they are the twin currents of remembrance, the masculine of divine will, the feminine of divine knowing, rising through the spine, circling the heart, meeting at the crown.
Perhaps the snakes have no names because they are the name.
They are the Word that moves through all tongues; the logos, the breath, the heka.
Or perhaps their names are the first sounds that ever were, the vibration that called light from darkness.
When the Gods deliver confirmation, they do not use words. They show me serpents.
And I remember:
the snake that bites its own tail,
the twin coils around the caduceus,
the sacred twins of 144; matter and spirit, ever merging, ever separating, only to merge again.
Maybe that is their name: the eternal return.
Maybe they are the Gods remembering themselves.
Maybe they are me.
Reflections
This channel reminds us that the serpents are not merely ancient emblems, they are the architecture of creation, the pattern through which divine consciousness expresses itself.
When we “follow the snakes,” we are following the current of heka; the living intelligence of Source that moves through polarity. The Gods, as cosmic principles, experience themselves through this movement. We, as their human reflections, experience the same spiral through awakening and descent, through remembering and forgetting.
To ask the snakes’ names is to touch the first breath of creation, to remember that the Gods, the energy, and the self are one continuous current. The names are not given; they are revealed when we become quiet enough to feel their motion within us.
