Tenets of Faith
Clergy and Temples
Horus's clerics are advisors to kings. Like most Pharaonic clergy, they wear white robes, but the upper leaders of his church also adorn themselves with golden crowns, bracers and other symbols of their high office.Holidays
The Sanctification of Chivalry
This ceremony takes place on the day that Horus was crowned as the King of the Gods after Ra. The sanctification is a ceremony that must occur when a new High Priest of Horus is called.The Feast of Maekrix
The feast involves a ceremony by which young men, and in certain societies young women, are assigned by Horus a quest that marks their coming-of-age. This quest is particularly important for members of royal families as one cannot become Heir to any Throne until after the successful completion of the quest. Non-royal families who are strict adherents to Horus's teachings often require this of their children as well.Relationships
History
Though the two deities are half-brothers, incest is not a concept that exists amongst the Pharaonic deities, since almost all of the deities are related in some way. Horus and Anubis were not raised together and had always considered themselves lovers before siblings. In fact, it wasn't until after their relationship formed that they found out about their shared father. They decided that such a thing did not matter and continued the relationship.
Shared Secrets
Their relationship, while known to certain deities, is not known to all and is never known to mortals. This is to protect its sanctity. Horus doesn't want anybody using his relationship with Anubis as ammunition to attack him. Osiris, Isis, Nephthys, and Thoth are the only deities who know about this relationship.
