I ask that You travel beside me as I make my journey.
Let my path be easy and my troubles light
let me return home safely so I may give my thanks to You.
Lord, I sing Your praises!

Dua Wepwawet!
[ A prayer for safety in travels, directed to Wepwawet, the Kemetic god who guards the ways of both the living and the dead. ]
I love it! I hadn’t really thought of Wepwawet as a “god of travel,” essentially. I figured He was the guardian of the root chakra because He’s the closest we Kemetics have to Ganesh, Remover of Obstacles. But this prayer is nice. I think I’ll bookmark it for future use. Thanks for writing it!
:) Awesome, I’m glad someone else might use it! For me, Wepwawet is all about travel – He keeps me from getting hurt when I drive (which is probably His hardest task, I’m a terrible driver!), so I have a little mini-shrine to Him in my car. His home shrine also holds my passport. XD
