Cobra Wajet (Wajit)

Ancient Egyptian female Deity, daughter of the sun god Ra. The image of a Cobra (Uraeus or Jareth) is an invariable attribute-the defender of the royal crown in ancient Egypt, a symbol of the power of the pharaoh. The snake with the sun disk symbolized the guardian spirit, designed to protect its owner from dangers and enemies. Also, the goddess Wajit (literally means "green") in the form of a cobra was the guardian and patroness of Lower Egypt (the Nile Delta). As a fire-spitting serpent Wajet was equated with the royal uraeus and in the end became the "Eye of Ra".
