Seafood. Mainly shellfish, like lobster, and crab.

Whenever I find an old key, or get a new one, I always set it at the base of his statue. Anubis loves keys (I hear). He also likes pottery. And I so happen to make pottery. So I tend to bless the pots in his name.

Blues, black, gold, and greens.

When to pray to Anubis.
children related things. Help with animals.
When traveling. When someone has died.
Prayers for opportunities. Prayers against evil spirits.
Prayers for patience and kindness.

He loves the smell of cedar, pine, and myrrh.


Quick facts:
Anubis became associated with the dead, mostly because they were seen pocking around cemeteries.
My URL is "kemetic jackal" because I wanted the jackal god Anubis, to watch over the site, me, and my followers. ^^ may he watch over you, and bless you always. <3
