Meaning of Seth Tattoos (Egyptian god)

Seth is an Egyptian god, also called Setesh, Sutekh, Setekh or Suty. He is considered to be god of chaos, drought, war, and lord of the red earth (desert) where he was the balance for the role of Horus as the lord of the black earth (soil).

Described as a very complex god, it symbolizes confusion, disorder, disruption, and many other negative concepts such as authoritarianism, fury, cruelty, crisis, turmoil, disaster, suffering, disease, and storm.

Despite the power of chaos and disorder, Seth contributes to the cosmic balance of the universe. According to the Egyptian view, destructive forces live in constant struggle with positive forces.

His image is described as a man with the head of a fantastic animal they called the Seti animal, with a pointed snout, tall, rectangular ears, a thin canine body with a long forked tail and tufts. It has also been depicted as boar, antelope, crocodiledonkey, snake, scorpion and even a hippopotamus
