The story of the Triumph of Heliopolis tells us that Atom-Ra brought Tafnut out of his mouth with a gesture resembling spit, and brought Shaw out of his nose with a movement resembling his sneeze.
Both peephole and sneeze are just similes of life symbols
Of the way in which Tafnut and Shaw came into being,
It is the ejecting method. The Egyptian folklore still uses the same word "taf" to express spitting.
The second part of the word "taf-naut" means heaven, as it means Also water.
Tfnot was associated with ancient Egyptians with water elements and fire.
It should be noted here that the divine beings that came in the legends of the origin of the Egyptian universe are not elements of nature, but are the spirits of nature that dominate their elements. All ancient civilizations saw nature as spirits, for the fire of souls, for water, for souls, for air, for souls, and for the earth for souls.
These spirits are the nitro (divine beings) that came into being in The first time, which dominates and regulates the elements of nature.
Tefenot was associated with both humidity and fire. And was also associated with the Almaat The cosmic order, if lost, is replaced by chaos.
An ancient Egyptian myth tells that Tafnut was angry with her father Atom - Ra, and suddenly decided to leave Egypt and migrate to Nubia, and at Her departure took with her all the water and moisture and left the land of Egypt in a state of drought And chaos. Her father sent her a messenger, "Thoth", which he managed Persuade her to return to Egypt. And when Tafnout returned to The land of Egypt returned with the flood again, and went drought and chaos.
Tafnout visited every city in Egypt where she received it
The people of each city celebrate and rejoicing.
