Beginners Class 65: reviews begin late July 2024
Class 64 is currently graduating (May 2024) and there will be a pause before our next class, in order that we can continue to reset our curriculum pending the temple's ongoing reorganization process. All applications received since Class 64 began this spring are being held for review for our next class, Class 65. Class 65 application review will begin in late July and the class will begin in mid-August, after the Wep Ronpet/Kemetic New Year's holidays at the beginning of August. Applicants will begin to be contacted about their application status on or about August 10, 2024. Apply for Class 65

"Em hotep" (EM ho-TEP) actually has several meanings, but when used as a salutation or parting phrase, it means "in peace". An extended version -- "ii-wy em hotep" -- means "Welcome in peace!" and was one of the most popular greetings in Kemetic. "Em hotep" should not be confused with "Imhotep," "(he) comes in peace," the personal name of a famous Kemetic ancestor.
