He created a hill, Atum was alone in the world. He was neither male or female, and he had one all seeing eye that could roam the universe.
Out of these waters rose Atum. He created himself using his thoughts and the sheer force of his will.
Shu and Tefnut were given the task of separatingchaos into principles of law, order, and stability
He joined with his shadow to produce a son and a daughter. Atum gave birth to his son by spitting him out. he named him Shu and made him god of the air.
this order was called maat, which formed the principles of life for all time, maat was a feather that was light and pure
Shu and Tefnut produced Geb, the earth and Nut, the sky. They were tangle up as one.
Atum vomited up his daughter. he named her Tefnut, and made her goddess of mist and moisture .
Shu god of the air pushed Nut up into the heavens. there she would arched over geb, her mate.
in time shu and tefnut retured with the eye. when atum saw them he was so happy and he wept tears of joy
nut produced rain, geb made things grow.
shu and tefnut produced other the gods. But the chaos was still vast and not yet fully separated into the order of maat.
as the sky, nut gave birth to the sun every night before dawn, and by day it would follow its course over the earth and die at sunset.
shu and tefnut once got lost in the dark waters of Nu. Atum was desperate to find his children, he sent his all seeing eye throughout the heavens and earth in search for them
as these tears hit the earth, they became the first men.
