In our search for a meaningful name which symbolized our aspirations, we settled on the concept of Ma’at.

In Egyptian mythology, Ma’at was a feminine principle, a goddess; daughter of the sun god, Ra; and married to the god of wisdom, Thoth.  Ma’at is most often depicted winged, wearing in her headdress the feather of truth and carrying an ankh – the key to life. Ma’at was a divine protector, one which established regularity in the stars, the seasons and guided the actions of both mortals and the deities, establishing harmony.

This foundational principle of balance and order, rising out of chaos through light, evolved in Egyptian mythology.
Originally referring to a physical quality (level, ordered, symmetrical like the foundation plan of a temple) “Ma’at” later came to mean the moral qualities of righteousness, truth and justice.

The Egyptians were a practical people who recognized that justice is so fundamental that it is part of the natural order of the world. Ma’at therefore meant something more comprehensive than simple fairness; Ma’at was goodness– pure and freely given.

Finally, for us, Ma’at symbolizes an attitude toward life that blends three great human values: the knowledge of science, the beauty of art and the oneness of spirituality.

We meet in Denver on the 2nd Saturday of every month.
