Nut
Definition
The Egyptian articulation of the structurally-arching cosmic-sky figure who articulates the cosmic-vault containing the broader cosmic-architecture. Nut names the structural-figure of the Egyptian-tradition that articulates the cosmic-sky function; the Egyptian temple-ceiling articulations preserve Nut as the arching-mother whose body articulates the broader cosmic-vault, and the broader Netist articulation reads Nut as tradition-specific articulation of cosmic-architecture's broader-vault feature.
Literal meaning
The Egyptian articulated-figure of the cosmic-sky. Nut articulates a specific structural-pattern preserved in the Egyptian-tradition: the female-figure who arches across the cosmic-vault, who carries the stars-and-celestial-bodies on her body, and who articulates the cosmic-mother of celestial-articulation.
Esoteric meaning
Nut articulates the structural-feature that the broader contemplative-tradition has recognized as *the cosmic-vault and celestial-mother*. The structural-recognition is that the broader cosmic-architecture includes the celestial-vault as one of its foundational-features; Nut's articulation as cosmic-arch operates at the Egyptian-figural articulation, and the broader Twelve Multiversal Constellations operate within Nut's broader-vault articulation in the Egyptian-cosmology.
Allegorical meaning
A great-vault that arches across the entire visible-sky, with the stars-and-cosmic-bodies articulating across the vault's surface: the vault is real, the stars are real, and the structural-recognition is that the vault's broader-articulation contains-and-supports the celestial-articulations.
Extended meaning
Nut articulates several specific structural-features: (1) The cosmic-vault articulation operates through Nut at the Egyptian-tradition; the broader cosmic-architecture's celestial-vault feature articulates through Nut at the Egyptian-figural articulation; (2) The *Book of Nut* articulates the celestial-passage of the sun-and-moon through Nut's body across the cosmic-cycle; the broader cycle-architecture operates through Nut-pattern at the Egyptian-articulation; (3) The Nut-figure operates as cosmic-mother of celestial-bodies; the Egyptian-cosmology articulates stars-and-planets as Nut's children at the figural-articulation; (4) The Nut-pattern integrates with the broader Stellar Principle and Galactic Cycle articulations at the cross-tradition articulation. The relationship to *Stellar Principle*, *Galactic Cycle*, *Twelve Multiversal Constellations*, *Geb*, and the broader celestial articulations is structural.
*Nut* articulates the Egyptian-comparative figure for cosmic-vault. The article complements *Stellar Principle*, *Galactic Cycle*, *Twelve Multiversal Constellations*, *Geb*, and the broader celestial articulations.
Usage
A practitioner encounters Nut in the broader articulation of comparative-tradition cosmology and in specific contexts of cosmic-vault work.
Ritual usage
Egyptian-tradition rites operate through Nut-articulation. The broader Netist articulation includes Nut-correspondence in celestial-cosmic ceremonies.
Comparative tradition
Egyptian articulation of *Nut* in the *Book of Nut* and the broader Egyptian-tradition. The temple-ceiling articulations at Dendera and broader Egyptian-temple-tradition. The various tradition-specific articulations of cosmic-sky-figure.
