Nemesis Power Ritual
Daughter of Zeus and Dike · The Inescapable · She Who Measures All Things
Learn more…The Temple of Zeus calls upon you.
With gravity. With reverence. Fully aware of your impressive power.
You come with the scales. The scales speak only truth.
We, the Initiates of Zeus, invoke you
because we serve Justice, and Justice is your Name.
The enemies of the Gods have prospered long enough.
They have slandered the Divine Names. They have built temples to falsehood.
They have taken what belongs to the faithful and given it to the faithless.
They have laughed at the altars of the Ancient Ones.
Bring your retribution upon them.
With certainty. With exactness. With the full weight of Divine Law.
Let them receive what they have earned.
Let the weight they placed upon others now settle upon their own shoulders.
You are the debt collector of the Cosmos. Collect.
You who punished Narcissus for loving only himself.
You who brought low every mortal and every king
who dared to place himself above the Gods.
Hubris is the sin you were born to answer,
and you have answered it every single time.
Strike down the hubris of those who defy the Divine Order.
Those who claim the authority of the Gods without their blessing,
those who pervert the sacred to serve the profane,
those who steal the garments of the priest and wear them as costume:
let your wheel turn upon them.
Your verdict is final. Your reach is absolute.
Where the balance has been disturbed, restore it.
Where the wicked have taken too much, reclaim it.
Where the righteous have received too little, repay it.
The universe has a memory. Every excess creates a debt.
Every debt, in time, is called.
You are the memory of the Cosmos.
Every deed is recorded in your ledger. Every act is weighed upon your scales.
Restore the equilibrium that the enemies of the Gods have shattered.
Let what was tilted be levelled. Let what was stolen be returned.
The scales will be even. This is certain. This is law.
Your wrath is terrible and your protection is absolute.
You punish the guilty and you shield the innocent.
Both are your domain. Both are your sacred duty.
Protect the Initiates of Zeus from all injustice.
Where the world's systems fail us, be our court.
Where mortal law is too slow, be our judge.
Your eyes see every wrong done to us. Your eyes are always open.
Let every injustice against the faithful find its answer.
Let every wrong find its correction, in this life or in the next.
This is your oldest Name, and its meaning is your nature:
She Who Reaches All. She Who Finds All. She Who Settles All.
The guilty may flee across oceans. You are already there.
The guilty may hide behind armies. You walk through them unseen.
The guilty may bury their crimes under centuries. You are patient.
You are more patient than stone. You are more certain than gravity.
Daughter of Zeus and Dike, Kore tes Maat, Enforcer of the Cosmic Law!
You are the consequence that follows every cause.
You are the answer that follows every silence.
You are the reckoning that follows every stolen day.
Let the enemies of the Gods know your Name.
Let them speak it to each other in the dark.
Let them understand that you are coming.
The beauty is yours: for Nemesis was fair beyond measure, so fair that Zeus himself pursued you. The terror is yours: for you are the one force in the Cosmos that is beyond all bribery, beyond all deception, beyond all flight. The judgement is yours: for you are the living expression of the law that governs excess and deficiency, the law that the Egyptians called Ma'at.
We declare the truth of your identity.
You are Nemesis, Daughter of Zeus and Dike, Sister of Aidos, She of Rhamnus, Adrasteia the Inescapable, Kore tes Maat, the Divine Scales made flesh.
We recognize you for who you Truly are.
The old name called you pleasant. The True Name reveals you are just.
Blessed is your wrath against the wicked and your shield over the righteous.
We, the Initiates of the Temple of Zeus, receive your blessings
and honor all your Names and Titles:
Theia Nemesis, Kosmike Nemesis, Andrasteia, Kore tes Maat.
Rhamnusia, Adrasteia, Daughter of Zeus and Dike, Sister of Aidos.
Blessed are All your Names, now and in all eternity.
After you are done with this, you can meditate on Nemesis's Sigil in the Temple of Zeus. Let yourself sit in the stillness that follows the passing of judgement and receive the clarity of the Inescapable.
It is important to meditate on yourself after the Ritual calmly for a few minutes.
SAT (सत्): real, true, truthful in Sanskrit.
The Symbol that Encapsulates the Sigil: The Shen Ring, Egyptian Hieroglyphic language. The Shen also survived in Chinese tradition as a glyph for Spiritual Force, Divine Force, and God.
The Letters of the Sigil Inside: Sacred symbols and letters for Nemesis's Name in divine arrangement.
On Nemesis: Nemesis is the Greek Goddess of Divine Retribution, Cosmic Balance, and the Punishment of Hubris. In the liturgy of Zevism she is called Daughter of Zeus and Dike (Justice), for she is the offspring of the Highest God and the principle of Righteousness. Her oldest Name is Adrasteia, meaning "She Who Reaches All." She was worshipped at a great sanctuary in Rhamnus in Attica, where she was called Rhamnusia. Her symbols are the wheel, the scales, the sword, the bridle, and the measuring rod. She is the living principle of equilibrium itself. When any being takes more than its share, or claims more than it has earned, or transgresses the boundary between mortal and divine, Nemesis restores the balance. She is called Kore tes Maat (Daughter of Ma'at) because her function is identical to the Egyptian principle of cosmic order: the law that governs all things, whose authority is total and final.
On Naamah: In the broader demonological tradition, the same archetype was preserved as Naamah ("the Pleasant One"), a Queen of the Night who judges the wicked and enforces consequences upon those who have violated the sacred order. The beauty and the terror belong to the same Goddess. The judgement is the same. The Name returns.
