House of Eset and Set

What is Zaar and What need can Zaar fulfill?

Zaar is a tradition that has been practiced and utilized for many ages by women from many cultures. Women gathered into small trusted groups to dance and drum, sing and chant and/or to perform ritual. There are many reasons to do Zaar and no one is absolutely certain how Zaar was started. Some surmise that these gatherings were not intended as celebrations but as a way to release pent up anxieties and emotions. Stress, anxiety, unhappiness, resentment, un-fulfillment, worry, malaise, un-wellness, burden of responsibilities are all factors that weigh in a woman’s life. These Darknesses are what woman face many times in their lives. The Darknesses that she sometimes becomes consumed by and then triumphs over, making her stronger and molding her into the person that she is. Getting together in small trusted groups allow women to have a safe environment to cry, release, dance and move, without worry of judgment or criticism. Dance is a good way to release endorphins and feel better about oneself, while the methodic Zaar drum rhythm easily “intrances” the dancer to keep moving until she tires and is saturated with exhaustion and relief. An equivalent would be to one experiencing a good exercise workout routine that is thorough and tiring. There is further information about Zaar on the internet, please explore or contact the Temple for more details.

Zaar ritual performed by a priestess of the House of Eset and Set will be done in dedication and honor to the Neteru Nephthys. Nephthys embodies some darker aspects of Eset and womanhood that many times go neglected, shunned and misunderstood. The temple priesthood dance service is not a service for the sake of entertainment. Price of this service may vary. Time and intent also factors into this amount. The music accompaniment can vary from recorded music to simple live performance. Please use the Feedback option to inquire on this service.
