More about Khonsu
- Youthful God of the moon, depicted as human, but can also take the form of a hawk, because he is a God of the sky.
- On his head bears a crescent moon which cups a full moon.
- Thought to be a child of Amun and his consort Mut.
- His name means 'wanderer' which refers to the path of the Moon across the sky and his role as navigator of human destinies.
- His colour is the silvery white of the moon.
(Lawson 1996)
