Tefnut was linked to dew, rain, and mist. She provided “pure water” for the deceased in the underworld, and washed their feet. Tefnut’s tears were thought to have fallen to earth and turned into incense-bearing plants. She was prayed to in times of drought.

In the Pyramid Texts Tefnut was closely involved in the weighing of the heart of the deceased: "Tefnut has weighed the heart and Ma’at has listened, and Shu has born witness." It was said that Shu and Tefnut were two parts of one soul - Shu was supposed to carry away hunger from the deceased, and Tefnut his thirst.

She was thought to be the sister-wife of Shu, and the mother of Nut and Geb. Sometimes Tefnut's father was Amun or Ra, her mother Neith, and her consort Ptah.
