Mehet-Weret was a goddess of the sky, and represented the waterway in the heavens, sailed upon by both the sun god and the king. The Egyptians called the Milky Way the “Nile in the Sky,” and believed it to flow from the udders of Mehet-Weret, the great celestial cow.
The Egyptians saw the upper atmosphere and the heavens as a body of water, with the horizons as its banks. Deities were thought to "transverse the body of Mehet-Weret," often sailing on boats. Mehet-Weret was water and also traveled on this water, bringing it to the Egyptians the form of the yearly inundation of the Nile.
Mehet-Weret was thought to give birth to the god Ra each day and lift him up between her horns, carrying him with her through the sky. Sometimes Mehet-Weret appears in birthing scenes as a herald of imminent birth. Parallels were drawn between floods caused by Mehet-Weret and the waters of the amniotic sac breaking, a signal that a child will soon emerge.
In later times she was thought to be an aspect of Hathor.
