Isis (/ˈaɪsɪs/; Ancient Greek: Ἶσις IPA: [îː.sis]; original Egyptian pronunciation more likely "Aset" or "Iset") is a goddess from the polytheistic pantheon of Egypt. She was first worshiped in Ancient Egyptian religion, and later her worship spread throughout the Roman Empire and the greater Greco-Roman world. Isis is still widely worshiped by many pagans today in diverse religious contexts; including a number of distinct pagan religions, the modern Goddess movement, and interfaith organizations such as the Fellowship of Isis.
Isis was worshipped as the ideal mother and wife as well as the patroness of nature and magic. She was the friend of slaves, sinners, artisans and the downtrodden, but she also listened to the prayers of the wealthy, maidens, aristocrats and rulers. Isis is often depicted as the mother of Horus, the falcon-headed deity associated with king and kingship (although in some traditions Horus's mother was Hathor). Isis is also known as protector of the dead and goddess of children.
42 Isis /ˈaɪsᵻs/ is a large main-belt asteroid, measuring 100.2 km in diameter. It was discovered by N.R. Pogson on May 23, 1856, at Oxford. It was Pogson's first asteroid discovery.
The asteroid's name was chosen by Manuel John Johnson, director of the Radcliffe Observatory in Oxford. Although Isis is the name of an Egyptian goddess, the name was chosen in homage to Pogson's astronomer daughter, (Elizabeth) Isis Pogson. In addition, the Isis is the stretch of the River Thames that runs through Oxford.
The light curve inversion technique, when applied to photometric observations of this asteroid, show multiple local irregularities. The overall shape displays little elongation, with a ratio between the major and minor axes equal to 1.1. The measured rotation period for this model is 13.59701 hours. The spectrum of 42 Isis reveals the strong presence of the mineral Olivine, a relatively rarity in the asteroid belt.
Isis is a goddess from the polytheistic pantheon of Egypt.

Purify
From addiction to the memory
Of the things you've left undone.
The sorrow seems to last forever.
(so I had what I deserved)
What I deserve, what I deserve
Look in time or watch it die
And die and I
Should I slide away or stay awake (stay awake)
For today (today), for yesterday (for all my wrongs)
For what it takes (I will wait)
Just once around the sun (the sun)
I'm stuck two inches closer
To find myself
Too far to clash and too much void
To lay out in light both the shades
To sign my passage
To say a word
And she says
"Today I'm leaving without you".
A detachment I can't accept
So shine with confidence
The right is yours and I don't have
Time to complain, voice to explain so..
There's a truth that is whispered
I hold it back to go on to
A place where you were seen doing it
This is my light
I'll burst tonight
