Summary
Horus is the falcon-god, son of Osiris and Isis, born after Osiris's death. He defeats Set to avenge his father and reclaim the throne of Egypt. Horus represents the new generation, the fresh crop triumphing over drought. His eyes are the sun and moon; his Wedjat eye (restored by Thoth) is a symbol of wholeness and healing. As the rightful heir who defeats the chaos-bringer, Horus embodies legitimate kingship and justice. Every living pharaoh was called the "Horus" of his time.

Symbolic Reading
Horus = the new crop defeating old drought. His battle with Set encodes seasonal cycle: spring vigor defeats winter desiccation. His blindness (eye removed by Set) = periodic darkness; Thoth's restoration = light returns. The falcon form = vision from above, sovereignty over land.

Linguistic Root
Semitic etymology: Possibly from ḥ-r-s (to guard/protect). Horus guards the rightful order against chaos. His role as avenger = protector of justice and legitimate rule. (المصدر: raw/egyptian/قراءة_سامية_للميثولوجيا_المصرية.md)
