I was browsing through Youtube and these commercials popped up. They literarily creeped me out.
I can't believe these commercials are playing. To the average viewer, they may just seem dumb and even maybe offensive. I can't put my finger on it,
but something is creepy about commercials that use OBVIOUS ancient symbolism. I mean aren't there other 'fun, creative' ways to market a solar energy
company other than a SUN GOD from ancient Egypt?
Ra is seen in these commercials as a slave to the human. In one commercial he is vacuuming and the other he is seen trimming bushes outside. Besides
the use of Ra, his staff in the background and owls on the shelfs of the first commercial can be seen.
SolarCity --- At Home with Ra: Fish Tank Diet.
SolarCity --- At Home with Ra: Horticulture
I don't have in-depth knowledge of Egyptian symbolism and what it may mean. I'm hoping this forum may help reveal the mystery. Why is SolarCity using
Ra?.....Other than it seeming weird, offensive and creepy.
What do you think of this?

Ra is the god of the sun, they are a solar company that uses the said sun...
They have the power of the sun at their service, hence Ra doing the chores.
Don't make a mountain out of it.

The only people who should be a little bothered by this would be people who worship in the Egyptian pantheon. But, even then, you'd have to be pretty
devoid of a sense of humor to be irate about it.
