  HEKA, Magie et envoûtement dans l'Égypte ancienne
Chaque Égyptien est à sa manière un magicien, et participe de cette puissance que les dieux ont donné aux hommes pour agir sur le réel, le Heka.
Sculpter une statue est en effet faire œuvre de Heka, car l'Égyptien n'y voit ni commémoration, ni esthétique, mais un moyen de proroger magiquement pour l'éternité un peu de l'existence de son modèle.
Tracer des hiéroglyphes est aussi faire œuvre de Heka, car la maîtrise du mot écrit confère de la puissance sur la chose décrite, et la pérennité extraordinaire du système graphique égyptien, lourd, compliqué, incommode, s'explique essentiellement par la valeur magique de cette écriture.

  Heka - Free Encyclopedia of Thelema
Heka literally means activating the Ka, which egyptians thought was how magic worked, the Ka being an aspect of the soul which embodied personality, but more significantly also power and influence, particularly in the case of the Ka of gods.
Consequently, Heka was said to have battled and conquered two serpents, and was usually depicted as a man choking two entwined serpents.
As the one who activates Ka, Heka was also said to be the son of Atum, the creator of things in general, or occasionally the son of Chnum, who created specific individual Ba (another aspect of the soul).

 The White Goddess - Articles - Heka - Magic or 'Magickal/Meaningful Speech'
Heka is usually translated as meaning 'magic', however it is a concept that is so much more, another translation for heka is 'Art of the Mouth', although a better meaning could be 'magical/meaningful speech'.
Heka is personified by the male Netjer, Heka, who is often depicted in human form, sometimes with the signs that write his name on his head.
The Netjer Heka is also connected to several of the creation myths, in the boat of Sun God or occasionally holding the earth and sky apart in place of Shu or shown behind the throne of Osiris.

 Heka - Magic in Ancient Egypt
Heka acted together with Hu, the principle of Divine Utterance, and Sia (divine omniscience)which all three were necessary for the King´s creative powers during the Old Kingdom.
Heka is at the center of Creation, which is manifested every day as he accompanies Re in the Sunboat across the sky, and each night, protecting Wesir (Gr: Osiris) in the netherworld against the separation of heaven and earth, thus steadily recreating existence.
Heka was not only particular to the deity who acted from and with it, humans too have life force and can of course use heka to come into contact with the divine.

 Chapter 2: Practitioners
How much Heka is regained by the Practitioner is determined by his status (Low, Partial or Full), how many Heka-Generating K/S Areas he has, as well as what sort of activity he is participating in to regain his Heka.
In addition to their normal store of Heka and the methods of regaining Heka, Mental Practitioners who are skilled both in the Dweomercraft and Magick K/S Areas may concentrate their Heka, thus regaining it at a faster rate as well as attaining more Heka, for a time, than they would otherwise.
To determine Heka from a Full Practitioner’s major School (as determined by the player, and he must select from a School in which he has at least had an Apprenticeship Path in), add STEEP and his Mnemonic Category to arrive at the Heka generated therefrom.

 ANCIENT EGYPT : To Become a Magician
Egyptology must bear the exercise too, for we know that in Ancient Egypt magic ("heka") was the cornerstone of all major and minor state cults as well as being crucial in the personal piety of the commoner.
Divine kingship (the masculine power of the hunter combined with the sacredness of the primeval goddess) was aiming at the theo-political unity of the state though the institutions of Pharaoh and his will to manifest his divine presence, first as Horus and next as a god in monumental and other sublime artworks everywhere in Egypt.
Heka was the "protection" of this intelligent creative speech against anything or anybody trying to counter it.

 Egiptología: Heka, la magia del Egipcio Antiguo
Heka era magia religiosa, estaba integrada a la religión y, como ésta, se encontraba presente a diario en la vida cotidiana de los egipcios.
En la práctica heka no era algo que los egipcios usaran a la ligera o decidieran ignorar; por ser un transporte poderoso de fuerza y energía, la magia era utilizada con responsabilidad, manteniendo el respeto a todos los seres del Universo carnal y divino.
Por ejemplo para curar a un enfermo se solía escribir una oración de heka en la comida que luego se le daría a consumir al paciente, sanando de esta manera su cuerpo espiritual y físico.

 The House of Netjer Forums: Mute Heka
The answer was that a mute person can do heka, and I believe the reasoning is that because all prayers are heka, even the unsaid ones, that being mute wouldn't necessarily make heka impossible.
For example, the KO offering heka which can be invoked over meals includes sound caused by the snapping of fingers, and Kai-Imakhu Sesha weaves heka with his music.
The shaking of a sistrum is another instance of sound-based heka which does not involve the voice; it banishes demons, invokes joy, and calms the ntjrw all at once- and it's all in the wrist.^_~

Success and Failure Because the Heka forger is manipulating Heka at a fundamental level during the creation of a permanent item, success and failure are not very clearly defined.
