Romuva

Romuva is a polytheistic religious movement derived from the traditional mythology of the Lithuanians, attempting to reconstruct the religious rituals of the Lithuanians. Part of the Baltic Paganism, it claim to continue Baltic indigenous religious traditions which survived in folklore, customs and superstition.

Gods
Most people who call themselves Kemetics believe in multiple Egyptian Gods as being distinct beings that are able to interfere in mortals' lives. A Kemetic is not required to worship any specific god, and most Kemetics choose who they worship.

Morality
The moral system of Kemetism is called Ma'at and it's depicted in various ancient documents such as Ptahhotep's Maxims or 42 Laws of Ma'at, the latter of which had more use in afterlife as a way to prove to the Gods that you're worthy.

Afterlife
The afterlife of Ancient Egyptians is composed of the act of Judging of the heart, where the heart (ib) gets weighed on a scale against the feather of Ma'at. If it's heavier, it gets eaten by Ammit. If it's heavier, it gets annihilated by Ammit, if it's lighter, it's allowed to continue on to Field of Reeds.

Soul
The ancient Egyptians believed that animals, humans and gods have multiple "soul parts". Each of these has its own function and place in the belief. Those included:
 * Ka (Lifeforce) - Having one separates the alive from the dead, at the time of death the Ka separates from the rest of the soul and needs to be reunited and sustained afterwards.
 * Ba (Personality) - This part of the soul creates individuality. It also needs to be reunited after death.
 * Akh (Effective spirit) - Part of soul that exists when Ka and Ba are united. After death, it was commonly venerated.
 * Body - Is able to house spirit, and as such traditionally it was of high importance to either ensure its intactness (by mummification) or provide a replacement (ancestor statues)
 * Name - Traditionally ensures survival of the Akh.

Offerings and practice
Kemetism is a religion that accepts and welcomes idolatry and offerings, and as such it's very common to offer food, drink, but in the modern times also actions to various deities.
