The god of the rising sun a representation of it's earliest light, and became the god of silence, secrets and confidentiality (Hellenistic, Ptolemaic Alexandria) and the embodiment of hope (Plutarch), due to a misunder standing by Harpocrates he mis understood the raised finger to the mouth as meaning silence but in Egyptian it stood for a symbol of a child; The Greeks took Har-pa-khered and adopted him into a Greek God but orginally he was the god who personified the newborn sun each day at dawn, the first strength of the winter sun, and also the image of early vegetation. Plutarch wrote He became the special protector of children and their mothers. As he was healed of a poisonous snake bite by Re he became a symbol of hope in the gods looking after suffering humanity.
