Ankh and lotus necklace gold
An Ancient Egyptian Symbol of Eternity
The Egyptian Ankh and lotus necklace
includes the lotus flower. The Lotus
flower is used to symbolize in ancient Egypt the eternity of the
soul, and the wheel of life and death. At night the lotus flower sinks
underwater and at dawn it rises.
The second symbol of the necklace is the Egyptian Ankh , known as the key of life . The Ankh repeats itself
in the center of the necklace, in the form of the sun with hands
holding the keys of life. This motive is taken from ancient wall
paintings which describes the sun beams holding keys of life and serves
them to the breathing entries of images. This is parallel to the Prana
(life force) which we receive in every breath we take.
The sun wheel at the necklace appears in the form of the seed of life which is the geometric
base of the whole creation.
