The Ankh
Element: Water and Air
The ankh, also known as the Key of Life, is probably one of the most easily recognizable and best known ancient Egyptian symbols. It represents eternal life and in many ancient carvings Egyptian deities and Pharaoh's are shown holding it.
While the origins of the Ankh are unclear, archeologists say that in the ancient language the word means quite literally "Life". One theory as to the symbol itself says that the loop on top represents the womb (feminine) while the cross at the bottom represents the penis (male) and when the two are put together life is formed from it. It is also said to symbolize the elements of both water and air. In pagan traditions these element are considered life giving.
When the Ankh is used as an amulet it is believed to give the wearer good health and longevity and protection against evil and negative energy.
