Ankh Charm The ankh was a symbol of eternal life in ancient Egypt. In Egyptian, the word "ankh" means "life". The ankh resembles a cross with a loop at the top and represented eternity when positioned in the hands of deities. The symbol dates back to the establishment of the cults of the deities Isis and Osiris in the Early Dynastic Period. The original meaning of the symbol was lost in later periods, but it remained a constant hieroglyphic insignia for life. The ankh was used in rituals, especially in those involving the royal cults, and it had special significance when used in various temple ceremonies. Today, the ankh is just as powerful when in the hands of someone who believes in it. The GODDESSY "ankh" charm is an enchantingly magical amulet, which measures 1 9/16" in length by 9/16" in width, and comes with an elastic cord, which may be adjusted to any size desired.
