Omschrijving

The ankh is one of the most iconic talismans in human history. This book offers a historical lens on the ankh, showcasing its ancient evolution from a talisman and key to life to a cornerstone of modern spirituality.

"The ankh is one of the most recognized spiritual symbols in the world. Its antiquity cannot be measured." --from the introduction by Lon Milo DuQuette, author of The Tarot Architect

Unlock the ancient mysteries of one of history's most potent symbols. The cross and loop or circle symbol known as the ankh has come to be one of the most widely recognized symbols in the world--honored and/or used in rituals by many religions in many cultures around the globe and through time. In Ankh, embark on a journey from the sun-drenched sands of ancient Egypt to the modern spiritual landscape. With an insightful introduction by Lon Milo DuQuette--who highlights the ankh's powerful resurgence as an antiestablishment, antiwar symbol in the '60s--this book delves into the ankh's profound origins, exploring its integrated symbolism of the circle and the cross, representing continuity, infinity, intersection, and union. Discover its pervasive presence in Egyptian art and as a sacred object, and witness its surprising endurance across cultures and time.

For many esotericists, the ankh's form, reminiscent of a simple sandal strap, whispers a profound secret: Life is a journey, a willed commitment to move forward, to become something greater. This isn't just history; it's a guide to practical magic. Learn to consecrate your own ankh as a ritual tool, amulet, or altar piece; explore its use as a prayer bead; or even harness its power as a pendulum. Ankh invites you to experience the living magic of this eternal symbol and take your next step.
