If the person being judged fails, the heart of the judged is eaten by Am'mit. If the heart is the same weight or lighter than that of the feather, the deceased goes on to the boat of Ra or the Fields of Wesir. If the heart is heavier, this indicates that the person did not live by the tenants of Ma'at and their heart is eaten. The eating of the heart causes the person to not exist. Non existence to an ancient Egyptian was a worse fate than any hell.
Some Eastern religions have a different idea.
It was Auset's magic that reanimated Ausir's corpse long enough for her to conceive a son. The solor disk headress was picked up in later art and converted to a halo. A common feature of coffin or sarcophagus art, especially from the Middle Kingdom, was the inclusion of divine wings wrapped around the deceased. This idea of protective wings surrounding the body was developed throughout the history of dynastic Egypt. The wings were either across the chest, as shown here , or wrapped round the coffin from the sides.
