<b>PJ Jewelry Ancient Egyptian Symbol Eye of Horus Ankh Cross Protection Wedding Band Ring for Men</b> <br> <br> <b>Udjat - Eye of Horus </b> <br>The sound eye of Horus. Symbolizes healing and protection. The eye is personified in the goddess Wadjet (also written as Wedjat,Uadjet,Wedjoyet,Edjo or Uto and as The Eye of Ra or "Udjat"). Horus was the ancient Egyptian sky god who was usually depicted as a falcon. His right eye was associated with the sun Ra. The eye symbol represents the marking around a Peregrine Falcon's eye that includes the "teardrop" marking sometimes found below the eye. The mirror image, or left eye, sometimes represented the moon and the god Djehuti (Thoth). <br> <br> <b>Ankh :Symbol of eternal life. The gods are often seen holding an ankh to someone's lips this is considered to be an offering of "The Breath of Life". The breath you will need in the afterlife.</b> <br>The Ankh appears frequently in Egyptian tomb paintings and other art, often at the fingertips of a god or goddess in images that represent the deities of the afterlife conferring the gift of life on the dead person's mummy; this is thought to symbolize the act of conception. Additionally, an ankh was often carried by Egyptians as an amulet, either alone, or in connection with two other hieroglyphs that mean "strength" and "health". Mirrors of beaten metal were also often made in the shape of an ankh, either for decorative reasons or to symbolize a perceived view into another world. <br> The ankh was almost never drawn in silver; as a sun-symbol, the Egyptians almost invariably crafted important examples of it (for tombs or other purposes) from the metal they most associated with the sun, gold. A similar metal such as copper, burnished to a high sheen, was also sometimes used. <br> <br> <b>PJ Jewelry has a broad range of fashion jewelry such as bracelets,necklaces,rings, earrings and other jewelry accessories.
