Sacred Geometry on Instagram: "Artistic representations of Ancient Egypt display a hall where the dead were judged for their worthiness to enter the afterlife. The center of the dead person's soul, his heart, was weighed on a scale against Ma'at's feather.

Typically, the feather was a symbol of Ma'at, the Goddess of Truth and Order. The Goddess was always shown wearing an ostrich feather in her hair. The feather whose tip bends under its own weight was itself emblematic of it.

If the heart were free from the impurities of sin and therefore lighter than the penalty, the dead person could enter eternal life after death. Other Gods in the trial room who were part of the court overseeing the weighing of the heart were also depicted holding a feather.

Digital reproduction of a scene from the Book of the Dead, taken from the Papyrus of Ani dating from c. 1250 BC. It depicts Ani during the Weighing of the Heart before the gods in the underworld and contains the spells he’d need to safely pass this judgement. Ani is shown with his wife Tutu, reciting the spell to ask his heart not to betray him to the gods and for it to be found in balance with the feather personifying Maat, truth and justice.
