Ankh / Wasi / and Grandfather ... the beginning, the repetition, and the continuation: -
From the white chapel (White Chapel) at Karnak Temple ..... one of the most beautiful inscriptions in which the ankh (the key to life) and the wase stick, and the Djed column were combined.
The ancient Egyptian artist portrays these three symbols combined in many inscriptions, because the three are related to the laws of the science of the origin of the universe and its development in ancient Egypt.
The ancient Egyptians believed that there are three main principles that organized the process of creating the universe and its evolution, and these principles are: -
*** The "zep tepi" .... and linguists usually translate it into the first time, but the meaning also includes the first genesis ..... and the beginnings.
*** The "neheh" .... which is the repetition (the repetition of the first generation model) and in which the laws of division are playing a big role.
*** The "Djed" ..... and it is the continuation ... that is, the universe continues to exist ... and this continuation depends mainly on the repetition of the model of the first formation in many forms, as the ancient Egyptians saw the sunrise Every new day is a repetition of the sunrise the first time at the beginning of creation, and they saw the Nile flood, then the water receded from the land of Egypt and its height from the flood water was repeated for the appearance of the Earth the first time when it rose from the eternal water
When creation begins, and without this repetition, the universe falls into the "N" Sea, and returns to its initial state when everything lurking in the Nun is in a state of chaos and darkness.
The three symbols are associated (the key to life, the wase stick, and the grandfather column)
The three fundamental principles of the origin and evolution of the universe.
The key to life (the ankh) was associated with "sab - tepe", that is, the beginnings .... especially the first blow.
And the contemplative of the Egyptian mythology finds that "Hayekit", who is one of the goddesses of the birth, was receiving the newborn at the moment of his birth and with her hand the key to life (ankh) to give him the first blow, which is the beginning of the new life of the born child, which is a repetition of the model of the first generation ..... or the moment The first blow that God deposited in man at the beginning of creation.
And the wand stick was associated with the second principle of the origins of the universe, which is the "neheh", that is, repetition, which was based on division.
Originally, the Was stick was the "six" stick, and Set was the symbol of division in the universe. The legend of Isis and Osiris tells that "Set" tore Osir's body after killing him into parts (14 pieces).
It is this division that guarantees the universe to spread and expand, and not to fall again into the abyss of Nun.
As for the grandfather column (Djed), it was the symbol of continuity ........... the continuity of the universe which is based on the previous two laws.
We notice that the three symbols are surmounted by a zigzag line, which symbolizes the wave and is usually used to denote water waves .... But the closest meaning to this context is that this wave is an energy wave
It is not a wave of water .... and here would be a symbol of cosmic energy.
