Anubis
God of mummification, the dead, and guide to the afterlife. Anubis presides over the weighing of hearts against Ma'at's feather in judgment. His jackal form associates him with cemeteries and the liminal space between life and death. Anubis represents the psychopomp who guides souls, the ritualist who preserves the dead, and the guardian of sacred mysteries. His black color symbolizes regeneration and the fertile Nile mud.
