MAÀT
In ancient Egyptian mythology, Ma’at is the goddess who personifies
the concepts of balance, harmony, truth, order, wisdom and integrity.
Egyptians believed that without Ma’at there would be primal chaos,
ending the world.
In art, Ma’at is depicted as a woman with wings, with an ostrich feather
as her headdress. The ostrich feather is her symbol.
Ma’at was judge at the Egyptian underworld. The hearts of the dead were
weighed against the Feather of Ma’at to determine whether the deceased
was worthy of the kingdom of Osiris. If the heart weighed the same as
Ma’at, the deceased moved on to the afterlife. A heart which was unworthy
was devoured by the demon, Amit.
