"In their 2004 book The Quick and the Dead, Andrew H. Gordon and Calvin W. Schwabe speculated that the Ankh, Djed and Was symbols have a biological basis derived from ancient cattle culture (and linked to the Egyptian belief that semen was created in the spine), thus: The Ankh - symbol of life - thoracic vertebra of a bull (seen in cross section). The Djed - symbol of stability - base on sacrum of a bull's spine. The Was - symbol of power and dominion - a staff made from a dried bull's penis.
It has been suggested that it combines the male and female symbols of Osiris (the cross) and Isis (the oval) and therefore signifies the union of heaven and earth. As a hieroglyph, it likely encompassed a range of meanings depending on context, but all of these expressions were centered around the concept of life or life force." One more nod to the Asmodean Ass-Kissers at Wikipedia who are slowly constructing the next Mask of the Beast.
Oh oh. Slag Dropped-Code and went Isis Mysteries at the tavern. Never mind that the word Tavern has evolved from Tabernacle/Tent. When you start filling out some poor Innocent's reality with the Sacred Image of Isis Mounting the Mummy - you've got to keep grinning like a monkey and keep flashing meta-signs which say: I'm not Dangerous - I'm just Eccentric. I have many University Degrees and I am Licensed to Think. Go about your drinking. Everything is Fine. The Coons have cleared the LZ. God is still in Heaven. The Devil is going to be Redeemed.

The symbol of the Ankh is always one of 2 permanent attributes of Isis, the other being the Hieroglyphic sign for "Throne," which she wears on her head. Isis means Throne. In Christ's eon of the Fish we check for validity by searching for balls, for Testiculos, under the Throne. In the Egyptian Dispensation it was the Vulva which was the Seat/Throne of Divinity. At least it was for a while. Her son Osiris, the dying and resurrecting Greenman of the Egyptian Pantheon, had his Djed Rising and his Way of the Powers was slowly dissolving hers. His Solar Shekhina was replacing her Lunar. The mysteries were swinging from the Vulva to the Phallus.

The Ankh is called a Crux Ansata or an Ansate Cross. It means a Cross with a Handle on itself. If you look at Images of Isis you can see that is how she carried it, by its handle. There are Etics who will tell you that the image is compound and made up of 2 separate but now joined elements: the Vulva of the Female and the Phallus of the Male. Many of those same Etics will tell you that the Ankh survives even today as the letter "T" in the Latin Alphabet. When you join the male with the female in one symbol you imply Sexual Congress. Intercourse. Fucking. That Supreme Mystery Moment in the Lower World which must Mirror the Transfigured Moment in the Upper World, which now, because it is United and the 2 which have become 1 can give birth to the 3rd. And Fruitful and Living Waters start their journey from on high. Alleluia.
