These beautiful brass Ankh hoop earrings were specially designed not only for their beauty and originality but with the intention of enhancing the healing and spiritual potential for the wearer. 

The Ankh symbol, as an Egyptian hieroglyph, has been interpreted to represent "life" or "breath of life" (`nh = ankh) and, as the Egyptians believed that one's earthly journey was only part of an eternal life, the ankh symbolizes both mortal existence and the afterlife. It was intimately used in the temples of Isis as the symbol of transformation, of alchemy and of ritual in association with the stars and our cosmic ancestors origins and is said to mean, “Those Who from The Heavens Came to Earth”.  It’s been equated the ankh with the tjet, the "knot of Isis", a ceremonial girdle thought to represent female genitalia and symbolizing fertility which continues to be an association throughout ancient Egyptian history and beyond to the present day.The ankh represents not only the male and female genitalia but the sun coming over the horizon, and the union of heaven and earth. This association with the sun means that the ankh is traditionally drawn in gold - the color of the sun -  Its resemblance to a key gives a clue to another meaning of this magical symbol. The Egyptians believed that the afterlife was as meaningful as the present one and the ankh provided the key to the gates of death and what lay beyond. The Egyptians believed that the afterlife was a mirror image of life on earth and mirrors were thought to contain magical properties. During the Festival of the Lanterns for the goddess Neith (another deity seen with the ankh) all of Egypt would burn oil lamps through the night to reflect the stars of the sky and create a mirror image of the heavens on earth. This was done to help part the veil between the living and the dead so one could speak to those friends and loved ones who had passed on to paradise in the Field of Reeds. Mirrors were often used for divination purposes from the Middle Kingdom onwards.
