During this ceremony, the heart of the deceased was weighed against the feather of Maat, the goddess of truth, justice, and cosmic order. The heart represented the individual's moral conscience and actions in life, while the feather symbolized truth and divine harmony. The scales were overseen by Anubis, the god of mummification and the afterlife, and Thoth, the god of wisdom and writing.
If the heart was found to be lighter than the feather, it meant that the individual had lived a righteous life in accordance with Maat's principles. In this case, the soul was deemed worthy to continue its journey into the afterlife, where it would join the gods and enjoy eternal bliss. However, if the heart was heavier than the feather, it indicated that the individual had committed sins or transgressions in life. In this case, the soul would be devoured by the monster Ammit, a creature with the head of a crocodile, the body of a lion, and the hindquarters of a hippopotamus, and the individual would cease to exist in the afterlife.
The Weighing of the Heart ceremony was depicted in numerous ancient Egyptian texts, including the Book of the Dead and the Book of Going Forth by Day (more commonly known as the Book of the Dead). These texts contained spells, prayers, and instructions designed to assist the deceased in navigating the challenges of the afterlife and achieving a favorable outcome in the Judgment of the Dead.
