Egyptian Winged Scarab Magnet - 2.5"

Winged scarabs, meant to guarantee the rebirth of the deceased, were very popular funerary amulets. The ancient Egyptians believed that the scarab was the earthly manifestation of the god Khepri, and pushed the sun across the sky each day, only to disappear and magically re-appear the next morning. As such, it is a powerful amulet for self-creation, transformation, and re-birth. They were worn or carried by the living, and also buried with the dead to help them on their way to the afterlife.
