Anubis
Egyptian God of Underworld and of Death
The Weighing of the Heart of Man Ritual
When one dies the heart is weighed against the purity of a Ma'at thought feather,
If the heart weighs more than the idea or thought, it is deemed to be more damaging than the good it brings and therefore isn't allowed to continue existence and is devoured by Ammit!
This is a way to break generational curses and stop hurtful things at the root or source of them without letting them continue to plague and hurt our families, our worlds, our lives and our souls.
When a heart weighed more heavily, it could mean that it has dealt with a lot of hurt, a lot of grief in that lifetime and another should not be subject to go through that kind of hurt and pain.

APOPHIS
Deity of Evil, Death and Destruction
This guy shouldn't be recognized but he's the most important piece of Egyptian mythology that is often hidden or denied due to his nature. The ancient Egyptians fear him to the point that they preform daily rituals to curse him. However, he is known as the chaos serpent that never dies because no matter what curses or ill wills they wish or throw or send to him, it can only slow him down on his mission of destruction.
This one should be thought of (when problems arise with it) as everything and anything traumatic that one has ever went through. At it's most severe, it seems like there is not an escape from it all. Things one has lost, people who have died, and all the sorrow that in one's existence and life is what he feels like. On the other hand, he can be about self understanding and finding oneself despite anything else. A word of advice is to stop running away.
