In the picture below the Ankh crosses are held in cross form to explain their<br />
meaning. They represent the two crossings <strong>of</strong> the ecliptic and the Milky Way.<br />
Pharaohs as the living Horus where buried with the flail and sceptre held in the<br />
same posture since their soul would travel to the Golden Gate or Gate <strong>of</strong> Gods<br />
after dead. The Golden Gate is the crossing <strong>of</strong> the ecliptic and Milky Way near the<br />
Sagittarius - Scorpio nexus. The Silver Gate or Gate <strong>of</strong> Man on the other hand<br />
represents the crossing <strong>of</strong> the ecliptic and Milky Way near the Gemini -Taurus<br />
nexus. The Egyptians believed that the soul <strong>of</strong> man incarnated through this gate<br />
into the physical realm.<br />
Double Ankh held in cross form (right statue at Karnak).<br />
The crossed arms express the fact that the Ankh is a cross.<br />
The fact that the crossed arms are really mend to represent a cross I believe is<br />
demonstrated by sarcophaguses that show the pharaoh with crossed arms along<br />
with a big X cross depicted on his chest.
