September 9,2025# Ancient Egyptian concepts of rebirth were not a literal wheel of time, but rather a cyclical understanding of life, death, and the afterlife inspired by natural phenomena like the daily rising of the sun and the annual flooding of the Nile. The sun god Re's daily journey into the underworld and rebirth each morning served as a key metaphor for this eternal cycle of death and renewal. Another symbol of this endless cycle is the ouroboros, a serpent eating its own tail, depicted in the Book of the Dead, which was adopted by later cultures to symbolize cyclical existence.Key Elements of the Egyptian Rebirth CycleNatural Cycles:The Egyptians observed the regular cycles of nature, such as the daily passage of the sun, the annual Nile flood, and the growth and decay of plants, to understand life as a recurring, renewing process. The Journey of the Sun:The sun god Re's journey into the underworld (Duat) at dusk and his subsequent rebirth each dawn was a powerful symbol of the cycle from life, through death, to renewed existence. Osiris and the Afterlife:The god Osiris, lord of the underworld, was also a symbol of death and rebirth, with his own resurrection from his dismembered body by Isis representing eternal life. The Ouroboros Symbol:The ancient symbol of the ouroboros, found in the Book of the Dead, depicts a serpent consuming its own tail, representing eternal renewal and the cyclical nature of existence, similar to how Atum, the sun god, is reborn each morning. The Soul's Journey:The journey to the afterlife was considered a perilous transition, and Egyptians prepared the deceased with funerary artifacts and rituals to ensure their successful passage and rebirth into a new form of existence. Comparison to the Wheel of TimeThe concept of a "wheel of time" is a modern literary concept from Robert Jordan's fantasy series, where time is symbolized by a wheel with seven spokes, each representing an age, and time itself is seen as cyclical. While Jordan's Wheel of Time shares the ancient Egyptian belief in cyclical existence and the concept of eternal return, his "wheel" is a more structured, narrative device that reflects his story's specific plot and themes.

The auspicious iconography of the wheel first appeared in Indus Valley (2500 BCE) as a solar symbol, which represents the phenomena of motion, continuity and change of the universe. Buddhism later adapted this symbol to represent “the wheel of dharma” of Buddha's teaching.Mordad 14, 1404 AP. The symbol of the ouroboros has joined heaven and hell, Chronos and cosmos, life and death for millennia. The oldest depiction of the ouroboros is found in the ancient Egyptian Book of the Dead, where at the beginning, Atum, the sun god, descends from chaos-torn waters as a snake that rebirths itself every morning. The sun symbolizes destruction and fire, but also allows life on earth to be created.
