The crystal of the soul, Akh
Akh is drawn in the form of an ibis with a government post and means "blessed soul." It is the most complete form of soul achieved when Ka and Ba was successfully combined through a funeral ceremony in the preserved body in the tomb. And only this 'Akh' can enter the world where the gods live. In other words, 'Akh' is the most important soul and successful outcome of these six souls.

The ‘Akh’ has meanings such as 'bright light', 'beneficial', ' auspicious', and 'mercy'. Arc can move freely like the "Ba" introduced in the last column, and can come out of the tomb and cross the human world and the world of gods. Pharaoh's "Akh" defeated Apophis by shining the darkness of the universe on a heavenly ship with the sun god. Ordinary people believed that it was only possible to go to "The Field of Reed," a paradise dominated by Osiris, the god of the afterlife.
Ark believed that he could not only cross between reality and the world of gods, but also have a real impact on the real world. So, along with "Ba," there was also a ghost of "Akh." Arc is the existence of light, and it can bring good luck to living people, but it can also bring bad luck, so a stone monument with a spell to prevent the ominous "Akh" was erected.

In addition, the properties of the arc were distinguished according to its brightness. Therefore, in order to become a bright and bright arc, a special ceremony organized by the priest and a memorial service table to satisfy the arc were needed. The pyramids of Unas, the ninth pharaoh of the 5th Dynasty of the ancient kingdom, are engraved with spells that help lead the pharaoh to the heavenly world where the gods live. According to the Pyramid Text found in the pyramid and the Book of the Dead, a collection of New Kingdom’s spells, it was mentioned that pharaohs transform into perfect arcs in the body of the goddess Nut in the sky with stars in the night sky. And it is still said that this pharaoh's 'akh' shines brighter and brighter than anyone else.
