In astrology, Anubis, inspired by the ancient Egyptian deity known as the god of the afterlife and mummification, governs the themes of transformation, protection, and the journey through the unknown. Often associated with the energies of Scorpio and the Eighth House, Anubis represents the deep, psychological transformations that occur when one confronts their fears and embraces change. He serves as a guide through the metaphorical underworld of the subconscious, aiding in the release of ego-bound attachments and ushering in a cycle of rebirth and renewal. In alignments and transits, Anubis highlights opportunities for profound personal growth and the purging of outdated patterns, encouraging a deeper understanding of one’s inner self and the mysteries of life and death.
