Anubis is a man with the head of a jackal, or a jackal lying down with its head up. His ears are usually pointed, giving the impression of alertness. His colors are purple and yellow. He wears a purple nemyss that is edged in white. His color is yellow and purple. His anklets and armlets are gold. His waistband is yellow with purple stripes. His tunic is yellow with patches of black hair. Anubis holds a blue Phoenix Wand and ankh. A lion's tail hangs from the back of his waistband. His skin has red hues. Anubis is found in the Hall of Truth as Thoth's companion. When a man's heart was weighed against a feather by Maat and the man's heart failed, Anubis ate the heart. If the heart was lighter than the feather, it passed, and Anubis would become the man's guide and protector. Along this line, Egyptians honored Anubis as the protector of the dead and grave sites. Legend also has it that Anubis took on the head of a jackal in order to help Isis locate the missing pieces of Osiris's body. Osiris is the father of Anubis and Nephthys is his mother. Anubis holds the positions of Sentinel and Kerux. Anubis of the West, Ano-Oobi Em-Remen-Te, is the Watcher Without in the position of Sentinel. The Sentinel is in charge of the Candidate waiting to enter the Temple, and the outer opening of the Temple. Anubis of the East, Ano-Oobist Empe-Eeb-Te, is the Watcher of the Gods in the position of Kerux. The Kerux admits the Fraters and Sorors into the Temple and guards the inner sides of the Temple. He guides the Candidate and watches over the path of the Candidate. Fill in the Anubis god form on the next page in the appropriate colors.
