In ancient days, the papyrus plant, which once lined the Nile, was a hieroglyphic emblem for Lower Egypt, especially that Nile Delta swampland. It also served as a protective emblem from crocodiles, lending new meaning to Moses' cradle on the Nile, formed from papyrus. This symbol (shown here) can be used in a variety of ways to create a protective talisman.
* Draw the hieroglyph on parchment paper and carry it.
* For intensive protection, draw the hieroglyph onto the body with henna, or if danger is constant, consider a tattoo.
* Carry a photograph of living papyrus plants as a talisman or post it in a prominent location.
