after death Egyptians believed you would have a second life because when the sun set the egyptians thought of it has a person dying and when the sun rose the egyptians thought of a person being born again and after you were mummified then the egyptians thought that you would go to the underworld and your heart would get weighed with a feather and if your heart was lighter then the feather or the exact same then your afterlife would be filled with joy and wondwerful activities but if your heart was heavier then you did alot of evil in your life and your afterlife would be miserable and filled with hard work
