Metaphysical Properties: In today's time, Scarab Amulets are worn as symbols of renewal, regeneration & 'new beginnings' especially during periods of stress during 'crossover' such as divorce, change of career, change of life-style, the onset of adulthood (primarily womanhood), menopause, motherhood, marriage, and like related periods - traditionally hung on leather for it's 'earthing' effect, and made of semi-precious gemstone (for its soothing 'soapy' feel) and rubbed with the left-hand (the arm over the heart is protective & healing) to soothe and calm the spirit and aid in the acceptance of the period of 'new beginning' - much like the Sun rising to face a New Day.

Mythological: A fascinating part of God’s wonderful creation, according to Egyptian doctrine, the dung beetle rolling his ball was considered illustrative of the Sun’s heavenly circuit and its daily self-renewal. Hence, a symbolical scarab carrying a Solar disk upon its back represented the Sun’s cycle through the sky.
Scarabs were also symbolic of resurrection, directly linked with the rising of the Sun. In fact, since the scarab was spiritually connected with the Sun-rise, it became closely associated with the Egyptian deity Khepri–"god of the rising Sun." In every aspect, scarabs and Egyptian Solar worship were inseparable.
During the time of the Egyptians, stone-carved scarabs were used as magical amulets, supposedly aiding its wearer with the power of "eternal renewal of life." Scarabs were also employed as talismans and royal seals.
