My Sacred Egypt Tour

Egypt is one of the last standing temple cultures from our ancient, sacred past. All throughout Egypt, beautiful stone-cut temples still stand, some of which were built over 4,000 years ago!

If you are a mystic or a priestess soul, you will very likely have a profound sense of remembrance once you step onto the sacred grounds of these sites.

The first temple I visited was the Isis temple at Philae. This temple is dedicated to the Goddess Isis and her regenerative powers.

The temple was moved from its original place when the Egyptians built the Aswan Dam to stop the Nile from flooding. They took this temple apart piece by piece and miraculously moved it to where it sits now, in Agilkia Island, a safe distance from the rising waters.

Despite being moved, you can still fee the profound sacredness that has permeated the ancient stone walls. We had left our Dahabiyya (our hose boat on the Nile) at 4 am that morning to get to the temple before anyone else arrived. The moment I stepped foot onto the grounds, tears of recognition welled up in my eyes. My heart began to overflow with love, gratitude and sacred remembrance. This, the temple, is where I have spent many lifetimes and what I have striven to re-create in this one.

Our group entered the Innermost Sanctum just before dawn and circled around the chest-high offering stone. I lit some incense as I called to the ancestors, honoring them and asking for their permission and blessings to be on this land. I then poured an offering of sacred waters upon the altar. A friend had given me a jar of water from the sacred well at Glastonbury and I had also collected some from our waters here in Sedona. As I poured a small amount of water on the offering stone, I prayed, “May you never thirst,” to the ancestors and the ancient ones that still watch over this place. Then, we began to tone and offer up sacred song to awaken and align our hearts and spirits with the sacred spirit of this temple and this land.

A Romantic Journey Down the Nile

Traveling throughout Egypt on a romantic house boat makes this journey pleasant, romantic and a breeze. The warm Egyptian air filled my heart with a sense of magic and wonder as we sailed through Aswan and that many villages along the Nile. We stopped off at various places to swim and sunbathe and even ate fish caught directly off our boat. Quickly,  I fell in love with this sacred land. As my spirit settled, my heart began to open to these beautiful people and to the magic and mystery of the megalithic temples and sacred sites.

Megalithic Temples in Egypt:

My favorite temples are the oldest ones—the ones that date back 2,000 – 4,000 years. These older temples have a distinctive megalithic structure that defies the old idea that they were forged with copper chisels. The image below is from the Valley Temple, which lies at the base of the Sphinx. This temple displays characteristics of megalithic temples across the globe, with nipple-like protuberances and stone that is cut to bend corners.

The Megalithic Osirion:

Another one of my favorite Megalithic temple sites is the Osirion. This temple is set deep into the ground; perhaps it was built so long ago that the sands of Egypt rose thirty to forty feet.

What stands out about the Osirion are the huge blocks of stone that are precision cut. You can still see sharp edges on them all and they fit together without room for even a hair to go in between them. Archaeologists say that the Osirion likely descends a few floors, but the water that continues to fill it prevents anyone from figuring this out. What is very interesting is that scientists have tested the water and determined that it is not from the Nile, nor is it from local sources. Additionally, the water is said to have healing properties as one of the archaeologists studying it, drank the water (after he purified it) and it healed his eyesight. One beautiful thing about the Osirion is that this is where we see the Flower of Life sacred geometrical image mysteriously burned into the stone with a red-ocher kind of color. I took a picture of it here and if you look really close, you can see it.

Here is a gallery of just some of the magical pictures from the Sacred Egypt Trip. Images cannot convey the magnificence of this place, but I hope you can glean some of its magic here.

This is the trip of a lifetime and the most magical place I have visited on all my world travels. Perhaps some of you would like to join us on our next adventure!

The Colossi of Memnon:

The great megalithic Colossi of Memnon remain a mystery as these huge megalithic statues show signs of being hit by extreme heat that melted and bubbled the stone on just one side. The Colossi of Memnon are carved from a single block of granite carved as Ramses II, so our tour guide said and they show signs of being melted and charred.

The Dendara Light Bulbs:

Another of the most amazing temples is the Dendara Temple in Abydos which shows the famous “Dendara Light bulbs”. These images are carved on the walls of an underground “crypt” and show no signs of smoke from torches, candles, or other flames

The images seem to clearly depicts some form of light, the snakes looking like filaments, the Jed column looking like a transformer and there is even a cord connecting to a box which may have housed the vinegar-based batteries.

Is Egypt Safe?

I had wondered before I left if Egypt was safe and after visiting for two weeks, I found the people to be some of the most open-hearted and loving I have ever met. You do not feel any of the world’s turmoil in Egypt. It feels like they highly value their tourists and the industry and protect it like family. I was pleasantly surprised and feel that I could travel there alone if I wished, although I would prefer at least one Egyptian person as a guide male or female to help with the language, travel and basic needs one has while getting around.

The only thing I felt that one needs to watch out for are the local people who sell to the tourists and some of them will try to charge you much more for everything unless you are willing to haggle. Haggle culture is ingrained in the tourist industry in Egypt and for the most part, you can slash the tourist price in half for whatever they ask on the streets. If you have an Egyptian guide, they can help you purchase things and not get ripped off. As far as safety goes, I felt very safe there. I would not go out at night in a dark alley there just as I would not here in America, but there are thousands of tourists in busses, boats and in the streets that walk around no problem.

COMING SOON! EGYPT TOUR:

Dendara Abydos Small Temple

The temples activated codes of remembrance deep within my soul and I was given a gift from the Goddess of my radiant heart back. This gift is priceless and well worth the trip. She is calling me back already and I am currently arranging a Pilgrimage as early as this December and also in the Spring of 2025.
