AN EGYPT INITIATION INTO MYTHOLOGY, ANCIENT MYSTERIES AND RITUAL
AN EGYPT INITIATION INTO MYTHOLOGY, ANCIENT MYSTERIES AND RITUAL
We are naturally drawn to the Mystery— that which lies hidden and the mystical essence that beckons our Spirit towards it. This calling to commune with the Great Unknown carries the wisdom of the ages and the sacred teachings of the Cosmos ready to assist us in our journey of remembrance.
Khemet (Egypt) has been magnetizing people towards it, those who are attuned to the call of these Holy Lands which carries and embodies our origin stories from the ancient past. The teachings are embedded in the temples and the messages are carried in the desert sands and in the life-giving waters of the Nile. There are keys to this place that not only open the gates of our memory palaces but also awaken pathways in our consciousness to help us in this present day as we work towards tending and building the world we wish to cultivate.
The ancient Egyptians were adept at understanding and maintaining the interdependent relationships between the human world, the natural world, and the divine world. They were devoted to co-creating heaven on earth and believed that the collaboration of these three worlds was key to this creation. Through the study of the cosmos, they tended to these relations in the temples by way of offerings, hymns, songs, prayers, and rituals. Perhaps these approaches can assist us in these times of Great Transition.
Regardless of what seems to be happening in these times, Khemet is calling us for Initiation. And by nature, as we step forward on the initiatory path, the process of healing, transformation, and renewal occurs.
So we begin here— humbly and respectfully in reverence to the journey ahead. We go to make offerings. We tread lightly in gratitude. We keep our eyes open with ears to deeply listen. We come with a humble heart. And from this place, we open ourselves to the most memorable, transformational, and activational experiences to unfold in our lives.
In Service and Reverence,

Due to the intimate nature of this expedition and our complete reverence to these Holy lands,
there are a limited amount of spaces.
FULFILL YOUR LIFELONG DREAM TO VISIT EGYPT (KNOWN IN ANCIENT TIMES AS KHEMET) WITH A GROUP OF ADVANCED SPIRITUAL SEEKERS, ADEPTS, PRIESTESSES, SCIENTISTS, AND SEERS.
ENGAGE IN POWERFUL RITUALS IN THE SPECIFIC TEMPLES AND CHAMBERS DESIGNED FOR INITIATION.
UNLOCK ANCIENT SECRETS OF SOUND HEALING, RITUAL MAGIC AND SPIRITUAL ENERGY.
Deep in your soul, you likely know that Khemet holds important spiritual keys to our evolution as a species and to your spiritual awakening. Many people experience a deep sense of remembrance when traveling to Khemet, activating soul memories that can revitalize our current lives.
Once the most advanced culture on the planet and the birthplace of so much of what we call modern civilization, ancient Egyptians had knowledge of initiatory practices, sound healing techniques, and architectural feats that we still cannot fathom now.
A culture of initiation runs deep into Egyptian history and is behind the awesome temples that served as centers for initiation, healing, and worship.
Too often, though, Khemet tourism becomes a superficial experience focused on more materialistic and martial understandings of Khemet’s history. It can be very difficult to get any esoteric, spiritual, or magical knowledge from guides trained in tourism schools. The sacred sites are also often filled with less conscious tourists who are seeking mainly photos for their album rather than an elevating spiritual experience.
That’s why it is so profound and valuable to go to Khemet not just with a quality guide who can unveil the land’s deeper secrets but to go with an advanced community of seekers who understand how to create sacred space, engage in ceremonial ritual, and create the higher vibration spaces that allow a spiritual blossoming. It’s also vital to have private ceremonial time at the most sacred sites to experience their full holy power.
On the Sacred Journey to Khemet, we will be blessed by an extraordinary group of teachers, guides, and masters, representing deep knowledge of Khemet, esoteric healing practices, and true ritual magic. Our intention is to engage in a deep activation and initiation into the Kemetic mysteries. It will be a spiritual pilgrimage that is profound for all who attend. You will not leave as the same person that began the journey.
If you are eager to explore the heights, depths, and power of Kemetic sacred culture, we are creating this trip with world-leading experts in different fields coming together for a journey to the heart of Khemet: a 3-day Pre-Pilgrimage Retreat in Cairo followed by a 14-day Nile sailing cruise to the major temples, open to 70 people by application only.
This Sacred Journey is for dedicated spiritual aspirants who want your trip to Khemet to elevate your consciousness AND contribute to the re-activation the temples themselves to serve humanity more broadly again.
