Oct 11, Day 7 -Dandarah Temple (Hathor)

Embark on our private Dahabiya (river boat) and sail to Qena.

Nestled along the Nile, the Temple of Hathor at Dendera is a radiant portal to divine love, music, and celestial wisdom. Dedicated to Hathor, the Great Mother, Goddess of Joy and the Stars, this sacred site holds the mysteries of beauty, healing, and feminine power. As we walk beneath its intricately carved ceilings, adorned with the famed Zodiac of Dendera, we step into an ancient star map that connects heaven and earth. Here, amidst the towering columns and vibrant reliefs, we attune to the temple’s harmonious frequencies, receiving Hathor’s blessings of creativity, abundance, and spiritual awakening.  

Oct 12, Day 8 -  Abydos Temple

The Temple of Abydos, a revered sanctuary of Osiris (Osir), holds the keys to the mysteries of resurrection, transformation, and eternal life. This ancient site, steeped in divine energy, is home to the enigmatic Osirion, where one of the oldest known depictions of the Flower of Life is etched into the stone—a sacred geometric pattern representing the interconnectedness of all creation. As we stand before this profound symbol, we align with the universal blueprint of life, just as initiates of the past sought deeper wisdom within these sacred halls. Walking in the footsteps of seekers who came to Abydos for renewal and ascension, we attune to the temple’s timeless currents of rebirth and cosmic awakening.

Oct 13, Day 9 -Sailing the Sacred Nile: From Qena to Esna 

Drifting upon the timeless waters of the Nile, we continue on a serene and mystical voyage from Qena to Esna, tracing the lifeblood of ancient Kemet as countless seekers and pharaohs once did. Aboard our private dahabiya, we surrender to the gentle rhythms of the river, embraced by the beauty of golden sands, lush palm groves, and the whispers of sacred temples along the shore. As we approach the Esna Lock, we witness the graceful dance of water levels shifting—an age-old passage symbolizing transformation and flow. This journey is more than a crossing; it is an initiation, inviting us to align with the currents of change, renewal, and divine harmony.

Oct 14, Day 10 - Edfu Temple and Gabel El Selsla

Our journey leads us to the Temple of Edfu, the majestic stronghold of Horus, the Falcon God, where the eternal battle between light and shadow is inscribed upon its sacred walls. Here, Horus is not only the warrior avenger but also the Divine Child, born of Isis, embodying the promise of renewal, protection, and the triumph of spirit. As we stand before his towering form, we connect with the essence of divine rebirth, inner strength, and the sacred destiny within us all.

Drifting onward, we arrive at Gebel El-Silsila, the great stone quarry where the sacred temples of Egypt were born. Here, among the echoes of ancient artisans, we honor the raw creative force that shaped the monuments of Kemet. This place of thresholds and transformation invites us to reflect on what we are building in our own lives—both seen and unseen—as we continue our sacred pilgrimage.

Oct 15, Day 11 - 

Kom Ombu Temple:  The Balance of Duality & Divine Healing

Perched along the sacred Nile, the Temple of Kom Ombo stands as a rare and powerful testament to duality and balance. This unique double temple is dedicated to two deities—Sobek, the primordial crocodile god of protection and fertility, and Horus the Elder (Heru-wer), the falcon god of divine vision and kingship. Here, opposites are honored as complementary forces, reminding us that creation arises from the dance between shadow and light, chaos and order.

Kom Ombo is also a place of healing wisdom, once home to an ancient medical school and sacred texts detailing remedies and surgical practices. As we walk through its chambers, we align with the temple’s energy of restoration, protection, and inner harmony, embracing the wisdom that true power comes from the integration of all aspects of self.

Philae Temple & Sacred Aromatherapy Chakra Ceremony

As the first light of dawn kisses the Temple of Philae, we step into the timeless sanctuary of Isis, Goddess of Magic, Healing, and Divine Love. Nestled upon the shimmering waters of the Nile, this sacred temple holds the essence of devotion and transformation. In the quiet of the morning, we attune to the echoes of ancient prayers, feeling the presence of Isis as a guide and protector on our journey.

In the evening, we deepen our experience at an Aromatherapy Oil House, where the essence of sacred flowers and plants becomes a bridge between body, spirit, and the wisdom of the ancients. Here, we immerse in a Sound & Aromatherapy Chakra Ceremony, aligning with pure botanical essences and vibrational frequencies to harmonize and awaken our energy centers. Surrounded by the timeless scents of Egypt—jasmine, blue lotus, frankincense—we open to deep healing, renewal, and the embrace of Isis’ eternal love.

Oct 17, Day 13 - Abu Simbel’s Majesty, Nile Serenity & Philae’s Enchanting Night

At the edge of the Nubian sands, the colossal temples of Abu Simbel rise in eternal majesty, a breathtaking testament to the power and devotion of Ramses II and his beloved Queen Nefertari. These sacred monuments, aligned with the cosmic rhythms of the sun, invite us to stand in awe of their timeless grandeur, where divine will and human artistry unite in perfect harmony.

After this profound visit, we return to the tranquil embrace of our private dahabiya, where we share a nourishing lunch and dinner upon the sacred waters of the Nile. As the stars begin to shimmer, we make our way back to Philae Temple, where the Sound & Light Show brings its ancient mysteries to life. Beneath the night sky, we are immersed in the echoes of history, as Isis’ sacred sanctuary awakens through light, story, and celestial beauty—offering us a final blessing before we depart.

Oct 18, Day 14- Completion Ceremony & Journey to Cairo

On our final morning aboard the dahabiya, we gather for a Completion Ceremony, honoring the profound transformations, insights, and blessings received throughout our sacred pilgrimage. In the gentle embrace of the Nile, we offer gratitude for the journey, anchoring its wisdom within before bidding farewell to these ancient waters.

Following our ceremony, we take flight to Cairo, where we will settle into the comfort of Le Meridien Airport Hotel, preparing for the next steps of our adventure—both outward and within.

Kemet Cosmology

Before the beginning of things, there was nothing but a deep abyss – infinite, everywhere, and eternal. The Divinely commanding voice called for the compression of energies surrounding the cosmic, ethereal plane, which made the creation of the world. 

The ancient Egyptians believed that this Omnipresent sound frequency came from Neter, the Egyptian word for nature, which is the generator of life and energy in its existence. The Neter created the earth, the heavens, the sea, the sky, men and women, animals, birds, and creeping things, all that is and all that shall be. 

From the Neter emerged the neteru, which some have referred to as gods and goddesses but they are actually much more than that. The neteru are cosmic principles, laws, and forces of Universal Nature and the psyche that encompasses the whole universe. They are the means of the Neter’s expression and the manifestation of Universal Creation.

The Ancient Egyptians believed that this expansion of Divine energy should be translated to human life, living in order and harmony while honoring the Universal truth. This philosophy is evident in every aspect of Ancient Egyptian culture from the way they built their cities to the structural perfection of their temples and monuments.

3,000 years later, the energies of these teachings still emanate through the hieroglyphs that remain carved in the temples and monuments of ancient Egypt.
