Visiting the Gods of Egypt Guided Meditation
Begin by lighting a candle and some incense. Turn off the lights. Close your eyes, make yourself comfortable and relax. Next begin to prepare for the meditation by breathing in deeply through your nose, filling your belly, hold for a count of three and exhale through your mouth. Do this three times, or until you feel relaxed, centered and open.
Feel the room around you, acknowledge the glow of the candle and scent of incense.
As you breath in, begin to visualize the smoke of the incense circling you, surrounding you.
It begins to lift you off the ground.
Now floating with every breath, allow your energy to form a bubble around your floating body.
Visualize yourself and the bubble rising higher and higher. As you climb higher you can see the earth below. Take a moment and look at the earth moving below you.
Looking closer you notice that it is turning counter clockwise, and that it seems to be spinning faster and faster, and faster.
In an instant it suddenly stops and reverses to its normal clockwise spin.
You and the bubble begin to slowly sink back to the earth. From the darkness of space to a sunlit sky.
As you pass through the clouds like a feather, the bubble begins to fog up so that you can no longer see.
After a few seconds, you can feel that your bubble has stopped falling and gradually, the fog dissipates.
As the fog clears, a scene is revealed before you of a desert landscape of reddish sand. Nearby, you can see the mighty walls of four temples standing face to face, creating a square courtyard between them.
Your bubble begins to disappear, allowing you to Stand and walk freely.
Begin to head towards the courtyard.
You can feel the heat of the sand beneath your feet, and the hot sun on your body.
Looking down, you notice you are wearing a white linen robe, that blows in the occasional warm breeze.
As you reach the center of the courtyard you can see that there is an obelisk. It is made of your favorite stone, take a few moments to examine it.
Rearing above you, you see that it is covered with hieroglyphs, some seem familiar to you and others are strange and foreign. However, take note of them because they may hold a message for you.
Take a deep breath through your nose and smell the air. There is a light sent a musky wood burning.
Looking for its source, you notice that there is smoke drifting out of one of the temples.
Walking toward the temple; its heady aroma fills your nose. It is the same smell as the one you were burning when you started your journey.
As you approach the entrance of the temple, you can hear the faint humming of what seems like monks praying from inside.
Slowly you enter the temple, the floor beneath you is smooth and polished.
Out of the hot sun you find yourself in a vast chamber with stone columns.
It is quite dark, but along the walls there is bowls of burning oil that emits a flickering light. Here, the air is cool and refreshing, and the smell of incense is complemented by a strong fragrance of flowers.
Spend a few moments exploring the temple chamber.
As you look round, you can see at the far end of the chamber someone kneeling, as if in prayer.
You decide to walk across the hall of columns toward the kneeling person.
Upon approaching the person, you find you have entered a small shrine. Against the back wall is a large statue with its head covered with a black cloth. The statue seems to have a masculine body. Bowls of incense smolder before it and it is flanked by flickering flames.
As if feeling your presence, the kneeling person stands and turns toward you with one hand raised as if to say welcome.
This person appears to be a priest of some sort and you return the gesture out of respect.
He steps forward and says “welcome to the temple of the God”, you look up at the statue and notice that the black cloth is no longer there revealing one of the gods of ancient Egypt.
He has chosen to reveal himself to you.
Take a moment and think about why this particular God has come to you.
Just as you are about to turn and talk to the priest, he vanishes and you are left alone before the statue.
Return your gaze to the God before you.
Looking upon its stone face, it seems as though it is a living entity.
As if its eyes were becoming living eyes.
Gradually, the statue seems to come alive. Slowly, the stone turns to flesh.
Standing in awe, the statue of the god begins to descend toward you, his eyes now full of calmness and peace.
This is now a time to have your questions answered.
Spend some time speaking with the god. He may show you things, give you a symbolic gift or simply offer affection. He may have words of advice for your work to come, or ask you to do something for him in the real world. Let your mind wander freely….
When he has finished, thank him for this time in a way you see fit.
As you are about to say farewell, he touches your shoulder and you find yourself back outside in the courtyard. Now facing one of the other temples.
A slight breeze blows from inside, on the wind you hear your name, as if beckoning you to come inside.
As you approach the threshold of the temple, you can hear faint music coming from deep within.
Upon entering the corridor ahead, you can hear the ringing of strings and the low beat of drums in the air.
Unlike the last temple the wall here is painted and again, it is quite dark, but you can see where you are going by the dim lamplight glimmering on the floor. The entering corridor opens out into a vast room, lined by columns. Ahead of you, at the other end of the chamber, you see a flight of golden steps that lead up to a life-size golden statue of a female.
With anticipation you walk toward the staircase, noticing again that the statue’s face covered with a cloth. She wears a long sheath dress and you can make out the hint of a necklace around her neck, but her feet are bare. Just next to the statue you can see a small group of priestesses playing various instruments. The music is soft, but lively music. Another priestess begins to dance sensuously to the music around the base of the statue. The floor is covered in petals and she dances, they release their rich fragrance.
As you approach the foot of the stairs, you are overcome by the music and begin to dance.
As you dance, cast your inner eye back to your room where your candle stands, imagine that the light of this candle shines onto the statue. Through the light of this candle, you can feel your inner self become one with the statue.
Through the eyes of the statue, you can see yourself dancing through the cloth that covers your head. Reach up to remove it, as you pull it off, you find yourself back in your body looking up at a Goddess.
Seeing now, who this Goddess is, you open yourself up to her energy.
She is a friend to you. Let your mind wander to connect with her. You may have words or questions for her. Take a few moments and spend some time with this Goddess…
After a few minutes, thank her for this audience, and say farewell.
Now, walk back through the temple, bidding farewell to the priestesses. Go out into the courtyard.
This time you are not alone, there is a shrouded figured dressed in black standing before the obelisk. The figure beckons you closer. Feeling a little unsure, but not afraid, you begin to walk toward him. He reaches out holding a papyrus scroll in each hand. His hands are old and writhed with time. Knowing you need to make a choice between the two scrolls, you reach for one.
As you touch the scroll of your choice, the other bursts into blue flames, and the figure disappears. Holding the scroll, you begin to unroll it. Slowly it reveals a painted image of a boat with its bow facing the same direction of the hand you choose. Be it left or right. You know that is the direction of the next temple you are to go to.
In excitement to see what happens next, you walk closer to the directed temple. Upon approach you notice that there are stairs leading down.
A cool breeze rushes up the stone stairs as you begin to descend. The further you go the darker it gets. At the moment you think that it is just to dark too go on, you see a faint light ahead of you and push on. The air is musty and damp.
As you reach the source of light, the stairway opens to a fire light room. Walking through the entrance you can see, you are not alone. Before you, are five figures and they all turn and face you as if they have been waiting for you. They walk toward you and without a word take hold of you and guide you into an adjacent room. Entering the room you can see another figure standing on a platform before an over sized golden scale. You recognize the figure to be as Anubis, the lord of the underworld. Although, you know he is usually associated with death you feel at peace. His dark jackal face is just slightly lit by two tall candles. The five ushers leave you standing before the platform. You recall this scene from before. It is the judgment of your soul, the weighing of your heart.
Anubis turns toward you and you can see his ruby red eyes glow like fire. He steps off the platform, places his hand on your heart and instantly everything turns white.
As if playing on a movie screen you begin to see pictures of your life, he is showing you all the good you have done thus far.
Just as a feeling of pride washes over you, everything turns black and you begin to hear your heart beating slow and steady. Again, images begin to appear this time in the darkness, you are now being shown all that you hide and the bad you have done.
After a few moments the images and the darkness fades back into the room with the scales and you are alone once more.
Looking around in confusion, you can see a white feather floating down as you reach for the feather, a flash of light returns you to the courtyard.
The sun now is setting and you can feel that the temperature has dropped. Knowing now you are to visit all four temples, you proceed to the last.
As you reach the doorway the entrance fills with a thick fog.
With confidence you begin to walk into the fog. Gradually the fog turns into a black void.
After a moment, the darkness begins to clear and once more and you are back in your own reality. Open your eyes when you are ready.
