3/23 Arrive in Cairo

Our time in Giza is not a visit, but an initiation point. We are staying within the Giza complex, directly facing the pyramids (see photo), with a private outdoor terrace where we will open the field and anchor the Sirius current through the body and the land. What is received here is precise, personal, and timed. This convergence was written in the stars for YOU!

This is a profound physical and cellular interface—one that recalibrates the body as a living temple. After our time in Giza & Cairo, You will have the rest of the trip cradled by Mama Nile, allowing what is awakened in Giza to soften, settle, and fully integrate.

Enjoy a morning of sensual somatic movement, meditation, pranayam, and mantra on the deck of our sailing vessel before we visit the temples and sites. Led by Bethany.

- Gebel el-Silsila is one of the most quietly powerful sites along the Nile. Energetically, Silsila holds a raw, unrefined frequency—less ceremonial than the great temples, yet profoundly alive. The cliffs rise close to the river, etched with shrines, stelae, and reliefs dedicated to Hapi, the Nile god, and to the divine masculine and feminine principles in balance. It is a place where earth and water meet directly.

- Tour an authentic Egyptian village on Bassau Island, to learn about Nile River life, farming and culture.

•⁠ ⁠We will have tea in an Egyptian home
•⁠ ⁠⁠And also get to walk through the village, learning about the agricultural practices and meeting the local people.

Khnum shaped human souls on his potter’s wheel symbolizing the spiritual transformation, refinement and alchemy that comes from surrender to the Divine. It is known for its remarkable preservation, intricate carvings, and vibrant astronomical ceiling. It is one of the few Egyptian temples with well-preserved colorful reliefs, thanks to its location being buried under silt for centuries.

Enjoy a morning of sensual somatic movement, meditation, pranayam, and mantra on the deck of our sailing vessel before we visit the temples and sites. Led by Bethany.

Located in the desert outside Luxor, we will journey to a little-known Isis Temple, hidden in plain sight. With only the Holy of Holies still standing, this quiet and nondescript site has remained largely untouched by tourism. According to temple lore, this is where Horus was conceived—not merely as myth, but as an energetic moment of divine gestation. Here, Isis is felt as primordial mother, magician, and womb of kingship.

Because this temple is rarely visited, the energy remains concentrated and undisturbed, known primarily to initiates who arrive with intention. We will hold a private ceremony within this sacred space, sinking into the lap of Isis receive a deep remembrance of our sovereign divinity...

Bethany’s Egypt retreats involve not only a divine experience for the participant/initiate, but also an authentic connection to the people and culture who call this land home. We give back to the land & people who give us so much.

We will be volunteering with a women’s collective for widowed and divorced women. In this culture women in this position consider themselves “useless“ and are focused on survival.  We will spend time with them, support them economically by buying their wares and also infuse joy, dance, music and hope into their day.
