Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
A book of wisdom teachings and rituals that invoke ancient Egyptian deities to awaken human consciousness
• Provides guided shamanic visualizations to invoke 26 of the most significant gods
• Takes the reader through shamanic portals of death, rebirth, and illumination
• Reconciles internal conflict through a sacred marriage of heart and mind
In Shamanic Mysteries of Egypt, Nicki Scully and Linda Star Wolf renew humanity’s connection to the ancient gods of Egypt, the neteru. Voices from these divine ancestors remind us of the healing power of the heart, and call us to bring their consciousness into the present to help us remember our true nature as divine humans with sacred purpose. The authors provide rituals, meditations, and rites of passage to help us meet our personal and planetary challenges with grace, wisdom, and love. The shamanic initiations provided are invoked, directly experienced, and transformed into embodied wisdom that awakens consciousness and illumines the intelligence of the heart.
Scully and Star Wolf focus their rituals on 26 of the primary divine entities that preside over the ancient mysteries whose roots are in Old Kingdom and pre-historic Egypt. This fresh interpretation of ancient mysteries unites the energies of Thoth and Anubis to guide us through the current cycle of Earth changes and to help us remember who we really are at heart. Through these passages, Anubis lives up to his ancient title as the Opener of the Way, and Thoth as the Architect of Higher Learning. Together they evoke their power to unite heart and mind in the sacred marriage that brings transformation, renewal, and the awakening of consciousness.

Couldn't even finish reading this book. I have been to Egypt and have been fascinated by anything Egypt since I was a kid. This was not fascinating. Totally mind games and imagination. If you have a buddy who wants to play with these visual imaginations then you could read them to each other. Otherwise, it is impossible to do while you are personally reading them. Probably better if these authors would have done a cd taking you on their mind journeys. Can't say that it had anything to do with Egypt other than the authors may have visited there.

I'd never heard of the authors before I came across the book. Thumbing through it, it didn't seem like much, but when I felt compelled to bring it home the second time I was in the bookstore, I realized what a gem this is.
The very first few chapters taught me more about my patron deity- Anubis- than the Book of the Dead did. That's saying a -lot-, given how many sources I've looked to to find information about him and the other deities. Most sources say "this deity is known for doing __" or "this deity stands for __"- not very in depth to a practitioner. (I'm a Wiccan with a slant towards the Egyptian pantheon, and with a few years of formal training behind me.)
The book is laid out in chapter format, and each chapter gives you a guided meditation. I strongly recommend recording them onto a tape if you're able, especially with some soft background music going. Be careful with them and make sure you personally are ready for each new level.
The book is wonderfully concise with clear details- no useless bits. I love it.

This is a very well researched and well written book. It reminds me of a catechism for modern day born-again Egyptians, and is presented as absolute truth. Beautiful illustrations, evocative meditations and interesting concept.

Nicki Scully and Linda Star Wolf have written a fun and strange manual that teaches us how we can unlock the secrets of the New Age teachings with the help of the shamanic Egyptian mysteries.
In addition to an array of beautiful illustrations, the authors have effectively organized the book into three parts. The very first two contain instructions on performing rites of passage and meditations with a little help from our friends, the always accessible primary divine entities of prehistoric Egypt. The third section focuses on the four elements: water, earth, fire and air. The best part is a super-cool glossary of the gods, each with whom I connected for drinks at various stages while reading. I must say that while I got on well with them all, my favorite has to be Sekhmet because she "helps us to shape-shift into our future selves." And after turning into a hot pink unicorn, who could ask for anything more?
As we read this book our consciousness and awareness grow more deeply, but perhaps never as deeply as the weirdness of the rituals. Although I admit that being placed in a sarcophagus to undergo an initiation sounds like tremendous fun, having to surrender my DNA to a god's or goddess's will is bit much. Don't get me wrong, I am sure this was perfectly fine in the good old days, but now who the hell knows where your genes might end up?
In essence, Shamanic Mysteries of Egypt: Awakening the Healing Power of the Heart is a nice read. And while some pages left me as bored as the Great Sphinx has been since the Bronze Age, it would be a good $16 mind trip into mystical Egypt for anyone who's ever pondered about Isis, Osiris and their many pals.

My entry into the arches of this mythic architecture, was both intellectual curiosity, and an intuitive yearning to embrace what had long been hidden or shrouded. The "Shamanic Mysteries of Egypt" served to unfold the petals of the collective archetype into such a fundamental wisdom necklace, so that mental clarity began to crystallize. I understood the relational constellations of the Egyptian gods and goddesses.... But Understanding, from a perspective that grips the tissues of "how we Know" itself, soon walked out of the mist of ancient alchemical inscriptions, into a luminous Dream-talk that induced a kind of spiritual seduction. Entranced by the mythopoetic invitations into this universal drama of Spirit engaging its own discovery, Nicki Scully and Linda Star Wolf gradually open those ancient secret doors, and allow the engaged reader into the Soul's castle Keep, where we Feel/Know/See the patterns behind the patterns,,,, These revealed keys, reach into fundamental substrates of our most primal questions of spiritual discovery, becoming the Inner architecture, the cognitive lens, that so fluidly frames both analytical reflection, and mystical experiences. It is important when walking the corridors of these proto-cultural architectures, to Trust, to heartfully engage, to allow for the parade of sensual-spiritual anima and animus to unlock the unKnown mythos that is both within and without, and breathe the new atmospheres of Knowing with an innocent and tempered appreciation. The instructions for each veil ripping process are concise, clearly progressive, and graceful psycho-spiritual invocations into a new world of perception.
My most sincere appreciation to Nicki Scully and Linda Star Wolf for allowing me the opportunity to discovery such stellar foundations of our planetary wisdom legacy.
