Fayoum and the Essenes


Waterfalls at Wadi Rayan - el Fayoum

The Fayoum and the Essene Connection

I've had 3 visits to the Fayoum now and each time has presented so differently for me.  This day became a day of peace, tranquil moments and gaining friendships.

My fascination with Fayoum is related to the knowing that it was a place of the Essene Therapeuti The Essene Therapueti were a healing peoples connected with the Essenes sect of Holy men and women of which the personality that we know as Jesus was one of them.  For me, this has nothing to do with religion but rather about connecting with that healing energy that many of them were so well known for and we certainly know that Jesus was indeed a powerful healer as was his mother Mary and his grandmother Anna (read Anna Grandmother of Jesus)


Some of the Essenes were very political, some very pious in their spiritual sense, some became the ones who started the Christian religion and many were very powerful healers and it is this connection I am drawn to remembering.

Wadi Ryan's Healing Energy

This place Wadi Rayan just oozes with healing energy.  You can see why a healing sect would choose such a location.  Even now when the lake is clearly so much smaller than it was way back when.  Smaller it may be, but small it definitely is not.  The water surrounding the area of the Fayoum is really quite spectactular and if you are in need of emotional healing, I would most definitely recommend a visit to the Fayoum.  A stay here would be awesome and that is most definitely on the cards for one of my upcoming trips.  I can envisage a camp out at Wadi Rayan meditating the day and nights away.  .... I'm seriously feeling it!


We went out on the lake in one of the fishing boats just to get a greater feel of the tranquil energy of the area.

Last time I visited with a group we waded through the stream flowing down from the waterfalls and 3 of us took a much welcome shower under the falls, but this trip it is far too cold for that.  But it didn't matter the experience was different again and in fact really quite calming and still.

New Friends Fayoum style


Making Friends in Fayoum

We made friends with some of the Egyptian visitors from Cairo as they pulled us in to their group for a dance, photos and exchange of Facebook contacts.



Serapis and Fayoum

This trip is about connecting with the Serapis energies and so I am seeking to find as many sites as possible that have a connection with Serapis.  The Fayoum area does have a Serapis connection and I have just today discovered another site in the Fayoum that I want to visit before this trip is complete.

Meanwhile may you connect with the healing energy of the Fayoum here at Wadi Rayan.

Meditating with the spray of the waterfall lightly sprinkling our faces... bliss

Receiving the Healing Energies of Wadi Rayan and the Fayoum

Imagine the yourself standing under the waterfall receiving the light giving properties of the pure desert waters finding it's way from the Nile and traversing all there way here to Wadi Rayan.... imagine yourself receiving the wisdom codes and peace of an oasis in the desert, a welcome relief to tired bodies, physical, emotional and mental.... rejuvenating your spirit .....

Sometimes life can feel a little like the desert:  never ending isolation, loneliness and harsh environment.  How does the desert feel in your body when you tune in to feel where in your body feels like a desert, what does the desert feel like to you?

Love of the Desert

Since my first visit to Egypt I have always loved the desert.  I can't really say why, but something draws me in.  I feel at home in the desert, so I can only imagine that I have spent other lifetimes connected to the desert of Egypt and even Israel because I have huge heart openings when I drive through that area too.  .... the heart opens and love penetrates all aspects of self and our vibration expands and higher consciousness results.

I love the desert and the oasis to me feels like the light of the Universal Source of love coursing down through my central column.  Visiting Wadi Rayan, feels like I am accepting even greater light and anchoring myself more deeply into this earth plane.  I feel connected with both heaven and earth and the dry harsh environment is soothed by the gift of the waterfall.

Blessed we are to have such rugged beauty on our planet.

Thebes of the North

Sarcophagi Lid - San el Hagar Thebes of the North and the Sarcophagi Gateway  Imagine the stillness and feeling of peace within when you have found your balance, your unification with your true self; when you have passed between worlds and found the secret of Being. Imagine the feeling of love inside of you..............   Just for a moment close your eyes and go within to your heart centre.  Breathe with no thought, just feeling.  Go deeper, breathe deeper; there is no room for thought because you are in touch with your own inner presence.  You are in touch with the Divine aspect of you.  This is a fleeting moment of enlightenment.  Imagine this state of being as the state you carry all of the time.  Imagine that............ and feel the love.... Look at the image above and be that within your own heart, your inner world, you own inner body.  This is truth, this is what true healing is.  You have been told, heal thy self and you have wondered and sought outside

All Set for the Temple of Truth

A Journey of Truth - Part Two Arrival into Crete  on 11.5.2012=30/3 We see again the 11 showing us that we are being guided by Spirit and the 30/3 represents the Holy Spirit. The 3 vibration is also that of my Soul and I have noticed that on these days I tend to do something extra special. Extra special today was entering into Crete; the very land beneath the Temple of Truth. My path is in service to you so I remind you here that what I share with you is for your healing as well as mine. Together we are one and what I do you do too and the healing I have myself achieved I know is also shared by you as you read this and that is my intention to share the Light codes that have come to me in order to share them with you. I am always very aware of the presence travelling alongside me of those who follow my work, but this journey more so than others I was ever aware of their presence. This gave me more incentive and more determination to make the most of every moment so I did not was

Temple of Serapis

Temple of Serapis at The Serapeum Alexandria Temple of Serapis For many years I have wanted to go to the Serapeum in Alexandria , but one thing and another it never happened and then the Serapeum in Sakkara opened and I thought I had it all wrong and that was the Serapeum I had been trying to get to.  Anyway, I have visited the Serapeum in Sakkara twice and while I had a wonderful experience it had nothing on my experience when the other day I made it to Serapis’ Temple at the Serapeum in Alexandria.  Yes, there really was another Serapeum in Alexandria and I had for whatever reason been directed away from it for some ten years.  I guess it is understandable with Egypt having so much to offer and so much to see and experience that my focus has gone elsewhere. Drawn to touching the feet of Serapis. So, the 3 rd February 2016 my love affair with Serapis was reawakened and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome.  The Serapeum in Alexandria is the remains of the Tem
