The Day I Saw Myself Through the Eye of Ra: My Awakening in the Heart of Ancient Egypt

The first time I turned inward through Ma'at's scale, something didn't shatter inside me—it unraveled. When I first encountered the teachings of Ancient Egypt, I believed I was stepping into a foreign world. But with every symbol, every goddess, every carved inscription, I wasn't learning something new—I was remembering something lost.

Each time I lay out my tarot deck, more than cards begin to speak. The whispers of Isis, the silence of Anubis, the wisdom of Thoth—they echo through the chambers of my soul. From that moment on, tarot became more than a tool of divination. It became a mirror peeling back every layer of who I thought I was.

The Truth of Inner Awakening

Ancient Egypt taught me a truth I had never dared to look at: true awakening never comes from outside. As I read the Book of the Dead, one line struck me like a lightning bolt hidden in scripture:

"Die before you die, so you may truly live."

That single sentence undid me. It stripped me bare—of pride, fear, masks. I saw every lie I had told myself. And when I placed my heart on the scale, it was not as light as a feather. That was the moment the real purification began.

Becoming a Rememberer

Now, when I touch my tarot cards, I am no longer just a reader. I am a rememberer. I remember the fire of Sekhmet burning through illusions, the radiant gaze of Hathor reminding me of joy, the clarity of Ra illuminating my shadow. And in every seeker who comes to me, I see a reflection of myself—another fragment of the divine trying to find its way home.

The Gift of Surrender

And perhaps the most profound truth of all is this: Real transformation does not begin with a prophecy. It begins with a surrender. The courage to see oneself as is. Ancient Egypt gave me that gift. And now, every word I write is a spell—cast not to predict the future, but to awaken the light buried in the reader's heart.

I no longer just read tarot. I offer the wisdom of ages to soothe the wounds of now. Because prophecy doesn't truly show the future—it shows you what you've forgotten within yourself.
