Philae Temple is dedicated to the Goddess Isis, the Mistress of Magic, mother to Horus, the sun god. Philae was one of the last remaining temples of the Egyptian empire, and the early Christians “adopted” Isis and her divine son, Horus, and the symbols for Mary and the baby, Jeshua. At Philae, we will experience our initiation into the Great Goddess Mysteries of Isis in her inner sanctum and reconnect to the Divine Feminine in the birthing chambers of Isis and Hathor. Philae Temple is one of the most gorgeous sites on the Nile, as well as its most serene and peaceful. We will have ample time for meditation amidst the bounty of spring flowers and the energy of the Great Mother Goddess.
