A shamanic ritual with the Egyptian goddess Sekhmet to bring about alchemical transformation at the deepest levels of your being

• Details how to work with Sekhmet to transform your negative behavior patterns and character flaws into creative impulses and higher energies

• Leads you through guided visualizations, illustrated with photographs, to Sekhmet’s chapel at the Temple of Karnak and through her shamanic ritual of transformation

• Includes initiations, rites of passage, and transmissions from Sekhmet to release your fears and anger and rejuvenate your body, mind, and spirit

Sekhmet is the lioness goddess of the Egyptian Pantheon, a fierce protector of truth, balance, and the Cosmic order of Ma’at. Known and feared as the goddess of war and destruction, she also represents the transformative power of kundalini energy, or
sekhem, and is the main goddess to harness this power for healing. As “She Who Comes in Times of Chaos,” she takes offerings of fear, rage, and weakness and transforms them into alchemical gold, the universal medicine for physical, emotional, and soul healing.

In this book you are guided through a shamanic ritual of alchemical transformation and initiation with Sekhmet, working with this powerful goddess to release your most deeply rooted negative behavior patterns and be reborn into a more purified state of consciousness. Using intensive self-examination exercises to help you prepare to meet the goddess, the author leads you through a guided visualization, illustrated with photographs, to an ancient statue of Sekhmet in her chapel at the Temple of Karnak. There, you will be shamanistically devoured by the goddess, directly experiencing the alchemical process of transformation in the belly of Sekhmet until you are rebirthed as a fully realized adult child of the goddess. You will experience how your offering of pain, fear, rage, and self-sabotage is digested, absorbed, and assimilated by Sekhmet while you are initiated into the alchemy of total transformation. The initiations, rites of passage, and transmissions from Sekhmet included in the journey restructure the most important aspects of your body, mind, spirit, and soul.

This journey of shamanic death, illumination, and rebirth in the belly of Sekhmet provides an opportunity to heal on all levels and allows you to release your rage, anger, and fear as you transform the energies that maintained them into creative and constructive solutions that benefit yourself, your community, and the planet.

With Thoth she developed Alchemical Healing—a comprehensive healing form that is practiced by thousands of practitioners internationally.

In the late '80s, Nicki founded Shamanic Journeys, Ltd.⎯her venue for conducting workshops, retreats, and spiritual pilgrimages to Egypt and other sacred sites.

Nicki lives in Eugene, OR, where she writes, maintains a healing and shamanic consulting practice and owns a lovely retreat center with her husband, Mark Hallert. The healing and retreat center has a temple, guesthouse, a seasonal sweat lodge, extensive gardens and a peaceful pond surrounded by natural woods for strolling and meditation. There, she hosts 2-3 retreats and several weekend workshops every summer for participants to deeply study the art and practice of Alchemical Healing, Personal and Planetary Healing, the Egyptian Mysteries and Pantheon, as well as other seminars and small gatherings for other studies and arts.
