🌟 EGYPT: Pharaoh Tutankhamen's Wadjet pendant with the esoteric meanings of each of the symbols noted in the photo.

👉 In the center is the yellow-green scarab made of Libyan Desert Glass (LDG), a naturally-occurring glass made of silicon dioxide, generally found in the Western Desert of Egypt. It was formed millions of years ago when a massive meteor came hurdling from the sky like a fireball, crashing somewhere in the Libyan desert, generating a tremendous amount of heat on impact (at least 1600 degrees Celsius or 2912 Fahrenheit), blasting the gentle sand up into the sky before it rained down as liquid glass.

👉💥 We'll visit the King Tut Collection at the NEW Grand Egyptian Museum during our Sacred Journey of Initiation, February 1 - 14, 2026 AND during our Women's Empowerment Journey, February 20 - 28, 2026. www.SacredSitesJourneys.com

We'd appreciate it if you'd share this information with anyone who you think might be interested. Thanks! 💓

🌠 THE SUBTERRANEAN KINGDOM OF AGHARTHA - From Mark Amaru Pinkham - Author of An Initiate's Guide to the Path of the Dragon

🌟 The Kingdom of Aghartha was created by Lemurians and Star People preceding a planetary cataclysm that was expected to cover the globe with water. At that time a manifestation of Sanat Kumara in his forever young form assumed the throne of Aghartha as King of the World.

🌟 In Beasts, Men and Gods, Ferdinand Ossendowski maintains that while visiting the Buddhist monasteries of Mongolia in the 1920s he was shown evidence that the monasteries were linked to Aghartha by tunnels. He was even led to a throne inside the monastery in Narabanchi where the King of Aghartha - the King of the World - had sat in 1890 after exiting one of the Aghartha tunnels near or at the monastery and then giving the resident monks a list of prophecies for the coming centuries. One of these predictions states that the people of Aghatha will emerge on the surface of the Earth again in 2029.

🌟 As to the origins of the King of the World, Ossendowski was informed by the Buddhist priests that he had anciently arrived on Earth from Venus and that his true name was OM. This agrees with information regarding the King of the World received by the Tamils, Hindus and the teachers of Theosophy. According to the Theosophical psychics who channeled information directly from the Ascended Masters Morya and Kuthumi who constantly traveled between Shigatse in Tibet and the Court of the Dragon King in Shambhala, the King of the World initially arrived from Venus with a large entourage of 104 enlightened adepts.

🌟 Aghartha is the Third Chakra of the Earth. It is situated on the Earth's spine that unites Mt. Kailash, the planetary Crown Chakra, with Sedona, Earth's Root Chakra.
- Excerpted from An Initiate's Guide to the Path of the Dragon

🦅 El Cóndor Pasa (The Condor Passes): The Fascinating Story Behind Peru’s Famous Song

🎼 Those of you who have been to PERU with us will recognize this beautiful song! Here's a traditional version by the group Los Incas (The Incas): https://youtu.be/GSwu8-ohoWs

"First written by Daniel Alomía Robles in early 20th century, you will now find more than 4,000 versions of El Cóndor Pasa around the world. Find out why this song is engrained in Peru’s national identity.

You might be familiar with Simon & Garfunkel’s version (If I Could), but what is it about El Cóndor Pasa that made it so popular way before the American folk duo’s cover? The answer to this question has everything to do with Peru’s complex and deep cultural and social history.

👉 What’s in a song? If you’ve been to Peru for any length of time, chances are that you’ve heard many versions of El Cóndor Pasa. It’s a song that you’ll hear inside of restaurants and cafes, in the streets, and on the radio. The song is so popular in Peru that most consider it to be the country’s unofficial second national anthem.

👉 Who composed El Cóndor Pasa? Daniel Alomía Robles composed the song as an orchestral play known as zarzuela. The play was performed hundreds of times throughout the 20th century. The Peruvian zarzuela itself isn’t rooted within an Andean tradition, but rather in the European tradition. Despite this, the origins of El Cóndor Pasa are anything but European. Before he composed this song, Alomía Robles spent many years traveling around Peru and exploring distinct musical styles from the many regions of the country.

As an ethnomusicologist, Alomía Robles learned about Peru’s rich folkloric traditions and realized that traditional Andean musical styles worked with a pentatonic scale. He often published his findings in scholarly articles about traditional music of the Americas. Only after spending many years traveling across Peru did he compose El Cóndor Pasa.

👉 El Cóndor Pasa is about mining exploitation, loss and hope. According to writer Manuel Orbegozo, the original zarzuela of El Cóndor Pasa speaks of a group of Andean miners exploited by their boss. A cóndor, who watches them from above, becomes a symbol of freedom. Many believe that Alomía Roble was inspired after visiting miners who were working in unimaginable brutal conditions in Cerro de Pasco, the almost completely abandoned and depleted mining mecca."

💥 Our next Sacred Sites Journey to beloved PERU is A Spiritual Journey at Machu Picchu, Cusco & The Sacred Valley of the Incas, October 12 - 21, 2025. With an Optional Post-Tour Extension to Lake Titicaca: October 21st - 24th ➡️ We're now taking registrations! http://www.sacredsitesjourneys.com/Peru-Oct2025/Peru-Oct2025.htm

From Andrea Mikana-Pinkham, Director of Sacred Sites Journeys: 🌟 I invite you to read my article Journey to Machu Picchu - A Transformational Adventure in PERU about my first experience at Machu Picchu way back in 1993! I hope you enjoy it!

👉 After longing for many years to travel to Machu Picchu, the lost city of the Incas in Peru, I woke up on a spring morning in 1993 feeling a quiet yet powerful knowing that the time had finally come, that my husband and I were going to be there in just six short months. When I went out to the breakfast table and shared this with him, he was elated and we excitedly made our plans for the pilgrimage. By May we had our passports in order and had purchased our airline tickets. Over the summer months the finances at our wellness center improved. In fact, in August, usually our slowest month, business was the best ever! The money poured in and we packed!

👉 In late August we departed on an overnight flight to Lima, arrived the next morning and caught a flight to Cusco. At the airport we met Andy, a tourist guide who was a native of Cusco and was actually descended from the Incas. We knew we were on the right track! He helped us find a room in a small hotel a few blocks from the bustling center of the city. We immediately purchased our train tickets to Machu Picchu from his agency, and were so excited that sleeping peacefully through the night was out of the question!

👉 Early the next morning Andy came to our hotel and took us to the local train station where we boarded the train to Machu Picchu. After traveling for several hours along the wild and raging Urubamba River, deep into the heart of the valleys of the high jungle, we arrived in Aguas Calientes, the little pueblo at the base of the ruins. We ran to the bus stop and boarded one of the park buses that took us on a half hour ride up fourteen dizzying switchbacks to the top of the mountain. After quickly checking in at the on-site hotel, we threw our suitcases into our room and purchased our entrance tickets! At last! We were finally in Machu Picchu…away from the world and in the land of the ancients! Even though I’ve been there many times since, I must say that nothing in this world can prepare you for that first glimpse of the Sacred City. Located at 8,000 ft. and surrounded by towering snow-covered peaks, the Crown Jewel of the Andes was not discovered by the Spanish when they conquered Peru in the 1500’s. It was only recently “re-discovered” in 1911 by the American anthropologist Hiram Bingham, and only as recently as 1991 was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. When Bingham arrived in the area, the native people had known about the site for years, and had even farmed on the terraced slopes around the area. But none of them lived there, as it was considered sacred ground. I could feel why! The energy of the land was extremely palpable…very strong, pulsing up through the soles of my feet and straight into my heart. Tears overflowed from my eyes as I felt the sweet sensation of finally arriving “home”!

➡️ If you're moved by reading about my transformation experience in the Andes and would like to have your own, I invite you to join me for our Spiritual Journey at Machu Picchu, Cusco & The Sacred Valley of the Incas, October 12 - 21, 2025. With an Optional Post-Tour Extension to Lake Titicaca: October 21st - 24th.

✨ EGYPT 🌀 Hymn to Isis/Auset, the Neter of Healing and Magic, wife/sister of Osiris, and mother of Horus.

🌀 Isis may be one of the oldest deities in Egypt, and certainly the oldest to survive in much the same form as in the ancient times. She may also be the most important, as She was worshipped almost universally by all Egyptians. As the major Goddess of the Egyptian pantheon, with many of the same attributes of other Mother Goddesses found all over the world, She was revered as the Great Protector, prayed to for guidance, and beseeched for peace in the world.

🌀 Her Egyptian name was Auset, which meant "female of throne", i.e. Queen of the Throne. Teachings about the pre-dynastic Egyptians, from the oral tradition passed down through the ages, say that it was a matriarchal and matrilineal culture, and that the woman was the power behind the throne. The mother or sister chose the male who ruled. Thus the throne that is shown carved on Isis' head in hieroglyphs in the temples.

🌀 Hymn to Isis from the 3rd or 4th century BCE, discovered in Nag Hammadi, Egypt:
Because I am the first and the last I am the venerated and the scorned
I am the w***e and the saint
I am the wife and the virgin
I am the mother and the daughter
I am the arms of my mother
I am the sterile one, and my children are many
I am the well-wed and the spinster
I am the one who gave the light and the one who never gave birth
I am the wife and the husband
And it was my man who bore me in his belly
I am the mother of my father
I am the sister of my husband
And he is my rejected son
Respect me always
Because I am the scandalous and the discreet.

➡️ We'll connect with the energies of ancient Isis/Auset during our Women's Empowerment Journey to EGYPT, February 20 - 28, 2026. Including a 4-Night Nile Cruise on the 5* Chateau Lafayette Cruise Ship! 👉👉👉 For a detailed itinerary, pricing and to learn how to join us, visit http://www.sacredsitesjourneys.com/Egypt-Women-Feb2026/Egypt-Women-Feb2026.html

🌟💥🌟 EGYPT: IMPORTANT UPDATE! ➡ From Andrea Mikana-Pinkham, Director of Sacred Sites Journeys: 💥 Receive Initiation into the Mysteries of Isis & Osiris during our upcoming Sacred Journey of Initiation to Mystical Egypt, February 1 - 14, 2026!

💥 Join me and our Featured Speaker Rt. Rev. Sean P. McCabe, KT. PhD., Co-Founders of The Temple of the Golden Serpent for an extraordinary spiritual journey that only the most advanced initiates of ancient times were privileged to experience! Sean and I are longtime teachers of the ancient Egyptian Mysteries. I've led over 25 spiritual pilgrimage tours of Egypt since 2000.

👉 Legend has it that the priesthoods of Isis and Osiris were brought to Egypt from Atlantis by the Thoth-Hermes Masters. Many of you could have been members of these very ancient priesthoods. If so, then perhaps you will remember that the priesthoods were founded by the legendary Twin Boys, known as the Kumaras and Kaberoi. They brought the teachings of alchemy to Earth from another part of the galaxy. After arriving in Egypt from Atlantis, they were venerated as the Twin Sons of Ptah-Osiris. Their temple is located behind his in the ancient capitol city of Memphis.

👉 We'll share the history and alchemical wisdom of the Kumaras-Kaberoi, the Twins who've been waiting for thousands of years to assist humans during this special time. Their timeless wisdom will greatly assist each one of us in preparing for the coming Golden Age and Fifth World.

👉 During this exceptional Journey of Initiation you'll have the opportunity to easily engage the ancient energies of spiritual death and rebirth that were once experienced directly by the Egyptian Priests and Priestesses of Isis and Osiris. We will travel along the sacred Nile River, which the Egyptian initiates once knew to be the spine of Osiris, while engaging in sacred rituals & meditations in dynamically charged temples along its banks that were built over the chakras of Osiris. As we awaken our own corresponding chakras, we will call forth the Gods and Goddesses of each temple to assist us in our activations.

🌟💥🌟 Our journey will culminate in our PRIVATE ENTRANCE inside the Great Pyramid, the ancient “House of Osiris,” where the final step in our spiritual transformation will occur in the powerful alchemical crucible of the resonance box in the Upper Chamber! We're also offering the auspicious optional opportunity to join us as an Adept in The Temple of the Golden Serpent! http://www.sacredsitesjourneys.com/TempleOfTheGoldenSerpent.html

💥 We're NOW TAKING REGISTRATIONS for this once-in-a-lifetime spiritual pilgrimage! To view a detailed itinerary, obtain the pricing and learn how to join us: http://www.sacredsitesjourneys.com/Egypt-Feb2026/Egypt-Feb2026.html

👉 From Andrea Mikana-Pinkham, Director of Sacred Sites Journeys: ✨ I'm pleased to introduce Rt. Rev. Sean P. McCabe, KT. PhD., Co-Founder of The Temple of the Golden Serpent, who is our Featured Speaker and Meditation Facilitator for our Sacred Journey of Initiation to Mystical EGYPT, February 1 - 14, 2026!

➡️ FROM SEAN: About My Experience in EGYPT and What I Offer You: When I went to EGYPT with Andrea and Sacred Sites Journeys I expected the highlights of pyramids and temples that are glamourised in Hollywood; but what I experienced was far superior to that. This was mainly for two reasons. One, I had the good fortune to meet Andrea Mikana-Pinkham and Vivian Zaki whose longtime experience and professional expertise enriched my adventure, rather than just another visit to an ancient civilisation.
Secondly, although I have many years' experience in esoteric science and spirituality, I was guided in the correct sequence to the precise locations to activate the energies within me and connect with very powerful frequencies.

One experience that stands out was in our PRIVATE ENTRANCE into the Resonance Chamber in the Great Pyramid. In the resonance box I received a very powerful kundalini vibration that could only be described as a gilt-edged psychic upgrade. The Beings who carried out the operation and the dimensional transmission were fascinating.

What I Have to Offer as a Meditation and Spiritual Facilitator during the Egypt 2026 Pilgrimage: I have taught many people esoteric science, meditation, and have ritually initiated hundreds of seekers on the path to self-realisation. In my capacity as a meditation and spiritual facilitator I will present workshops followed by a guided meditation to open the relevant chakra prior to activation and initiation at the associated temple or pyramid.

💥 From Andrea: We're NOW TAKING REGISTRATIONS for this once-in-a-lifetime spiritual pilgrimage! To learn more about Sean and myself, as well as to view a detailed itinerary, obtain the pricing and learn how to join us: http://www.sacredsitesjourneys.com/Egypt-Feb2026/Egypt-Feb2026.html

🌟 From Sean and Andrea: We're offering you the auspicious option to join us during this sacred initiatory journey as an Adept in The Temple of the Golden Serpent, a Modern-Day Egyptian Mystery School http://www.sacredsitesjourneys.com/TempleOfTheGoldenSerpent.html

16/06/2025

👉 From Andrea Mikana-Pinkham, Director of Sacred Sites Journeys: 🌄 I'm very pleased to announce our upcoming Sacred Journey of Initiation to Mystical Egypt, February 1 - 14, 2026 with myself and Rt. Rev. Sean P. McCabe, KT. PhD., Co-Founders of the Egyptian Mystery School The Temple of the Golden Serpent! Join us for an extraordinary sacred journey from the Mists of Time through the Age of the Pharaohs. We're also teachers of the classical Egyptian Mysteries and longtime researchers of ancient megalithic technology & history.

✨ During this unique spiritual pilgrimage we'll cover much of the land of ancient Egypt while recounting the tens of thousands of years worth of history that occurred there since the time of the Zep Tepi, the "First Age".

✨ To learn about the pre-dynastic and dynastic history we'll study the ancient hieroglyphs on the walls of many perfectly preserved temples.

✨ We'll visit the ancient temples that lie along the banks of the ageless Nile, once referred to by the initiates of Egypt as the "Spine of Osiris". At each of them we'll seek to activate their acclaimed spiritual power. Through group or individual meditations we'll summon their corresponding Gods and Goddesses, and seek to activate the corresponding energy centers, or chakras within our own bodies.

🌟 We'll have THREE special access PRIVATE ENTRANCES: 1) The Great Sphinx for Sunrise! 2) The mysterious pre-dynastic/dynastic Osirieon at Abydos 3) The Great Pyramid for meditation and initiation.

💥 We're NOW TAKING REGISTRATIONS! To learn more about Sean P. McCabe and myself, as well as to view a detailed itinerary, obtain the pricing and learn how to join us, visit http://www.sacredsitesjourneys.com/Egypt-Feb2026/Egypt-Feb2026.html
