In this powerful and illuminating episode of Gateways to Awakening, I sit down with spiritualist, author, and clairvoyant medium Normandi Ellis to explore the profound wisdom of the ancient Egyptian mysteries.
Her 14 published books include the spiritual classic, Awakening Osiris, translations from the hieroglyphs found in the Book of the Dead, as well as a book on the Ancient Tradition of Angels, Hieroglyphic Words of Power, and Imagining the World into Existence among others.
She facilitates work with those wishing to explore the path of the priestess through her school devoted to Isis and Seshet. In addition to monthly classes, she offers clairvoyant circles, metaphysical classes and private consultations (phone or in person).
Best known for her spiritual classic Awakening Osiris, Normandi unpacks the true meaning of the Egyptian Book of the Dead—known to the ancients as The Book of Coming Into Light—and reveals how its sacred texts offer a blueprint for turning death consciousness into life consciousness.
We explore:
- The origins and meaning of the Egyptian mysteries
- The significance of alchemy and the roots of the word itself
- The multidimensional Egyptian soul (Ba, Ka, Akh, Ren, Sahu, and more)
- The spiritual power of hieroglyphs, prayer, and Heka (divine magic)
- The living presence of the gods and goddesses within temples and statues
- The initiatory role of sound and vibration in sacred spaces like the Great Pyramid
- Isis as a symbol of the Divine Feminine and restorer of cosmic memory
- The role of Thoth, natural law, and reality creation through intentionality and speech
Normandi also shares deeply personal stories—from her 10-year journey translating the Book of the Dead, to spiritual pilgrimages in Egypt, to receiving recognition from Jean Houston and collaborating with Nikki Scully.
Whether you're a seasoned seeker or newly curious about Egypt's esoteric legacy, this episode invites you to remember your place in the divine story—and to reconnect with the sacredness of all life.
