As a proud Scorpio, I've always speculated on the profound connection between sex and spirituality. My journey has taken me to states of blissful ecstasy that extend for hours, allowing me to dissolve into the vast cosmic tapestry. Within this realm, I have discovered the gateway to the transcendence of mere physical pleasure, to ecstasy,
Ecstasy, a powerful state achieved by shamans, mystics, and magicians throughout the ages, offers a glimpse into altered states of consciousness. It beckons us with promises of diminished external awareness and an expansive interior landscape of the mind and spirit. In these transcendent realms, visions manifest, and emotional euphoria takes hold.
Within the realm of ecstasy lies an infinite array of pathways to explore. However, let us embark on a particular journey—one that delves into the utilization of sexual energy. Through the channelling of this powerful force, a mere physical act transforms into a profound spiritual experience. By deepening the experience, we unearth the potential for genuinely ecstatic encounters that transcend the boundaries of the mundane.
But this exploration goes beyond the immediate realm of pleasure. We venture further to uncover the secrets of utilizing sexual energy to access gnosis. Hidden within our beings lie dormant superpowers and extraordinary faculties waiting to awaken. By tapping into the currents of sexual energy, we unlock the doorways to these supersensible realms, where the extraordinary becomes our new reality. This story is as old as time itself, so let me weave a tale. filled with mysticism and ancient rituals.
Imagine yourself in the magnificent Middle Kingdom, where the Pharaohs ruled with divine authority. In the sacred hymns known as the Diadem, there lies a peculiar invocation to a serpent resting upon the brow of the Pharaoh. As Erman* has illuminated, these hymns have ancient roots, resonating with the echoes of the Pyramid Texts. They carry a profound significance in the morning rituals of this ancient land.
Now, let us delve deeper into the realm of symbolism and mythology. The serpent at hand is no ordinary creature; it is the Cobra goddess, known as Wrt-hk3w, the Powerful of Magic. Her symbolism and iconography, represented by twin serpents, bear a striking resemblance to the concept of kundalini. Ah, kundalini, the enigmatic "serpent power" invoked in the mystical rituals of Indian Tantra.
In Magical Egypt Season 2 and 3, we have drawn intriguing parallels between kundalini's symbolism, role and the magical rites of ancient Egypt, with those in ancient India as it is rather self-evident that certain symbols and archetypal embodiments transcend cultural boundaries, much like the mischievous trickster or the guiding psychopomp found in various cultures. By studying one manifestation of an archetype, we can glean valuable insights into others.
Among a veritable feast of corresponding symbolism Chance Gardner, a keen observer, has noted a fascinating parallel between the uraeus, the sacred serpent of Egypt, and the Hindu tilaka, a crimson dot adorning the forehead. This humble mark refers to the third eye of Lord Shiva and the ajna chakra, according to Tantric doctrine.
Tantra—a mystical system of spiritual practice intertwined with both Hindu and Buddhist traditions is an ancient art that lives on to this day, rooted in sacred texts known as Tantras, most of which remain unedited and untranslated. Tantra possesses unique characteristics, combining practical and spiritual goals. Through meditation, adepts gain knowledge of the divine realm, utilizing coded language to unlock its secrets. Empowerment is attained through mastery of magical techniques, while practitioners often engage with a partner believed to embody the goddess Shakti, the divine consort of Lord Shiva.
In essence, Tantric techniques offer a means to seize the spiritual initiative, embracing the possibility of enlightenment. It is a path shrouded in mystery, where the intertwining serpents of ancient Egypt find kinship with the serpent power of India as seekers of divine wisdom tread the esoteric realms of the ancient and the eternal.
Now, as I've mentioned before, I, with all my Scorpio-driven speculations, have yet to come close to the mystical phenomenon of enlightenment or the elusive Kundalini Activation—those elusive states of transcendence that take you to the highest peaks of consciousness. However, let me introduce you to two fascinating individuals who have ventured into these realms and emerged forever transformed.
First, let's meet Dr Joanna Kujawa. With her fierce spirit and insatiable thirst for spiritual evolution, she has delved into the depths of Kundalini activation, unlocking the gates to gnosis itself. Author of The Other Goddess, she considers herself a spiritual detective, and in this role, her curiosity knows no bounds. Joanna ventures into the captivating world of myth and symbolism from the ancient realms. With her scholarly prowess, she fearlessly unravels the enigmatic tapestry of ancient tales, revealing hidden truths and profound insights along the way.
And then, we have Chance. You might know him as the brilliant creator of the Magical Egypt series, but there's more to him than meets the eye. Like a modern-day alchemist, Chance has harnessed the potent power of Kundalini activation, transcending ordinary existence to bask in the luminous glow of gnosis. But wait, there's a twist! Chance, too, has immersed himself in studying ancient myth and symbolism. It's as if he has taken a cosmic voyage through time, exploring the mystical realms of the ancients, connecting the dots between his own Kundalini experiences and the wisdom encoded in the ancient symbolism. This journey, in large part, was the impetus behind Magical Egypt Series Two and Three.
Now, let's dive into the heart of the matter—their common ground. Both Joanna and Chance have basked in the radiant light of gnosis through Kundalini activation. They've embarked on a journey that transcends the boundaries of ordinary consciousness, unlocking the doorways to extraordinary states of being.

They have plunged headfirst into the depths of myth and symbolism, unearthing treasures of wisdom and unravelling the secrets that lie dormant within the archeological record.
