In Ancient Egypt, it was thought that the world came into being through sacred words of power that sprang from the lips and the heart of the Divine. These words were the names of the Neteru (gods and goddesses) which flow into the natural world. This workshop looks at the many sacred forms that divinity takes in the natural world through what we know as the symbols and myths of divine beings. As we explore this, we can tap into dream realms, the secret longings of the heart, and the power of Logos in image and in sound. We may learn to think in ways that resonate with the hieroglyphs and ancient words of power.
