title: Invoking the Scribes of Ancient Egypt: The Initiatory Path of Spiritual Journaling
author:  Normandi Ellis 
description: &ldquo;This book is especially powerful for those of us who love to write and have the hidden content come through beyond the words. Many secrets lie hidden in plain sight simply because we do not have the eyes to see the deeper meaning. This may help open your eyes.&rdquo; (<i>Rahasya Poe, Lotus Guide, January 2012</i>)<br /><br />&ldquo;The authors balance well between the personal and the spiritual. While the women on the tour happened to have the means to tour Egypt for themselves, a reader at home who might not visit Egypt can still use the writing exercises, rituals and techniques shared at much lower cost than the airfare to Cairo. Recommended.&rdquo; (<i>Diana Rajchel, Facing North</i>)<br /><br />&ldquo;This isn&rsquo;t a book that you will just read through once and then put it away on your bookshelf to gather dust. This is book you will savor as you read. This is a book that will, if you open yourself to the experience (as I heartily recommend!), connect you with a universe that is so much larger than you may have imagined. You will find that your &ldquo;inner scribe&rdquo; is much more than just a &ldquo;journaler&rdquo; who makes quick notes about your daily life or responds to various off-the-cuff prompts. This is spiritual journaling, an oh-so-different beast...I highly recommend that you take the opportunity to refresh your soul with Invoking the Scribes of Ancient Egypt: The Initiatory Path of Spiritual Journaling!&rdquo; (<i>Journal For You April 2012</i>)<br /><br />&ldquo;I recommend this book for anyone who would like to see Egypt through a writer&rsquo;s passionate gaze or as a guide for looking into the journey of spiritual writing regardless of your path. This book is an excellent guide for basic layouts for writing and as such I will continue to work with. The writers share some deep and truly beautiful insights into the land of the Scribes of Egypt. Come join them, take a beautiful journey and then embark upon your own Spiritual Initiatory Journaling experience.&rdquo; (<i>Henge of Keltria, June 2012</i>)<br /><br />&ldquo;I recommend this book on three counts. Firstly, it is an example of modern travel writing; secondly, an anthology of spiritual poetry and prose; and finally, as a handbook for spiritual development. The structure of the whole venture is flexible enough to adapt to any spiritual stream. Go for it!&rdquo; (<i>Jennifer Hoskins, New Dawn, September 2012</i>)<br /><br />&ldquo;<I>Invoking the Scribes of Ancient Egypt</I> is a book of wisdom that includes the writing exercises, perceptive comments on the temples and gods and goddesses, guided meditations, and even remarks about the heat and how the life of modern Egypt overlies the older civilization. It should have a place on our shelves beside the other fine books on spiritual journaling, including those by Julia Cameron.&rdquo; (<i>Barbara Ardinger, Ph.D., Witches and Pagans, October 2012</i>)<br /><br />&ldquo;It&rsquo;s not often that ancient Egypt inspires a truly original work, but this is one of those rarities. A passionate, moving, intensely personal and yet remarkably informative book; there&rsquo;s nothing remotely like it.&rdquo; (<i>John Anthony West, author of Serpent in the Sky and The Travelers Key to Ancient Egypt</i>)
