About this Retreat
Your Guides
Sheherazad Barnes is a devoted spiritual guide, healer, and priestess of the sacred rose lineage of Isis, Mother Mary, and Mary Magdalene. As the author of the Awakening the Goddess Within oracle cards, she channels the wisdom of these divine feminine archetypes to guide women on a profound journey of remembrance helping them reclaim their sacred power, intuition, and sovereignty. Through her work, she bridges the mystical with the practical, offering powerful transmissions, rituals, and sacred teachings that illuminate the path of the modern priestess.
With a lifetime dedicated to service, prayer, and devotion, Shehera has cultivated a deep connection to the goddess and the ancient mysteries. Her teachings blend channeled activations, sound healing, goddess archetypes, alchemical practices, and ancient Egyptian wisdom, all designed to heal the feminine nervous system, activate spiritual gifts, and restore harmony between the cosmic and earthly realms. Drawing from initiatory lineages, she creates transformational spaces for women to heal generational wounds, embody their highest soul expression, and step into their divine mission with clarity and power.
Shehera’s work is a sanctuary for those who feel the sacred call to awaken, heal, and rise. Through immersive retreats, mentorship programs, and sacred ceremonies, she provides a space for deep healing and quantum expansion. Whether through her oracle deck, teachings, or guided transmissions, she invites women to reconnect with their inner temple, embrace the path of divine remembrance, and step into their full radiance.
For those who seek to embody the divine feminine and walk the path of the priestess, Shehera offers her wisdom, presence, and devotion as a guiding light in the journey of transformation and sacred reclamation.
Details of this retreat
The Sacred Union Retreat is an 11-day pilgrimage through the living temples of ancient Egypt, designed as a Mystery School for the soul. This is not simply a journey through history — it is a living initiation that awakens the deepest layers of your being.
Together we will enter 11 sacred sites, including the Temple of Isis at Philae, the radiant Temple of Hathor at Dendera, the powerful Temple of Sekhmet at Karnak, and the vast temples of Luxor and Abydos. The climax of our journey is exclusive private access to the King’s Chamber of the Great Pyramid and the Sphinx on the powerful 11/11 Portal which is a once-in-a-lifetime initiation into oneness, ascension, and remembrance.
Each temple is approached as the living body of the Neteru, the Egyptian gods and goddesses who embody forces of creation. Isis restores wholeness, Hathor awakens joy, Osiris opens resurrection, Sekhmet ignites courage, and Horus grants divine sight. As you step into these temples, you are stepping into chambers of initiation that awaken these archetypes within your soul.
Our days flow with yoga, meditation, sound healing with alchemy crystal bowls, and integration circles that anchor the transmissions into your body and heart. You will also experience the luxury and beauty of sailing the Nile on a private dahabiya, complete with an infinity pool, massage rooms, and world-class cuisine to nourish body and spirit.
What makes this retreat unique is the depth of intention. Every moment is held in sacred space, blending ancient mystery teachings with modern practices of embodiment and healing. You will be supported by an intimate circle of priestesses, brothers, and beloveds who are each walking the Path of the Initiate beside you.
This journey is an invitation to remember who you truly are, to release what no longer serves, and to align fully with your divine essence. Egypt is alive. The temples are calling. Will you answer?

Directions
* You will be flying into Cairo and taking another flight into Aswan. We will end our journey in Cairo so you will be flying out directly out of Cairo on the return. Please be mindful to ensure you are arriving on the 2nd as in most cases you will be losing a day. If you are flying out of Los Angeles, you will need to fly out on 10/31 to arrive on the 2nd. However, we recommend arriving on the 1st and relaxing the day before the journey begins. We have many recommendations for every budget.
