The Pharaoh's Daughter

This is a book about an American woman's investigation into a past life in Egypt as Iput, daughter of the last 5th Dynasty pharaoh Unas of the Old Kingdom, and her role as an initiate of Hathor at the temple of Dendera. Sara's original fascination with Saqqara and the Pyramid Texts found in the pyramids there lead her into a fascinating discovery of a past life that also includes Sara's guide Amir and her husband Thomas. Sara returns to Egypt to get to the bottom of her reoccurring visions as Iput. Actual experiences in real time, as well as dreams, meditations, and visions lead Sara through this spiritual sojourn. This is a story about the healing power of forgiveness when unresolved issues from past lives bleed into the present and even the future. This is also a story of how a woman rediscovers her own lost meaning and joy through her resolve to face what is happening to her, as unusual as it is, and takes it seriously. The healing power of the ancient sites and monuments of ancient Egypt also play a role as many travelers to Egypt have similar experiences when they visit these places built on thousands of years of spiritual activity. This is also a story that points to the future and the work we are asked to take on to keep our planet safe and whole. The surprising ending and a scroll called the Book of Light that Sara dreams of hold a warning for the future about the second return of Sekhmet, the fierce lioness goddess. This changes everything and moves Sara, Amir, and Thomas towards healing as they heal the past, and work together towards the future.
