Trip to the Sphinx with Private guided trip
The Great Sphinx: A Practical Guide to Meditating and Drawing Strength from an Icon of Egyptian Civilization

At the heart of the Giza Plateau, where the golden rays of the sun dance off the rocks of the pyramids, stands a majestic creature, blending the body of a lion with the wisdom of a human: the Great Sphinx. Visiting this historic monument goes beyond simply viewing a tourist attraction; it’s a unique opportunity to engage in mindful meditation practices and draw spiritual and intellectual strength from its timeless energy. If you’re seeking an experience that transcends the visual and touches the soul,… Before you visit the Great Sphinx on your private visit, Pyramids Trip offers you a guide on how to meditate on the Sphinx and draw inspiration from its majesty. Stage One: Mental and Physical Preparation Before you arrive at the site for your private visit, you can begin preparing yourself for a unique experience: 1. Research thoroughly and be aware: Read about the history of the Sphinx, the theories of its construction, its symbolism (strength, wisdom, protection), and its role in ancient Egyptian civilization. We can help you find the best references for good research. The more you understand its story, the more deeply you will connect with it. 2. Clear Intentions: Set your intention for this visit. Are you seeking inspiration from the Sphinx? The inner peace you desire? Answers to specific questions you seek? The strength to face your life’s challenges? Setting your intention helps your mind focus more. 3. Comfortable Clothing: Wearing comfortable, cotton clothing will help you feel physically comfortable, making it easier to focus on meditation. 4. Book Early: The earlier you book your private visit to the Sphinx, the better, as private visits are only available twice daily. Stage Two: Meditate in the Presence of the Sphinx Once you arrive at the Sphinx area with your companion, choose a spot from which you can see the statue while maintaining a distance that allows for good concentration. 1. Gazing Meditation: – Focus on its features: Begin by gazing quietly into the Sphinx’s silent face. Notice its mysterious expression, its eyes that seem to stare into eternity, and its lines sculpted by time. – Imagine the Spirit: Try to imagine the spirit behind this colossal statue. It is not just a stone, but a symbol of pharaonic wisdom, the power of nature (the lion), and the constancy of time and challenges. – Absorb the Dimensions: Take in the massive size of the statue as a single block of stone. Imagine the amount of work that went into carving it and the engineering precision required. This grandeur alone can be inspiring. 2. Sensory Awareness: – The Sound of Silence: Focus on the sound of “silence” that emanates from the age of this place despite the passage of time. If there is a wind, listen to its whispers through the stones. (The Touch of History: )Imagine the heat of the sun that has always caressed this stone, or the coolness of desert nights, or the rain that has fallen on its body. Feel the antiquity of time in the place. – The Scent of the Desert: Inhale the scent of dry dust and ancient soil; it is a scent that carries the fragrance of thousands of years without change. 3. Spiritual & Visualization Meditation: – Connect to Energy: Imagine a line of energy extending from your spiritual center (or heart) to the heart of the Sphinx. Feel as if you are receiving the wisdom, calm, and strength it radiates. – Existential Questions: Ask yourself: “What does this great edifice mean to me?” “What lessons can I learn from its resilience and steadfastness despite the challenges of time?” “How can I live my life with greater strength and wisdom, without the burdens?” – Visualization as a Shield: Imagine the Sphinx granting you a portion of its strength and steadfastness. Imagine you have the steadfastness of a lion and the wisdom of a human in the face of your challenges. This visualization can serve as a shield to protect you and provide you with confidence. – Silent Messages: Try to be receptive to any “messages,” thoughts, or visions that may arise during your meditation. Don’t immediately analyze them; just let them flow. Stage Three: Draw and Hold Power 1. Gratitude: Conclude your meditation with a moment of gratitude. Thank the Sphinx, the place, and the energy you felt. Gratitude enhances the power of the experience. 2. Conserve Energy: When you leave the site, try to retain the sense of calm and strength you gained. You can close your eyes for a moment and imagine that you are carrying a part of the Sphinx with you. 3. Journal: Write down your notes about the experience: What did you feel? What thoughts came to mind? What insights or inspirations did you receive? Journaling helps cement the experience in your consciousness. 4. Apply in Daily Life: The most important part of gaining strength is applying what you have learned. If you feel grounded, try to be even more grounded in your decisions. If you feel wise, try to apply it in your dealings. The Sphinx is not just a destination; it is a silent landmark. The Sphinx: More than Just a Stone Standing before the Great Sphinx is not just a tourist attraction; it is an invitation to open up to the energy of a sacred place and engage in a silent dialogue with the oldest icon of human civilization. Through mindful meditation, you can transform this visit into an inexhaustible source of inner strength, inspiration, and wisdom that will accompany you long after you leave the sands of Giza. Make your visit to the Sphinx a deep journey into your inner self, and you’ll discover that its silence carries echoes of timeless wisdom.

Masks of Yuya and Thuya in the Egyptian Musuem in Tahrir square
Information about the Tomb of Tuya and Yuya. 

The Tomb of Tuya and Yuya is an important archaeological tomb located in the Valley of the Kings in Luxor, Egypt. It was discovered in 1905 AD; The tomb dates back to the New Kingdom in the Pharaoh’s era, specifically the 18th Dynasty BC. It was one of the few tombs discovered with mummies. The tomb contains the mummies of Tuya and Yuya, the parents of Queen Tiye, wife of King Amenhotep III. The tomb is considered one of the best-preserved tombs in the Valley of the Kings and contains a remarkable collection of artifacts, including funerary furniture, jewelry, and vessels. According to the official page of the Egyptian Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities, the mummies of Yuya and Tuya were discovered wearing cartonnage masks covered in gold leaf. Yuya was the father of Queen Tiye, wife of King Amenhotep III, and the husband of Tuya. Yuya came from the town of Akhmim (North of Luxor), where he is believed to have held a prominent position and held property. He was also a priest of the Egyptian God Min, the official deity in the region. Tuya held important religious titles, in addition to the title of Royal Mother of the Great King’s Wife. The explorer Quibell discovered the tomb on February 12, 1905. All the tomb’s artifacts were contained in a single chamber, devoid of any decoration or inscriptions. Although the tomb had been previously looted, many treasures were found, including artifacts depicting daily life, exquisite funerary furniture, and vessels made of alabaster and colored limestone. The tomb also contained the mummies of Yuya and Yuya, in excellent condition thanks to the high quality of their mummification. They also contained their inner and outer coffins, their masks made of gilded cartonnage inlaid with precious stones, visceral caskets and vessels, ushabti figurines, and the Papyrus of Yuya, inscribed with the Book of the Dead. The king lavished many titles on Tuya and Yuya, which raised them to high ranks, both military and religious. It is certain that Queen Tiye played a major political role in the era of King Amenhotep III and his son Akhenaten, who died in the eighth year of his reign. She participated with her husband in making the most influential decisions until she became widely known among nations and kingdoms. Some historians consider her one of the wisest and most astute Egyptian queens, due to her political cunning and experience in managing affairs. The greatest evidence of all these qualities is a statue of her head that was discovered in 1900 AD. All collections of the tomb are now displayed inside the Egyptian Museum at Tahrir Square.
