Path of the Sphinx
Path of the Sphinx

It was my second day in Luxor and I was eager to go exploring. On this day I had Luxor Temple in mind. It is located in the center of Luxor and was just a 20 minute taxi ride from my hotel. The taxi driver said he would pick me up and asked me how long I would be. Learning from my lesson yesterday I left it open. Tourist time does not apply to me. It could be ten minutes or it could be three hours.

The ticket office is just by the square that sits before the temple gates. As you enter the temple is to your left, on the right there is a long path with sphinx statues on either side. The path is about a couple of hundred metres in length. I pulled out my dowsing rods and queried as to the place where I needed to be to prepare myself for entering the temple. The rods took me the full length of the path of the sphinx, in the mid-day sun.

I was taken to a smooth rock and told to place it at the starting point. The picture shows the rock and the distance from the temple, well sort of. This done, I was expecting to walk back to the temple, but the rods had other plans. The energy path that I had to take took me to each sphinx. One after the other. Left, right and left again. When you are following rods, you tend to walk slightly slower than normal and in that sun. It was hot and a long journey.

Also, actually, quite a lonely one, as no one else had even entered the path whilst I was working there. My left-right journey continued until I reached about half way. At this point another path from the right joins the main walk-way. Whether this path is ancient or modern I don’t know. But if I were to make an energetic guess, I would say modern. Because at that point, it is as if the energy (path) had been pushed to the left. Now before this point, I was walking from each sphinx to the other, across the central path you can see. Now, however, I had been pushed off the main central path and was walking between the sphinx on the left and the left edge of the path, in the sand.
