Searching for the Bird God

[AndrewTheSinger]

Ever since I became fascinated by Ancient Egypt I've been trying to get an impression of Harakhte / Horus, the Bird-God, and after some failed and silly experiences I think I finally got something.

The silly experience was very dreamlike, I was traveling with somebody, in the modern world, and at some point we went to his house, he said he had to use the toilet. When he was going there his grandfather appeared, it was the bird-man. He moved towards me very slowly, because he was old, and it seemed that he was trying to sting me with his beak. He didn't look like Harakhte, looked more like Thot, it was funny but he kinda annoyed me, so I got a broom and started pushing him away with it.

Ok, so today I had a failed first attempt in finding the Bird-God, but then I remained in trance and started spinning to deepen more, and without shape I left my house to enter another house that I didn't know, and from there I tried to imagine that outside was a different space and time.

I imagined ancient egyptians walking outside, so I opened the window a little in order to see them, wishing they would not see me. Many of them had their hair dyed red. Their clothes were normal, they had t-shirts and shorts, only they looked very spent and were of dim colours.

There was something going on outside, they started making a lot of noise when suddenly someone opened the window completely, they found me. I jumped outside to see what was happening, they didn't understand who I was, they knew that I shouldn't be there. I couldn't make sense of their words. They pulled me from side to side.

Someone came riding on an elephant to scare those people away. That elephant was very aggressive, it started hurting the people. I could feel the weight of the animal trying to crush someone beside me, then I thought about giving up, but then I thought again and said 'No, I'm staying right here.'.

Concentrating more I managed to build enough confidence to fight the elephant and save the others, all I had to do was to think that the elephant was not heavy and not strong. When the beast came towards me I grabbed it's ears and held it's head down to the ground, the people ran, and then the elephant went away.

Now I had the chance to see how beautiful that city was, the tall pillars, dusty streets, everything was perfect. Walked inside a courtyard and a crawler dinosaur passed running by me... (this seems to be getting dreamy, but bare with me the end was cool)

Guess I found what scared the crawler, 2 very big dinosaurs are coming in my direction. The ground shakes as they move, I run with the other people. These beasts don't seem to be after us, but they are certainly dangerous and destructive because they can go through any man-made barrier. Unlike in the movies they didn't make vocal sounds, and they were not so fast.

Don't see anyone being eaten, but they are causing a big mess and ruining my experience, I'm not sure that I can defeat them, so again I think about giving it up. A voice speaks in my head 'Raise you chest.', I think it is a message by my higher-self, I do as it says.

More confident again, I go towards the 2 great reptiles and punch their legs. Have to sway away from those teeth and try not to be crushed by the gigantic paws, they are extremely heavy, all I can think is that they are not strong.

Still fighting them it kinda starts to work, they are stumbling, I make a final attack and one of the dinosaurs rolls and crashes against a huge wall. Can't remember what happened to the other one, it might have escaped.

There's a staircase to the upper part of the temple, I go up there and behold it in it's splendour. In front of me is dark night, the temple expands to the left and right sides. Moving to the right side I find at the base of every monolith something that resembles a small crystal that emits fluorescent light. There are no power lines.

That place is unbelievable, I stare up into the sky and feel the wind of the night. There are so many things to see, I find monoliths of birds and snakes, all more than 2 meters high, and on the right and left edges of the temple are huge stone walls. Exploring the left side there are many monoliths too, I take a look at the wall and the drawings. It has carvings and holes that look like a mask of Harakhte.

Then it happened, from behind the clouds above the left wall he appears, he seems to be about 10 meters tall, more than 2 times higher than the wall. He approaches, crouches behind the wall, and puts his face and beak inside the 'mask' carved on the rock.

His eyes are larger than a human skull, he adjusts his eyes and looks straight at mine. They are very human-like, brown iris and black pupils. I see only sanctity in his eyes. No words are spoken, whistles, nor thoughts, I don't know what happened after that, but I woke up, of that I'm sure...


I can't find anything to compare it with, it was sort of like looking into the eyes of a baby, but babies display emotions, his eyes displayed only peace and sanctity, but I mean, he had to give me that, I fought 1 elephant and 2 dinosaurs just to get there, come on, lol
