Welcome to the website of Alkhemi, an ethical and holistic company specialising in natural healing and self-empowerment, inspired by the wisdom traditions of ancient Egypt. 

 

"The wisdom of Egypt is not dead but eternal. It has invisibly shaped the history of the world." 

Ancient Egyptian Wisdom, Naomi Ozaniec 

My name is Jacqui Taliesin El Masry. For more than a decade I've been working intuitively with the healing energies of ancient Egypt and researching Egyptian spiritual traditions. As a result I've discovered an amazing truth - these ancient teachings are universal and can be used today in a profound and powerful way for self-empowerment and spiritual growth! 

From the signposts of my own personal spiritual journey a psycho-spiritual system manifested that allows everyone to align with their Eternal Self and realise their connection to Source, using the archetypes, mythology and energy streams of ancient Egypt. This system of natural healing and self-empowerment is Alkhemi Sekhem, a path of contemporary spirituality and well-being with its heart in the Wisdom Traditions of ancient Egypt.

Alkhemi Sekhem courses are available in the UK and worldwide. Click here for details of how to organise a course in your local area. Alkhemi Sekhem First Degree is now available as a Home Studies course! Click here for more information.  

Two years ago I began empowering my spiritual tools with the energies of Alkhemi Sekhem. This lead to the creation of Alkhemi Egyptian Anointing Oils and the Alkhemi Sacred Crystals Set.

 

After qualifying as a Dru yoga teacher my personal practice quickly took on an Egyptian flavour. I'm currently developing Alkhemi Yoga which combines holistic, flowing yoga with the spiritual anatomy of Alkhemi Sekhem. 

Experience the magic and mystery of Egypt for yourself! Divine Travel is our holistic travel company specialising in spiritual journeys and yoga retreats in the sacred land of Egypt. 

Would you like to sample the magic of Alkhemi? Are you organising a holistic event? Do you know a group who are interested in healing and spirituality? I have designed several exciting and interactive Talks and Workshops on ancient Egyptian wisdom, which I am available to present across the UK.  

I'm really excited about the latest Alkhemi Project. I've created the Energy Alignment Pendant as a way of giving something back to a country that has enriched my life beyond measure. The Pendant is made of nine different crystals which have been empowered with the energy of nine Egyptian deities. It's grounding and centering, and it clears and balances the whole Energy Field of the wearer. It costs just £6.00 (that's just over $9.00) and Alkhemi has donated all the materials and make-up costs, so 100% of the price goes to two charities working in Egypt: Animal Care in Egypt provides free veterinary services and educational programmes to schools. Little Stars cares for orphaned, abandoned, disabled and disadvantaged children in Luxor, regardless of gender or religion.  Click on the illustration to find out more!

Egypt is my passion! 

It's one of life's many amazing synchronicities that the very day I began to write these words to welcome visitors to my website, I realised it was exactly ten years (to the day!) since I had first set foot in the ancient land of Khemet (Egypt). I had travelled alone to stay with an English lady who was teaching Egyptian mysteries at the edge of the desert, literally a stone's throw from the Pyramids of Giza. Her house in Nazlet el Sammam overlooked the Giza plateau, and every morning I would look out of my bedroom window to watch the pyramids and Sphinx emerge, ghost-like, from the hazy morning mist. 

Two months before, I had been initiated into the First and Second Degree of a (then) little known Egyptian healing system called Sekhem, and I was entranced by its beautiful but powerful energy. Once in Egypt I was intoxicated by every aspect of the country. My senses were overwhelmed day and night by foreign sounds and exotic fragrances - incense (bahour), apple flavoured tobacco smoked in sheesh pipes, mint tea, Egyptian perfume oils, horses and donkeys clattering past in the street, yowling cats, barking dogs, the call to prayer (muezzin) echoing five times a day from the many local mosques, and the rapid-fire Arabic of playful children. 

And then the pyramids and temples.....it was of little matter that my mind could not comprehend the hieroglyphs, my heart was ecstatic every time I entered a sacred site. The air felt heavy and golden, every stone and space radiated energy.

On the last night of my stay we dressed in galabeyas and rode on camels into the desert close to the pyramids. We completed the course with an Isis meditation under the stars. That night there was a major Harmonic Convergence. Earth, Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn were all beautifully aligned in Taurus. My fate was sealed - my love affair with Egypt had begun!

 

The Emergence of Alkhemi Sekhem

I have spent the last decade working with, and being guided by Egyptian deities, and researching ancient Egyptian mysteries. I even managed to spend an amazing year living in Luxor. 

I prefer to call myself the "Original Manifestor" of Alkhemi Sekhem. It wasn't created by me, it birthed itself through me. I simply held a space for it to emerge and manifest. I spent many, many hours pouring over books and researching online, but divine inspiration always guided me forward, and that came through contemplation and meditation. The deities have inspired me constantly, gently guiding me to the next port of call on my journey, nudging me firmly if I ever doubted their, or my, wisdom, and reassuring me with their all-embracing love. 

My Sekhem teachers must have their credit too. Without them Alkhemi Sekhem would never have manifested. My sincerest gratitude to Karen Stratton, Simon Treselyan and Patrick Zeigler (who originally experienced the Sekhem energy during a night spent in the Great Pyramid in 1979). And then there were the insights during therapy sessions with clients, and on the courses I presented. Deities, teachers, colleagues, students, clients - all have contributed. Alkhemi Sekhem is truly a universal manifestation! 

Over 5,000 years ago, the ancient Egyptians had a sophisticated spiritual philosophy based on symbolism, which informed every part of their existence. They saw the Earth as a physical manifestation of Heaven, a living symbol of the inner spiritual world, and as such everything was regarded as sacred. Natural principles and forces were personified as deities (gods and goddesses). Life was seen as a continuous quest to align the physical world with its divine source, which they accomplished by forming meaningful relationships with their deities.

The Pyramid Texts are the oldest religious writings in the world, and the threads of ancient Egyptian wisdom weave through Western culture, underpinning our religious and philosophical traditions - from Paganism to Platonism, Judaism to Christianity, Sufism to alchemy, from the Renaissance to the western magical tradition. And there are similarities with Eastern wisdom too. Whilst training to be a Dru Yoga teacher, I studied Yogic philosophy, and was fascinated to recognise Egyptian deities and themes in Hindu mythology. This is universal wisdom!

Experience the healing power of ancient Egyptian wisdom!

Alkhemi Sekhem is a system of natural healing and self-empowerment with its heart in ancient Egyptian wisdom traditions. 

Alkhemi Sekhem has two main principles. Firstly, it allows anyone to access an unlimited supply of beneficial, intelligent, universal energy in a safe, simple and natural way. The energy flows through the Human Bio-field (body and energy field) and is guided by the hands to wherever it is needed: people, pets, plants, places, planets, relationships or issues.

Secondly, it uses a psycho-spiritual model, in which ancient Egyptian metaphysical archetypes (deities and symbols) are associated with specific areas of the Human Bio-field. Working in a sacred way with the mystical principles of each deity will support your natural healing processes, balancing and transforming any physical, mental, emotional or spiritual issues. In this way, Egyptian gods and goddesses are not vestiges of a remote and forgotten tradition, but active elements that are alive in all of us today.

 

What is "Alkhemi"? 

The ancient name for Egypt was "Khemet", literally "the black land", referring to the rich, fertile soil of the Nile valley. Early Arabs settlers called it "Al Khem". From this are derived the words "alchemy" and "chemistry". Alchemy is often seen as the science of changing lead into gold, but it is essentially, and more significantly, a process of refining the spiritual self - the art of transformation. 

Empower Yourself! 

Help Others to Heal! 

Transform Your Life!!

The beliefs and methods described on this website are one way of working with the energies of ancient Egypt, but they are not the only way. They are offered with an open heart and an open mind, and a genuine desire that you accept only that which resonates deeply with your own purpose in this life. 

In love and gratitude,
Sa Sekhem Sahu!
