Radiant Rainbow Healing Sierraden voor Hart, Geest, lichaam & Ziel



Mijn vriendin Iris Meijer ontwerpt en maakt haar eigen mooie en unieke sieraden genaamd Radiant Rainbow. Haar originele juwelen helpen en ondersteunen bij genezen, de ontwikkeling van lichaam, geest, hart en geest – of voor het aantrekken van liefde, overvloed, positieve energie en nog veel meer!

Elk stuk is uniek in zijn soort en wordt speciaal afgestemd en voor jou alleen gemaakt. Iris maakt de sierraden in opdracht en zijn toegesneden op de specifieke wensen van de klant. Om meer te zien van haar prachtige sieraden klik op de link naar haar huidige collectie.

Iris woont en werkt in Alexandrië en vindt haar bron van inspiratie en stenen in Egypte. Deze twee stukken tonen de Egyptische invloed in haar werk. Zodra het sierraad klaar is zorgt Iris er voor dat de stenen hun werk kunnen doen zoals helen, beschermen, dynamiek brengen in de liefde en overvloed bezorgen aan de eigenaar.


Zelf heb ik een prachtige ketting die Iris al ruim voor mijn komst had ontworpen. Zij wist toen nog niet dat dit betreffende collier voor mij bestemd was. In Luxor waar zij toen nog woonde was ik op slag verliefd op de ketting. De kleuren passen goed bij me en ik houd van de stenen die ze gebruikt heeft. Ik draag hem altijd als ik voel me gelukkig en wil dat dit zo blijft, er zijn vele mooie "ogen" in dit collier om mij te beschermen “tegen het boze oog”. Verder zijn er parels, vlinders, lapis lazuli en maanstenen in verwerkt.

U kunt nog veel meer van Iris sieraden op facebook zien
en haar eigen commentaar op haar werk.

Fort Qaitbey Alexandria with Iris Meijer & Caroline Dekker




Together with my friend and felow tour guide Iris Meijer we visied Fort Qaitbey, which is an amazing experience offering the real feel of the various layers of military dominance of Alexandria, this ancient defense stands on a narrow peninsula overlooking the sea on the eastern point of the Pharos Island. It was erected on the site of the famous Lighthouse of Alexandria, which was known to be one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.




The Fort was built in the 15th century by the Sultan Al-Ashraf Abou Anasr Saif El-Din Qaitbay El-Jerkasy Al-Zahiry, He was a Mamluke who had come to Egypt as a young man. He became one of the most important Mameluke Sultans, and ruled for about 29 years. He provided the fort with a brave legion of soldiers and various weapons.



Throughout the Mameluke period, and due to its strategic location, the Citadel was well maintained by all the rulers who came after Qaitbay.

The Sultan Qansoh El-Ghoury increased the strength of the garrison, providing it with various weapons and equipment. It included a large prison made for the princes and the state-men who had obviously found disfavour with the sultan.



After the Ottoman Turks had conquered Egypt, they also maintained the fort and stationed it with infantry, artillery, a company of drummers and trumpeters, masons and carpenters.
As the Ottoman military became weak, the Citadel began to lose its military importance.

In 1798 Napoleon Bonaparte brought his expedition to Egypt and they took over the fort, and brought their weapons to the garrison.

When Mohammed Ali became the ruler of Egypt in 1805, he renovated the old Citadel, restoring and repairing its outer ramparts, and he provided the stronghold with the most modern weapons of the period.

In 1882 the British fleet bombarded Alexandria causing severe destruction to the fort, and it remained in ruins until king Farouk decided he wanted to have it restored.

Since then it has been a maritime museum and has been greatly improved by the work of the antiquities service.

Tarot Reading with Caroline Dekker



Since 1984 I started to use my first Tarot deck, and I have been hooked to thier symbolic language. With a lot of pleasure, I lay the cards for people to get things clear or just help them further on, using my intuition & Spiritual guides to help or relate their card reading. I also give courses in reading the Tarot.

I have just been given a new pack of Tarot cards whilst I was working in Egypt as a gift from my good friend Iris Mejer of Hidden Egypt spiritual tours, and they are the most beautiful cards to work with and I cant wait to start using them, so thank you Iris for your lovely gift to me.
The Tarot is a very old and sophisticated divinatory system. The wisdom and beauty of the mysterious cards have intrigued humanity throughout the ages, it embodies many profound and ancient teachings which pass far beyond their divinatory interpretations. A deck of Tarot cards contains 22 Major Arcana cards. Arcana means secrets and there are 56 remaining cards . These Major Arcana can be considered the Gate keepers of Higher Knowlegde. It’s a dialogue without words, the language is symbolic, some of the paintings just speaks for themselves.Tarot is a valuable tool and can be used to get greater spiritual understanding and self-awareness. The Tarot does not belong to any religion. The traditional Tarot embodies the imagery and motifs of a wide range of cultures and belief systems.
