The following pathworking has been taken from the excellent book Magical Pathworkings by Nick Farrell.

       

Healing for a Sexual Abuse Victim Pathworking.

 

 

Allow yourself to relax as much as possible Regulate your breathing, and allow these following Images to appear in your mind's eye.

 

Before you is a curtain, upon which is a picture of a set of golden   scales.

 

Concentrate on the curtain, and the scales will start to glow with power. The curtain parts, and standing before you is a being with a jackal head. This is Anubis. He says, ‘Why do you seek the Temple of Maat?’   

 

You reply, ‘I have been wronged, and this wrong has created an imbalance that is against the rule of Maat. I seek justice so that balance may be restored.’     

 

Anubis replies ‘All calls for justice in the temple of Maat are heard. Are you ready?’

 

If you agree, then the jackal-headed god will allow you to enter the gate. He says, ‘Enter thou then the halls of justice, the place of truth, the judgment hall of Maat.’

 

You find yourself in a vast Egyptian temple It ls the colour of flame. Arranged in a semicircle before you are figures seated on thrones cut from red sandstone They are dressed alike in kilts and nemyss of black and yellow Some are human, but others are animal: Each wears a necklace in the shape of a flying hawk, and each carries a flail in their left hand. These are the forty-two assessors; the force of cosmic justice that even judges the Gods.

 

In front of them is a giant pair of scales. Behind the scales is a beautiful woman. On the crown upon her head is the red feather of truth, which represents absolute truth. The woman is Maat; she is a force of cosmic balance, and just looking at her calms you further. This is a person to be trusted. Maat asks you slowly and quietly to tell the story of what happened to you. Starting at the beginning, you recount everything you can remember. The court is hushed as you tell your story.

 

Maat come from behind the scales.

 

She says, ‘Every story has two sides. Therefore, we must also hear the person you have accused. Be aware that in this place no harm can come to you, for there is not a god nor demon who can withstand my power.’

 

Then in a voice that commands the very atoms of life she says, ‘Bring forth the accused!’

 

A hawk-headed God enters. This is Horus, and he has a sword in his right hand. In his left hand he holds a thick chain attached to four dog-faced demons. Between them, also chained and looking tiny and impotent, is the accused. (He or she) looks at the scales with terror.

 

Maat approaches and asks the accused to patiently explain (his or her) side of the story. In the halls of truth, it is impossible to lie. What does this person say?

 

Maat goes over to the accused and puts her hand deep into (his or her) chest. There is no blood, but she pulls out a ball of energy . This is the heart of the accused. Only in the hall of truth is this possible without the death of the person. She places the ball of light on one of the scales.

 

You have the impression that something is being decided. The forty-two assessors are telepathically debating the merits of the case with exact precision. They outstretch their arms, pointing their fingers toward the scales. The scales begin glowing with power.

 

Maat places the feather of truth upon the empty scales.

 

The scales sink on the side of the heart. The weight of the person’s guilt is too heavy to support the truth. There is a rumbling as the ground shakes slowly.

 

‘My rule has been shaken by this unbalanced act. It is necessary to restore it and make the victim whole again,’ says Matt.

 

She turns to the guilty person. ‘You who have violated this fellow human and the rule of Matt, are now free from my protection. Those dog-faced demons are your violent aspects, bestial and untamed. These are what you release onto others, creating harm.’

 

Taking the feather of truth, she touches each of the dog-faced demons in turn and then says to the guilty person ‘Therefore, I have decided that each time these demons are released, they will attack only you. This will happen in this lifetime and will continue to happen until you master these demons. This is the will of Matt.’

 

Maat throws the heart to the nearest demon, who eats it hungrily.

 

The chains fall from the demons and the guilty person. (He or she) flees the temple, closely followed by the demons who are biting at his or her heels.

 

Maat looks at you. ‘That is only part of the work of justice. Justice must be seen to heal the victim of the wrong that has been committed.’

 

She leans into you and takes your heart. There is no pain, just a tingling. She places your heart on one of the scales and puts her feather of truth on the other. But unlike the last time when there was judgement, she holds the scales in your favour, slowly moving them so that they are in perfect balance with her feather.

 

‘I who am the force of cosmic justice restore your heart to perfect balance and harmony,’ she says.

 

She returns your heart to you. You feel momentarily dizzy as your heart moves to restore all the energy centers to their proper balance.

 

She looks at you, ‘ Know this, Child of Earth, that youi are truly healed and the rule of Maat is established in your very body. Go now with my blessing and live your life in balance and truth.’

 

Still a little groggy, you thank Maat and leave via the door through which you entered.
