Order of the Emerald Feather
I'm so honored to share with you all something profound that's been culminating and cultivating for many years, and today is officially being initiated in a living structure...
The Order of the Emerald Feather - the Lineage of Ma'at Djehuty
Ok, so let's rewind a bit..... In 2001: I was visited by a teacher from the spirit-world during a deep meditation, who announced his name was Thoth. I knew nothing about him. But by paying attention to his guidance, he quickly revealed he was going to walk with me through thick and thin... and guided me to every book, every teacher, and through the many lessons needed until I finally stepped foot on Egyptian soil in 2006 - forever changing my life.
Since then — through consistent study, initiations, multiple Ordinations, silence, teaching and guiding, expressing through the arts, becoming a Medical Qigong Doctor, and most importantly, listening—I've stayed rooted in devotion to walking in relationship with this current of wisdom known in the ancient world as Ma’at Djehuty. I have also supported the under-served community in Egypt through my work with the Sunshine Home orphanage in Luxor since 2009, and continue to provide supportive structures for them into adulthood.
In my shared teachings, I weave in my indigenous spirituality from Ireland, and all the wisdom teachings from Egypt and my immersion in multiple disciplines, & my love for the Mystic Path beyond all denomination.

This current is not mine, it is not owned or invented.
It is a living vibration.
Ma’at is the principle of balance—the architecture of truth that holds worlds together. She governs law and order, righteousness, integrity and harmony.
Djheuty, known to many as Thoth, is the articulation of that balance into language, number, magic, writing, geometry, art, and science. In Egyptian mythology, the union of Ma'at and Thoth symbolizes the inseparable relationship between divine order and divine wisdom—Ma’at as the living principle of Order, and Djehuty as the sacred intelligence that sustains that order.
Across the world, across civilizations and eras, this same current appear's through many, many orders, spiritual lineages, indigenous traditions, mystery schools, great minds and leaders, and sacred traditions. It has worn many names. It has taken many forms. Yet its essence is consistent: the dance of harmonizing heaven and earth through conscious alignment, mastering our center... what the Buddhists call 'walking the middle path'.
Today, on this February 17th 2026, under the New Moon in Aquarius and the Ring of Fire eclipse, I am formally establishing the Order of the Emerald Feather.

I am honoring the divine aspects, that have unequivocally supported me in my walk with the Divine, through officially ordaining a contemporary container, aligned to a protective lineage for my students, initiates, and graduates.
This stunning artwork is by Ely de Avila, who brought my concept art to life, by drawing with pencil and then hand-painting in watercolor this stunning piece which encapsulates the power and beauty of the lineage of Ma'at Djehuty. Her work is phenomenal and I am so excited to also announce that she is the artist I have commissioned, after a long search, for my upcoming book and other awesome projects in the works together!
The feather of Ma’at represents the calibration of the heart to truth. Emerald speaks to the living frequency of the heart chakra—order established, wisdom embodied and relational - it also nods to the Emerald Tablet, and of course to my dear Emerald Isle (did you know there is a direct connection between Ireland and Egypt through Thoth?).
An Order is structure: a container through which timeless principles can be practiced, preserved, and transmitted responsibly in the modern world. Training Priests and Priestesses of high caliber - dedicated to restoring and upholding Ma'at.
Working with the wisdom of Thoth and Ma'at is not unique to Egypt, for these are names placed upon the Divine Forces and Divine functions that emanate from one Divine source, and are accessible to all who align to their principles and virtues of truth, integrity and wisdom.
For two decades, I have guided neophytes through rebirth in the living temples of Egypt...This lineage has always existed in, and been guided by, the unseen forces... witnessed and guided by the gracious Guardians in the spirit world, and transmitted through offerings, symbol, synchronicity, ceremony, dreamtime and night school, geometry, meditation, qigong movement, and the field of remembrance itself.
Wisdom teachings must root into a community, into ethical frameworks, into shared practice. Without this embodiment, it drifts into mythology. With embodiment, they become a lighthouse.
And so, this up-coming Spring Equinox in Egypt, the first Cohort of the Order will be formally Ordained—Fourteen Priests and Priestesses committed to this Path of Gold, Truth and Wisdom in action, having extensively and diligently trained for the past 3 years.
The Equinox marks equilibrium—light and dark in perfect measure. It is the appropriate threshold for such a beginning.
We also honor the many streams that have carried the Thothic current through time—Hermetic traditions, sacred geometry lineages (such as Pythagoras, Plato, Leonardo da Vinci, Buckminster Fuller), myriad esoteric schools across East and West. We recognize them as facets of a larger pattern.
Perennial Wisdom is meant to passed down and on and on and on. It's not meant to be for the chosen few, especially not now when the world is in such turmoil. It is the decree of the Masters of radiance in the spirit world, who exist in the subtle architecture beneath visible form, to lead with responsibility in sharing these precious teachings.
And so, with this Order, is a promise:
To root Djehuty wisdom teachings in integrity.
To embody Ma’at in action, thought, word and deed.
The Order begins as a grounded commitment to being in service to the Divine. It will endure through embodiment, integrity, continuous integration of wisdom teachings from myriad traditions, cultural correspondences, and joy of the heart.
The 'ol mission statement is:
The Order of the Emerald Feather - Lineage of Ma’at Djehuty is a fellowship of initiates, scribes, healer-Priests/Priestesses and Ma’at-bearers devoted to the sacred restoration of balance through the Living presence of Ma’at and the wisdom frequencies and teachings of Djehuty.

I'm so grateful to all my students, Egypt Sacred Initiation journey initiates, all my amazing teachers, beloved family and friends, the online community of strangers from around the world who connect through social media and this newsletter list, the Egyptian people who have entrusted me to work with them for 20 years and counting, and to the Divine Neteru who continue to guide the way. I'm so grateful to the Túatha of my homeland in Ireland for rooting the mystic path, the magical unseen world into my blood and bones.
It's with so much joy and gratitude that I share this profound news with you on this magical day, and wish you all the biggest blessings for all that you will forge and share in this transformative year of the Fire Horse, that is beckoning for your truest, boldest, most authentic-self to lead your path ahead.
With love,
in the Spirit of Ma'at,
Dee
