The Mystery of Akhenaten

This project was to focus on the disappearance of Egyptian Pharaoh Akhenaten, tasked by Don DeCourcelle. He recently presented his findings at IRVA this year. In accordance with his conclusion, I do believe that he drowned, although I feel it was in the Nile River, perhaps in his pursuit of Nefertiti. The focus here is my session, but the results of the project, including Don's Channeling, may be viewed here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X-ADB7cnBqU .


Given the tasking,  The viewer will ignore all theories, written and verbal history, and report ONLY on the actual physical events describing Egyptian Pharaoh Akhenaten’s last days of physical life AND related events immediately after, I believe I probably perceived his death as well as some period in the after life. Let us dig further and discuss Akhenaten, the concept of Ma'at, and the Influence of the “Gods”.


Akhenaten and Ma'at: Devotion to a New Cosmic Order

Akhenaten’s reign as pharaoh (c. 1353–1336 BCE) is one of the more enigmatic periods in ancient Egyptian history. His radical shift from polytheism to a monotheistic worship of the Aten—the visible solar disk—challenged millennia of religious tradition. This devotion was not merely religious but philosophical, embodying the principle of Ma'at, the ancient concept of truth, justice, and cosmic order. For Akhenaten, Aten was Ma'at made manifest: the sun that illuminated and sustained all life.


Maat, in ancient Egyptian religion, the personification of truth, justice, and the cosmic order. Some interesting points:


  • Said to be the daughter of the sun god Ra, she was associated with Thoth

  • Was the wife of Thoth, the god of wisdom and writing.

  • Both Ma'at and Thoth played a role in the judgment of the dead in the afterlife. 

  • Ma'at's feather was used to weigh the hearts of the deceased in the Hall of Judgment. Supposedly Thoth kept a record of the proceedings. 

  • The ancient Egyptians believed that living according to Ma'at's ideals would lead to a good afterlife. Some of Ma'at's ideals included honoring virtue, being peaceful, and respecting the property of others. 


Akhenaten’s reign was more than a theological experiment; it represented a cosmic reordering. Some scholars suggest that Akhenaten’s emphasis on Ma'at and the Aten reflected an almost obsessive belief in creating balance, not just in Egypt, but in the entire universe.

One speculative theory suggests that Akhenaten’s religious revolution could have been guided by something beyond human understanding. Were his visions and religious ideas influenced by something alien—a higher intelligence that communicated with him under the guise of divine revelation? Some believe that Akhenaten’s vision of Ma'at was not a concept but a way to align Egypt—and possibly humanity—with the cosmic and spiritual order of the universe. His monotheism may have been an attempt to impose a singularity of worship, a universal truth that reached beyond Earth and into the stars.


Nefertiti’s Role: A Spiritual Departure or an Escape?


Nefertiti, Akhenaten’s queen, is equally shrouded in mystery. Known for her beauty and power, Nefertiti co-ruled with Akhenaten during the early years of his reign and was deeply involved in his religious reforms. However, around the twelfth year of Akhenaten’s reign, she disappears from the historical record. What caused her departure? Was it political, personal, or something more esoteric?


Some scholars propose that Nefertiti’s disappearance may have been related to a divergence in spiritual beliefs. Though initially united in their devotion to Aten, could Nefertiti have become disillusioned with Akhenaten’s increasingly radical approach? Or, taking a more speculative approach, could she have been drawn to another individual, following or force—one that opposed Akhenaten’s vision of cosmic order?


The Disappearance of Akhenaten: Drowning in the Nile or Vanishing from Earth?


Akhenaten’s own disappearance is equally mysterious. Some accounts suggest he simply died and was succeeded by his son Tutankhamun, but no conclusive evidence of his death has ever been found. Could his end have been more dramatic—possibly involving betrayal, deceit or intrigue? Some speculate that Akhenaten may have drowned in the Nile, the sacred river of Egypt, while attempting to find Nefertiti. Data here seems to suggest that his death might even have been helped along.



In ancient Egypt, the Nile was more than a geographical feature—it was a divine boundary between life and death, a river that connected the world of the living with the afterlife. The idea of Akhenaten drowning in the Nile could symbolize the transition from the human plane entering the domain of the gods, or even with extraterrestrial beings.


Around this same time frame Thera, the Aegaen island erupted (circa1600 BCE) and it is believed by some that there may have been a cyclical comet cluster affecting Earth during this same period, but every 3600 years, putting it in conjuction with more contemporary times.







Extraterrestrial Influence: Were the “Gods” Aliens?



The possibility that ancient Egyptian deities were actually extraterrestrial visitors is a controversial but fascinating idea to explore and shows up often in remote viewing results. Could Akhenaten’s connection to Ma'at and Aten represent not a theological revelation, but an encounter with alien forces guiding humanity toward cosmic integration?


Speculatively, Akhenaten’s insistence on the singular worship of Aten and his preoccupation with Ma'at might have been a way to prepare humanity for future contact with extraterrestrial civilizations. His disappearance, along with Nefertiti’s, might signify their ascent into a higher reality, one orchestrated by forces far beyond the understanding of the ancient world.




Granite was transported along the river Nile. The biggest quarries were located in the South of the country. The Egyptian granite became famous because of its colors rose, dark red, grey and black.
