Fotoula Adrimi BA(Hons), MSc
Fotoula's Story – Spiritual Teacher
In 2006 I had a spiritual awakening. The ability to see, hear and feel the unseen worlds, that had left me when I became a teenager, returned to me, together with the knowledge and skills of healing and esoteric communication I had from other lives. Gradually I remembered lives as a teacher in the temples of ancient Egypt during the Golden Times, as well as Atlantis. I also remembered several lives when I had walked the shamanic path and it was a joy to again meet my helping spirits in this life.
This awakening changed my life as I could once again communicate with the enlightened beings. The years in-between I lived a conventional life, graduating as a town planner in the university of Thessaly in Greece, and Sorbonne Paris IV in Paris, working in the Regeneration team in the Glasgow City Council, Scotland.
From 2006-2007 my life went through a gradual change. During that time I evaluated what no longer served me and walked away from disempowering conditioned structures. This, I have found, is an unfolding step in our journey of soul evolution.
I am now entirely focussed on being a spiritual teacher of the evolutionary path of the soul, empowering people to expand spiritually and release the unhealthy conditioned ways that limit their soul’s expression and their wellbeing, as well as that of the planet and all living beings. Since 2006 I have trained extensively with other wise teachers, both western and indigenous, and practiced and taught the ancient wisdom. I have helped many people find their calling, and become practitioners and teachers themselves.
Fotoula's work currently centres in five key teachings of light
1) The Mystery School of Ancient Egypt encompasses lifetimes of deep spiritual work to awaken into our shining spirit whilst fully living in the physical reality. This work encompasses my deep memories of spiritual teachings from the Golden Times of ancient Egypt, together with channellings from my helping spirit, the ancient Egyptian Goddess Isis.These courses are not just alternative history narratives, but spiritual teachings shared to guide our spiritual path in our modern times.
​
There is not a day that I do not miss the life experiences in the Temples of the Golden Time of ancient Egypt. Imagine yourself being held in a place of unconditional love, where the veils that keep you away from your inherent divine connection are thin or non existent. During these times, we worked in supportive community to create a state of peace within that was then reflected into the world around us through the practice of the rule of Ma'at: The rule of Divine Justice imbued all areas of our life. We lived life with full awareness, so we could create beauty on earth. These times are no more, but the teachings they held become again accessible to us. As I share the words of my helping spirit, the Goddess Isis, I invite you to seek, as I do, the magnificent light of your spirit.

2) Earth based Shamanism: The drum is my heartbeat and the healing work a deep calling. I carry an ancient lineage through my family but I have also trained in core/classic shamanism with Sandra Ingerman and completed teacher training in 2013. I have worked with western and indigenous shamans from various traditions: Mexican, Peru, Mayan, Toltec, Native American as well as the shamanic path of the Himalayas through Bhola Banstola. I have completed eight moon dances, three vision quests and trained as a sweat lodge facilitator (waterpourer). I carry the sacred pipe, created for me by Mexican indigenous shamans. I am also a Master firewalk instructor, and in my homeland of Greece we have an unbroken sacred tradition of fire walking. The shamanic courses I share range from introduction to shamanism to practitioner and advanced practitioner courses, ancestral shamanic courses, Earth shamanic healing and sacred ceremonies and circles. I also work in shamanic healing with clients in groups or 1-1.
​
3) The Priestess of the Moon™ Lineage: Together with the Triple Goddess and spirits of the Celtic land, I co-created the Priestess of the Moon Training™, which I teach with Fi Sutherland. In 2012 Fi and I were called to climb a sacred hill near Kilmichael glen. At the top we found three large stones, and a group of ancient women in spirit who called themselves the Priestesses of the Moon. These spirits showed us how women embodied their inner wisdom through the heart and acted as priestesses for their tribe. This teaching is very deep and encompasses both mystical ceremonial work and celebrant rituals such as hand fasting, funerals, name giving, blessing work etc.
4) The Rays of Divine Consciousness is an exceptional teaching that helps us heal our spiritual DNA, raise our vibration, and become aware of the karmic seeds that we carry that may obscure our inner vision and cause the repetition of difficult events and unhealthy patterns. This teaching was offered to me in the Celtic Land of Scotland in 2012 and I have been practising and sharing it ever since through the Rays Retreat that takes place near prehistoric sites, and through the Monthly Rays transmissions.
​
5) Past Life Regression: Since graduating as a Clinical Hypnotherapist from the University of West London and the London College of Clinical Hypnosis, I have found that people sometimes carry issues, patterns, and spiritual blocks from other lives into their current life. Some even experience physical conditions, the root cause of which originated in another life. I have brought together past life regression and soul retrieval and developed the Past Life Regression Therapy Course from my extensive experience of working with clients over 16 years. The purpose of this work is much more than just discovering who we were in a past life, it is to actively participate in therapeutic work and heal the past and thus our present incarnation.

Sacred Mysticism of Egypt – Fotoula's Second Book
available for pre-order, due for publication July 2025
On 19th December 2024, Fotoula discovered that her second book, Sacred Mysticism of Egypt is featuring on Amazon, Waterstones and all major bookshops in the UK and is available to pre-order.
This book is so sacred. It is about the Golden Time of Egypt, the Satya time, a place of MA'AT – Divine Justice and Divine Order, an Era of the Divine Heart. The teachings in the book are not just an historical account but evoke memories and hidden knowledge of how we can return to those times.
Fotoula will share snippets of the book before it is released by O-Books in July 2025 through substack. (Substack is similar to a blog that you can subscribe to for free.)
