The incantation you have (the Astral Travel one) is purely phonetic, how the words should be pronounced. The best way I can think of it is this:
Duat Aken, Ka, Ren, Ba, Ib, Sheut,
Duat Aken Ma’at.
Duat – a metaphysical Spirit World, where everything connnected to Egyptian magic and afterlife seems to occur. It contains the Egyptian paradise (Aaru).
Aken – as mentioned before, the ferryman of the dead (compare with Greek Charon).
Ka, Ren, Ba, Ib, and Sheut – five parts of a human soul, according to the Ancient Egyptians. “Ka” is the spark of life, the only part that distinguishes the living from the dead. “Ren” is the name, the essence of a living being. “Ba” is personality, what makes the person unique. “Ib” is the heart, the sum of good and bad deeds (A person’s Ib is later judged by Osiris, to see if they’re worthy of paradise). Finally, “Sheut” is the shadow – an imprint of the person in both the physical world and Duat. If nothing else, I’d compare it to a failsafe program – a small piece of the soul is hidden inside the shadow.
Ma’at is both an Egyptian goddess of order, as well as the concept of balance and harmony itself.
When all of those elements are put together, we may conclude that this spell is a prayer to Akem the Ferryman, to guide the person (all five parts of them) through Duat safely (“with Ma’at”)
