The Magdalene Awakening

"You don't find the Holy Grail, the Holy Grail finds you." The Da Vinci Code page 412

Oh, how true that statement was for me! I first heard that proclamation on the audio version of The Da Vinci Code, and it suddenly brought together so many pieces of my journey. Mary Magdalene, the alleged 'Holy Grail,' had been tapping me on the shoulder until I heeded her call. She made her message known to me in subtle yet profound ways. First, she showed up in the past life memories of my clients. Then she used mysterious symbols, eery synchronicities, dreams, ancient legend and history, Gematria, AND voices from beyond the veil to gain my attention. It took me years to recognize her 'voice' and follow the spiritual path laid out before me.
There are many paths to awakening, this book is the story of mine. Born to a Christian family, I have always loved Jesus. His original messages of love, brotherhood and humility are the main guiding forces in my life. I have a deep faith; but faith didn't come easily, and it was never enough for me. My soul always yearned for something more than simply following the flock to eternal life. As inviting a concept as that is, I needed to know more; and I truly believed that the real key to comprehending life - both mortal and everlasting - lay not in "religion" which divides men, but in the "religious experience" which pushes down the walls between us, creating the possibility for true brotherhood, compassion and understanding.
Christianity, from its inception, was divided. There were the exoteric teachings given to the masses, and the esoteric teachings held by elite rulers. Unlike Eastern religions, the Christian Church kept the mystical experience for 'the initiated,' leaving the masses only rules and laws, rituals and prayer. At best, this kept followers 'in line', at worst, it blocked divine contact on a personal level.
According to modern day physics, we can observe only 1% of the known universe. The remaining 99% is beyond our ability to detect with our five senses. We have been judging what we consider to be reality with access to only 1% of what truly exists. Today's Christians, though mostly untrained in the internal journey, have the opportunity to reach beyond the exoteric, to explore the 99% uncharted spiritual world available to anyone willing to begin. These are the times when the esoteric teachings are being revealed to men and women all over the world.
I have become privy to a religious and spiritual experience filled with many of the secrets of the universe. I have found answers in areas that few of today's Christians dare to explore, such as reincarnation, past life regression, channeling; and the possibility that humans can obtain the 'forbidden fruit' of knowledge, if we just open up, listen, feel and learn; AND that these divine messages are handed down with God's blessing, not condemnation. Add to these beliefs, the metaphysical teachings of master numbers, synchronicity, and Gematria, and some would even brand me a heretic.
Ironically, each area I've explored during my spiritual journey has brought me closer to Jesus. Starting with the New Testament, moving through the study of the Edgar Cayce material and A Course in Miracles; learning from the teachings of John the Beloved through White Eagle; discovering the 'Good Christians' called the Cathars; and culminating in Julia Ingram's book, The Messengers - all of these made it abundantly clear that Jesus was the common denominator.
Foremost of my "heretical" beliefs is that the FULL message of Jesus must include the divine feminine voice of God epitomized by Mary Magdalene – and her energy of compassion and intuition. Magdalene is the bridge builder, offering an opportunity for the world to do it 'another way.' She calls us to embrace her offerings along with her dual nature, human and divine.
Mary Magdalene is everywhere these days, and for a very good - and very specific - reason. She is the symbol of the re-emergence of the Divine Feminine - the female counterpart of Jesus in the Christ Consciousness, and the true voice of the second coming. Millions of people worldwide are hearing the call of her voice, and awakening to a magical, life-transforming spiritual journey. I am privileged to be one of those people. We are called "Lightworkers," "Rainbow Warriors," and "Wayshowers" - people across the world experiencing their own spiritual emergence who are remembering that we were a part of a group incarnation.
A group incarnation is a group of souls who choose to incarnate together at different times of history with a shared mission. One group incarnation awakening today consists of those who remember being Cathars, part of a group of early primitive Christians living in the Middle Ages in Europe.
It was through my own memory of being a Cathar that I began to hear the voice of the Divine Feminine through Mary Magdalene. On the journey I insisted on proof and found it in the history of the Cathars and the intervention of synchronicities and symbols. I called the 'contact' experience "my angels." My angels took me on an exciting adventure crossing the planet to meet hundreds of soul mates as I uncovered secrets contained in unlikely symbols, such as: the Lily, 444, Mary Magdalene and more.
Frankly, I'm glad I couldn't do it the simple way, as Jesus suggested, by taking all on faith; because this course work has been fascinating, and by my indulging in it, I have been happy and fulfilled. And so on the path, I took the time to sit and read the books that intuitively I knew were next in line, and observed and followed the markers along the way, and the journey unfolded, insights were born. And somewhere I found the time to write it all down.
As my story came together, I sought to pull together seemingly unrelated threads, to weave a fabric that would be comprehensible to a culture without the map of the transpersonal. Ancient cultures encouraged meditation for hours to achieve the experience of a shift of perception - the opening of a gateway to another dimension. Our culture doesn't allow for that kind of time. Our attention has to be captured in other ways and that can be through symbols and synchronicity. Those are tools that can work even in a culture juggling time and multiple duties.
As a Licensed Counselor, my fear of ridicule held me back for many years, but the persistent messages laid in my path, and the unyielding thirst I found in my heart, were the impetus to complete and share this material. I found courage through the work and words of others, people who have remembered and awakened to their mission to help bring enlightenment to the planet, and who have chosen to make their spiritual mission their priority. Those who chose to take up the road before me motivated me to see this work through to publication. And so, with these beliefs, I stand naked before you, revealing my life-altering story in the hopes of helping you find yours.
Throughout my journey, I felt compelled to chronicle the experience. I asked for guidance; and believed angels, symbols and invisible messengers bade me forward to complete the written word. I can believe in things that are not seen, but I also need evidence to support my experiences and quell my doubts. In the pages of The Magdalene Awakening, you will discover that the evidence begins and ends with the WORD: "In the beginning there was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God" (John 1:1).
The authors of the Old and New Testaments used numerically coded messages, Gematria, to enlighten the initiated, "for those who had ears to hear" (Matthew 13:43). The Gematria of 'WORD' is 444. 444 was the first spiritual symbol to break through my consciousness. After 12 years of searching for truth, I no longer doubt.
The WORD also leads to the message of Mary Magdalene. Published in this century, the controversial yet intriguing Gospel of Mary portrays Mary Magdalene as a favored disciple – the apostle of the apostles, an 'initiated' one who was singled out by Jesus for special teachings. In Chapter 5 of this gospel, the apostles are "grieved and in considerable doubt and consternation" over their mission as described by the Savior.
Peter says to Mary, "Sister we know that the Savior loved you more than the rest of woman. Tell us the words of the Savior..."
Mary comforted them and "turned their hearts to the good" and said, "What is hidden from you I will proclaim to you." Mary proceeded to share the WORD as spoken to her by the Lord in a vision.
"The Lord said to me, 'Blessed are you that did not waver at the sight of Me. For where the mind is there is the treasure.'"
"I said to Him, 'Lord how does he who sees the vision see it, through the soul or through the spirit?'"
"The Savior answered and said, 'He does not see through the soul nor through the spirit, but the mind that is between the two, that is what sees the vision'...'"(5:1-11).
