MARY MAGDALENE and YESHUA: The Feminine Form of Meditation
Isis_(Egyptian_Museum) By Mis4930
Received by Mercedes Kirkel
Question: My understanding is that traditional meditation is a Masculine approach to finding God within, because it relies on the mind. What would be a more Feminine approach?
Mary Magdalene: It is true that the meditation practices most of you have received have been very much oriented toward the Masculine. This has worked well for many, who have a strength in the Masculine. For others of you, who are not so naturally oriented to the Masculine, this has been a challenge. Many of you have come to the place of feeling that perhaps you’re not able to meditate. Or perhaps you feel you’re not even able to practice spirituality at all, because of your difficulty with the type of practice that has been recommended.
We feel very sad about this. It is one of the consequences of the Feminine being excluded in so many domains in your world, including your spiritual domain. It has excluded many of you, and even brought many of you to conclude that you weren’t able to engage in spirituality—which is never the case. All of you are absolutely able to engage in spirituality. It has simply been that your world has not brought forth the fullest picture and has not helped you to understand how to access the path that is best for each person.
Indeed, there are pathways that are more inclusive of the Feminine. What we recommend is that each person find the practice that fits you best. Ultimately you will all have to develop your Feminine and Masculine. And ultimately, the Feminine always leads to the Masculine and the Masculine always leads to the Feminine.
If a more Masculine practice is most natural for you and that’s what you engage, that will eventually, inevitably, lead you to the Feminine. The same is true of a more Feminine practice. If it is a true spiritual practice, it will inevitably lead you to the Masculine.
However, the most direct path, and probably the most efficient path in terms of time—what you might call the speediest path—is to engage both your Masculine and your Feminine, to the degree you are able. As it is natural for you, it is helpful to engage both.
To summarize, you may choose to engage more Masculine practices, or you may choose to engage more Feminine practices, or you may choose to engage both. That being said, I would like to talk about what the more Feminine practices are.
When we use the word “meditation,” we are simply talking about focusing. It is a focusing of the mind. There is an inherent Masculine aspect to this focusing because it involves the mind. And the mind is part of your Masculine being.
Any time you are focusing on something or other, it is a form of meditation. If you choose to focus on things that are more involved in the Feminine, that will help to bring in more of the Feminine.
Some of you do this when you go out in nature and focus on your experience of the natural world. You focus on the sounds, the smells, the sights that you’re experiencing in nature. You’re focusing on your connection with nature, which is really Mother Earth and the manifestation of the Divine Feminine in your Earth realm. Focusing on that can be a form of Feminine meditation.
You could increase your connection with the Feminine if you were to lie down in nature, or rest against a tree with your spine against the tree, and really notice your own body. Your body is part of your Feminine being in manifestation. Really experiencing your body, feelings, and energy when you’re in nature is a way you can amplify your reception of the Feminine. Some of you do this naturally. That is a Feminine practice.
There are other Feminine practices that are not so much what you might call a meditation. They are ways of connecting with the Feminine that take you into your heart. The practices and teachings I gave that Mercedes recorded in the first book, Mary Magdalene Beckons, are very much about this. They are practices of making use of your emotions in a very particular way that lead you into your heart and heart space. These practices reconnect you with the Divine in a Feminine pathway. So emotions can be used as a Feminine pathway.
If you’re not sure what I’m talking about, reading the book Mary Magdalene Beckons may be a great support. Mercedes also offers a class where she helps people understand the process of letting emotions take you to God and learn the practice for doing that very deeply. We support people learning that practice.
Sexuality is another very Feminine form of connecting with the Divine. Sacred sexuality is very much a Feminine pathway for connecting with the Divine.
In all of these practices, there are both Masculine and Feminine components. For example, sacred sexuality is very much about uniting the Masculine and the Feminine, and there are many Masculine aspects to it. There is a clear consciousness practice within sacred sexuality, which is one of the Masculine aspects. But overall the practice of sacred sexuality leans towards the Feminine because it’s very much engaging your sexual energy, which is a Feminine manifestation in your world.
The same can be said of the emotional practice. Overall it’s a Feminine practice. But it has many Masculine aspects, too, including consciousness aspects and ways to use your mind to support the emotional practice. These are very balanced practices but they engage the Feminine much more strongly than many traditional spiritual practices do.
There are some traditional spiritual practices that are much more in the Feminine. For example, shamanic paths have often used Feminine pathways. An example is when they use drumming or sacred substances to transport people into higher realms. Those realms are still realms of manifestation. The experiences people have in those realms are very much experiences of the Divine Feminine. That’s an example of a spiritual practice that is based more in the Feminine. Again, it has Masculine aspects, but the practice is more oriented towards the Feminine.
There are many different paths. Again, the recommendation we suggest is find the path that is strongest for you. You will know that because it opens your heart and you feel yourself filled with love, and it opens your higher mind and you feel yourself resting in consciousness. Those are the signs that a path is supporting you.
Then there is the further practice of uniting the Masculine and Feminine—uniting your consciousness and your love. This happens naturally on its own, but it can be supported with practices, too. This is something that will be given and included as part of this body of work that is becoming the new spirituality that you’re calling “CommunionTM.” There will be practices that are very specifically oriented towards uniting the Masculine and Feminine. We will be making sure that those are clarified and available to all.

MARY MAGDALENE and YESHUA: The Miracle of Yeshua’s Manifestation
Received by Mercedes Kirkel
Mary Magdalene: I wish to honor and recognize, with my fullest heart-love and deepest gratitude, my beloved Yeshua. I am so grateful for his presence in my life and in all of manifestation, and for the blessing that he brings—which is so immense, so huge.
Yeshua’s work in manifestation was a tremendous surrendering into his spiritual calling. What he did to manifest in the third dimension, and then to teach in physical form in the way that he did, is something all of you will come to understand more and more over time. You will understand what that required and the miracle that it was. I simply wish to acknowledge that and to once again bow down in love to my beloved Yeshua, who has served all beings so incredibly, and continues to do so.

YESHUA and MARY MAGDALENE: Our Roles As Divine Masculine and Feminine
Received by Mercedes Kirkel
Yeshua: I wish to clarify something. My beloved Mary Magdalene and I often take the roles of the Divine Masculine and the Divine Feminine. It’s very natural for us to do this. It is very joyful for us to do this, even as we both are fully connected to our own Masculine and Feminine within.
Nonetheless, it is our choice and our joy to rest, oftentimes, in these positions—where I am holding the space of pure consciousness in relation to Mary, as she holds the space of manifestation in relation to me.
When we are present together, it is oftentimes most natural—for both of us—for Mary to be the one who speaks, as I rest in consciousness and send my blessing from that space. I certainly will speak if there is anything I wish to contribute or to add.
Mary has my full blessings to communicate for both of us. I am so grateful to her for her brilliance, her wisdom, and her amazing ability to communicate with all. I recognize and honor her to the highest degree for her service to all beings.

MARY MAGDALENE and YESHUA: How Ascension Will Happen
Sriyantra_By Bipzy (Own work)
Received by Mercedes Kirkel
[Note from Mercedes: This is a continuation of a communication from Mary, in which she describes the qualities of the Divine Masculine and Feminine, and how they relate to the ascension process.]
Mary Magdalene: The natural relationship of the Masculine and Feminine is a relationship of pure union.
This is the essence of reflection of Mother-Father God, because Mother-Father God are absolutely in union with each other, always. All of manifestation is actually reflecting the union of Mother-Father God, as long as your consciousness is open to it.
Our desire is to help you shift into the consciousness of understanding what this is, in very practical ways, so that you can unite your Divine Masculine and Feminine.
More than anything else, the work on your part of uniting your Divine Masculine and Feminine is going to change your life. It is also going to change your entire world and the whole Earth realm.
Everything that you do for yourself is always affecting the whole. In fact, it’s creating the whole.
This is the way this ascension process is going to happen—by all of you, one by one, doing your work and changing your consciousness. Through that, you will change your reality and manifestation to one of total union of the Masculine and the Feminine.

MARY MAGDALENE and YESHUA: What Is the Divine Feminine?
Received by Mercedes Kirkel
Mary Magdalene: The Divine Feminine is the essence of manifestation. The Divine Feminine is the vibratory energy of manifestation. It is manifestation in all its forms. This can span from the densest form, which most of you are experiencing right now as being on Earth (though there are actually even denser forms). But manifestation can span from concrete forms, such as physicality, all the way up to very subtle forms. These subtle forms could be the angelic realm, or other subtle manifestations and experiences that some of you may have had, where you have visions or you hear subtle sounds. All of that, the entire continuum, is part of manifestation.
Manifestation is a huge spectrum, from this relatively low frequency of physical manifestation up to a very high frequency of very exalted planes or dimensions, where you experience lights and sounds that oftentimes feel very blissful. Bliss is one of the qualities of the Divine Feminine, in her most exalted form is pure love.
In your world, the Divine Feminine is everything that is manifest, including your body, your emotions, and your energy. Your energy includes your sexual energy, sexuality, and sexual experiences. The Divine Feminine includes all of physicality, all of the world.
If you think about many spiritual traditions, especially in the past, many of these traditions excluded the Divine Feminine from spirituality. It wasn’t considered spiritual to be connected to your body, or to be emotional or even connected to your emotions, or to be engaging sexuality. Those things were considered the opposite of spirituality. Often the recommendation was to separate yourself from those things if you wanted to be spiritual.
We’re especially interested in addressing any vestiges of that consciousness, because that is really referring to separating from the Feminine. One of the ways the consciousness of separating from the Feminine has been used is to support people in connecting with the Divine Masculine. But we are suggesting a different path that doesn’t require negating either the Masculine or the Feminine. In fact, it requires embracing both, to the point that both can be in their natural relationship with each other, which is a relationship of pure union.

MARY MAGDALENE: What Is the Divine Masculine?
Received by Mercedes Kirkel
Mary Magdalene: Each of you have your own inner Masculine and Feminine. We’re not referring to men or women as a gender, because all men and women have their Masculine and Feminine within. We’re addressing all gendered beings, understanding that everyone has their Masculine and Feminine. You may be more in touch with one, or less in touch with the other, but you all have your Masculine and Feminine.
There is a more ordinary sense of the Masculine and Feminine that many of you are familiar with. But there is a higher form, or what you might call an exalted form. That is when you’re connecting to your sacred Masculine or Feminine, your Divine Masculine and Feminine.
The sacred Masculine, or Divine Masculine, is really the quality of pure transcendence. It’s what you might call transcendental being. It is prior to space and time. It’s prior to all manifestation. It has a kind of complete purity about it.
One way of understanding the pure quality of the Divine Masculine—which many of you have experienced—is that it’s what people seek to experience in meditation. Some people describe this state as peace, quiet, or stillness.
In various of your spiritual traditions there have been references or names given to this state, such as “the Self,” “the witness,” or “witness consciousness.” These are some of the references people are familiar with for the Divine Masculine. I’m not thinking of other names in this moment but I’m sure you are familiar with them.
The Eastern traditions, and in particular traditions such as Buddhism and Hinduism, have very much focused on this aspect of the divine (the transcendental or Divine Masculine aspect) as something to attain. Oftentimes these traditions have tried to support people in connecting with the Divine Masculine by suggesting that people only connect with the Divine Masculine, and not connect with the Divine Feminine. We’re suggesting something different. Nonetheless, these traditions have been a great support for people in connecting with the quality of the Divine Masculine and reaching the transcendent.

MARY MAGDALENE: The Necessity Of Uniting The Masculine And Feminine For Ascension
Image courtesy of www.karnuaarts.com
Received by Mercedes Kirkel
Question: Why is uniting the Masculine and Feminine important?
Mary Magdalene: We have spoken about this a great deal in the past. Yet we know that this is something that is new for many people and there may be people who have not heard what we have said in the past. So we are happy to explain, as best we can, in a way that will work for all.
The first thing to understand is that uniting the Masculine and Feminine takes place on so many levels. When we talk about the union of the Masculine and Feminine, we’re talking about a very multi-level, multi-dimensional process. First and foremost, we’re talking about receiving the divine in its fullest form. We’re talking about relating to the divine—and to God as a name for the divine—as both Masculine and Feminine, completely in union with each other.
This is very familiar to some of you. To some of you it is less familiar. One example in your world is the yin-yang symbol, which conveys the idea that everything is the union of Masculine and Feminine. This includes everything in manifestation, and everything in the higher dimensions, all the way up to the pure expression of the divine in its source form. Everything is the Masculine and the Feminine.
Yet for a very, very long period of time there has been a bias in your world toward the Masculine and a suppression of the Feminine, such that many of you, without even realizing it, are tending to be imbalanced.
For the most part, you who are incarnating on the Earth at this time are tending to be more oriented towards the Masculine, both outside of yourself and within yourself. And you are tending to be less connected to the Feminine.
Even among those of you who think you are connected to the Feminine, oftentimes there are ways that your programming has affected you. You may not even realize it, yet you are still coming from a more Masculine orientation.
Part of our work at this time is to help people understand how you are still being affected by this program that has been running on the Earth for so long of obscuring the Feminine and presenting things in a predominantly Masculine way. For example, in your spirituality many of you have been taught to relate to God in a Masculine way, such that you hear the word “God” as meaning Masculine, which it does not. It means the Masculine and Feminine divine. Of course it is just a word and everyone relates to words differently. Most likely when you hear that word it will bring up whatever your programming is. If you have been programmed to relate to God as Masculine, then when you hear the word “God,” you will very likely think of a Masculine being.
In fact, God is neither Masculine nor Feminine. It is also true that God is completely Masculine and completely Feminine. All of those are true and there is no conflict between any of them. As you evolve in your spiritual consciousness, this will become more and more clear, and more and more simple to all of you. Depending on each individual and their process, this may now be more or less clear, more or less simple or complex. We hope to help you with this understanding because this is a very important part of the ascension process.
When we talk about the ascension process, we’re talking about a grand transition that beings on Earth and the Earth itself are in the process of right now. This process involves moving into the higher dimensions, beginning with the fourth dimension. Part of what is going to allow all of you to make this transition is through uniting the Masculine and Feminine. You might say it is a prerequisite.
Another way to look at it is that accomplishing the uniting of the Masculine and Feminine is your gateway for this transition to the fourth dimension. And first and foremost, this uniting happens within each one of you. That is the most important place for this union to happen.

What Did Mary Magdalene Look Like?
By Mercedes Kirkel
This week I found something intriguing on the internet. I learned that some Brazilian scientists are using 3D imaging technology to reconstruct the faces of various saints. Based on that, they’re producing life-size busts of what they believe the individuals actually looked like.
One of the people they’ve done this with is Mary Magdalene.
Working from a preserved skull that’s kept in a church in Saint-Maximin-la-Sainte-Baume in southern France—claimed to be the skull of Mary Magdalene—they eventually came up with this image of Mary:
Image by Cicero Moraes (Own work)
What I was first struck by in seeing this image was how close it was to the picture of Mary that’s on the front cover of MARY MAGDALENE BECKONS. Mary personally guided me in the creation of that cover image. Here’s a comparison of the two:
Mary Magdalene Beckons © Mercedes Kirkel
Image by Cicero Moraes (Own work)
Beyond that, I really liked how the image the Brazilian scientists came up with had dark skin and hair, as I think this is probably accurate. I believe Mary very likely came from Egypt, and perhaps was a descendant of the Queen of Sheba, who came from Egypt/Ethiopia. Since coming to believe this, I’ve wished that the image of Mary on MARY MAGDALENE BECKONS had darker skin. But Mary didn’t guide me to that. Perhaps she thought having dark hair and eyes was enough, as even that is a great stretch for many people.
What I do know is that Mary has cautioned against getting caught up in the external details of her life in the past. She views that as a distraction from her actual work and gift to us as spiritual teacher and guide.
Why is it that so many of us want to know the human details surrounding Yeshua (Jesus) and Mary’s lives? What will knowing those “facts” really give us? How much does it actually matter what color their hair or skin was? Where they were from? Whether they were married or had sex? How many children they had? And on and on…
What all that really tells us about is ourselves. If we’re drawn to those parts of their lives, they’re likely reflecting aspects of ourselves and our world that we’re not yet at peace with.
Are we at peace with a God-man loving a woman? Being sexual? Having a family? Are we at peace with a Goddess-woman being equal to a God-Man? With her having dark skin and coming from Africa? What does that say about us?
Mary’s focus with me has always been upon our spiritual growth. She has always shone her light on all of us rather than herself. This seems completely consistent with what I understand about what she and Yeshua did during their incarnation two thousand years ago. Their interest was in helping the people of that time grow spiritually. They didn’t talk about themselves and their background. That’s why we know so little about them. They spoke about us and our relationship to God.
My interactions with Mary have been just the same. She has endless passion for God and for helping us realize the same depth of connection with God that she lives and radiates. When I’m in her presence, that’s what I feel, very powerfully. I’m transported into her exceedingly blissful state, and any questions about who she was or other mundane aspects of life melt away. I’m blessed to regularly experience this and I find it to be tremendously satisfying.
Am I still curious about what she looked like and where she came from? Yes. I see that as a natural part of being incarnated in human form, to be interested in the details and lives of other incarnated beings, especially those you have a profound relationship with. But I’m also aware that these “details” and “stories” aren’t the real substance of my relationship with Mary. For me, it’s the help she brings to me and so many others—through her profound wisdom and the transmission of her state. That’s the real gold, the gem inside the wrapper, regardless of the form the “wrapper” takes.
My recommendation is: Enjoy the wrapper, but don’t mistake it for the gem inside.

MARY MAGDALENE: The Purpose of Kundalini Experiences
Image by Nico36~commonswiki
Received by Mercedes Kirkel
Question: I’m not sure how to use kundalini energy.
Mary Magdalene: A kundalini experience can be a taste, a window…
Questioner: Is it good to experience it?
Mary Magdalene: I cannot say without going into greater depth with you about your particular experience.
There is a certain danger in becoming enamored of experience. It’s like chasing a false god—wanting to have the experience again or thinking this is “the way” to have that experience.
In general, kundalini experiences are purifications. It’s a sign of something being purified in you. The purification may be allowing something in you to open up.
Be gentle. Be careful. Do not invoke more purification than is supportive of you.
Questioner: Thank you. I understand.
Mary Magdalene: I love you all so very much. I feel waves of love moving through my heart, tears coming, it is so powerful. This is a great gift that we all share. Thank you for sharing this with me.
I call forth all the blessings for each and all that will serve your path, your growth, your hearts, your union with God. So may it be.
In love, I AM Mary Magdalene.

MARY MAGDALENE: Kundalini and Energy-Body Mastery

Received by Mercedes Kirkel
Question: I recently experienced a kundalini awakening but I don’t really know what it’s for. Could you please talk a little bit about that?
Mary Magdalene: Yes. The kundalini is a very important part of your energy system. This is part of what the training was in the mystery schools—the development of the full energy body and system, including the kundalini.
Ultimately the kundalini is for carrying you into higher dimensions and opening up higher centers within yourself that are going to be required as you move into those higher dimensions.
Sometimes the kundalini is activated spontaneously. Oftentimes when that happens it is not a full activation; it is a partial activation. A partial activation can happen when the structures or vessel for the kundalini are not fully prepared. This is why there can be effects that can be challenging from a spontaneous kundalini awakening, such as confusion or disorientation.
It is valuable to have a guide or teacher for this kind of process.
Question: Mary, when you speak of effects of kundalini in a temple that’s not yet ready, are there specific things we see manifested?
Mary Magdalene: Illness; problems with the nervous system being too activated; or a feeling of being burned out. Your systems may become out of synch such that it’s hard to sleep or you don’t know what to eat. The things you used to eat don’t seem to work anymore; you can’t find the right foods; your connection to the physical and nurturance through your food gets out of synch with your energy body.
There can be confusion. There can be an opening of the mind, the mental centers, in ways that perhaps you don’t understand, or that might even seem scary, or just confusing, and you’re not sure how to integrate them.
There can be effects such as ringing in the ears, balance problems, many things.
I hate to sound like a broken record, but the vessel for supporting the kundalini is created through the development of your emotional body. The emotional body is extremely aligned to your energy body—the foundation of the energy body is in the emotional body. This is another major reason why emotional development is so important for you. It’s necessary so you can be prepared to activate your energy body, and thus shift from the physical into the energy body. This is why I emphasize the emotional and energetic work.
The energetic work is bigger than sacred sexuality, but sacred sexuality is a valuable part of it. This does not require that you be practicing with a partner. You all are sexual beings with sexual energy. Making use of your sexual energy for spiritual growth is very valuable.
But the energetic work is bigger than that. It has to do with the heart. It has to do with the center of the brain—the pineal chakra, pineal gland, and the third eye. The activation and alignment of all these parts allows you to ultimately be able to activate your Merkaba. Your Merkaba is for your safety, protection, ease, and help as you move into the higher dimensions.
There is a progression for all of this that is safe, gentle, and dependable. This is what I recommend to people. It begins with the development and the mastery of the physical body and the emotions. From there you are ready to begin the next level of the energetic progression and ultimately the energetic mastery at your level.
Is what I have offered helpful?
Questioner: Yes.
Will there be a time when we know that we’re ready for the next level, physically and in our heart space?
Mary Magdalene: You will know in the heart space. If you are not able to enter into the heart space it is a sign that there is more preparatory work to do. When you are able to enter into the heart space and specifically to open what Mercedes has been referencing as the “inner temple of the heart,” this is the gateway. This is part of the safety that is built in. You will not be able to pass through that gateway until the preparation is complete.
This is something that Mercedes can help you with. She has great mastery and great ability in helping others with this. She understands this. We have asked her to be one who supports others in completing this and traversing this passageway.
