Question: How would Yeshua and Mary Magdalene wish that we would continue the work in the time we find ourselves in?

Mary Magdalene: Time is not an issue for us.

The work is always the same. It is the work of love. Yet at different times that shows up and manifests in different ways.

There is a particular way that the work of love is manifesting at this particular time. It has especially to do with the love between the Masculine and the Feminine. This is the great healing in your world at this time.

Many have been aware that this is a time of the Feminine becoming stronger and moving more into the forefront, even taking a kind of a leadership role. This is true, but it is far from the whole picture.

The Feminine path is always the path of love. Many at this time have a misunderstanding about the role of the Feminine becoming strong. They are confusing the Feminine and the Masculine. They envision the Feminine becoming strong in a way that is more of a Masculine way. But this is not what is being called for. It is not what has been empowered for this time.

What has been empowered is for the Feminine to become strong, so that she may become strong in her loving, and in particular her loving of the Masculine. That love will heal the Masculine and allow the Masculine to open in love to the Feminine. This is the great gateway or doorway that human beings are moving into and through altogether at this time. It requires this uniting of the Masculine and Feminine.

This is much more than just having a love relationship with a partner—although that is obviously a most wonderful thing and a most wonderful form of blessing and practice for yourself and for all beings. But that is only a part of the picture. The bigger picture is this love within your selves of the Masculine and Feminine.

For many, there is still a great deal of work to do relative to loving the Feminine—loving your bodies, loving your sexuality, loving your emotions, and really embracing these fully to receive their gifts. Many people have used these aspects of their being in certain ways, but not necessarily for the highest ways.

Your body is a temple. It is to be used and cared for as a temple. It is a temple of God. It is ultimately your manifestation of God. As with all temples, each one is unique and each one is perfect in its own way.

Your sexuality is a practice for transformation. It is a practice for bringing forth new life, new light into the world. It is also a practice for transforming your life and ultimately your world. That is the function of sexuality, which has barely been understood by most people. It does not even require a partner to engage that. All have sexual energy. It is the life force within. It can always be used for transformation.

Your emotions are one of the greatest gifts for powerful, deep connection to God. Most of you do not understand this relative to the painful emotions. Most of you carry great fear relative to the painful emotions. That is ultimately fear of the Feminine.

There is great healing to do for your relationship to your body, sexuality, and emotions to become strong and full, and to become a manifestation of your love of the Feminine within yourself, for both men and women. Women will most likely lead the way in these arenas—in love of the body, sexuality, and emotions. Through that they become the vessel of love that lights up the Masculine.

This is what will bring your world out of the place it is now—a place of tremendous darkness in many ways. It is the darkness of the Masculine not accompanied by the Feminine, the darkness of the mind realms lost and adrift from the heart. The uniting of the Masculine and Feminine through the Feminine’s love will change that, through the energy of the Feminine drawing the Masculine into a state of love and union.

The Masculine also brings gifts. More than anything else, the Masculine brings the gift of consciousness, the light of consciousness, which the Feminine so needs, always.

This is the most beautiful union, of which I know a great deal, and which I have had the great joy to experience in its fullness. This is your destiny, what is before all of you. This is what you are moving into and what you are here to share with the world, as well.

It is a magnificent time. Do not be fooled by the media. Do not be fooled by the bad news. There are many forces trying to hold back the gates of change. They will not be successful. Do not let them be successful within your own mind and heart. Your love is much stronger and that is what will prevail.

Does this answer your question?

Questioner: Oh yes. Thank you.

Question: Can you talk about the Feminine energy of fullness? Like being full?

Mary Magdalene: Most definitely, this is one of the essential forms of the Feminine. The Masculine is emptiness; the Feminine is fullness.

You have spiritual traditions in your world where emptiness is espoused as the path. An example of this is Zen Buddhism. Even in the forms of meditation practice that most people have learned, the practice is to empty oneself, to clear oneself, to clear the mind, to clear your thoughts, to clear whatever’s arising, and to find God through that. So meditation is viewed as a process of emptying. This is a Masculine orientation.

The Masculine orientation is an effective process for reaching the Masculine aspect of God. This is the aspect of God that most spiritual teachers have told you is “the way.” It is one approach.

The Feminine is most definitely about fullness. In some of your older cultures that were very Feminine-based, you would see images of the Feminine with huge bellies, very round and full, because that was the force of life and birth. A woman who is pregnant and about to give birth is the icon of the Feminine in fullness. You have images of the Feminine as your Earth in its fullness. Truly, all of manifestation is the Feminine.

The Feminine and the Masculine are two faces of God. The Masculine is what is beyond manifestation, beyond form and incarnation. It is what transcends, what goes beyond. You have the Buddhist teaching of “gate, gate, para gate, parasam gate, bodhi svaha,” which translates as “Beyond, beyond. Beyond the beyond. Hail the goer.” This is a reference to going beyond form to the transcendent, which is without form. This can be seen as emptiness.

What is form? Form is the Feminine. All of manifestation and physicality is one way that manifestation occurs. But there are many other ways. Your thoughts, your feelings, your energy—you experience lots of different kinds of manifestation.

Each being is a universe of fullness unto themself. Then you have all your beings, just in this world. Then there are worlds upon worlds upon worlds, just in the physical. Then there are dimensions upon dimensions upon dimensions. This is the great arena of the Feminine of all form, all arising—from the most dense form (some say denser than physicality) to the most light-based forms of light beings, angels, subtle sounds, lights. All of that is the Feminine. It is the tremendous fullness.

And the Feminine is in union with the Masculine.

These are the two paths that most beings in your world have known. The path of the Masculine is the path of transcendence—going beyond form, going beyond the Feminine—to know God. The path of the Feminine is the path of knowing God as all forms—every aspect of manifestation, all of it is God. Both paths lead to God.

The most direct path, for most people, is the path of union. It is the path of embracing all form, manifestation, and arising as God, and simultaneously knowing that God is beyond all of it. You can say it is a dream or an illusion, and it is also God. It is both.

This knowingness of the union of these two seeming opposites is a path of realization. It is not something to be believed or thought into reality. It is to be known and realized.

For most beings, there are stages of embracing the Masculine. This is why people do practices such as meditation, because it is valuable to develop one’s Masculine and to more and more connect with the transcendental aspect of God, which goes beyond all form.

It is also valuable to know the Feminine as God. That begins with knowing yourself as God—knowing your body, your energy, your sexuality, your emotions, as God.

This ultimately leads to the essence of the union of the Masculine and Feminine, which is the union of Divine Masculine as consciousness, which has no form, and Divine Feminine as love, which is embracing EVERYTHING that is. This union of love and consciousness is the highest form of knowingness of God.

Is that helpful?

Questioner: Wow, that was so…thank you!

Question: I’ve spent a couple of years not being able to forgive the separation that’s happened with my son. I keep wanting to talk things over in order to heal them and it doesn’t work. Then I find myself with a grudge that I have to suck it up and go on, and I haven’t released it.

In the larger sphere, I want to take steps to make a difference in the world, yet let go and let myself be used for whatever purpose it is that I’m being used for. I want hope of making a difference, healing, or forgiveness, while not being trapped by reactivity to what I see in the world that is really out of balance.

Mary Magdalene: Most of what people think of as forgiveness is not an effective process. It is, again, the Masculine separated from the Feminine.

You have been given teachings of forgiveness that are not whole. They are partial. Many people have the idea that forgiveness is to love the other being. There is truth in that, but it is not the whole truth.

The outcome of forgiveness is to love the other being. But this is not the process of forgiveness. Love is what you get to through forgiveness.

You must begin with the Feminine. This is what most people don’t understand.

Most people who are contemplating forgiveness are aware that they are in pain. They are using forgiveness as both a way to alleviate their own pain and also to move into what they hope is a spiritual process with the other parties are involved.

You must begin with the Feminine. You must always begin with the Feminine. This is one of the great truths that most people do not understand. The Feminine leads to the Masculine. The Feminine loves the Masculine. And the Feminine always leads to the Masculine.

If you start with the Masculine, you are starting with the ending. This does not tend to get you to the Feminine. The Masculine has a different purpose. The Masculine guides the Feminine.

It does not work to begin with the Masculine. It works to begin with the Feminine. Of course, I am speaking to the archetypal Masculine and Feminine that lives within all beings. I am not talking about men and women. I am talking about Masculine-Feminine.

Relative to forgiveness, you begin with the Feminine. You begin with your pain. The grieving process is to feel your pain. But do not stop there. If all you do is feel your pain, it will likely be a very long process of being immersed in pain. If you are willing to go all the way through the feeling of the pain—which for many people is very hard—this will eventually lead you through. But there are much easier processes for doing this work through the Feminine.

You are in pain because something in you has gotten disconnected from your inner divinity. It is not because of what the other person has done. Your pain is not because anyone else did something to you. You were affected by what someone else did and that effect caused you to disconnect from your own divinity.

The feelings you have are telling you that you have become disconnected from your inner divinity. You must use those feelings to find out what part of your inner divine nature you have lost touch with and then reconnect with that part. When you do that, you will heal yourself.

The healing does not come from others. The healing comes from you reconnecting with God. Anytime you are lost in wounding of some sort or other—whether it is grief, anger, resentment, blame—you are fundamentally at war with yourself. That is where the healing must occur.

For example, if you have been in a love relationship that has ended and you are still suffering from that relationship ending, if you still feel grief or blame or whatever about it, those feelings are your help. They are guiding you to the place within yourself where you have lost your connection to God.

If it’s a love relationship, then it’s often in the domain of love where you have lost your connection to God. Love is one of the God-qualities that lives within you. Whatever the outer events were that occurred, you got disconnected from your own connection to love. You got disconnected from the God-quality of love that lives within you, your well of love, your own access to love, the bridge that unites you with God through this particular aspect of yourself—love.

I’m just giving this as an example, but an example that is real for many people in their lives.

Your work is to find the place where you have gotten cut off from love and reconnect. Reconnect with your own knowingness of love. You cannot mourn something that you do not know within yourself. If you are mourning or grieving or in anger, it is a sign that you know this place within yourself and you are missing it. You know what it’s like to have that particular God-quality fulfilled. Go to that place where you know what it is to have that God-quality. Reconnect there and then the healing will begin.

If it is a very deep wound with someone you are very close to—a son, or someone else in your life that you are very close to—this will not happen instantly. It will take time. You will need to come back to this and reconnect over time. You will need to find your God-source within, in the particular form that you disconnected from. Eventually you will be fed again through that particular source or stream. Then love will come alive again within you.

It is at that point where you can turn to the other, not before. When love comes alive in you, then you can turn to the other. When you turn to the other, it is to ask the same question for them. What was motivating them? What part of their inner divinity were they trying to support through the actions that they took? What beautiful God-part of themselves were they doing their best to fulfill, even if it was not in the way you would have liked or you would have chosen. But in their divinity they were doing their best, even perhaps desperately, to stay connected to some part of them that they so needed.

When you find that in the other, on the basis of your own reconnection and strength, then the forgiveness will happen. That is the process.

Questioner: I hear you.

In terms of the world and what appears to be a lack of sanity in our political behavior with each other, are we to just remember that everybody is just trying to fulfill that?

Mary Magdalene: No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no! The pain is in you. Go to your pain. Go to your source. When you call the world insane, you are saying that it is wrong. You are locked into the third-dimensional model of right and wrong. Go beyond that into your pain. Then you have reentered the domain of the Feminine.

What you’re really saying is, “Ouch, I hurt! I want compassion. I want love. I want spiritual communion carried out in everyday actions.” Yes?

Questioner: Yes!

Mary Magdalene: Your pain is that you have gotten disconnected within yourself to those wells of God-ness within yourself.

You must begin by getting out of your right-and-wrong thinking of who’s insane and who’s sane. Bring it back to you and your connection to God. “Oh yes, I want compassion. I want love. I want spirituality lived in practical life, moment-to-moment guiding our decisions as individuals and a culture.” That’s it. At that point your light of consciousness has found the disconnection in you, and your consciousness is already repairing it.

Then if you want to take it into forgiveness, do so on the basis of asking “What is the beautiful God-part that these people are trying to support in themselves?” These beings that you’re calling insane, there is some great beauty that they are trying to support. Find out what that is. Then your God-self and their God-self can meet. Then you can transform anything.

Questioner: So it’s the remembering of the root.

Mary Magdalene: Always. Thank you.

Questioner: Thank you

Question: I’ve been thinking of the story of Adam and Eve and I wanted to hear your version.

Mary Magdalene: There is a very great deal behind this story [laughter]. It is one of the messages I have given for the next book. Can you be more specific as to what are your questions?

Questioner: The story that I learned as a child doesn’t appeal to me and doesn’t seem correct. I don’t think there is anything wrong with taking the fruit of our beautiful world, enjoying that, and finding pleasure. So I was wondering what that mythology really means. How does it speak to us about the truth of who we are?

Mary Magdalene: There are so many levels to this.

It is indeed a mythology that was put forth. Yet there were also pearls. There were secrets encoded in it as well.

It seems you want reassurance that your understanding you have come to relative to this is accurate, on the path, and supporting you. Is this your question?

Questioner: My question really was to hear the truth of what the story means, because when I hear it in this one-dimensional way it doesn’t seem like it makes any sense.

Mary Magdalene: It makes a great deal of sense if you want to suppress people, control them, and convince them that they are bad.

Questioner: But what are the pearls from that story?

Mary Magdalene: The first pearl was about the serpent, which was the serpent power of kundalini. And the tree of life was the spine. It was about the process of ascending and moving into the higher dimensions. It was talking about the essentialness of the Masculine and Feminine being in union. The apple represents the Feminine. The apple is a symbol of the Feminine in many traditions. So it was the knowing, the embodying, the taking in of the Feminine.

Just as Eve was said to have been created to partner with Adam—that it was not enough to only have a man, it also required a woman—as well, it required the union of the Masculine and Feminine. This was the next instruction as to what to do with this.

It was all about awakening what is called kundalini in the Indian tradition. In the Egyptian lineage, we called it sekhem. This awakening was known in many ancient traditions. It was known in the temples. It was part of the mystery schools, which came out of what had developed in the temples.

All this was twisted and turned, as a means of suppression and control. You had the knowingness within yourself to say “No, this is not accurate.” But there was instruction being given, ultimately about moving into the higher dimensions, with the fourth dimension being the next dimension. This is what was practiced in the mystery schools.

For those who are ready and available for it, this is what is awakening at this time. Many who are incarnated at this time have this remembrance. Many have come back to be here at this time who were part of the mystery schools, who received this training, this consciousness, this awareness, this understanding. So many, and very likely yourself, are remembering.

But when you incarnate in this world, the veils close and the memory largely goes away, until you are spiritually developed. Or perhaps you have gifts that remained with you of being able to open the veils and remember, to understand the help that is being given.

So yes, there were most definitely great gifts in that story.

It is similar with your Bible. Much of it has been changed to a different interpretation, yet there are still gifts within it.

Is that helpful?

Questioner: Yes. Thank you.

Mary Magdalene: You are welcome.

Question: I would like to hear you share about the energy of shame, how to open ourselves to looking at shame, without punishing ourselves for it or the things we want in life.

Mary Magdalene: Can you share more specifically what the source of the shame is that you’re asking about?

Questioner: I’ve had a long journey to explore shame in myself, especially as a woman, because women have been so held back from saying what we see, hear, or feel. It keeps us from living our lives fully and feeling what we have to birth in our hearts.

Mary Magdalene: That is the purpose of shame. Shame was cultivated to remove people from their power. It’s a technique of control, through convincing people they are bad, wrong, sinful, evil, or whatever the variation is. A hallmark of the third dimension is thinking that there is such a thing as right or wrong, good or bad.

Power and control is also a hallmark of the third dimension. It is what most souls have come here to explore. Power and control are the arena of this exploration. Good and bad are the methods of playing in that arena, by attempting to create power for some and take power away from others. This is one of the power games your world tends to be consumed with.

Shame is a part of that. Shame is a particular segment of the much-larger thinking and programming that says that there is such a thing as right or wrong. If there were no such thing as right or wrong, you wouldn’t feel shame.

Questioner: It feels like it goes into a place of polarization, taking us out of feeling our heart and having compassion and acceptance for our situation and our challenges. I want the clarity to not get into “I’m right and they’re wrong,” in moving out of shame.

Mary Magdalene: The greater practice is to go beyond right and wrong all together. In that process, healing shame is so important.

There are different arenas that most people tend to have shame. The first one is body shame. Most people in your world, especially in the United States, have great shame around their body. They don’t like their body, it’s not acceptable, and especially it’s not lovable. Most people have very specific ideas of what they would have to have to be lovable in their body—and they don’t qualify. Their body doesn’t match whatever that criteria is. This is a huge arena that needs healing for people and it is spiritual. It is a spiritual imperative that this healing be done relative to body shame.

Most people have shame relative to their sexuality. They feel it’s evil, sinful. They feel that they shouldn’t be involved with it, especially if they want to be spiritual or somehow more evolved or elevated. But even people who aren’t specifically interested in spirituality or religion tend to carry the general cultural message that sex is bad. On the other hand, sex is attractive. Sex is something people want and that they have a lot of attention and energy for. But there’s a secret quality to it, because they believe it is really bad.

People have shame relative to their emotions. Men have shame if they feel fear or sadness. Many men receive the message that they’re not a real man, or a real boy if they’re still young, if they show fear or sadness. Women often have shame about anger. There’s great healing to be done in these areas.

These are the Feminine arenas that have been identified as wrong, bad, unacceptable—your body, sexuality, and emotions. The Feminine arena is also where your power comes from. The mind does not have power. Your power comes from your Feminine.

There are other kinds of shame, where people have a sense at their core that there’s something the matter with them: “I’m just not OK. Everyone else is OK, but I’m different. I’m defective. I’m deficient.” Then they have ideas and beliefs that seem to back that up. This is extremely debilitating.

The healing work of all of shame is essential and most important. But as I said earlier, the real healing is the healing of the very idea that it is possible to be wrong; that it’s possible to be bad. That is the greatest healing you can bring, because this is what really binds and enslaves people. It is the very idea that “badness” or “wrongness” exist. This is what people’s true liberation will be.

I am not suggesting that people therefore take any action within the realm of possibilities. All actions have consequences. Some actions support love and light and some actions do not. The discernment is: Does this action support love and light or does it interfere with love and light? Not because the being or the action is inherently bad. All beings are on the path of incarnating love and light. The discernment is simply whether a particular action is moving you forward on your path of light and love or holding you back. That is all.

So that is the healing that is called for.
