Question: I have a question about suffering and love. Sometimes people and situations that we love and care about are dying, in different ways. I have a sense that people can heal and change and transform. But sometimes you don’t know what those who are suffering are choosing, and often it’s really hard to watch them. What can we do in those encounters and relationships? On one level, everything is impermanent. On another, more subtle level, everything is ongoing. But we’re very attached to physicality somehow.

Mary Magdalene: This is the great challenge of this dimension. This dimension is a heartbreaking place.

If you have the idea that part of your purpose is to change the suffering of others, you will suffer.

Questioner: What about the nature of joy and happiness?

Mary Magdalene: That is a great gift of God. And so is heartbreak. Your work is to find God in the totality.

Questioner: We see horrifying things and it’s hard to understand why these things are necessary. Why must things be so brutal for us to awaken?

Mary Magdalene: It is not necessary for things to be so brutal to awaken.

There have been choices made. There are some who have incarnated in the third dimension because they wanted a level of exploration, without realizing the ramifications of that exploration. Suffering in your realm has taken on a life of its own, which was not originally intended.

There is a way out and many are on this path. But it does not mean that suffering will disappear overnight. There is karma in this realm—not simply individual karma. There is humanity’s karma. Many who are suffering have come because they are helping with humanity’s karma.

It is complex; it is not simple. It is true that you cannot understand another’s soul path.

And this is not forever, though it feels like it for now. There will be a time, in the not too distant future, when this kind of suffering will not be your experience, will not be necessary for growth, when this exploration will have come to a completion. Truly you are in the final phases.

Questioner: That’s why so many of us have incarnated at this time, either to help or to grow. I think many of the children that are incarnating have come with very special energies.

Mary Magdalene: Absolutely.

Questioner: They are bringing in something that’s really helping this path. Those of us who are older have more karma.

Mary Magdalene: You had different roles. It was a different time. You are doing a different aspect of the work. Be grateful; enjoy.

Questioner: I’m grateful to the children of all ages.

Mary Magdalene: Yes.

Questioner: And the babies who are coming in, some of these are incredible lights. It’s just remarkable.

Mary Magdalene: This is your future (she laughs), in many ways (she laughs again).

Questioner: Thank you so much.

Question: Mary, can you speak about ways we can bring sacredness into the activities and moments of our daily life?

Mary Magdalene: Are there any areas in particular that you struggle with?

Questioner: I do things to take care of myself in my life, like earning money. But it takes time and energy to do those things throughout the day. Where is there time left for more healing or sacred work?

Mary Magdalene: Ultimately, the sacred is whatever connects you to God.

Hopefully, you’re engaging in daily practices that are helping you to connect to God.

In your daily life, there can be spaces of time where you get drawn into functioning in various ways and forget about your connection to God. There can be many reasons for that.

One of the biggest reasons, in the third dimension, is fear. This fear can be at a very subtle level, so many people aren’t aware that they have fear.

You may have fear that you won’t survive and that you have to do certain things to survive. While it’s obvious that some things seem more like survival type things, such as eating or having shelter, ultimately many of the things you do in the third dimension are survival activities. Work is a big one, but there are also other, subtler forms of survival. For example, one aspect of your survival might involve feeding your social needs, your needs for love and closeness in your life. Those are forms of survival, too.

The avenue that will help you in responding to your fear relative to survival is becoming connected to your Divine Feminine. This was the teaching that was brought forth in the set of messages in Mary Magdalene Beckons. That teaching was about connecting to your body, sexuality, and emotions. Initially you begin by becoming aware that you’re having emotions, including that you’re having this subtle fear. You become aware that your fear that is taking you away from your God communion that you experience in your practices. I’m assuming that you do experience a sense of God communion in your practices. Is that accurate?

Questioner: Yes, I experience that sometimes. It’s like little flashes and then it fades. It’s not a constant. I greatly desire the awareness of being in and of God, not so separate. I know that separateness is false.

Mary Magdalene: It is not enough to know it. It must be penetrated. The avenue of penetration is experience, especially experience through the Feminine—through your emotions, your feelings, and your body.

You will start to become more tuned in to what you experience in those times of God communion. You will become more tuned into what you experience at times when you have forgotten or have become, you might say, unconscious for a period of time. You will start to realize that something else was going on during those times you fell out of God communion. That something else is basically fear.

It is fear that’s the source of your separation. It is fear that separates you from your body. It is fear that separates you from your emotions. It is fear that separates you from your energy body, which most people have some experience of in those times of God communion. You must be willing to open to the fear.

The idea of opening to fear brings up more fear for most people, but that is the path. The fear of fear is much worse than the fear, as one of your leaders said. There is great wisdom in that. There is a passage through that.

Most people at this time, especially in the developed Western world, are very disconnected from their emotions, the two primary ones being sadness and fear. Opening to your fear is the journey. It is what you might call a heroine’s journey. It is a journey of opening yourself to what is and finding God through that passage.

I have tried to help with this process through the teaching I have given, especially in Mary Magdalene Beckons. You may need support in coming to understand what that is. Many people do, because many are so disconnected at this time.

The other thing that will help you greatly is to develop your energy body and your energy pathways. The energy pathways work in a different way and they will support you. You can undermine them with your thinking mind, with fear and worry. But they will tend to be more sustaining of your connection to the divine. As you develop those pathways, they will increasingly give you a platform for sustaining your God connection for longer periods of time.

Simultaneously, the emotions will allow you to go deeper and deeper into your connection with the divine, and deeper into releasing what blocks you. So your emotions and your energy body work in tandem.

These are the things that will be most supportive for most people in making this shift that so many long for, so many sense, so many can almost taste. Yet there is frustration that there still seems to be separation from it. It is a good sign that you feel this frustration. Allow the frustration, too. It is a sign that you are getting closer. There is movement, there is growth and opening, and you and many are getting more and more close.

It is a practice, a spiritual practice. It can be very supportive to find others who you connect with and resonate with, and with whom you feel their spiritual practice though their presence, their communications, and their actions. This can help you stay connected. This is the wisdom of spiritual community. The whole serves as a reminder and a support to all the individuals. When one person is struggling, there are others who are in their strength and can help.

Spiritual community is a great boon. It is what many find in churches. It is unfortunate that churches tend to be isolated to one day a week. But it does not need to be that way. In the past it was certainly not that way in many circumstances.

Find your spiritual friends, your spiritual support system. This can include your guides. It can include all those who help you on all levels. Make use of this help as much as you are able.

The other thing is to not be concerned. Concern is a great impediment to spiritual practice. Remember to have fun. Remember to be joyful. Remember to allow the process, which is allowing and trusting God. It may be very different than the way it appears when you look and tend to judge. It may be very, very different. Make space for that as well.

Questioner: Thank you.

Mary Magdalene: You are welcome.

Question: Mary, I have a question about reincarnation. These lifetimes here seem so long and exhausting. But I sometimes I wonder if in heaven-time, or on the other side, if what feels like a lifetime here is really just a classroom exercise, and that we all reconvene again and see how we did. Then we come back. So I just want to hear more about reincarnation. Also, in our dreams, are we sometimes reconvening with other souls?

I ask all this because my beloved mother passed away two years ago. I miss her and want to know how to still feel her and know that she’s there.

Mary Magdalene: Do you have connection with your mother in your dreams?

Questioner: Yes. She was ill for eight years with Alzheimer’s. I chose to believe that she was very much there. In the end I had my confirmation that we stayed very connected, and I had some signs of her after she passed away. But I haven’t felt that in a while and I miss her. I wonder how far away we are from each other? Is she off on some other journey and now I have to wait two hundred years to see her again? Or are we possibly still connected somehow? How does it all work?

Mary Magdalene: How could you not be connected?

Questioner: Well, I like to think we are.

Mary Magdalene: Your concept of time is limited. She is not separated from you, even if she is incarnating again, which is unlikely, but possible. Even so, it is not a linear progression the way that you might be thinking of it.

You are absolutely connected. Otherwise you would not feel the love, you would not miss the person the way that you do. And dreams are certainly one of the more available portals for crossing through the dimensions and reconnecting with souls.

These ones who you love in this lifetime so strongly, they are your soul family. You have been with them again, and again, and again, and again. It’s most definitely not going to stop at this lifetime. (She laughs.)

When you transition, your soul family will be there to help you. Part of the great challenge of the third dimension is that you do not remember this. You do not know it consciously. But it is absolutely the case. And your heart knows it. The path is to trust your heart as much as you are able.

Questioner: Thank you.

Mary Magdalene: You are welcome.

Question: In this little room there are a couple of handfuls of people. Metaphorically there are a sea of people flowing by outside this room. You have messages that this whole sea of people need. How do you get the people to show up for the message?

Mary Magdalene: Through your transformation! (She laughs.)

It is the principle of attraction. You who are here are pioneers. You are the ones who have held the light and love through many incarnations, and continue to do so. This is a special time when many more are becoming available and are opening. This will continue to be so.

These others will be attracted in different ways. They will not necessarily come in the ways that you have. They will not necessarily respond to Mary Magdalene, or a particular being, or a gathering, or a book, or a teaching. They will come because they will feel the change in you. Someone who knows you will see how you are changing and will be moved by that. This is the way it will happen.

It seems like so few who are currently responding and so many who are not, but the world is smaller than you tend to think. You have many, many connections—not just the ones you are aware of or the ones who you are physically connected to. In the energetic realm, you have immense connections. There are many who are working at many levels with many beings. You may not even realize it, but you are being helped.

A great deal of what is happening is not happening at a level you can see or measure. It is a big process. It most likely will take time, even lifetimes. It does not have to, but it is likely that it will. Many may not come around in this lifetime. Many may come through a future incarnation, and that is fine, too. All are on their path.

The most important thing is to be clear about your path and to stay true to it. Feed your path, grow with it, experience it as fully as you are able, and trust the process.

Question: Can you offer any insight about the second coming of Christ?

Mary Magdalene: The first thing to understand is that all of you are the second coming of Christ. It is not that a being is going to be incarnated. It is that you are incarnating Christ consciousness and this is the time that has been chosen to do that.

It is not a given as far as when that will occur. It remains to be chosen by the ones who will be appearing as the Christ consciousness. It certainly would be wonderful if it would occur this year. It is more likely that it will take more time.

What may seem like a long time in human time is seen very differently at the higher realms. To us it appears that this transformation is happening very rapidly, which is difficult for many people. This is one of the reasons for sickness among people, because of the rapidity of the transformation that human beings are going through. It is unparalleled.

Questioner: So you are saying that you do not believe that a second coming of Jesus Christ is happening, where the being who was physically Jesus in a past life will be incarnating again to help save the planet?

Mary Magdalene: It is not my understanding that the being who incarnated as Jesus will be incarnating again.

There are many, many ways that incarnation happens. It is not the form that matters. It is the consciousness and the love that you manifest on the Earth that is important. At the time that Jesus incarnated two thousand years ago, it was necessary for that to be in the form of an individual human. This is not the case any longer.

There are many who are deeply connected to the one that you know as Jesus, just as there are many who are deeply connected to myself. Oftentimes this is through a soul group connection.

Many of you carry the soul group essence or lineage within you. Many of you have access to Jesus (Yeshua) and to the whole soul group in some form or another, through your direct connection to spirit. This is a stronger form. It is a very good sign that this is the case. It is a sign of humanity’s growth and evolution.

Questioner: Thank you.

Mary Magdalene: You are welcome.

Question: I’ve been hearing that we’re about to receive a great wave of big change, beginning at the end of September and continuing over the next six months or so. The changes will be very dramatic, including Earth changes, dissolution of governmental systems, and a lot of other changes on the planet, along with a raising of consciousness with all of this change. Is this correct?

Mary Magdalene: It is very natural for humans to want to know what is about to happen. Indeed, changes of the nature you are describing have been predicted for quite some time now.

In fact, no one can predict what is going to happen. It is not written. It is not created. You are creating it now. Not you alone, but you in concert with all the beings involved. There are beings involved who you may not be aware of. It is always the case that there are many beings at many levels involved. But at the third dimension, most people are not aware of that. There are a great many factors and forces at work here.

It is true that the patterns set in motion right now point to exactly what you are speaking of. That is to say, if nothing were to change, if everything were to go forth exactly in the way things are set in motion at this moment, it is very likely that something of what you are speaking will happen.

It is not necessarily going to happen in the time frame being predicted. Time frames are extremely difficult to predict. Sometimes people do predict time frames accurately, but it is mostly by chance that that happens. (She laughs.) In terms of statistics or odds, people have a chance of getting something right, but it’s a much larger chance of their not being accurate. Nonetheless, what you are pointing to is very probable, given what is in motion at this time.

There are great forces at play in your world right now that are calling for huge change. Ultimately it’s a change of consciousness. This is a time when people have an opportunity to move and advance very quickly. Such times can be unsettling. They often appear as disasters.

Disasters are oftentimes what open up the consciousness, the web of reality, and allow those who are prepared to move through in a very direct manner, which otherwise might happen in a much slower, step-by-step way. Those who are not prepared do not tend to see this as an opening. What they see is what would be called a disaster, involving loss of human life, loss of life for other beings such as animals and plants on the Earth, and disruption of your ordinary world processes.

It is very likely that something of this nature is going to occur. It can occur through natural systems, like volcanoes, tsunamis, or earthquakes. It can occur through social systems breaking down suddenly. There might be huge economic upheaval, such as the Great Depression, or a war, things of this nature, which are created more at the human level. There can be an interplay where both natural and social events are involved.

This change can also happen in a way that human beings don’t remember having experienced before. Things could happen that could be very frightening to people who don’t understand the spiritual process involved and don’t remember such an event ever having occcurred before. This could include changes in your sun, changes in the light, changes in the energy field or the grid that surrounds and permeates the Earth and affects all beings, including humans. It is very likely that these last kind of changes will be part of what will happen at some level. Oftentimes these changes happen in a subtle way that people don’t tend to notice if they’re not subtly attuned. But those who are more sensitive will notice. All of these things are possibilities.

We at the higher levels are always working to make these kinds of shifts as peaceful and gentle as possible, because they certainly can be disrupting, disturbing, or shocking for many people. It is our hope that the change that is being called forth will be as peaceful and gentle as possible. Ultimately there are great factors that are beyond any individual or any group’s control. This is a huge process that is underway, which is not only involving the Earth. It is involving a great part of your universe. It has been supported in many ways, by many beings, from many places, who have been working on this for a very long time.

I cannot tell you an exact time. I cannot tell you exactly what will happen. All those involved will help to create what will happen and when it will happen. At some point in the future of the Earth, and most likely the relatively near future, something of the nature of what you’re talking about is very likely to happen.

Questioner: Maybe the real purpose of this is truly for an evolutionary shift of the consciousness of humanity. Is that the real bottom line?

Mary Magdalene: The bottom line involves so much more than just humans, but that is certainly one aspect. It is a huge opportunity. Humanity is being called to an evolutionary shift. It is going to happen. Yet this transformation is much bigger than just what’s happening for humanity.

On the individual level, it is not necessary to wait for this kind of shift. It is always possible to be moving forward and changing. Yet when there is this kind of a shift, there is a tremendous opportunity available. It is a blessed time that is coming forth. Many will not see it this way. Many will see it with great fear. They will have a great sense of abandonment by God or whatever else they believe in. But that is not the case. The more you understand this, the more you can make use of it.

There are those who try to prepare for these kinds of changes in physical ways, such as creating shelter for yourself, or stockpiling food, or even having guns and ammunition. This is really the least way to prepare. The most important preparation is your spiritual preparation, to have done your work, to have completed your foundational processes so that you are ready to move forward. That will make it possible for you to ride this wave that is coming. It will certainly make it easier. And it will support others in riding the wave, also.

You have probably heard of separate or simultaneous realities. This is already happening and it’s going to get exaggerated. Those who are spiritually aware, prepared, and ready will have a very different experience than those who are not.

As is always the case, you will be drawing people to you who are at a similar frequency to what you are generating. As a group, you will be very supportive of each other. All groups will be supportive of each other. But if the group is resonating at a relatively low frequency, that low frequency is what they will be supporting. There is a perfection about it.

Those who are seeing this as a disaster and those who may die in the process will be helped in other ways to make this shift. They will be helped in the afterlife. They will be helped through a new incarnation in another Earth-like realm, or perhaps in a higher realm, if they are ready for that. Everyone is always being helped.

Questioner: Thank you.

Mary Magdalene: You are welcome.

It is not necessarily helpful for those who are spiritually awake to talk to those who are not prepared for this event about what is going to happen. They will likely see you as loony, or off on a tangent, at best. If they have an opening, you certainly can talk to them, but that is something to be very sensitive about.

You can even ask them if they’re interested in hearing your point of view or your beliefs about what’s underway. Asking is always a very important practice.

The way that you will help everyone, regardless of their level of preparation, awareness, or ability to consciously make use of what’s happening, is through your emanation of peace and love, as opposed to fear. This is always the greatest help you can offer.

Questioner: Thank you so much.

Mary Magdalene: You are most welcome.

Question: Do we have a different relationship or responsibility with our children than we do with other beings we are in contact with in this life? As a mother, I feel such a strand of connection with my children that’s very different from what I feel for any other beings.

Mary Magdalene: What age children are you referring to?

Questioner: My children are adults.

Mary Magdalene: The relationship with children is most certainly unique and different from other forms of relationship. You could say that all relationships are unique. But relationships with one’s children have their own uniqueness, in a way that’s somewhat universal.

When children are younger, they are not capable of the kind of care that they need on their own, simply by using their own free will. Parenting young children is a process of guiding them, supporting them, and caring for them. It also involves progressively respecting children’s free will as they mature and become capable of a new level. This occurs throughout their childhood years until adulthood. Optimally by the time they are adults, they are ready to be entirely on their own. Then it is time to entirely respect their free will.

This is a challenging transition for most parents. You know how young your children are, even when they’re adults, because you were that age yourself at one time. (She laughs.) Yet they have come for their own path. They have come to do their own work. You would deprive them if you tried to go beyond the point of respecting their free will.

You still completely love them and still have the unique parental relationship with them, which has a lot to do with unconditional love. That doesn’t mean unconditional like. (She laughs.) You may not like many things about your children. But the unconditional love is what is unique once they are adults.

To some extent, children never grow out of their need for your unconditional love. Yet it is in a new framework once they are adults. You now interact with them as you would a friend. You may have ideas or suggestions but you ask their permission to share those ideas and suggestions. If they are not disposed to your ideas and suggestions, you hopefully respect them the way you would a friend.

They will change, also. Particularly if they have children, their relationship to you will change, as they understand more what the parenting role is and what it involves.

And each child is different. You have a different soul relationship to each child. If you have more than one child, you surely know this. It is part of the parental path to balance the differences in your relationships with your children, without negating the differences. Honoring the differences and include all. Hopefully the unconditional love is there for all in fullest amounts.

Does that answer the question you were asking?

Questioner: Yes.

My deeper question has to do with the soul bond with children, like a soul family rather than just a physical family. There’s a profound soul connection that I can’t figure out. It’s just there.

Mary Magdalene: Sometimes your rational mind may be in conflict with the nature of your soul relationship with someone. For example, sometimes children come in as the teacher of the parent. Sometimes you have a long lover relationship with one of your children. That can be something that your mind might tend to negate, yet you feel it. It can seem conflictual if you have a certain relationship with one child and not another child. Working with all of these relationships is not necessarily simple.

Everyone involved has chosen to incarnate in this form of relationship for a purpose. At some point you will most likely be aware of that purpose. Often it is an unfolding process over many years. Ultimately you are each in service to each other, in different ways.

This is something that is true even with relationships you have great conflict with. You have chosen those relationships, as well, and they are in service to everyone involved. They can be potentially the most growthful and can be quite difficult.

Questioner: Yes those are the ones we want to avoid.

Mary Magdalene: Yes. Yet those have been chosen as well. It takes wisdom, oftentimes, to be able to see that.

Mercedes: Mary wants me to share an experience that I’ve had several times in my life of working a job (back in the days when I worked for others). I often came to a place of not liking and eventually resenting the job, feeling burdened by the job, and ultimately quitting the job. There would be a period of time between the time I gave my notice and I actually left where suddenly I felt so free and I would wonder, “What was the big problem?” (Mercedes laughs.)

What Mary’s pointing out is that this is an example of being in a difficult relationship or circumstance that’s serving your growth. That window of freedom I experienced once I gave my notice to quit was me seeing through the challenging circumstance to the actual soul connection and love I had with those people.

Question: Mary, one of the hardest things for me is feeling helpless as I watch the destruction of the planet. I feel very sensitive to seeing trees bulldozed over and especially the animals. There are so many endangered animals. The wildlife and the domestic animals are treated with cruelty in many situations. Do you have any advice about this from your perspective in another realm?

Mary Magdalene: Relative to animals being endangered, they are simply transitioning to another realm. They are not lost.

The cruelty is another matter. The animals have chosen, volunteered, to come into these roles to help humans, in particular, to grow. The cruelty that is being enacted is an opportunity for humans to realize their misuse of power on many levels. The animals are even helping humans to realize their misuse of power in relationship to humans. The misuse is not always in the physical way. It occurs in many ways—socially, emotionally, as well as physically.

You must understand that resisting something is not a productive course. You feed things that you resist. You’re feeding it with your energy, your life force. Loving something is very different from resisting.

You certainly can love the animals. More importantly, you must love the people who are mistreating the animals. They are the ones who need your love the most. You do not have to meet them. You do not have to know them personally. You can love them spiritually, but very intentionally, very directly.

One of the great lessons of the third dimension is the lesson of power. Humans are still learning the lesson of misuse versus the proper use of power. Those who are misusing power are at an earlier stage. They need your help. They need your love.

You certainly can demonstrate something different relative to power and how it’s held. The more people do that, the stronger the new way will become. But it must be through love, not resistance. This is the way you transform anything, through love.

Is that helpful?

Questioner: Yes, it is.

I am curious about the animal spirit. I see so much of God in the animals. I sometimes feel them as children, but really as very wise beings. I would like more understanding of the spirit of the animals who are here with us and their evolution.

Mary Magdalene: It is true that they are spirit allies, just as many of you have animal spirit allies in non-physical form. Many, many of the animals are allies, teachers. They have come to support and help you. They teach you so much, if you are open to it.

Their path is different from yours, and yet interwoven with the human path. Many of the animals come from different places in the Universe, as do humans. Various animals may have differing amounts of time that they have been on Earth. When they are endangered or going extinct, it is simply that their soul contract is complete and they are moving on.

Questioner: Thank you.

Mary Magdalene: You are welcome.

QUESTION: Is it true that the earth’s vibrational energy is increasing and people are leaving because they can’t accept it?

MARY MAGDALENE: That is very simplistic. It is more complicated than that. It is true that the earth’s energy is increasing. There are many different responses that people have to that.

Some people choose to leave in response to the increasing energy. Some people choose to leave because they have completed their time here. Their karmic agreements have been fulfilled. Some people leave because they want to serve this process in a different way.

Ultimately no one leaves. They just change state. So people may choose to “transfer to a different company,” or “change the channel.” (Mary laughs.)

There is a frequency that’s being held on earth right now that is very important. Many beings—many light beings and many light human beings—have come to support that.

Many people are experiencing this increased energy in physical ways that are challenging. They’re anchoring the energy through their physical body and physical being. Some people experience it more energetically, some people more emotionally. But energetically and physically tend to be the strongest.

This is very important work that’s happening now, which many beings have come to help with, probably many of you. It is important not to judge, not to look at it in a two-dimensional way as to whether beings are doing something or not, doing a particular form or not. That does not support anyone.

The most important thing is to stay focused on your path. Love every being to the very best you are able and know that you don’t know another being’s path. Sometimes it is very different from how it appears through the filter of the mind.
