Divine Feminine-Masculine Union
WHAT COULD NOT BE REMOVED ABOUT YESHUA AND MARY MAGDALENE
Received by Mercedes Kirkel
On July 28, 2014
Question: It seems to me that, as a culture, we spend a lot of time talking about Yeshua as an individual and less about his teachings. We tend, as human beings, to worship idols, so to speak. What I’m perceiving that you’re bringing forth are the principles of the Feminine Divine. The Church wanted to make you not available, but maybe more important were the principles you brought forth.
Mary Magdalene: Very much so. This is why Yeshua was turned into a God, so that he could be distant and removed. Part of the removal was the removal of his teaching, along with the idea that others could be what he was and is. The idea of him being different from all other humans was the opposite of what he taught. So there was much that was changed and much that was lost.
What was not lost was his Presence. People’s connection with that is very real. And there is great power in his Presence. Your eastern religions have recognized this to a very strong degree. They understand that spiritual transformation can happen in a number of ways. Teaching is one way. Another way is through the transmission of spiritual Presence. Many people experience this with Yeshua and with myself. It is why people have remained in connection with both of us, but you might say in particular with me when it would have been so easy for my story, my work, my Presence, my everything to have been buried. But it did not happen because, while the Church was able to change the mental aspects of what occurred—the story and the teaching, they could not change the reality of spiritual Presence. That has remained alive and carried the ember of our work all this time.
But spiritual instruction is a tremendous boon. The most powerful is the combination—for people to have spiritual instruction along with spiritual Presence. This is a tremendous help.
It is also true that in the third dimension, part of being so bonded to the physical form is that beings are more easily connected to the human form of anything than its more subtle form. Teaching is more subtle. Spiritual Presence is more subtle. So the human form is the most accessible. It also gives people inspiration and hope that if this happened for one human, it can happen for them. There is tremendous power in that hope. Hope is an enormous spiritual asset. It can turn the ember of spiritual connection into a raging fire, a passion that transforms and creates miracles. So the human connection is also quite important, especially in this realm. This is part of why it was important for us to manifest in the human form.
Different people will find different aspects of our work that they resonate with most. And that is fine. Whatever form speaks to your heart, that is the form that will feed and support you for this part of your path.

MARY MAGDALENE: Being Strong in the Feminine Without Challenging the Masculine
Shakti Dancing compliments of KarunaArts.com
Received by Mercedes Kirkel
On July 28, 2014
[NOTE FROM MERCEDES: This dialog occurred during a gathering in Sedona, AZ, during which I was channeling Mary Magdalene. The questioner was a woman who attended the gathering.]
Question: I have been studying your teachings and have felt drawn to your fire and your softness. I want to better understand the Feminine power in its ecstatic, sexual fire form. What is the way to not challenge the Masculine with this fire energy of the Feminine and a Feminine body? How can I safely contain it and flow it, without inviting danger, rape, and Masculine domination from the out-of-balance Masculine?
Mary Magdalene: There is much to this. I am glad that you have asked. It is important for many to know and understand this.
It has a great deal to do with being strong in your emotions and your physical body. The natural progression for a child is first to develop their relationship to their physical body and then their emotional body, their energy body, and lastly their sexuality. The energy body is an early form of sexuality, but it doesn’t become sexual as most people think of sexuality until a later point. If this progression is well developed and people are strong in this, you have great strength and protection.
At this time, especially in the West, many are not strong in this. Women often were schooled to be dissociated from their physical body and their emotions in many ways. Men have been schooled to dissociate in different ways, especially with certain of the emotions. But for women, it is often that they were trained to be subservient and submissive, and to subdue their strength relative to their body and their emotions—particularly if it was in a form that seemed at all challenging to authority or the Masculine, or both.
For many, changing this will require strengthening of the emotions, and possibly the physical body as well. I do not mean strengthening as far as building up muscles, although you could liken it to building up muscles. But it’s not literally what I am speaking about. I am talking about not having blocks, being fully developed and complete in your maturity in these areas.
This is why in the first book that Mercedes brought through from me, Mary Magdalene Beckons, I focused so much on the emotions. At this time, many—including many light workers, many who are very sincerely on the spiritual path and very dedicated to that path—are still lagging behind in their emotional development, suppressed in certain areas. This has affected your power tremendously, because you don’t know yourself if you are not clear in your emotions. You are not connected to yourself. You don’t know what’s going on. You’re not getting the signals that are telling you what’s happening with yourself and in your world. You have learned to shut those down.
Until you do that emotional work in its fullness and you become strong in that, you will have this problem of being divorced from your power. This is a massive problem at this time in your world. This is why you live in a world that is so dominated by so very few people. It is because all of you have been trained to give your power away.
This is not limited to women. This is also the case with men, although their training happens in a somewhat different way. But you have been trained to submit and to be submissive. Some use stronger words. They say you’ve been trained to be slaves. There is a certain amount of truth in this. And it is why so much of your world is controlled by those who actually have very little power. They have convinced you to be divorced from your own power. So it seems that they have a great deal of power. They don’t, in fact. If you were to call back your power, you could easily overcome them because you are much more powerful. It is simply numbers.
The root of this problem is in the emotions, in not being connected to your emotional body and getting the information that the emotional body would give you. If you were connected to your emotions and you were in a situation where the emotions were telling you—and you were receiving the communication—to be afraid, that this is not a safe situation, that would empower you to act and to bring about the safety that you require. But if you have divorced yourself from your feelings, you do not recognize that your communication of fear is coming up, so you don’t receive the information that this is not a safe situation.
Sexuality is something that requires discernment. This is why children are not sexual at birth. They don’t have that discernment. Sexuality is given to them when their minds are more developed, and hopefully the other parts of their being—their physical, emotional, and energy bodies—are also more developed. Then they have the capability of using their sexuality with discernment.
It is not that you are to open your sexual power to the world as a continual, ongoing state or to anyone you encounter. In general, this would not be wise and would not support you. It does not mean that you shut down your power. You keep your power open to yourself and then you choose in what circumstances and with whom it is the correct situation to open sexually.
In your time, you are given so many messages that are very confusing. You are constantly being shown sexual messages through your media that are indoctrinating you that you should be sexual all the time if you want to have any value. This has created great confusion.
Your Feminine power is not identical to your sexuality. They are two different things. Sexuality is one form that your Feminine power takes, but it is not the only form. You choose when you wish to manifest your Feminine power through the form of sexuality.
You must become wise. You must become discerning. But more than anything, you must heal your emotional blocks. You must learn to, once again, come into complete integration and functional mastery and utilization of your emotions. The ones I am talking about are your painful emotions, the ones many refer to as your “negative emotions,” which in and of itself is a communication saying, “This is something you should not be involved in.” That is misinformation. That is part of the propaganda being put out all the time. It is propaganda against the Feminine. Your emotions—including all of your painful emotions—are part of your Feminine nature, whether you are a man or a woman. The suppression and misinformation that has been put out about emotions has been part of the programming of suppressing your power.
Ultimately your power is in the Feminine. The Masculine is not as powerful as the Feminine. This is not to say that men are not as powerful as women, because men have their Feminine, just as women do. The Masculine is a genius at implementation. But the Feminine is the fuel. The Feminine is the spark. The Feminine is the energy. The Feminine is the power.
With this comes responsibility. Some have awakened to their Feminine power and have not awakened to the same understanding of how to use it responsibly. It is not to dominate. It is not to hurt. It is not to overpower. It is to be used in love. It is to be used in love of the Masculine. It is a beautiful system that works perfectly when it is full, when you are in your wholeness.
Part of your process of coming to the Earth has been to realize this wholeness. It is a very great process, this wholeness in the third dimension. It is a process that, for most of you, will require lifetimes. You are learning about all the different aspects of this wholeness. Power is an enormous one that is being learned about in the third dimension. More than anything else, you might say that the third dimension is a school for learning about power. Many of you have suffered the incompleteness of this lesson. It is a lesson in process and many misuses are still occurring. That is the way beings learn and grow in the third dimension.
I highly recommend that you devote yourself to this growth. It is the most important thing you can do. It is what will ultimately free you from the pain, the suffering, the limitation you have experienced when this growth is not yet complete.
Does that answer your question, or is there more that you wish to know about this?
Questioner: There is more. Part of my teachings has been to use sexual power as part of my medicine, energy, and vitality. When there is an abundance of that in the Feminine form, that seems to taunt authority and the Masculine. How do we keep the raw Feminine fire safe?
Mary Magdalene: You must develop your heart. Power must always be used in service to the heart. The heart does not taunt.
Questioner: I’m not saying the intention is to taunt. When a female is flowing her energy, why does that seem to taunt authority? Is that part of what rape is? What is it about the Feminine that challenges the Masculine in that way? Why has the Masculine for centuries now had to shut down the Feminine?
Mary Magdalene: What I have to say may be hard to hear.
Questioner: OK.
Mary Magdalene: (speaking gently) There is a learning for you in this. In some way, you are still seeing the Masculine as your opponent. In some way there is probably pain inside of you relative to the Masculine. And there is healing to be done.
Questioner: Is it not collective, though?
Mary Magdalene: (still speaking gently) It is never collective. It is always in our hearts. In our hearts we create this world. Whatever you’re experiencing in this world is what you have created in your heart. If you are having this experience, there is some way that it is calling to you to do some transformational work within yourself. It may be difficult to see.
Questioner: No, I see it. Thank you.
Mary Magdalene: Are you complete with this?
Questioner: For now, yes. Thank you.
Mary Magdalene: Many blessings to you.

MARY MAGDALENE: Why You Were Guided to the San Francisco Bay Area
“Golden gate2” by Aslak Raanes
Received by Mercedes Kirkel
On August 9, 2014
[Note from Mercedes: This message was directed to me personally from Mary Magdalene, shortly after I moved to the San Francisco Bay Area, which I did in response to guidance from Spirit to make this move. I offer it for everyone because I feel there is information from Mary that will be of value to many.]
Mercedes: Beloved Mary, I ask for your help and guidance. I am feeling exhausted and discouraged from my search for a place to live in the Bay Area. The rents are much higher than I am used to and comfortable with, and what’s being offered in exchange seems very small and limiting, sometimes even depressing. On top of that, so many people are looking for places and there are many fewer available, so that I’m not even getting responses to my inquiries. Is this a sign that I’m not supposed to be here? Where am I supposed to be and what am I supposed to do?
Mary Magdalene: Hello my dear one. I am here, as always, and I am glad that you have called upon me. I feel the heaviness in your body and mind and I sense how difficult this time has been for you.
I am celebrating the things you are doing to stay strong in the midst of this. You have been meditating daily, which is so important. You have been caring for your body with good food, exercise, and sleep. You have been talking with your friends and sharing your feelings with them, getting their support and really taking it in. You have been receiving touch, which is such an important form of nurturing for you. You have reached out to your circle of friends and acquaintances in the area and asked for their prayers and practical help in finding a rental. You have shown courage in asking for help beyond your comfort zone. You have remained compassionate and caring toward others and their struggles and challenges, including landlords who have chosen others over you. You have remained in a disposition of trust that there is enough for all. You have gone through your initial stress and fear to reach a greater depth of openness to Spirit’s guidance of your life. And you have allowed your mind to expand to greater possibilities, including that you may live further from your desired location or perhaps may not stay in this area at all. This is all most important and highly laudable. I want to be sure you are aware of how strong your practice and connection to Spirit has been in this time.
You sense that there is still reason for you to be in this area and I am in agreement with that. You have also sensed that this challenging time you are experiencing is for a purpose, which I also agree with. You might liken it to the difficult passage of childbirth that leads to a being entering fully into your third dimension. Similarly, you are entering into a new phase of your life and work, and this difficulty is part of what is preparing you for that.
You are becoming sensitive, through your personal experience, to the great stress that many people are feeling at the survival level at this time. You have been mostly shielded from this up till now. Even when people described to you how challenging the housing market is in the Bay Area, prior to your coming there and experiencing it yourself, you did not really understand or fully believe what they were telling you. You did not have deep empathy for what this experience is like.
This is part of your process of preparing for greater service. You are now understanding in a whole new way the powerful stress that so many experience at this time. You are in a bigger metropolitan area, (though certainly not as big as some in your world) and you are seeing the results when so many people are concentrated into a finite area, how inhuman it can become. You are also seeing the stress created by a higher speed of life and a higher cost of living. All of this is a part of many people’s ongoing reality, and now you are coming to understand this in a much more profound way.
You have experienced sadness about this, not merely for yourself but primarily for all those who live in this circumstance and consider it to be normal. And you have maintained your dignity and heart-openness in the midst of it.
Part of this is for your growth. With the completion of your recent book, your work is at the beginning of a new phase of great growth. For this to be allowed and supported, you need to be in a bigger circumstance than you were previously. The Bay Area is not just a bigger circumstance in terms of population. It is specifically bigger in terms of both spiritual teachers and the general population who are interested in the kind of work you are doing. This is fertile ground for you. And you are bringing something to this area that is greatly needed and for which people are hungry.
The Bay Area is, in general, a kind of spiritual portal for the astral dimension. This is why it has become a center for spiritual teachers and aspirants alike. The spiritual energy is stronger there than in many places, and people’s spiritual practice and growth tends to be supported more fully there—though, of course, it is possible to practice and grow spiritually anywhere. Nonetheless, there are areas on the Earth where different energies are felt and concentrated, and the Bay Area is such a place for the astral energies.
The astral tends to be more mind-oriented and thus tends to favor the Masculine. That is why many of the more Masculine-oriented teachings, such as the non-dual approach, have flourished in the Bay Area. There is much about these teachings that is true and is helpful to people. But like any teaching that tends to be favoring either the Masculine or the Feminine, it isn’t, in general, complete. The complete spiritual teaching and path that is essential at this time is the union of the Masculine and Feminine. In your world at this time, that will generally require the strengthening of the Feminine, along with the opening of the Masculine to value and support the Feminine, so that both may come into balance, harmony, and ultimately union.
Through receiving my instruction and guidance, you have become a voice and a guide for this shift from a spiritual consciousness that favors the Masculine into a spiritual consciousness that embraces and values the Feminine. And you have a significant role to play in this transformation. The Bay Area is the ideal place for you to spearhead this movement. (Please receive the humor of my using such a Masculine term for the very Feminine dynamic that is being called forth to rise and flower.)
This is why you have been brought here and it is not a mistake. The challenges you are experiencing are part of the process of you shedding your old identity and growing into one that is much larger and expansive, just as your work is growing to a much greater and expanded reach and impact. It parallels, in many ways, the process many others are experiencing of being stretched into a greater spiritual size and dimension, as part of the ascension process. This is your particular form of being stretched and grown. You are becoming a powerful leader for the Feminine.
Just as a woman going through childbirth is encouraged to relax deeply and surrender into the process, so do I recommend this for you in this time. Trust in the process. It is for your highest good and you will be fine.
Thank you for all the trust you have shown to this point and that I know you will continue to show. You are a great example for many of receiving your inner guidance and trusting it to the point of changing your entire life to follow it. Thank you so deeply for this.
I am here with and for you, in love and service. Call on me at any time.
I hold you in my arms of love,
I AM Mary Magdalene
[Afterword from Mercedes: Right after I received this message from Mary I responded to an ad for a rental. The woman called me back immediately and invited me to come see it. We met a few hours later and both really liked each other. She told me that a psychic had recently told her that a woman just like me would be moving into her house. We both agreed that it seemed like a perfect fit and I now have a place to live!]

MARY MAGDALENE: Calling In A Partner
Image courtesy of karunaarts.com.
Received by Mercedes Kirkel
On May 13, 2014
Question: My past relationships with men have not been where I would like them to be. I want to be in a space where I attract the kind of man to me that I really want to have a relationship with. What might I do to call in that space, find that partner, and truly enjoy the fullness of a healthy relationship together?
Mary Magdalene: What are the areas that have been your challenges and which you feel you are moving beyond into a new form of relating?
Questioner: I would like to meet someone who has moved beyond financial struggles or pretty much has that settled, so it’s not a major issue. I also want a man who has handled his “baggage” with his mother and other women. And I want somebody who’s spiritually in alignment with me, who is a conscious male, who doesn’t look at my beliefs and what I do as strange or a hobby, or as something not significant and important in my life.
Mary Magdalene: These are different arenas and different issues that you have brought up—all very valid ones. The one relative to finance and money may be related to receiving and your ability to open to receiving. Is receiving an area that you have challenges with?
Questioner: In the past, yes. I come from a family of women who give more than they ever allow anything in. I’m not quite like them, but there’s still that imprint or genetic belief that I show my worth by giving. A part of me believes that giving to men shows why I’m important to them and why they would want to be with me.
Mary Magdalene: It would most likely be very valuable for you to take on a practice of receiving from men. If you have men in your life that you interact with in some way or other, through work or friendship or whatever, you can allow yourself to start to practice consciously receiving from them.
Know that what the Feminine gives to men is different than what the Masculine gives to you. You give them the Feminine essence. This is your life-force, your joy, your love, your nurturing—not nurturing in the sense of doing, like making food or cleaning the house or something like that. It’s energetic nurturing. The Feminine is basically about energy. You’re giving the energy of life and love to your partner. You’re enriching them through your energy. It also takes the form of intuition, insight, and emotion. It takes the form of pleasure. All of those are the domain of the Feminine. This is what you give to men through your Feminine.
What men give to women through their Masculine is much more about taking care of women, in very practical, pragmatic ways. They may support you in physical ways, financial ways, or helping figure things out in mental ways, through solving problems and those kinds of things. This is the fundamental play of the Masculine and the Feminine.
Of course, when you’re alone you’re drawing on your own Masculine and Feminine to be whole. Every individual needs to have their own wholeness, preferably before coming into a relationship. Then you’re whole in and of yourself. But the play between the Masculine and Feminine still exists. This has been lost to a certain extent in the Earth’s cultures of today, especially western culture, because so many things have changed, where women are very much living in their Masculine. They are schooled in their Masculine, they work in their Masculine, they care for themselves and oftentimes for others and they’re very much in their Masculine—oftentimes to the point of being cut off from their own Feminine and not knowing their own Feminine.
Men tend to also be in the Masculine and the Masculine orientation is what’s generally supported in your world today. When men see women coming from their Masculine, they see no need to take care of them, any more than they would take care of another man. The relationship ends up being very much about two Masculine beings relating to each other, which has not worked very well for many people.
If you’re calling in a relationship where you want a man who’s strong financially, who’s competent and self-sufficient in that way, then you need to be more in the Feminine role and have the man be more in the Masculine role. You may need to strengthen your Feminine, in relation to men in general, as part of calling in the man you desire to be in relationship with—strengthening your Feminine of receiving and responding energetically. So that is the first thing I would recommend.
How does that sound to you?
Questioner: Good. It makes sense.
Mary Magdalene: Wonderful. Relative to the second thing your were pointing to—that men had issues with women and their mothers—the main thing you can do is to make sure you’re clear relative to your issues with men. The degree to which you are clear in that arena determines the degree to which you will be calling in a partner who’s equally clear in their issues and relationships with women. Does that make sense?
Questioner: Yes.
Mary Magdalene: Are you aware of what your work is in that area?
Questioner: Yes. I’ve had other men come in and they have the same issues. So I know that I still have some things to work out to call in something different.
Mary Magdalene: Yes. Sometimes they’re mirroring your issues and sometimes they’re complementing your issues, which means they’re bringing the other side. One way or the other, they’re potentially pointing to what you’re doing to create the dynamic. So you must work on your issues and come to a place of healing from wounds that you have with men, whether it be your father or past relationships that you’ve had. You must come to the point of understanding and compassion for them and the wounding from which they’re coming. But you can’t do that until you’ve done the first. For your compassion and understanding of the other to be authentic and not just suppression, you always have to heal yourself first.
This will eventually lead you to the place of treasuring men, loving them, seeing them as so valuable, so wonderful and beautiful, and such a gift to you. This is the place you want to be in. Then you will draw men who are that for you, absolutely.
The third arena is relative to your partner’s spiritual development or consciousness. The primary thing for that is that you start to have the lens of seeing everyone as spiritual, as doing their spiritual work, rather than being different from you. Their circumstance might be different, they may have very different areas that they’re working on, which is their work to do at this time. But you start to see the similarities and you break down your lens of seeing the differences between you and the way you’re doing your spiritual work. That will very strongly affect the dynamic of any separation between your approach to spirituality and the approach of your partner.
If you do this, then even if your partner has a different path than yours, they will not see a fundamental difference. They’ll see that you’re on your path and that it is all important, valuable work.
Is that helpful?
Questioner: Yes, that makes sense.
Mary Magdalene: I am glad.
This has been a joy and a delight to speak with you, to interact, and to help you as best I’m able. My heart overflows with joy and love for you. Many blessings, my dear.
I AM Mary Magdalene

MARY MAGDALENE: The Marriage You Are Moving Toward
Given to Mercedes Kirkel
On July 22, 2014
[Note: This message was given on Mary Magdalene’s feast day.]
Hello my dear one,
Thank you for reaching out to me today and requesting that I communicate with you. I realize this is a day in which I am honored by many, and I appreciate the connection I feel with so many on this day, including yourself. And so I am most happy to communicate with you, as always.
I wish to begin with a personal message for you. You have pushed yourself very hard to bring forth your new book, which includes instruction from me on sacred sexuality. [Note: Mary is referring to Sublime Union: A Woman’s Sexual Odyssey Guided by Mary Magdalene.] I realize you wanted to have this available for everyone by today, to celebrate me. I thank you for this and affirm that this is going to be a book of great value to many. Your work and dedication is highly commendable and of great service. I also want to emphasize, as I have on previous occasions, that you must take care of yourself in the process. You have exhausted yourself through your hard work and it is important that you rest and remain balanced, even as you perceive there is so much to do. It is true that you are growing in your ability to draw upon higher energies to accomplish what you want to have done, and this is helping you tremendously. Nonetheless, you are still operating in the third dimension with physical requirements, and it is important that you continue to attend to these.
I perceive changes in your world that I see as positive. There are more and more who are awakening to the Feminine, and this is what is called for in your world at this time more than anything else. It would be more accurate to say “re-awakening,” because the connection to the Feminine was alive and strong in the distant past on Earth. But it has been suppressed and even forgotten to a large extent for a very long time. This is beginning to change.
The connection that many are feeling to me is one sign of this. The reason that my popularity is increasing at this time is because more and more people are finding their connection to the Feminine and they recognize that essence in me, even if they can’t name it as such. I seem to symbolize or embody it for many. And indeed, that is my role. I am the carrier of the Divine Feminine—not exclusively, of course, for that would be impossible and antithetical to what the Divine Feminine is. But I carry that pure quality in a form that is recognizable and identifiable for many.
This, of course, was why I was excluded and defamed for so long. You are coming out of a long period of time of conflict and competition, in which the Masculine, in its lower form—cut off from the Feminine, felt threatened by the Feminine and perceived it as necessary to suppress the Feminine in order to establish its authority and power. The results of this have been quite devastating to your world and many are now recognizing this.
This was a necessary, though painful, period of growth and exploration that humankind needed to experience, to see what the experience and results of this kind of dynamic would be. That epoch is coming to a completion. The experiment has been run and the results are clear. Now humans are increasingly ready for a new phase.
This is the phase of union between the Masculine and Feminine, of loving and cherishing both, each embracing the other to create wholeness. This is what will bring about the world so many of you envision and long for. As I have said many times before, the power is within each of you to create this, because it fundamentally will occur by each individual changing their relationship to their own Masculine and Feminine within.
This is why it was so important for the two books to be brought forward that you, Mercedes, have been the author for. In Mary Magdalene Beckons, I clarified the three arenas that everyone must strengthen to bring forth their own Divine Feminine: their relationship to their body, sexuality, and emotions. And I gave great instruction about how people can relate to their emotions, especially painful emotions, in a different way that will move them into union with God. This is the most important change for people, in general, to make at this time. It is what will do the very most to move people forward in their spiritual growth and into the next phase of spiritual evolution. It is what is least understood by most people relative to incarnating the Divine Feminine.
The second arena for people to develop to become strong in their own Divine Feminine is the area of sacred sexuality. This is what the new book, Sublime Union, is focused upon. This can be developed whether one is single or with a partner, because it is primarily an energy practice.
It is also important that people change their relationship to their body if there is any degree of shame, dislike, or dissociation from one’s physical body. I have not chosen to give instruction about this because there is already a great deal of information available to people about how to change this.
All three of these are the arenas within oneself that are the centers of your inner Feminine. If you are cut off or underdeveloped in any of these areas it is a reflection of your own suppression of the Feminine within yourself. When all of these areas are full and strong, you will have established the support for your inner Feminine so that you can reside stably in your heart, which is truly the inner throne of the Feminine. And you will also be prepared to open to your Divine Masculine within, to begin your courtship and eventual marriage with the Masculine, with both of these parts in their higher or mature form.
It is this marriage that you are all moving toward and which is also the gateway to the next dimension and your next level of spiritual growth. It is this marriage that Yeshua and I embodied and communicated to all with eyes to see and ears to hear. It is fundamentally a marriage of your own divine aspects and ultimately of yourself with God. It is the true marriage. All else is a celebration of this.
As more and more of you realize this and manifest this, your world will change to reflect this. Your world is already changing, which is a sign that this is underway. I celebrate this with you and support you all to continue in this great process. It is the calling of your heart and soul, and all are coming to recognize this in their perfect time.
I shower you with love and blessings and support as your sister in the heart.

MARY MAGDALENE: My Sacred Relationship with Yeshua
Mysticrose by Willow Arlenea, www.MysticLifeDesign.com
An Excerpt from MARY MAGDALENE BECKONS:
JOIN THE RIVER OF LOVE
By Mercedes Kirkel
Dear one of my heart ~
Today, I would like to tell you about me. I am Mary Magdalene. There is much confusion about me amongst many people, debate about who I was, what I was, what my relationship to Yeshua was. Much of the debate is a reflection of those who are debating. They see me through the filter of their beliefs and perceptions. They see me the way they see themselves and project onto me what they believe about themselves.
In truth, I was Yeshua’s sacred partner. We were equals, as holy man and woman, holy husband and wife. Just as there is no separation within our Mother-Father God—both aspects are equal and yet truly beyond equality, simply two faces of the Divine Being—so were Yeshua and I. We loved each other completely and still do. We saw each other as the divine self. We both were prepared for our meeting and relationship with each other, through the many schools and traditions of our times. My training was primarily through the Egyptian temple of Isis, where I was trained as a high priestess. There were many forms of being a priestess in this lineage. Many involved healing and blessing work. I was trained in the highest arts of serving the Divine through what was called Sacred Relationship. This was a school, or stream, within the temple, a very high one.
I was trained to relate to all of life as the play of God, the manifestation of God. And I was raised and trained to see all the parts of myself as holy and sacred—my physical body, emotional body, mental body, etheric body, and my higher self, or spiritual bodies. Upon this foundation, I was also trained to relate to a partner as the Divine Being and through that relationship to engage with that partner in practices and an entire sacred life that allowed each of us, each partner, to fulfill his or her divine blueprint of serving light and love in this world.
As a practitioner of Sacred Relationship, my design or chosen form (chosen by my soul before my incarnation at the time you know me from) was to engage Sacred Relationship with Yeshua and, through him, with all beings. He likewise chose—through his soul’s design and in concert with all the beings of light and our Mother- Father God—to engage Sacred Relationship with me and all beings. It was appropriate for that time and place that I should engage Sacred Relationship directly with Yeshua and indirectly with the world, and that he should engage Sacred Relationship directly with both me and the world.
Now the time has changed as we are entering into a new age, the age of Aquarius. It has been said by many that this is the age of equality between the Masculine and the Feminine, and this is true. And for this shift into equality to occur, there is a particular kind of passage required at this time. It is as though you are giving birth to the new age. As has always been the case with birth, this is uniquely the domain of the Feminine. It is the Feminine that must come to the fore and take the lead for this birth into the new age of equality to occur. And so I have been called to become very active at this time, to come forth to many to support this birth process, to support the Sacred Feminine coming forth, assuming her true power and place beside the Sacred Masculine. This is a call to all women and men, for all have the Sacred Feminine within them, as all have the Sacred Masculine, too. And it is a call to women and men in different ways.
For women, it is a call to assume your power, the Feminine power. The Feminine is the power of love and strength. We all know the strength it takes to birth a child. And it takes great strength to raise a child, as well. The Feminine is the complement to the Masculine. Both have their strengths, and both are required for wholeness. The Feminine brings life energy, love, aliveness, wisdom, faith, receptivity to the Divine, feeling, and inclusiveness. The Masculine brings insight, understanding, awareness, direction, tracking or maintaining awareness, attaining goals, and carrying out the divine plan. Each person contains all these qualities within them, as we all contain the Masculine and the Feminine within. And most people also resonate more fully with one or the other of these qualities, the Masculine or the Feminine. And so one option is to manifest this in life through Sacred Relationship with a partner.
Sacred Relationship is natural to humans, because of the way that we came to be here. We all came from the undifferentiated Source, or Oneness, which many call God. I use the term Supreme Creator. From the Supreme Creator came the first manifestation, a kind of step-down from Supreme Creator at the first level, which was Mother-Father God. All other beings and forms on Earth came through this first division into form. You could say that in some ways all beings on Earth are “children” of Mother-Father God. This isn’t literal because it is at a level of high physics that most people do not understand. I am giving you this as an analogy, simply to say that the pattern of Sacred Relationship is imprinted into your souls from this original manifestation that you are all the “offspring” of.
This does not mean that everyone needs to find a partner. Everyone can find Sacred Relationship within themselves. Indeed, each individual must find this whether they are with a partner or not. This wholeness within oneself is essential as the foundation for Sacred Relationship with a partner. One of the reasons there is so much difficulty and struggle in relationships today is that many have not found that wholeness within themselves and are looking to their partner—or a desired partner if they’re not yet in relationship—to make them whole. This is backward and will never work. People are not ready to enter into Sacred Relationship with a partner until they have found wholeness within themselves through the union and balancing of their own Masculine and Feminine and their union with God. On this basis, one comes to relationship whole, already full. Then one has love and light to offer a partner. Then there is excess to create the new union of their sacred partnership.
A sacred partnership is a kind of alchemy. You are mixing your destinies of service to God, of bringing love and light into the world. A true sacred partnership increases the love and light that the couple is bringing into the world, such that it is greater than the two could bring as individuals. That is sacred alchemy: it increases the love and light that both have to bring to the world through their relationship.
And so, to return to my relationship with Yeshua, we were in Sacred Relationship with each other, and this included sacred sexual relationship. We were both prepared for this through the training we received individually through sacred traditions, especially the Egyptian and Indian sacred paths. We engaged in lovemaking as a process of transforming our bodies into light and love, in service to our destinies. And we were deeply in love with each other. We lived this love through all aspects of our lives, and both of us were dedicated to the work that Yeshua was the leader for.
Today, as two thousand years ago, we are dedicated to supporting all humans in this process of upliftment and growth in God’s love and light. The form has evolved, but the calling and core is the same. I am devoted to being a kind of midwife at this time of the next phase of this Grand Plan, and thus I come to you with my messages in support of that.
I love you most fully and openheartedly.

MARY MAGDALENE: Taking Full Responsibility vs. Not Taking Things Personally

Part 2 of a Message
Received by Mercedes Kirkel
On April 6, 2014
[Note: This is a continuation of the previous post, titled “Are We Responsible For Everything We Experience?”]
Question: Some teach that we are 100% responsible for all we create in the world. For example, if someone is rude to us, that is something we created. Others, teach not to take things personally, i.e. I know what others say/do is about them, not about me. How do you see it?
Mary Magdalene: Hello dear ones. I return to you again to continue with my response to the question that has been asked. In my last communication, I addressed the first part of this question, explaining why you are responsible for the experiences you are having. Now I would like to address the second part of this question relative to the instruction some people have given to not take things personally.
This, too, is a complex thing to explain. Again I will do my best to clarify what is meant by this, as I see it.
I want to begin by explaining a certain context, which I believe is important to have in order to fully understand this. This relates to the two aspects of the Divine, which I have talked about extensively in the past. I refer to these two aspects as the Masculine and Feminine aspects of God, because that is the way I understand them most easily and directly. So I will use these terms of Masculine and Feminine. If labeling these aspects in that way doesn’t resonate with you, or perhaps is even repelling for you, please replace the terms with others that work for you. The labels are not what is important. It is the concepts and meanings that are valuable.
To recap what I mean by the Masculine and Feminine aspects of God, the Divine Masculine refers to the transcendental aspect of the Divine. It is that which is beyond or prior to manifestation. It is what is often referred to as the infinite or eternal. This quality of God was, in the past, especially focused on in your eastern religions as “going beyond” the world. In the west, this quality of God was found in the idea of heaven. Many of you have experienced this aspect of God through meditation.
The complementary, yet different, aspect of God, which I refer to as the Divine Feminine, is the aspect of God made manifest. You might call it the immanent God, as opposed to the transcendental God. This is God in form. This aspect of the Divine has been embodied in beings such as Jesus, Buddha, or Mohammed. However, it is much more than that. It’s about relating to all of manifestation as the Divine. This includes everything in manifestation—your entire world and all beings, human and nonhuman, as well as all worlds and all realms—all of the nonphysical realms in all of the dimensions. It is inconceivably vast. Of course, the Divine Masculine is inconceivably vast, also. They both are, but in different ways.
You might think of these two aspects as two sides of a coin. The transcendental is the realm of pure consciousness. And the immanent is the realm of consciousness made manifest. Both are true and real simultaneously. And both are the truth of you all the time. They are truly non-separate.
The reason I am going into so much detail of explaining this is because holding to one arena only, to the exclusion of the other, creates an imbalance of understanding relative to the full picture. Traditionally there has been a bias toward the Divine Masculine understanding of God, especially in your eastern religions. God was seen as something apart from your world and apart from yourself. It was assumed that if one seriously wanted to get closer to God it was necessary to detach from the world, based on the assumption that God is separate from the world.
In truth, God is both transcendental and immanent. Everything is God. This may only be a belief for most of you, but as you grow spiritually it will become more and more your reality. Separation is a hallmark of the third dimension. As you grow beyond the third dimension and its attendant consciousness, you will also grow beyond this view of God as other than or separate from manifestation.
This was a large part of what Yeshua came to teach. He came to teach love of self and love of others as God. This was a very radical idea in his time, and still is for most people—especially if you go beyond a cursory or superficial embrace of what this really means. He did not see himself as different from others, because he saw all as God. That was his truth and consciousness.
People experienced this consciousness in his company through the power of his being, the force-field of his consciousness, which was palpable and real when people were in his physical presence. This was truly the greatest “miracle” he performed—to allow people to experience his state and consciousness in his company. Unfortunately, most people didn’t have the ability to sustain this consciousness outside of his company. Because of this, they attributed it to him uniquely, making him into a God that was separate from themselves and all others. This is not what he wanted to communicate. Yet it was natural that it would occur, given the state of consciousness that most people had attained at that time.
Now you are living in a different time, when people are on the brink of breaking through to a higher state of consciousness, and with that moving into a higher dimension of reality. Many of you are opening to different ideas that suggest this higher state or that can support you in moving into it. The idea that everyone is fully responsible for their circumstance is one of those ideas. The idea that you shouldn’t take things personally is another one of those ideas. Yet they address different aspects of your reality and work in different ways.
The idea of not taking anything personally is a suggestion that is intended to move you into connecting more strongly with the Divine Masculine, or the transcendental aspect of God. The Divine Masculine is the epitome of impersonal-ness. When you are in a state of deeply connecting with the transcendental, you are moved beyond the circumstances and events of your manifest world. It then becomes natural to not relate to things in a personal way. There is a level of impersonal-ness or detachment to everything, including to yourself. This will often be accompanied by feelings of peace, freedom, and a sense of mental clarity as to how to engage your circumstance or what actions to take. This can be quite helpful in dealing with situations that are emotionally charged or button-pushing in some way. Your reactions to such circumstances can cause you to lose your connection to the transcendental, or what you might call the big picture. In such instances, a reminder to “not take things personally” can be helpful.
However, to truly not take things personally includes not taking yourself personally. It’s not meant to be understood as “what others do is about them and not me.” It’s meant to be used as a support for moving you into reconnecting with the transcendental position relative to the other person and yourself.
Simultaneous with the possibility of relating to things from the transcendental position is another option that is equally true, which is to say that every circumstance is both about you and the other person. This is because of what you might call “the law of manifestation”: that everyone is creating everything in their experience. If you are having the experience of someone else doing something, you both have created that because you both are experiencing it. This is the Feminine aspect of the Divine, because it involves being in relationship to everything in manifestation. You could say that this aspect of the Divine is completely personal, because you personally have created everything in your experience.
This is an example of how both the Divine Feminine and Masculine are simultaneously true. They may seem to be in conflict with each other from your third-dimensional point of view, but that is not actually the case. They are the ultimate complements.
The whole picture is that everything is really about you, because you manifested it and because everything is really one, including all of manifestation and manifest experience. At the same time, nothing is about you, because your true reality transcends all of this. Both are true. Always. To deny one or the other is to miss the point. To hold both at the same time is to be whole. It is a paradox and it is to be lived. Through the living, you will come to know the truth of it.
Taking everything as personal by taking full responsibility for everything leads to love and compassion and forgiveness and growth. Taking nothing as personal leads to peace, freedom, truth, and growth. The beauty of the Masculine and Feminine is that they love each other and are in complete union with each other in God. This is a model for how humans in your world can be in love with both aspects and embrace both aspects. That will serve your wholeness and expedite your growth more than anything else.
There has been harm done by only holding one or the other of these without a complete understanding of what it truly means, or without holding it in union with the other. Holding the idea of not taking things personally has been used as a way of separating oneself from others, and thus withholding love and compassion. This has been counterproductive to your spiritual growth. Similarly, holding the idea of people being 100% responsible for their reality has been used to blame others for their experience, which also blocks love and compassion. This has also been counterproductive to your spiritual growth.
Use these principles with care. They are guidelines for something you will come to realize, not ideas with which to insulate yourself or separate you from others. The result of these principles should be greater love compassion, consciousness, peace and freedom. If that’s not the result, you probably are not fully understanding them and they are not benefiting you.
I hope this has been helpful. I love you all so very much and deeply appreciate your sincerity of care and devotion to your spiritual growth and understanding.
With great love and blessings,
I AM Mary Magdalene
