Question: In Mary Magdalene Beckons, Mary points out how we learn to blame others and that most of us learned we could receive love from our parents if we were “right,” but we would be denied love when we were “wrong.”  As a parent of a young child, I would like to know if Mary has any tips for guiding one’s child and helping them learn how to listen, be respectful, make safe choices, be honest, etc. without conditioning them with “right vs. wrong.”

Mary Magdalene: Hello my dear one. Thank you for asking this question. I believe it is a most important one, which will benefit many.

Your question goes right to the heart of what underlies the third-dimensional consciousness. In the third dimension, there are a few primary assumptions or beliefs that support, and actually create, your reality. The third dimension has been described as a place of duality, where things tend to be viewed in terms of opposites. One of the most fundamental forms that duality takes in the third dimension is in the form of a moralistic judgment, which is often communicated as “good vs. bad,” “right vs. wrong,” “good vs. evil or sin,” etc. As with many things, there is a seed of truth in these ideas or ways of seeing reality. The truth that’s contained in it is that human beings are in a process of spiritual evolution in which they are growing and transforming so as to become more and more unified with God. It could be said that anything which brings you closer to God is “good” or “right” and anything which separates you from God is “bad” or “wrong.”

But you may notice those words, especially in their negative form of “bad,” “wrong,” evil,” or “sin,” carry a charge for most people. It is a charge that signifies that you are bad, wrong, evil, or sinful. It is the charge of shame, that there is something the matter with you, as opposed to simply viewing an action as something that separated you from God. And along with this shame, there also tends to be a sense that you may be punished, even if the punishment is simply being excluded or shunned (which actually is not simple or minor at all).

Most of this sense of shame and fear of punishment stems from childhood, where children were rewarded with love and affection if they did what their parents or caregivers wanted, along with being told at those times that they were good or were doing the right thing. At other times, children were punished for not doing what the parents wanted, and simultaneously told that they were bad or had done something wrong. This kind of training teaches individuals, from an extremely young and impressionable age, that doing what their parents (or caregivers) want is good or right and will bring them love, while doing what their caregivers don’t want is bad or wrong and will bring them punishment and exclusion from love.

There are several results from this. One is that you are teaching a child to submit to authority as a way of being loved. In so doing, you are setting the child up for a lifetime of focusing on pleasing others, rather than being connected to themselves and their own internal guidance. This is a great disservice to individual’s spiritual growth, as inner guidance is essential for spiritual development. It also creates societies where people are easily manipulated and disempowered, because they have been trained to give their power away to others, even to follow others rather blindly, in order to get their needs met.

Some parents have realized the problems in this system of raising children to be obedient and have chosen another path of letting the children make their own choices without parental influence. This is also a disadvantage to the child, because children need the help and guidance of adults to grow up strong, whole, and sensitive to themselves and others.

There is another way. To do this, a parent must become aware of a few things. The first is that you must release any clinging you have to the concepts of right vs. wrong and good vs. bad. You must realize that there is no such thing as absolute right or wrong, absolute good or bad. You may have been taught as a child that absolute or extrinsic good/bad and right/wrong existed, but it was simply a method your parents used to train you, very likely based in the training that they received. This training of right/wrong or good/bad was probably reinforced by religion, schooling, the legal system, the business world, and most of the structures in your world, which all have a vested interest in getting others to do what they want.

So you, as an adult and parent, must first give up the belief that things are good or bad, right or wrong, and that someone, or some group of people, really do know what is good/bad or right/wrong. In fact, those are just opinions, though they might be held by many people. There is no extrinsic good/bad or right/wrong. Those concepts are simply utilized to try to persuade others to do what someone wants.

Does giving up these concepts mean that people are free to do whatever they want? Yes, it does. In fact, people have always been free to do whatever they wanted, but most people have not realized this. They have been convinced to do what others want out of fear of being wrong or bad, and thus losing the love of others, as well as potentially having other punishments imposed.

However, being free to do whatever you want is not the same thing as saying there are no consequences to what you do. In fact, there are always consequences to whatever you do. There are consequences for yourself and often there are consequences for others. You live in an interdependent world, where most of what you do affects others.

When individuals stop being motivated on the basis of good/bad or right/wrong, they then have the possibility of being motivated by the reality of what the consequences of their actions are. This is true of adults, as well as children. If you are a parent, you can guide your child by helping them understand the consequences of their actions. And the best way to do this is without adding any blame or shame to your communications to the child.

Thus, if a young child says something that’s not true, instead of telling them that’s wrong or bad to “tell a lie,” begin by telling them your feelings. In this example, you might say that you feel disturbed. Follow that up with why you feel disturbed—perhaps because you want to trust the child. The “why” behind your feelings will always point to one of your inner divine quality that’s not fulfilled by what the child said or did. In this case, it’s the inner divine quality of trust.

Essentially, you’re teaching the child about the beautiful inner divine qualities that live inside of him or her. You’re doing this by helping them understand your own inner divine qualities, how precious they are to you, and how they’re affected by the actions of others. In this example, you’re valuing your own inner divine qualities of honesty and trust, and sharing your love of honesty and trust with your child.

In order to avoid having the child end up feeling some sense of shame, you must take it a step further. You must find out why the child chose to say what they said. Every action is always motivated by one or more of our inner divine qualities. What beautiful quality was the child trying to fulfill through this action? Were they wanting love? Emotional safety? Inclusion? Fun? Exploration? You must find out. Usually with a child, you must make a guess and then ask them if that’s right. You will know when you find the real motivation, the actual inner divine quality that was motivating the child, because the child’s light will grow brighter. And your heart will open to the child.

When you find out the inner divine quality that was motivating the child, affirm that that quality is a beautiful thing, something that you value, too. This will remove any sense of shame from the child’s choice. Then go on to help the child understand that the action they chose to fulfill that quality (perhaps telling an untruth to fulfill their inner divine quality of receiving love) wasn’t the best choice because there were other inner divine qualities it didn’t fulfill (your inner divine qualities of honesty and trust). Show them how they could have made other choices to fulfill their desire for love, such as asking for physical affection or attention.

Of course you won’t use the words “inner divine quality” with children, because that would be too abstract for them. You will put it in simple words, such as “Were you wanting love and attention?” or “That way of getting love was disturbing for me because I value honesty and being able to trust you.” Then you can end with suggestions for the future, such as “Next time, maybe you could whisper in my ear that you’re needing some love. How does that sound?”

In doing this, you’re raising children to be connected to themselves and their inner divinity, as well as others and the divinity of others. It is a great gift to children to receive this training at a young age. You will help them to become both loving and strong.

I hope this has been helpful to you. I value your caring for your child and your desire to raise him in the best way possible. It is a great gift to the whole earth to do so.

With fullest heart blessings,

I AM Mary Magdalene

An Excerpt From Mary Magdalene Beckons
By Mercedes Kirkel

Dear one,

Today I will talk to you of pain. It is something I know much about. Many of you are very confused about pain and how to respond to it. You’re even confused about why there is pain. So I would like to clarify this.

Your pain is given to you to help you grow. Do you believe this? It is a difficult medicine. The pain is actually the medicine. When you have pain, it is telling you that there is some way that you have closed off from God. If you only seek to make the pain go away, then you will not receive the help you are being given for you to change, heal, and grow. Most of your responses to pain are about making it go away—taking a medicine or drug, numbing yourself with distractions, diverting yourself by blaming others or some situation, or trying to “fix” it so that you don’t have to feel the pain.

It’s not that you have to stay in the pain. But if you just try to get rid of the pain, you won’t receive the benefit. So there is another way.

When you are in pain, you must turn to God. That is, for many of you, a hard thing to do. You think that the pain is proof that God has deserted you. In fact, God is calling to you through the pain. God loves you and wants to help you, and pain is one avenue.

So, when you feel pain, turn to God. You may need a spiritual friend to help you in that moment if it is too hard for you to turn in the midst of pain. It is a good time to call on your strongest spiritual friend who will help you turn to God.

However you do it, through prayer or asking for help from another or meditating, turn to God first. Ask God to help you. Ask all your angels, Spirit helpers, and beings of light you’re connected to, to help you. Ask them to work with the situation. Ask them to connect with the Christ consciousness of the other people involved and to help you connect with Christ consciousness. Ask your Spirit helpers to connect with the Spirit helpers of any other beings involved. Ask for the highest outcome for all involved. Ask that, “Thy will be done,” which is a way of inviting the highest beings to be involved for the good of all. Ask that Christ consciousness be infused into the situation and that it alter the events in whatever way is for the best for all. Ask until you feel yourself let go. That is surrender. You will know it because you come to peace.

Ask to be guided as to what you should do. Then your actions will come from your connection to Christ consciousness, from your surrender and peace. You may do things you would never have thought of otherwise because your creativity has been opened up through your connection to Source. You are being infused with higher ideas. You might be guided to do what you would have done before you turned to God, but you will be doing it from a different place, from a place of peace and surrender.

Do this as often as you need to when you are in pain—physical pain or emotional pain. You might feel the surrender and peace for a while and then slip back into your old way of thinking—fearing the pain and worrying about what’s going to happen, perhaps feeling angry about what you think are the causes of the pain, maybe even angry about life or angry at God. “It’s not fair. Why me? What did I do to deserve this?” And so on. All of that is a sign that you’ve slipped back into your little mind, where you’re not connected to God. Then you need to take another step: go back to prayer, to meditation, to asking for help from someone stronger in that moment, to asking for help from God.

Asking is so important. We respect your free will. Even though we want to help you, we will not step in until you ask. We ask the same of you with others. Respect their free will. This can be difficult if you perceive that they are in pain and you want to help them. Or perhaps you judge that they’re doing things wrong, that they should be doing things differently, and that you should correct them or step in and change things for them, tell them what to do. You do not know what the divine plan for them is. You might be interfering with a grand opportunity that they are receiving. It is essential that you respect their free choice.

Of course, if you are a parent, you are in a position of making decisions for your children, but only to the point that they are not capable. It is very important that you be aware of what they are capable of deciding and respect their choices in these arenas. As they grow, allow them to participate more and more in making choices with you, guiding them in learning how to make choices that are for the best for all. And as you see them capable of making their own choices, allow them to do so.

Free choice is a divine attribute that you on Earth have been given, and respecting it is part of being aligned to the Divine. If you think someone is hurting you or someone else, first turn to prayer, asking the beings of light to shift the scenario for the highest good of all. Ask them to work with the beings of light that are connected to all involved. Ask them to guide you and everyone else to be in alignment with Christ consciousness. When your heart is open and you have come to peace, then you can wait to receive guidance on what you should do. You will know it is guidance if it sustains your peace and keeps your heart open.

You are not alone. You are never alone. This is the greatest challenge for human beings to learn. It is the challenge of having been born as a seemingly separate individual. We are here with you always. Just call upon us, and we are here. We are powerful and we are for your highest good.

I love you, and my heart is with you.

I AM Mary Magdalene

Question: I would like more insight into the area of illness. As a holistic practitioner, I have been exploring “soul illness” to see if I could find an explanation and/or cause for previously unexplained health issues. Can you help me to understand this?

Mary Magdalene: Hello to the dear one who asked this question and also to all who will be receiving my response. I am here and I offer you my blessings and love, as always.

The area of illness is a challenging one for many people on Earth. It is also a broad topic, as there are many reasons as to why someone may be ill. Once again, I will do my best to bring clarity to this topic.

To begin, I want to acknowledge that illness is a difficult condition that many experience. It is part of what makes Earth such a challenging place. There are many ways that people can suffer on the Earth, and illness is one of them. For most people, suffering is an intrinsic part of life on Earth. Feeling physical pain, unwellness, lack of full vitality, or diminished ability to function in one or more areas are some of the components of illness that make it challenging. I do not in any way wish to diminish that people experience hardship as part of illness, sometimes extreme hardship.

People also experience emotional pain with illness. There can be fear of death; frustration and sadness about not being able to participate in life in the way you are wanting or were hoping to do; fear of how you will manage and provide for your life needs and responsibilities; etc. So this is another component of pain that often accompanies illness.

Many people in your world today try to maintain a “positive” attitude in the midst of challenges such as illness. This can be because they are in denial and afraid of facing what’s going on with them. It might be because they don’t want to burden others with their hardship. Or it might be that they believe this is a more emotionally mature or spiritually advanced disposition toward suffering. I do not support any of these dispositions or beliefs. I believe that the most supportive orientation, for all involved, is to honestly and openly acknowledge your experience, especially your emotional experience.

Some people are so used to denying their emotional experience, that they may find it quite difficult to even be aware that they are having a painful experience. In such circumstances, coming to awareness of one’s own pain may be an accomplishment unto itself. This can be one reason why a person may be experiencing great pain or suffering in their life. They may need a very exaggerated or extreme circumstance to get them to finally become aware that they are in pain or suffering. This awareness is essential. It is not a form of being a “baby,” a “wimp,” a “complainer,” or anything like that. It is the first essential step to engaging the spiritual process with any challenge—in this case illness.

The second step, after becoming aware that you are experiencing difficulty or suffering, is to open yourself to it fully. I call this embracing the difficulty. This often will include communicating honestly to others what your experience is and the feelings you are having about it. This kind of communication can be difficult. Perhaps you will feel that you are failing in some way if you communicate your challenges to others. Perhaps others will react in ways you may not want or enjoy. They may be in denial and may try to talk you out of your pain and suffering. Or they may immediately try to fix your situation to make it go away—partly to contribute to you and partly to ease their own discomfort in hearing that you are in pain. This kind of “fixing” can include trying to analyze the source or cause; trying to reassure you; trying to distract you; or trying to find a solution. All of these things are not really helpful as a response. This may come as a surprise to those who are offering solutions that they believe might “fix” the problem. But this orientation is generally coming from a wrong orientation to the problem.

Difficulties in your life are always forms of spiritual gifts. If they are major difficulties, they are generally things you have chosen in the pre-life process as part of the experiences you will have in this lifetime to support your growth. Sometimes people refer to this as karma, but it is important to understand that it is not a form of punishment for your past-life deeds. It is always for your growth. If in a past life you caused others pain, you may need to experience pain in this lifetime, not as punishment, but to deeply understand the nature of pain and to choose in the future not to create pain for others. This would grow you in compassion and care for others. This is just one example of how a present-life circumstance can relate to past-life experiences.

A present-life difficulty does not always indicate that you caused difficulties for others in a previous life. It might be supporting you in other ways in your soul growth. Perhaps it is supporting you in opening to others and receiving their help. Perhaps it is supporting you in learning to value your relationships more than possessions or accomplishments in the physical world. There could be many diverse reasons why a difficult circumstance is helping you in some particular way in your soul growth.

The important thing is that you do not require knowledge of your past-life circumstances to accomplish the growth you are being called to. Everything you need is being given to you. The key to unlocking all of your resources is in your emotions, not in your mind. Once you become aware of your emotions, you can allow them to guide you to the lessons and growth you are needing. I have described this process many times and will describe it here again as a reminder.

I would like to use your recent illness, Mercedes, as an example. When people heard that you were ill, several who are healers and tuned into your energy body reported that they felt your illness was connected to fear. At first you did not think this was the case, as you were not aware of any fear you were experiencing. Then you connected with me and I gave you the message about the roots of your disturbance with your father’s medical care and choices that were being made about that. I talked about how you were experiencing anger, which was covering over deeper feelings of fear and sadness. You were feeling sad and powerless about providing the care you wanted for your father. At a deeper level, you were feeling afraid about losing your connection to father and inclusion in his life.

Several days after receiving the message from me, you connected your feelings about your father’s situation to your illness. You realized that the illness was really about your fear of losing your closeness and sense of family with your father. You weren’t aware of this fear and allowing yourself to do the work you needed to do relative to this, so you required an illness to bring it to your awareness. As soon as you became of aware of your fear and it’s roots within yourself of needing family and inclusion, you started to get well. You no longer required the illness to connect you with your next step of soul healing and growth. You were now doing this healing and growth within yourself, which is where all healing and growth truly happens.

In this circumstance, you reconnected within yourself to your inner divine qualities of family and inclusion. Really, the reconnection is always to God, but it happens in the form of the particular qualities in which you previously felt disconnected. When you connected to God, you felt full in the areas of family and inclusion. You actually felt full in all areas, but these were the two specific areas that had become disconnected in this scenario. It is as though two of your circuit breakers in your connection to God got disconnected. Through your awareness and opening to the feelings, and then following them to their source within yourself of the inner divine qualities that had become unfulfilled, you found where the circuit breakers were disconnected. The wonderful thing is that as soon as you find the disconnection, it is very easy to reconnect.

Once you’ve located the problem – the inner divine qualities that feel deficient or lacking in this situation—you can shift your awareness into your knowingness of these qualities in their fullness. You have the ability to know them that way because all of us “know” these qualities in their fullness. It is part of what constitutes the inner divinity that we all have. As you remember the qualities in their wholeness , you are doing what is necessary to reconnect those circuits and reestablish your wholeness of connection with God. It is that simple, yet it is completely profound and radically changes your relationship to the whole circumstance you’re involved in.

In your case, once you reconnected to your inner divine qualities of family and inclusion, in their already-fulfilled state, you came to great peace. You stopped being angry at the person who was making decisions you didn’t like and you came into acceptance and trust. When you had a conversation with that individual a few days later, you were in a state of peace and openness. You didn’t feel in conflict anymore and were able to see that everything was working out fine. Because of this, you had closeness and connection with that person, which fulfilled your needs for family and inclusion—but in a different form than the one you were clinging to previously.

Your symptoms also started to dramatically improve at that point and you started to feel much better very quickly, returning to the state of energy and well-being that you are used to. The illness was no longer necessary because the work had been accomplished.

Not all illness will clear as quickly and easily as yours did, though it might. Every circumstance is different, depending on the very unique and personal lessons that individual is seeking through their illness. Again, this is not a form of punishment. It is a form of growth, albeit a challenging one.

The souls who have chosen to incarnate in your realm are very brave ones, for your realm is a very difficult one, which supports great growth through challenging experiences. But it requires your active participation to do so.

The last thing I wish to say is that the process I am recommending requires awareness, which is quite different from analysis and rational thought. Awareness is more of a feeling-based disposition that allows one to remain open and focused, so that you can receive input about whatever experience is currently taking place. The knowledge, insight, or understanding you require will be given to you. It often feels like an “ah-ha” moment, a breakthrough, and is generally not accomplished through the rational/thinking mind. It is given at a higher level, through your higher mind. Relaxing the rational/thinking mind, as is done in meditation, can support the process of awareness and open your being to receive the wisdom and understanding you require from your higher mind.

There is a chart of the inner divine qualities in the book, Mary Magdalene Beckons, which can be helpful to use in connecting with the inner divine qualities that are the key to any particular circumstance you are working with. Reviewing this chart can help you to identify which inner divine qualities are specifically involved in any circumstance. Again, do not use your thinking–mind to try to analyze or figure out which qualities are the ones involved. Instead, use your awareness in a spacious way to see which one you respond to with an emphatic “Yes, that’s it!” response. You will often feel this response in your body, emotions, or intuition. Eventually, as you become familiar with this process of identifying the inner divine qualities involved and come to know your own inner divine qualities, you will not require the chart. You will have internalized your own awareness of your inner divine qualities and will be able to identify them and connect with them directly through your inner healing and growth process. Giving labels to the various inner divine qualities is simply a support for guiding you in reconnecting with them, thereby allowing you to return to a state of greater wholeness and connection with God.

I love you most fully and bless you in your growth, healing, and understanding.

I AM Mary Magdalene

[Note from Mercedes: This is a personal message Mary gave to me. My father has been recovering from surgery and I was feeling upset about not being included in some decisions relative to his circumstances and care.]

Blessings dear one. This is Mary Magdalene. You are disturbed about what is happening with your father and you are questioning what you have done to create this disturbance, wondering what it is that you are not seeing, and considering how this current situation is what you require for your growth.

These are all very valuable questions. I will do my best to support you with understanding your part in what is happening.

You are about to make a major life change by moving to a distant location. This kind of change affects everyone who has a relationship with you. And it affects your relating to those with whom you are connected, also. That is a great deal of what is happening.

Oftentimes when someone is leaving, there is grief that comes up for those who are connected to that person. This usually begins soon after learning that the person is leaving and can intensify as the departure approaches, especially if the grief is not brought out into the open and discussed by all those involved.

There are two ways that many people have learned to cope with grief, which are really both ways of avoiding the feeling of grief. One is to start to disconnect and remove oneself from the person who is leaving, even before they’re gone. This is a way of protecting oneself. The one who is remaining puts up a psychic wall of separation, which is a way of trying to not feel the pain. The problem with this is that the pain is still there; it’s just covered over by a new layer of defensiveness. The person may be acting as though they don’t need you or don’t want to be involved with you. In truth, the very fact that they’re doing that shows how deeply they are affected by the upcoming loss of their closeness with you.

The second way that people often cope with grief, which again is a form of not feeling the grief, is to get angry with the other person. Often this will manifest as “building a case” against them. Suddenly your feelings toward the other person change and you feel upset about one or more things with this person. Often these are things that weren’t disturbing you in the past, but suddenly become unbearable. This is another way of distancing yourself and creating psychic separation.

If you find yourself or others doing either of these things—suddenly becoming much more angry with the other person or suddenly distancing yourself—you will often find that it’s covering up feelings of hurt. And usually the hurt is not directly related to the issues involved in the anger or the separation, though it may be indirectly related.

In the circumstance that you’re in, both parties are feeling hurt. Your hurt is that you’re worried about your dad not having the care you would like him to have, both in terms of his physical care and handling his physical needs, but also at the emotional and social level. You are very competent at the emotional level, and because of this you’re also able to relate socially very well to your father and the other people he lives with who are older and sick. You are worried that your father’s emotional and social needs won’t get met the way that you would like if you are no longer with him as often as you have been for the last few years.

You are also worried about your dad’s physical care. Your anger is a cover-up for your pain of anticipating that your father’s quality of life will be diminished when you leave.

This is a control issue. You are trying to make things go the way you want them to, the way that you believe they “should” go. But this choice is not really yours to make. It was your father’s choice to be in this situation. You are trying to save him from his choices and it’s not working. In the process you are disturbing yourself and others.

You must come to accept and respect your father’s choices. Your father chose to put his current wife in charge of all aspects of his life. This was more than a choice in this lifetime. This was a choice that was made before he came into this life, in his pre-life state. It was a soul-level choice. In fact, he is still making this choice. Even though he has some level of decline in his mental functioning, he is still choosing to be most closely related to his wife and to trust her to make decisions for him. Even though he complains about some of her choices to you, this doesn’t change the fact that he is continuing to choose to put her in charge of his life.

This is something you must come to accept. He did not choose you. There is pain for you in this, which relates to pain from your childhood about wanting your father to choose you in certain ways and him making other choices. So there is healing for you to do relative to this.

The first step is to come into acceptance of reality. Your father is not choosing you in the way that you would like. You are not in charge of this situation. His wife is in charge and she is making decisions that are different from the ones you would like. All of that must be accepted. It must be accepted in a very deep way, so that your acceptance leads you to the underlying feelings that your resistance and anger are covering over.

Underneath your resistance and anger are great pain—pain that you can’t have the kind of life you would like with your father. Pain from when you were a child that your father didn’t choose you and your family in the way you wanted—and even needed. Instead he chose other things, such as work and keeping busy when he was at home. You have pain that your father left your mother and went on to two other wives, both of whom you didn’t have the same feeling of closeness and family with that you had with your mother. And now you have pain in this present circumstance that’s really a continuation of the old pain, wanting the closeness and family that you never had.

So you are bringing your baggage into this circumstance and you are not aware that you are doing so. You are being given this circumstance so that you can become aware of this baggage and heal it. The path to healing and to growth, as I have described before, is to open to the feeling, which in this case is your pain. Once you’ve opened to the pain, you must let the pain take you to its source within yourself. The source will be found in one or more of your inner divine qualities that are not being fulfilled.

In this circumstance, you are in pain because you want family and inclusion for yourself, and you want family and care for your dad. Do you see how this is related to your moving? By choosing to move away, you are worried that your dad won’t have family and care. You’re also sad that you won’t have family in the way you’ve known with your dad over the last few years, and worried you won’t be included in decisions about his life.

You must grieve. You must grieve that you don’t have the kind of family and inclusion you would like with your father. You must grieve that your father doesn’t have the kind of family and care you would like. How do you grieve? You grieve by feeling how important these things are to you: family, inclusion, and care. Let yourself feel the pain of not having them fulfilled in this circumstance. Do not try to run away from that pain or escape it through anger or separation. Let yourself feel the pain as much and as long as you need to, without deflecting it outward away from yourself, and without blaming yourself or others. Just feel. As soon as you feel ready, take the next step, which is to focus on the inner divine qualities themselves.

Focus on the pure qualities of family, inclusion, and care as these qualities live within yourself, in their wholeness. This is where the real healing will happen, because this is the true source of your pain. You have an internal weakness within yourself relative to your connection to family, inclusion, and care. This is in doubt or in question within yourself. The external situation is merely reflecting your own internal weakness back to yourself. This is where the real healing and growth will occur.

Let yourself feel how much you value the qualities of family, inclusion, and care. Let yourself grieve any feelings of sadness that may arise about these not being fulfilled for you, either in the present or the past. As soon as that grief subsides, let yourself return to the inner divine qualities themselves, as you know them in their wholeness. If you didn’t know the pure qualities of family, inclusion, and care, you wouldn’t feel sad at their loss or deficit. The fact that you’re upset about these qualities not being fulfilled is evidence that you know what it is for them to be fulfilled. So let yourself go into your own inner connection with the qualities of family, inclusion, and care as they live within you, in their already fulfilled state.

When you do this, you will notice that a shift takes place. You come to peace. You are being returned to your own wholeness, which is truly your wholeness in God. This is the work you must do within yourself for your own healing and growth. The “problem” is not outside of you. It is within you. You sensed this when you asked your initial questions about what you have done to create the circumstance you’re experiencing. You have called in this circumstance for your own healing, so that you could do this work and strengthen your own inner connections to family, inclusion, and care. When you have done the work, you then know yourself once again as whole and connected in these arenas. What has actually happened is that you have reconnected to your ultimate family of guides and soul family and God; you have reconnected to being included in the oneness of life; and you have reconnected to the care that God always has for you.

You are feeling this now, aren’t you? The shift in you is obvious. Now you can face the outer situation, because you will be coming from your wholeness and not your woundedness. Now you will have compassion for others, including understanding and awareness of what’s underneath their protective strategies, which is their woundedness and pain. And you will have clarity about what is best for you and for all. You will no longer try to control the situation. You will allow all to have their choices and you will respect those choices. You will trust that they are receiving the opportunities for their healing and growth, just as you are.

I love you, dear one, and I appreciate all the work and intention you put into your growth. You are a shining example of a being who is dedicated to their soul purpose and spiritual unfoldment, and I honor you for that.

In greatest love,

I AM Mary Magdalene

Question: How do I expand my receptivity and openness to greater financial abundance? I want to allow the flow of abundance, so that my struggle or constricted energy in relation to abundance can be gone and I can be free to put my energy into the work I do, rather than still having my focus on living in the physical world and supporting myself.

Mary Magdalene: As I imagine you are well aware, this is a challenge for many people who are dedicated light-workers on the Earth at this time.

There is a notion that is common in your world today that you are the creator of your reality and you can create the abundance that you want. Part of this belief is that if you are not experiencing abundance, it represents some blockage within yourself—which may be a mental blockage, a blockage based in your beliefs, or an emotional blockage. That is the idea that many people are proposing at this time.

Like many ideas, there is an aspect of truth and accuracy to this. Many people who are drawn to be light-workers do have blocks within themselves relative to abundance. Some of this is oftentimes an overlay from a past life. It can be a past life on Earth where you made a vow of not being abundant, because it was held that abundance was not part of the spiritual life. So you took on ideas and beliefs that to be spiritual meant being poor, impoverished, not being involved with receiving money and worldly goods. Sometimes this is affecting people.

But oftentimes it is a much deeper reason that is affecting people. It can be a personal reason, involving purifying something that has to do with you personally or learning about money in a certain way. These experiences of struggling and not having enough may be supporting you in that process, either through learning more about abundance and energy exchange, or perhaps supporting something very personal for you in your relationship to abundance and energy exchange. So there can be many personal reasons. But there are also larger reasons that are not broadly understood by people at this time.

Many of the people who are light-workers have soul-level memories and experiences of a different kind of abundance. This does not involve money. It does not involve being compensated for your work the way most people experience on the Earth. It involves a sharing of the Earth’s resources and supporting everyone on the Earth. At the soul level, those who are most awakened are not only those who remember this, but also those who are drawn to this higher level of abundance. This is an abundance that includes everyone, where no one is struggling to survive or anxious about their survival in any way, where everyone is supported for as long as they are choosing to be on Earth.

In fact, that is the way that it always works. Everyone is supported for as long as they are choosing to be here on Earth. But most people at the Earth level don’t recognize this. Even the more advanced spiritual souls, who we often call light-workers or light-beings, are not necessarily at the point yet where they are aware of this. So it is an interesting play because your survival is truly guaranteed. Yet when you are not aware of this, you may feel anxious about your survival. And that anxiousness may be blocking your receptivity with ease of, not just your survival, but all of your life-level needs. When you relax and start to trust that all of those needs will be provided, you are completely open to what’s already the case. They are provided because you are doing your soul-level work and you are meant to be here.

What most people don’t realize is that as long as you are doing your soul-level work, you will be supported. Your soul design is to do your spiritual work. And part of that spiritual work is to contribute, both to yourself and to the whole.

Truly, what human beings are moving into is a very different understanding of how life works altogether and what abundance is. Abundance is really opening yourself to receive everything that you are always being given so that you can do your spiritual work. True abundance only happens when that is the case for everyone. No one is truly abundant when there are those who are in need or in doubt as to whether their needs will be provided.

So the concept of abundance as a strictly individual matter is, in some ways, contrary to this greater abundance that humans are all moving toward. At the soul level, light-workers often find themselves somewhat torn or pulled in different directions, because their soul is aware of this movement toward this greater abundance and that is where they truly want to go. Yet they are in a physical circumstance and in their own spiritual evolution, where they oftentimes are not fully aware of all of the spiritual principles they are moving into. So in this very human circumstance, there is an awareness of needing to support oneself, as this greater spiritual principle has not yet been realized.

For humans like yourself, especially the ones who are more aware and are further along in this spiritual evolution that all humans are in the process of, it’s a bit of a dance because you’re somewhat betwixt and between. It is required that you still support yourself at the human level because this transition hasn’t yet been made on the broad scale for everyone. But it’s also true that you are absolutely supported and will be as long as it’s your time to be here, which is ultimately your soul’s choice. Some of your work while you’re here is to explore these different aspects of limitation, including financial limitation, that create your third dimension.

The best way I can suggest to approach this is with deep trust and love. Trust in the divine spirit that is in charge of all, love yourself and others, and bring as much humor and lightness as you can to it, as though it were a game in some ways. In some ways, that’s exactly what it is. It is a theatre, a game, however you want to look at it, for your growth. These lessons around abundance are truly lessons in greater surrender and greater letting go, much more than the practice that is popular today of trying to create abundance in a mental way. In some ways, that’s just a higher frequency or higher plane of trying to create abundance in a physical way. Both work, and there is truth to both of them. But neither one is where you are ultimately headed.

Where you are ultimately headed is into this profound trust and love of God, doing your work as you are guided and allowing yourself to be supported in the midst of that. If there are instances where you feel nervous or anxious about “Will I have enough, will I be supported?”, allow yourself to use that as a kind of housecleaning, a light shining on you to show you the areas where you can open to greater trust of God and turning it over to God.

Question: Is there something more I can do to attract the people I’m meant to assist in this lifetime?

Mary Magdalene: Absolutely. It is so simple: pray. Pray and ask for guidance. Ask for clarity. Ask for the people to be drawn to you, and for you to know and recognize whatever you need to do for that to be so. Ask for this to be supported, for it to happen easefully, and that it is for your highest good and the highest good of all. If that is your heart’s intention, that is absolutely what will happen.

Question: Can you help me understand the individual connection I feel with you (Mary Magdalene) and Yeshua? I know we’re all connected, but this feels deeper than that. I don’t know if it’s my ego or if there is something more there.

Mary Magdalene: This is not something to question. It is real.

The physics of how these things work are quite complex, as you may already be aware. There are many levels of connection that beings can experience. Most often, with the type of connection I believe you’re talking about, this is a soul-level connection. You are part of a soul cluster and you are recognizing that. That is a beautiful and valuable thing to recognize and acknowledge.

Sadly, in your world there is oftentimes a discounting of the feelings that inform you of these kinds of connections. But truly, in your heart and in your higher self, you know if those feelings are true or not. The feelings that you are having are real. You will come to understand that more.

At the higher levels, souls come together in a very unified way, which is hard to explain to someone who is primarily experiencing the third dimension. At these higher levels, you still have a sense of your own soul connection. But depending on the level in which you are coming together, your unified field can be stronger. It may be more of the way you identify yourself, rather than through your individual soul nature. These unified groupings are soul families and soul groups.

There can be many beings who share this unified field and consciousness, and really, this unified being-ness. This is why there can be a number of people who say, “I feel like I was a particular being.” There are different explanations for this. It could have occurred as you actually being that individual soul. It could have occurred as you being connected through the physical realm—through ancestry—to that soul. It could have been through you having known that soul, being incarnated at the same time as that soul. But most often, most frequently, it is because you are soul family. That integration becomes a singular being at the higher levels. So there is an experience of very great . . . It’s beyond connection; it’s a oneness.

When a part of yourself opens to that, you feel this incredible, profound connection to the being who is perhaps representing that soul group or soul family, who is the archetype that is best known of that soul group in your world. You will feel a powerful identification with that being.

Ultimately you know whether this is so within yourself. At the third dimension, it can be difficult to acknowledge this kind of connection to yourself or others, because there are many beliefs that this is not so, this is not possible, that anyone claiming this is sick, or deluded, or at least inflated in their ego and off-course in the spiritual path. There are many such beliefs. But the truth rests within yourself. Within yourself, you know.

Question: Would you explain what you mean by “Your circumstances make it very clear what you need to do for your own growth”? Does it have to do with confronting one’s belief systems that underlie our feelings and thoughts?

Mary Magdalene: Hello my dear ones. It is Mary Magdalene, here to be with you again and to respond to your question. Thank you for asking this question. It is an important concept to understand, and I am most happy to clarify what I meant by that statement.

This question relates to the way that manifestation works, as part of creating your reality. Nothing that happens to you is random, even though many people in the third dimension think that life events are random. All of your experiences are things that you have chosen, at some level, for your growth. You chose some of them in your pre-birth state, when you were selecting your life experiences that would serve your next steps of growth. You have chosen some of them during your incarnation, either consciously or subconsciously. Everything is chosen. This understanding is a central part of becoming 100% responsible for your life. If you do not understand this, you tend to see yourself as a victim of circumstances or others’ actions and choices.

In the third dimension, coming to the realization that you have chosen everything in your life and are fully responsible for all the events in your life is part of your spiritual growth and awakening to higher-dimensional consciousness. If you do not yet understand this, you may have a reaction to hearing this. Perhaps you feel outraged, thinking “I would never have chosen these circumstances or events!” Perhaps you feel guilty, because you blame yourself for what has happened in your life. Or perhaps you feel depressed, thinking there must be something wrong with you, that you’re somehow defective or deficient if you’re having the experiences that you’re having. These are the most common reactions people have when they don’t yet understand what this fully means.

Awakening to the understanding that you choose everything in your life and are completely responsible for all your experiences is a huge accomplishment spiritually. Many people feel that they are responsible for their own choices and reactions, but not the choices and actions of others. Yet even this is a limited viewpoint, though certainly a step in becoming fully responsible for your life. However, the full realization of how you create reality involves accepting that everything is your creation, even the choices and actions of others. This is because you have attracted everything you experience to you, either through your pre-life choices or as a result of your choices, actions, beliefs, and emotions in this lifetime.

This means that if you are not happy with something that is happening in your life, your spiritual work is to see how you have created it and to make different choices, followed up by action. This is your path to growth. It is also your path to empowerment. If you are not responsible for what is happening in your life, then you don’t have the power to change it. You have given away your power of manifestation and creativity to others through your belief that they hold the power and not you. This is the essence of codependency. You believe that you are dependent on another to create your happiness and well-being.

When you come to fully understand and accept that you are at choice about everything and that you create your entire reality, and consequently are fully responsible for it, you become free. You are not dependent on others for your happiness or your spiritual path. You are not independent, in the sense of having nothing to do with others. You are simply free, which includes being fee to truly love. Someone who is in a codependent position cannot love freely and truly. Only a whole person can love.

Once you come to this disposition that you have chosen and created every circumstance in your life, you will see your outer circumstances as a projection of your inner reality. It is the “movie” of your psyche, animating the results of your choices for you to be able to see and become conscious of and experience your consciousness in a tangible way. It is the performance of the “play” of your life, the external dramatization of your inner consciousness. This is the reason you have come into this realm, to have this experience. When your inner consciousness gets animated outwardly through the events of your life, and you get to experience them in all the aspects of your being, then it becomes very clear what your weaknesses are and where you need to grow.

The primary communicators of this are your body and your emotions. These are the two clearest sources of information as to where you need to focus and change for your growth. Whenever you are having a physical or emotional experience that you aren’t enjoying, some kind of bodily or emotional pain, that is an indicator of an area that you need to change.

Thus, your path of growth is made obvious in the third dimension. If you become aware of your physical and emotional sensations of discomfort or pain, you will be guided to the specific areas you need to engage for your growth. When I speak of emotional pain, I am referring to what are often called “negative” emotions. I do not use that term because I do not find them negative at all. I think they are extremely beneficial, though often not easy to experience. Nonetheless, they are a great benefit to you, if you understand their function and make wise use of them.

In the book Mary Magdalene Beckons, I have spoken extensively about how to make use of painful emotions for reconnecting you to God, which is also the same as your spiritual growth. And so I recommend making use of that instruction to understand the next steps in accomplishing the spiritual growth that your experiences are directing you to.

I hope this has answered your question. I extend my love and blessings to you and all as you grow and expand in your spiritual journey.

With great heart love,

I AM Mary Magdalene
