MARY MAGDALENE: Relationships and Monogamy
An Excerpt of a Channeling
Received By Mercedes Kirkel
On June 16, 2013
Question: When talking about the deep, love-filled union that you and Yeshua achieved together, were you a monogamous couple? Is monogamy representative of a true love or sacred sexuality type of relationship?
Mary Magdalene: We were in relationship at an extremely high level. At that level, relationship is so fulfilling, it is natural to simply be with one another. At that level, we do not make these kinds of pacts or delineations that you tend to make. So it never occurred to us to define our relationship in any particular way. It was a response at the highest levels of our being to each other.
It takes wisdom to understand where these questions come from. It takes discernment to understand if your motive is coming from your most high connection to God and your calling for that, or not. It is possible to have no limit on your loving. But it is not likely, because your desire is so fulfilled in your relationship. Yet it is possible that you may have this with more than one person.
In your world, having more than one partner is generally a distraction from the work that people have to do of growing in God. It is generally not based in the very highest motives. It is often based on a disconnection from God, where there is a sense of lack in receiving the exquisite properties that are always being offered. Out of that lack, one may feel a need to find it in a different person.
Oftentimes this lack is related to wounding. It’s related to a block within the person of actually receiving the love that they seek. They may have a deep wound, and out of that wound, a deep fear of opening to a level that will cause them to experience that wound. When they begin to approach this level of depth of love with a partner, they withdraw and seek another partner. This is done to protect them from that level of intimacy that will bring up the wound. But the best thing that they could do would be to bring up that wound, so that it could be healed.
Relationship will bring up everything that is necessary for healing. This is why it is wise to be strong in yourself and in your relationship to God, before you enter into relationship with a partner. This is why, when I began to talk today, I began with those two arenas—your relationship to yourself and to God, because they form the foundation. If they are not strong, you will bring extra challenge into your relationship.
When there is challenge in relationship, the first thing to look at is your relationship to yourself, your own inner Feminine and Masculine, and your relationship to God. See if there is work to be done there and if the challenge that is being brought up is guiding you to that work, so that you may do it.
In most cases, in your world, that will be the case with people who are considering the idea of multiple partnerships. They will see that there is actually their own work to be done, which will resolve the question in their mind.
But it is a possibility that people could be in relationships with more than one partner. Yet in your world it is not likely. Most of those relationships will tend to happen at higher levels. For some people, who are greatly drawn to seeking multiple partners, it is because they remember this possibility. But it is not what they came into the third dimension to actually experience. For most people, it is complicating their lives and their spiritual work to try to create this and sustain it. For most people, expanded relationships will be found at the subtler levels, in their relationships with their guides, in their relationship with God. It will not be necessary to manifest that at the physical level with multiple partners.

MARY MAGDALENE: The Secret Meaning of the Cross
Received by Mercedes Kirkel
QUESTION: Would you speak about the meaning of the cross?
MARY MAGDALENE: Blessings to all. You have asked about the meaning of the cross, and I am happy to respond to you about this.
Many associate the cross with Jesus, who I call Yeshua, and with Christianity. The cross is associated with the crucifix and with the idea that Jesus died for your sins. There is a great deal that could be said about all of this, and I will do my best to cover as much as I can.
Many of the ideas that are currently held in your time are ideas about Yeshua that have been propagated by the Christian Church. There are many reasons why these ideas have been chosen and promoted. Not all of them have to do with things that occurred during Yeshua’s life or that were a part of his teaching. It is important to remember that the Christian church didn’t completely coalesce until several centuries after Yeshua’s life, and that it has continued to develop and change since its early beginnings. The report that the church has communicated about Yeshua’s life and the meaning behind it often has had more to do with what the church leaders were interested in than what actually occurred, or what Yeshua was teaching and wanted people to understand and receive.
I say all this because I think it is essential to put the idea of the cross in perspective. And all of this is true not only in relation to the cross, but to every aspect of Yeshua’s life and teaching. Much of what occurred and much of what he taught and wanted to transmit to people has been changed or lost over time. Because of this, you must be discerning as to what you believe and accept. Where did the ideas about Yeshua that you’ve heard come from? How do you know they are valid? How do the ideas feel to you? Do they support light and love within you? How do the people feel to you who are embracing and promoting those ideas? Do they feel full of light and love?
Remember that your feeling-sense is a much better barometer of truth than your mind. Do not be fooled by ideas if the feelings accompanying them do not uplift you. You must learn to exercise and grow your feeling-based discernment as a powerful tool for determining what is supportive to let in and what is better to discard.
Now, having laid that foundation of understanding for the context in which this is to be understood, I return to the original question about the meaning of the cross. The cross has been a symbol of many things since ancient times, long before the life of Yeshua and his crucifixion. This is why you will find it in other traditions and cultures, including those that pre-date Yeshua’s incarnation on Earth. It is a symbol of the connection between heaven and earth, or more accurately, between the divine in it’s transcendent form and manifestation on Earth. The top of the cross represents connection with the divine and the bottom of the cross represents connection with manifestion in the form of the Earth and the physical third-dimensional plane. The horizantal part of the cross represents human beings as the pivotal form on the Earth manifesting the union of the divine with third-dimensional matter.
The cross can also be seen as a representation of a human being, with the top part being the head, the horizontal part being the arms and hands, the lower part being the legs and feet, and the intersection of the vertical and horizontal being the heart. In this representation, the heart is shown to be central, that which brings everything together and out of which everything emanates. The centrality and importance of the heart was a foundational principle that underlay Yeshua’s teaching.
In your world today, the majority of people have become imbalanced with living predominantly in their head and being disconnected from and out of touch with their heart. This is a cause of a great deal of the problems you experience in your world. If you were to come back into balance and harmony with the heart beings central and primary, many of your problems would be solved. Thus, this simple symbol of the cross holds a great secret for you in your present time as to what is before you to do in order to move forward spiritually.
Relative to the crucifixion, when Yeshua was crucified, there was more than one thing that was taking place. On one level, there were those in the religious institutions of the times who wanted to eliminate Yeshua, because he was challenging their structure. He wanted people to know God as love and compassion and forgiveness, and to realize their direct connection with God. This was different from what was being put forth through the Jewish temple at that time, which presented a fierce God of punishment and required people to follow many rules and institutionalized practices in order to stay in God’s graces. Those in power did not welcome the changes Yeshua was bringing, as it threatened their power and position. So there were those within the religious institutions of the times who wanted him eliminated.
There were also those within the political system and structure who were threatened by Yeshua, especially as people started to relate to him as a king, or “king of the Jews.” There was nervousness amongst the political leaders and authorities that Yeshua would revolt against the secular government and powers. There were those amongst the Jews who wanted this and hoped that Yeshua had come to lead that kind of uprising and revolt. But that was not Yeshua’s mission or interest. He had come to show people the way of bonding with a loving God, and to be that bridge for people.
The crucifixion had another significance and role. This had to do with the popular hope amongst the Jews that a messiah would appear and deliver them spiritually from a long time of being downtrodden. This was different from the hope of those who wanted a political revolution. This was a spiritual emancipation into more blessed times. This belief was intertwined with the religious stories and mythologies of the time, many of which involved a divine ruler who died and was reborn. Through that rebirth, the blessings of the divine were brought to the people. This is a very pervasive spiritual story that can be found in many cultures. Perhaps the most prevalent at Yeshua’s time was the story of Osiris dying and being brought back to life through his wife and queen, Isis. There was an expectation in the consciousness of many people at the time that a messiah would manifest in this form. Accordingly, part of the purpose of the crucifixion was to fulfill this expectation, so that ordinary people could accept the teachings of Yeshua as true and take them in. Through fulfilling that expectation, people were able to open to Yeshua and accept him as a divine being.
The most important reason for the crucifixion, however, has largely been kept secret from people. The crucifixion was a profound process for bringing light to the Earth and implanting it within the Earth. At the time of Yeshua’s incarnation, the level of light on Earth had reached an all-time low. If the trajectory into darkness was to continue, it was likely that the Earth would not survive. Yeshua incarnated on Earth to change that. Through his own incarnation as an extremely high being of light, and through his incarnating in human form, he was able to bring a tremendous amount of light into the Earth plane. His teaching was primarily directed at instructing people how they could similarly manifest and increase the light themselves, so that the process could continue to grow through others.
Yeshua’s exoteric teaching was a very simple form of this process of increasing the light, but nonetheless very real and effective, if people truly practiced it. In essence it was all about love and the power of love. His simplest instruction – to love God with all your heart and to love everyone as yourself – was truly sufficient to continue this process of anchoring light on the Earth. There was also an esoteric teaching, for those who were ready, with more specific practices for how to do this. Those of the Essene community were especially prepared to receive and participate at this level with Yeshua, but there were others, too.
A part of the process of anchoring light into the Earth that Yeshua came to perform, was the crucifixion. This was understood by those in the inner circle around Yeshua. He knew it and we knew it. It involved him sacrificing his life-energy in a tremendous feat of spiritual work. In the crucifixion, the cross became a grid of divine energy being brought into the Earth, something like the way a tree brings the energy of light down through its extremities above the ground, going down into the Earth through its roots. It was Yeshua’s life-energy that activated this circuitry and turned the cross into a spiritual grid and conductor for divine energy to flow into the Earth and be received by the Earth. It was a literal saving of the Earth herself as a living form, charging her up like a battery with God’s light. And it changed the course of your history in Earth. It was the turning point for the return of light into your world. It has been gradual but continuous since then, and today many of you are waking up to it.
This is the true event and meaning of Easter. It was the rebirth of Earth, a literal rebirth, at profound and very high levels of spiritual transformation.
It is not accurate that “Yeshua died for your sins” in the sense that you are evil, bad, wrong, damned, or anything like that. It is also not true that the acts of another can mitigate or remove your karma, or responsibility for your spiritual path. Each soul is responsible for themselves and their own spiritual path and results. However, if you were to interpret “sin” as separation from the light, then there is an element of truth in the expression that “Yeshua died for your sins.” For he chose to give his life to perform this huge transformational act of returning the Earth to a sufficiently high quotient of light.
And so, to return to your original question, the cross is ultimately a symbol for the infusion of God’s light into the Earth, the uniting of God and matter. Yeshua was that manifestation in human form, and through his choice to undergo the crucifixion, he brought that same light into the Earth herself, to store it and share it freely with all beings of the Earth.
This is part of why it is such a tragedy that so many are choosing to damage and even destroy the Earth at this time. That must be stopped and reversed, for the Earth is your source of physical as well as spiritual sustenance, because of the light that Yeshua infused her with. You must make amends for the way that you are treating the Earth, and truly come to revere her and care for her as your most immediate spiritual source. For so she is. It is part of the return to loving the Feminine that is so necessary at this time.
Yeshua was a great lover of the Feminine. He understood and honored and loved the Feminine. Of this, I can attest. I received his love in limitless forms and amounts. And it was not limited to me. Yeshua’s love was boundless and given freely to all. He loved without limit of any kind. And he bequeathed his love to everyone through his love of the Earth, and his spiritual endowment of that love into the Earth. It is there for all in this time as well, waiting for you to receive and continue the process of raising the light on Earth. Those of you who are reading this are surely called to this purpose and are already on that path. My hope is that these words and explanation may help you to continue and go further in that process.
With great love,
I AM Mary Magdalene

MARY MAGDALENE: My Union With Yeshua In Spirit Form
Part 4 of a Message
Received by Mercedes Kirkel
On November 7, 2013
Question: I would like to ask something regarding your sacred union with Yeshua while he was in a physical vessel and also after he ascended back into his light body. I heard that when Yeshua ascended, he still came to be with you and this continued to the end of your earth life. How did you continue this physical/spiritual relationship? Was it different with Yeshua being in spirit or the same as when he was in human form? And with Yeshua in spirit form, was it possible for him to be or feel just as physically real? How did you handle having Yeshua in spirit form? How did it sustain you until you returned to the higher realms in your light body?
Mary Magdalene: I thank you for your beautiful question. I feel your love, I feel your openness, and I feel your heart so strongly in what you’re asking, and I am very happy to respond.
It is true that after Yeshua was no longer embodied in the physical plane, that I still maintained my contact with him through his light body, in many ways not different from what many of you experience through your ability to open to beings in other dimensions. And so I was able to continue my relationship with Yeshua while I was still physically embodied and manifest in the Earth plane, in the third dimension, even though he was no longer here. It is something that I could initiate or he could initiate, and we very much valued our connection with each other.
Of course, it was different than when he was physically manifested. We did not have the physical interactions that we had before. And there is something very beautiful—very, very beautiful—about the physical. It was one of the great beauties that we experienced that in our time together on Earth.
On the other hand, when connecting with a being purely through the energetic–via the ethereal or the spiritual bodies—where the physical is not involved, this has a sweetness and a beauty all unto itself. In many ways it is even more wonderful, more sublime than the physical union. Some of you have had this experience and know what it is like to have this kind of exquisite contact with another being in a higher realm.
The challenge in this form of relating is that when you are not having that experience, it is much easier to forget it, to doubt it with your mind, to wonder if it was real, and to have it fade and seem to be preempted in some ways by the density of third-dimensional reality. This is not really different from what happens for all beings in their spiritual connection and their spiritual work at the third dimension. Many of you have this experience when you do your spiritual practices, whether they are meditation, prayer, or whatever form you find that supports you in your deepest and greatest connection with God and Spirit. You will have occasions where this connection seems very strong for you. These may occur during your private, daily occasions. They may be occasions when you’re with a teacher who supports you most fully in making your connection with Spirit. It may happen on occasions where you’re with a group and the group energy supports you, occasions when you’re in nature—this can be very strong for many people; occasions when you’re doing your work and you feel so blessed and happy. Whatever it is that opens you to Spirit most fully, you have these occasions and then they come to an end, and many of you have the experience of that higher reality seeming to fade, going back into the background, and somewhat getting lost in the day-to-day experience of third-dimensional reality.
This is the challenge with relationships with loved ones when one is physically incarnated and one is not physically incarnated at that time. It takes the same thing that any spiritual work takes in the third dimension. It takes spiritual strength. It takes trust. It takes faith. It takes intention and actually doing the things that support you spiritually. You are creating a relationship. And any relationship takes a certain kind of work, a certain kind of opening. You might call this a unique form, unique to many, although there are many who are having this experience, as well. And it will continue to grow as people open more and more to the higher dimensions, and understand more and more how to be with beings in the higher dimensions.
So it is entirely possible and entirely wonderful. But in some ways you are bridging the worlds and living, you might say, with a foot in each world. There is a certain art to doing that. It can be done, but there is an ease and relaxation when both beings are spiritually present in the same world. It was a great, great, wonderful reunion when I was reunited in the higher realms at the same level with my beloved Yeshua. And we continued to enjoy that wonderful sharing. A part of that sharing is that our primary home is again in the same dimension.
I hope that that was helpful to you. I send my heart blessings to you and my great, great love. Know that love, as it manifests in any form, is a divine gift. Love with another who is manifested in another dimension is certainly no less of a gift—in some ways, even a more wonderful gift, but with its unique challenges. I bless you for whatever you are going through to be strong, to have your heart open to the blessings you are receiving, to know that there is growth in whatever the challenges are, and to have faith to draw upon and to ask for help in whatever your challenges are.
Many blessings to you, with great love. I AM Mary Magdalene.

MARY MAGDALENE: Why Evil People Flourish While Good People Suffer
Photo courtesy of Rob Irgendwer
Part Two of a Message
Received by Mercedes Kirkel
On November 7, 2013
Question: Why do evil people constantly flourish while multitudes suffer for doing nothing or for doing the morally right thing? This dynamic is grotesquely out of proportion and has been for thousands of earth years. Yet the Creator (elders) have failed to assist us in any meaningful or lasting way. Why?
Mary Magdalene: I thank you for your question. I sense your great distress—that this is something that is deeply disturbing to you and which you are really looking for help with. I will do my best to address your concerns and the issues you have raised.
There are a number of parts to this. First of all, it is very difficult to understand everything going on at the Earth level from the perspective of being incarnated on the Earth plane. There is more going on than is easily understood. Oftentimes people at the Earth, or third-dimensional level don’t see the whole picture and don’t understand everything that’s involved. It may appear, as you say, that there are evil people and they seem to be flourishing, while others—who seem very good-hearted and upholding the light—seem to be struggling, or not having the benefit of doing well and being supported. But that is not entirely what is going on.
Indeed, if you looked at Yeshua’s life or my life, you might say that we were not supported. But in fact, we came to the Earth to do very specific work and we actually did that work. Everything we did was for a purpose. It all had a reason.
At the third dimension, there is what is often called “the veil of forgetting.” Before your life, there are many events that you plan. After your life, you will look back on your life and review what occurred. At that time you will remember what your intention was in incarnating on the Earth. Everyone goes through this. Things will become much, much clearer to you at that point.
For most people, you will be in what can be called a fourth-dimensional plane after your life, just as you were before your life. Things will appear very differently at that time. You won’t tend to look at things as good or bad, or look at individuals as evil or good. You will see that everyone was serving a very specific purpose. Everyone’s experiences were not only chosen by those individuals, but were helping them to have the kind of experiences and soul growth they were seeking.
At the higher dimensions, we don’t look at things as good or bad, evil or not evil, or whatever you might call it. We look at things as all serving in different ways. This may be hard to understand, because there are very real ramifications to things at the third-dimensional level. People really do experience pain and suffering in various ways. In fact, that is part of what beings come into the third dimension to experience. But while you are here in the third dimension, it can be very difficult to have those experiences, especially if you have forgotten your connection to the greater whole, which you might call God, source, oneness, or however you understand and relate to that.
This is why spiritual growth, practice, and development is so critical. It actually is critical at all times. Ultimately, it is all that ever matters. But at the third dimension, it has its own reasons, its own logic for being important. Part of that logic is that it is the only thing that will help you to endure the difficulties that exist at the third dimension.
My suggestion to you would be to do whatever you can to grow spiritually and to strengthen that. During your Earth time, that will most likely help you to be more at peace with the apparent dualities that you experience of some people seeming more supportive of light and some people seeming less supportive, or some people seeming to have more and some people seeming to have less. Duality is the nature of the third dimension. It is actually a gift that is offered through incarnating at the third dimension. But again, it is very difficult to understand this from the third-dimensional perspective.
So it takes great, great faith to find your connection to God and to put your trust in God in the midst of such apparent hardships. In some ways, the third dimension is one of the most difficult realms to be incarnated in, because of this great challenge. Other realms have their challenges, also. But this is a particularly difficult one in many ways. It is difficult for your mind. It is difficult for your emotions. It is difficult for your physical body. So it takes dedication, perseverance, and spiritual investment to stay centered in the midst of these kinds of things.
The more you can relax your concern about what others may seem to have or what others seem to be doing that you don’t think is for the highest good—and the more you can put your attention on yourself and what you can do to be connected to your highest spiritual source, what you can do to support yourself the very most in your spiritual work, and what you can do to support others—the better off you will be. And the more you will be relieved of this burden of feeling that something is unfair or is not as it should be. In fact all is just as it is meant to be. But that is not an easy thing to accept. It takes spiritual maturity and a level of spiritual development to truly accept and even receive that with gratitude. The more you are able to do that, the more you will see your world change.
The other thing I urge you to do is to focus on what’s actually happening in your personal sphere, because that is what you have the power to change most directly through your spiritual work and spiritual manifestation. If part of what you are being informed by is media-generated news, that information often comes from people who have very different agendas. Their spiritual work may be quite, quite different from yours. It is important to have discernment so that you do not get swept up into their spiritual work. The way that you will know what is truly your work is what’s actually brought most directly into your life and what you have the power to affect. That is what I urge you to put your awareness on. Allow your own spiritual awareness, growth, work, and consciousness to make a difference in that arena. If you are able to do this, it will be of the greatest benefit to you and ultimately you will receive everything that you need.
I cannot promise that your life will be easy. If you look at my life, it was not easy in many ways. If you look at Yeshua’s life, it was not easy in many ways. What I can say is that what will serve you the most and what will fulfill you the most is your connection with God. That is true whether your life is relatively easy or not. Regardless of your circumstances, that is what will sustain you. So I urge you to connect with God as strongly as you can. If that is very difficult for you, seek out help so that you are able to connect with God. Your difficulty may be pointing to areas in which you have wounding and which you need help healing from, so that you may receive the blessings and gifts from those circumstances. There are many who are available to help. There are many who are very gifted in supporting others in their spiritual journey.
Of course, the ultimate help is through prayer. You can always pray. You can pray and ask for clarity. You can ask for understanding. You can ask for forgiveness. You can ask for peace. You can ask for guidance as to what you need to do personally. You can ask for being given whatever help you seem to require. I completely urge you to pray and ask God for help.
I hope this has been helpful to you. My heart goes out to you and I send my greatest blessings to you for your spiritual journey. With much love to you, I close now.

MARY MAGDALENE: What Is Most Critical At This Time
Part 1 of a Message
Received by Mercedes Kirkel
On September 5, 2013
Hello everyone,
This is Mary Magdalene. Thank you to all of you who are listening and all of you who will be receiving this message in the future. I am so very happy to connect with all of you.
I wish to say a little bit about myself at this point. Some of you may already know this and some of you may be less familiar with what I’m about to share. I feel like it’s important to begin from this base of understanding about me and what I am bringing through at this time.
Many of you are familiar with me as a person who was recorded in the Bible as one of the followers of Jesus. My preferred way to refer to Jesus is through the name Yeshua, which is his Aramaic name. Aramaic was the language we were speaking at the time of his and my incarnation, two thousand years ago. So I will be referring to him as Yeshua, but this is the same one that many of you know as Jesus.
My relationship with Yeshua was a very sacred relationship. Everyone who was touched by him, who was involved with him in any way, had a sacred relationship with him. I had the great, great blessing and tremendous gift to be very close to him, in fact to be in sacred relationship with him. This is something I have explained in detail in the book Mary Magdalene Beckons: Join the River of Love. This is something that was not recorded in the Bible, for various reasons. The Bible was recorded long after our lifetimes. Those who decided what would and what would not be included in the Bible had their own decisions they were making and their own purposes. As part of that, it was decided that my story would largely not be included, except in very skeletal form.
But in fact, it is the case that I was Yeshua’s partner and we were in sacred relationship together. The reason for this is quite deep, quite complex. One aspect of it is that we both had work—very, very profound and important spiritual work—that we were bringing forth. It was understood that my part of this was to bring forth what I refer to as the Divine Feminine, or the Feminine face of God. I was incarnated with Yeshua as an example and a modeling of the union of Divine Masculine and Divine Feminine, in the form of a human man and woman.
But we also understood—Yeshua and myself, and others as well—that the world at that time was not ready for this aspect of our work and the teaching that we were bringing forth—the aspect of the Divine Feminine, the aspect of sacred relationship, the aspect of God having attributes or aspects that were both Masculine and Feminine. (Another way of saying this is Father-Mother-God.) At that time, two thousand years ago, the world was not prepared for this. We understood this. Even back when we were both physically incarnated, we knew that it would be two thousand years before the world was ready. That time has come. This is the time now. Not only is the world ready to receive the divine in Feminine form, and to receive my teaching of the Divine Feminine, but the world needs this. Receiving the Divine Feminine is very crucial to your time period right now.
There are many who are aware of this. I am not the first to say this and this occasion is certainly not the first time of this being stated. Many, many people who are aware, who are conscious, and many people who are tuned into higher beings are quite cognizant of this, that this is the time of the Divine Feminine coming through and coming forth, and that this is absolutely necessary right now.
This is one of the reasons why I have been coming through to Mercedes, as well as to other people. Part of my work is to be a leader in the transformation that humans are in the process of undergoing. This is a transformation from having the Divine Masculine as the predominant message you received and incarnated for a very long time. That message has predominated both in terms of your spirituality and also in terms of your more mundane world and aspects of that world—your politics, culture, education, and personal development. All of these have been quite dominated by the Masculine, what you could call the Divine Masculine. Now it is time for the Divine Feminine to come forth, to be incarnated, to be understood, and for all of you—men and women alike—to become strong in the Feminine, so that you can come into balance between the Masculine and the Feminine.
First and foremost, this must happen within yourselves. You all have your own inner Feminine and Masculine, which is a reflection or manifestation of the Divine Feminine and Divine Masculine. For all of you, this is where the work originates, within yourselves. For many of you, this will require strengthening the Feminine, because this has not been supported and developed for a very, very long time. Even those of you who feel great love of the Feminine and the Divine Feminine, who feel very positively oriented toward the Feminine, even you often have work within yourselves to do to strengthen your inner Feminine. This is very practical work. There are very practical arenas that need to be developed for this to become strong, because it has been withheld from you, in so many ways, for so very long.
As I talked about in the messages that are recorded in the book Mary Magdalene Beckons, there are three primary arenas where the Feminine needs to be strong. It is within these three arenas that many people need to examine themselves and see what work they may have to do to complete the strengthening of the Feminine within. This is so important for people to do at this time. First and foremost, this is work for you to do with yourself, for your own strengthening and balancing. Secondly, this work needs to be done for your sacred relationships you will be engaging in your life, that these can come into balance. The third very important reason is that you are not only doing this work for yourself. You do this as service to humanity, for your whole world. As you transform, as you strengthen and develop and grow yourself, you are affecting what is accessible for people, what is available to people, and what is becoming strong for your whole world. Any time you do growth and transformation work for yourself, it affects everyone. That is very, very important at this time.
You are all at a very critical juncture, where there is great opportunity opening up for your world, and for human beings, in particular, to transition into a higher level of consciousness. This will be reflected in a higher dimension of reality coming in and being the realm that you all inhabit, that you know, that you live in and are manifesting in. This is the great opportunity you have at this time. Those of you who are on your spiritual path, who are light-workers, very likely those of you who are listening to me at this time, many of you are quite aware of this. I, and so many beings of the higher realms, thank you for all that you are doing to support this amazing transformation that is underway in your world. This is not only affecting the Earth. This transformation is so vast and involves so many places in your universe, all of which you are affecting through the spiritual work you are doing. It is most important. We thank all of you for this.
I am aware that I have wandered away a bit from where I started, which was explaining about the Divine Feminine and the arenas through which this manifests within each of you. Now I wish to return to that. What I want to explain is that there are these three arenas that are the foundation of the Divine Feminine within each one of you: the relationship with your physical body, the relationship with your sexuality, and the relationship with your emotions. For each of you, these are the places that I strongly urge you to examine and see what may need strengthening within yourself. This is what I talked about in great depth in the messages I gave in the book Mary Magdalene Beckons, along with my guidance and instruction as to what each of you can do to strengthen these areas. As I said at that time, of these three, the area that is most critical for the most people is the way that you respond to pain.
The area of emotions, for many people, is quite confusing. Your emotions are truly a gift from the divine that is rather unique to human beings in your realm. Yet many of you do not yet fully understand how to receive this gift that has been given to you in the emotional realm and how to work with emotions, particularly your painful emotions. This is the part that is most challenging for many of you. You did not receive help and support and guidance in understanding the pathway of how to respond to painful emotions, how to receive the gift from God that’s being given to you through these emotions, and how to make use of emotions to support your spiritual journey, to support your uniting with God.
Because you did not receive that instruction and that guidance, and because you do not fully understand it, I especially focused on that in my earlier messages that are recorded in Mary Magdalene Beckons. I gave detailed instruction about how you can respond differently to your painful emotions in a way that will be most supportive of you, most supportive of your spiritual connection, and most supportive of your forward movement in your spiritual evolution. I did this because, from my vantage point, this is the area that is holding most people back from their spiritual growth in general, and specifically from the incarnation of the Divine Feminine.
This is why I said earlier that while many of you are so positively oriented to the Divine Feminine and the Feminine in all her forms (which is a most wonderful thing), even so, for many of you there may still be work to do in these three arenas, and especially in the emotional arena in terms of how you respond to pain. I urge you to make use of the instruction I have given and to learn these pathways of incarnating the Divine Feminine, which will support you and help to transform you, and in that process, transform your world.

YESHUA: Breaking Through The Veil Of Separation
Channeled by Mercedes Kirkel
On September 4, 2013
Beloved,
This is Yeshua. I love you. I love you so very much. This is what I want you to know, to feel, to always be connected to. This will change your life, to know my love. Many people have experienced this. You experience this when you channel and I come through you for others. You have described what it’s like to be in my presence, what a sublime and exalted state you are drawn into and how exquisite it is. This is all true. And yet afterwards you return to your ordinary state, your usual consciousness and energy. Why is that? Why do you not stay connected with me?
I am not blaming or berating you. I am asking these questions to try to help you. You see, that is the challenge of the third dimension. Your consciousness and awareness naturally returns back to the dominant mode, which is the state of separation from God, from life, ultimately from yourself. And so that becomes the spiritual work in the third dimension, to reconnect with God, life, and self. It is not easy. It takes great strength and commitment and dedication, because the default is to forget and return to disconnection, separation.
When you are channeling me, you are lifted into my state, my energy, my consciousness, my experience. It is a gift. Others receive this gift in various ways. Perhaps they do not channel. Perhaps they have an experience or an opening to my state, consciousness, or energy in a different way. Perhaps through meditation, or spiritual study, or connecting with nature, or love, or a spiritual gathering, or a moment in their life that breaks through “the veil” of separation that you experience in the third dimension. Often these moments are something out of the ordinary, something extraordinary. It might be something wonderful, or something that appears miraculous (meaning that it isn’t readily explained by your rational mind), or something very painful.
Feeling love with another is one of the avenues of going beyond the veil of separation in your dimension. Love is a very powerful force of upliftment. Most of you do not realize the tremendous power of love yet. This is something you will be understanding more fully at the higher dimensions, when your blocks to love that you currently experience are no longer obstructing you. At the third dimension, the most powerful form of love that most people experience is love for a partner, usually of the opposite sex, though not always. This form of love is so powerful for most of you that your society tends to be rather obsessed with it. What you must understand is that the love you experience is not coming from the other person, nor is it coming from you. It is coming through you and through the other person. It is coming from God. It is truly God’s love that you experience. Any love is truly God’s love, such as the love of a child or a parent, the love of a friend, the love of an animal, any form of love.
You may say, why call it God’s love? Why does it have to belong to God. That is part of the thinking of separation. It does not belong to God. It simply is God. Everything is God. Love is the power of God. When you experience love in the third dimension, you are simply experiencing a window into knowing God. Unfortunately many people don’t realize this. So they end up searching for their perfect partner, or demanding perfection from their present partner. That is doomed to fail in this dimension. It is like demanding something from a movie that it cannot provide.
If you want to be fulfilled, you must release the image, which is the other person, and find its source. The source is God. Then you can receive the other person as a gift that’s opening you to God. You will be connected to God and that is what will fulfill you and satisfy your heart. Then you will be filled, your heart will be full of God’s love, and you can bring that fullness into your relationship. That is the path of satisfaction and fulfillment.
In the third dimension, this requires faith and trust. Ideally that trust and faith is developed from the beginning of your life, starting with your relationship with your parents. A positive early life experience is a great help to people in forming the foundation of trust and faith in God. If this does not occur, you may have work to do to establish your trust and faith, perhaps healing the past wounding that occurred. But trust and faith is always available, just as God is always available. You simply must exercise trust and faith. In your scientific, skeptical world, filled with material distractions, this is not always easy. It takes inner strength to choose this. Often it is difficult circumstances which gives you that inner strength. That is the gift of difficulty in the third dimension.
One way or another, sooner or later, everyone will find this. It is always there for you as a motivation. You are drawn to God, just as a moth is drawn to light. It is an inner memory, no matter how faint or distant. Everyone knows it and is drawn in some form or other. You may be drawn to have meaning in your life. You may be drawn to experience love. You may be drawn to experience release. You may be drawn to experience something greater, something more. Whatever the form that your calling takes, everyone is drawn. Even if it doesn’t occur in this lifetime, it will occur. It is inevitable.
I urge you to find your connection, your inner drawing that is your path in this lifetime to God. I do this because I love you, because I love God, because I want you to be fulfilled in God. That is my work and my path, to help you to know the greatness and wonder and ultimate fulfillment of living in God’s love. May this message be one more support and help in drawing you to that path, whatever form it takes for you.
I love you immensely. Call on me at any time and I am with you.
Yeshua

MARY MAGDALENE: My Genetic Lineage
Part 5 of a Message
Received by Mercedes Kirkel
On July 21, 2013
Question: When you walked on the Earth with Yeshua, I believe you gave birth to a daughter. If that is so, then there must still be a genetic lineage on this planet, because I assume your child had children, and so on. In the spirit world in which you exist now, can you influence your lineage on this planet, or does it really matter?
Mary Magdalene: It is true that I gave birth to a daughter and that this was through my union with Yeshua. It is also true that there was a genetic lineage. It was one possibility for influencing the world. But as it turned out, it did not become the most important, by any means.
The process of manifesting higher energies into a third-dimensional reality, such as the Earth, happens in many ways. The physical is simply one way. And the physical genetic lineage is actually less important than what happens at the higher levels, which you might call the soul levels and the soul family. We are always manifesting through our soul family. It is not simply a linear process. It is not that I take form on Earth and that is my only form.
At the higher dimensions, we don’t assume individuality in the way that you are familiar with in your world. So even what you speak about as being a particular higher being is not exactly the way that we relate to that. We are manifested in a different way, which has much more to do with our soul group and has a much larger form, encompassing many beings. So for us it is entirely natural that our influence would come into the Earth realm in many, many ways, in many forms, which are not limited to time, space, or manifestation.
It is a very complex subject, upon which I am not the highest expert. The thing I can say about this is that it is not wise to get too focused on who may be an incarnation of whom, or who may be related through their genetics or their ancestry to whom, who is experiencing a soul connection to this being or that being… We have connections to so many beings.
The most important thing is for you to connect with those who are your guides, who you become clear are guiding you from the highest realms, in the highest forms of light. Then consider other beings who are manifested on the Earth who may be receiving messages, connections, guidance from their guides, and to consider if that is right for you or not. That is what is most important.
It is a great limitation to try to contain what higher beings bring to you within a certain structure or form, saying “There is this incarnation of a being,” or “There are a set number of incarnations of a being.” It is a distraction from what the beings really want to be bringing to you, which is ultimately light. And light is not limited by form. Neither light nor love is limited by form.
While it may certainly be interesting to want to understand the mechanics of how it works, that will come in time. And in time, you probably won’t be so interested in how it works at the third dimension anyway (she laughs), because that won’t be your reality.
For some, it is more important to understand this than for others, because that is part of their path and their work, to understand how these functions work. But the important thing, from my perspective, is to focus on what is drawing you to light. The whole reason that Yeshua and myself and all the others involved became significant 2000 years ago was not because of who our parents were or because of our lineage. It was because of the light that was brought in, which was undeniable, unmistakable for those who were able to see it and recognize it. That is what to put your attention on. Let everything else be lighter. I did not mean that as a pun. (She laughs.) Let everything else be of less significance or concern. Let it be a celebration rather than a limitation.
It is a miracle that anyone ever incarnates here, and a joy that so many do. Let it take that form. Find the light that is in all. If it communicates to you as the light of Yeshua, the light of Mary Magdalene, the light of any being, let that just be a joy and a wonder to your heart. That will carry you into your own union with light and you will not need these other forms. That will be the most strong and powerful, and, over time, the most real.
That is my suggestion.
[End of Part 5]

Yeshua: Completing Your Work In The Third Dimension
Part 2 of a Message
Received Through Mercedes Kirkel on February 17, 2013
Question: For those who came here from the fourth dimension and chose to not be fully involved in the third dimension, is it time to intertwine with the third and fourth, or somehow lead and show the fourth dimension, like this is where we’re going, knowing that the third dimension is just about done?
Yeshua: Any being who is here in the third dimension has chosen to be here. Individual beings often do not remember that choice, because that is part of coming into the third dimension. You forget that process of choosing to be in the third dimension. At the higher dimensions you do not forget. You remember. Part of what makes the third dimension potentially confusing and difficult is that forgetting process.
One aspect of awakening to the fourth dimension is starting to remember why you chose to come here and to be sure that you have completed that work. There is the fundamental work of having the experiences you chose to have by being here. In that process, most of you have been here for many lifetimes. Over those lifetimes you have opened up to certain experiences that may not be complete. So you may also have completion work to do relative to your experiences during your lifetimes here in the third dimension.
These are two somewhat different things, although they are very related. One is at the soul-level, involving certain experiences and learning you have chosen at the soul-level to have. You then engaged experiences in the third dimension to have that learning and those experiences. That has opened you up to what sometimes is referred to as “karma.” This means that you may have practical completions relative to the experiences that you have had. So the transition to the fourth dimension can involve both practical completions relative to your third-dimensional experiences and soul-level completions, fulfilling the learning and experiences that your soul wanted to have in coming here.
You, as a soul, are not separated from the larger process. Part of what makes the third dimension different is that you have the idea that you are separated and your soul-path is different from other people’s soul-path, other beings’ soul-path. But that is not really the case. You might look at it as you being a scout for the greater being. Any learning, any experiences that you have, you take back to the whole, to the All That Is. So this is not just for yourself. You engage in this process for all beings.
There is also another aspect, where beings have chosen to come into this earth plane of the third dimension and this place as helpers, to support and assist in this process of ascension. That is also a form of life-purpose. Many beings may have both—they have come to gain learning and experience, and also to offer service and support.
Regardless, the process is the same at this point for all beings—to complete whatever you need to complete at the third dimension and to make the shift into the fourth dimension. This shift can be made even while you still exist in the third dimension. It just requires you to apply yourself to that, and that is what the spiritual process is about.
You will know if you have anything left to complete because it will manifest in your life. It generally manifests as challenges, difficulties, problems—in relationships with people, your circumstances such as work, supporting yourself, in relationship to your body, your physicality, your health, your home situation. Whatever it is, those things are manifesting and they inform you that those are areas in which you are not yet complete. So, for most of you, it should be clear from that what your work is.
Beyond that, your work is to be love and light, love and consciousness. Of course, that will feel the best to you and will be the greatest service that you offer. As you are practicing being love and consciousness, you will notice the places where you are not love and consciousness. And again, that will reflect to you where you have growth to do within yourself, because whatever you are manifesting is a reflection of you.
Question: I have a question in regard to relationships. How do you figure out or realize if a relationship is an unhealthy one that’s not serving you, and you need to let go of it and move on—or if it’s something that you need to work with because in working with it you will grow and learn your lessons, and it’s actually healthy and serving you?
Yeshua: The second is always true. Whatever is coming up in a relationship is always something you need to grow and work with, or it wouldn’t be coming up. It’s your choice how you choose to grow and work with that. You can do it in relationship. You can do it out of relationship. A lot of times, working with the issue in relationship helps you, because when you do the work out of relationship, you oftentimes assume that you’re doing very well and everything is fine. Then you get in relationship and you find out otherwise. Many people then make the mistake of blaming the other person, because you were fine when you were by yourself. (laughter) But the reality is that you were simply avoiding that arena. Being in relationship helps you to see your patterns. This is one of the benefits of relationship. It helps you to see yourself, as long as you don’t make the mistake of assuming it’s the other person.
That’s not to say that the other person isn’t doing very real things, doesn’t have their own work. It’s just that that really has nothing to do with your work. And if you focus on that, you will tend not to do your own work. You will also tend to have a lot of difficulty in your relationship, which will oftentimes manifest as conflict, arguing. You will be having arguments about whose work it is to do what, to make the change that you want to have. (laughter)
Ultimately it is always your own work. When you have done that work, you will be manifesting a different situation. Not to say that you will be manifesting a different relationship. You may be, or you may be manifesting the same relationship with a very different pattern happening in that relationship.
So whatever is coming up is always a sign of your own work to do. It is always a gift, ultimately, and an opportunity. But that is not to say that, therefore, you should always stay in the same circumstance that you are in. It is simply that you should always do your own work. When you do that work, you will generally be guided as to the outer steps that come out of that work. That will clarify for you whether to remain in that relationship, make changes in the relationship, or make changes that include not remaining in that relationship. You will be clarified. You will also take the actions from a place that’s increasingly gentle, compassionate, peaceful, because you will more and more be creating those qualities within yourself and emanating that out into your relationships.
If you are not having the clarity, it is a sign that you have not done the inner work. When you do the inner work, you will come to clarity.
There is one measure you can always use, which is that a relationship should be supporting you on your spiritual path. There is no other reason for having a relationship. The measure you can use is that your joy, your love, your consciousness is supported, is increased through the relationship. If that is not happening, that is a sign that the relationship is not supporting you in doing your inner work and your inner growth. So you can use that as a help. But it is not to say that the relationship is bad, or the partner is bad. It’s all about you, meaning each individual. It is simply about what supports you in doing your own work and staying responsible for that.
Some people choose to stay in situations, which other people look at and say, “That’s a bad situation.” What they usually mean is that it’s not supporting the person. But others can’t really know from the outside. They don’t know the full spectrum of your spiritual path, your spiritual choices. Only you know that. Similarly, each individual knows what is supporting their spiritual path.
There is a great deal of confusion that occurs in relationships when people are not strong spiritually and get in relationships. Sometimes it can work out, where there is harmony and where the individuals’ spirituality is ultimately supported. But oftentimes it is a problematic situation because people end up demanding from their partner what they should be getting from their own spirituality. And of course their partner, in that circumstance, will never be able to fulfill that. When you are connected spiritually, connected to God, you will generally see your partner as a manifestation of God and the Divine, just as you will see all of life as a manifestation of God and the Divine. But when you are disconnected, you will not tend to see that and oftentimes will fall into the trap of demanding that from your partner, wanting your partner to fill the hole that you feel within yourself. This is a great deal of the difficulty that occurs in human relationships.
Human relationships at the third dimension are not easy. In general, there are difficulties because the third-dimensional consciousness is so much about power-over, competition, not enough for everyone. In your relationships, you are doing deep spiritual work to overcome this with another being. It can be a very empowered path for doing so, if you see it as such. Again, that does not mean that all relationships are your spiritual path or that you should always embrace any particular relationship as a spiritual path. It is not saying any kind of fixed rule like that. It is simply saying that relationships altogether are a powerful form that support you in your spiritual growth, if you understand them as such.
Question: I’m thinking about how Christianity perhaps has a misperception or a different perspective than you would want the world at large to know about you and your message—how they worship you and put you on a really high pedestal that they can’t reach. Are there any messages for us to hear and convey to other people who may be trapped in this misperception of you, to help open their eyes to a new way of seeing and having a different relationship with you.
Yeshua: In general that path will not be productive—the path of trying to show people another way who are drawn to certain religious structures and belief systems about me.
Those people have their learning and it is different from yours. Those people have manifested a tremendous system of authoritarianism and doctrine, not necessarily based in reality or even truth. And they have their own learning that they are getting from that. You must not look at them as victims, any more than you must look at yourself as a victim. They do not need to be saved any more than you need to be saved. What will help them is the same thing that helps you, which is truth.
But the thing that helps most people, especially at this time, is truth that is felt, truth that is lived. As you live your truth, you can share that as your experience, your truth to people who are open, who are interested, who invite that. But the path of trying to convert people is usually based in some lack of understanding of those peoples’ own process. When they have completed their learning that they need, they will be hungry for something to help them that is new, and will come to those such as yourself because they are seeking, they are looking, they are asking. You do not need to take a directive role in that process.
When you encounter people who seem to be misguided (from your point of view), it would be valuable to ask yourself why you have manifested this in your life. Rather than focusing outward on what you need to do to change that person, consider what you need to do to change yourself. That is where you will be most effective.
Is there a part of you that is still looking for authorities to save you, looking for stories to relieve you, open to not seeing realities or truths that are in front of you? Perhaps you are manifesting that in your outer world as other people who seem to be engaging that.
When you are in the fourth dimension, you won’t have this sense that you have to change the outer world. You will simply change yourself and your outer world will change. So to focus on changing the outer world is to commit to stay in the third dimension. That is a third-dimensional process. It is much better to change yourself and create a different world.
And, while you are in the third dimension, there will be actions, there will be steps that you need to take. It is not that you should never act in the third dimension, or only go into the inner and wait until you are in the fourth dimension. If you are in third dimension then there is a balance, an active role that is called for. This is similar to what I was referring to when I said “give to Cesar what is Cesar’s.” Give to the third dimension what is the third dimension’s. But do not be called to that as your life work. Your life work is to grow in love and light. And that will manifest around you as the obvious sign that that is occurring.
Is that clear?
Question: Yes. Thank you. I love you so much.
Yeshua: And I love you.
Now we will close this session. I thank you so much for sharing your heart space with me. I love you all so much. With great blessings, I leave this circumstance, but never your heart.
