Expanding the scholarship and understanding of the early Christian period and the world of the Essenes from a feminine perspective, religious historian Annine van der Meer offers a detailed new account of the life of Mary Magdalene, also known as Mary of Bethany or Miryam the Migdalah, showing how Marys spiritual path is intimately connected to our current times of ascension. She explores Marys family background, her education in Egypt, her mission in Western Europe, and her life and work alongside Jesus, also known as Yeshua, including her presence at his baptism in the River Jordan and her anointing as his wife and his appointed successorwhich was not recognized by the patriarchal disciples, Peter, Andrew, and Paul, who later claimed to be Jesuss successors. The author also explores biblical, historical, apocryphal, and recent channeled sources and regression reports, including those of Dolores Cannon, Stuart Wilson, Joanna Prentis, and Claire Heartsong, to provide eye-witness details of the lives of Jesus and Mary Magdalene, including Jesuss travels to England and India and Mary Magdalenes time in France.
Examining Marys ascension process through seven branches and portals along the Tree of Life, detailed in The Gospel of the Beloved Companion, written by Mary herself, the author shows how we are currently undergoing a collective and individual ascension process as the frequency of Earth accelerates. Scientifically explaining ascensionthe changing of the physical body into a light bodythrough recent developments in quantum physics, she then takes the reader through seven portals from individual ascension to collective ascension, illuminating Marys heavenly journey of becoming light and its spiritual significance for each of us as individuals and for the world as a whole.
