I pulled this card from my Mary Magdalene oracle deck (created by Meggan Watterson -- illustrations by moonjube) last night as part of my full moon reading. In the guide book Meggan writes about this card's meaning and the message was exactly what I needed today. I thought I would share in case anyone else needs this message from Mary this week! ❤️🌹❤️

Waxing gibbous on the edge of full illumination tonight Refinement and honoring at its peak energy The openness this week of allowing what comes up as a gift to my intuition from my soul Then from my intuition to my consciousness Getting really clear on meaning and choice And the honoring of lessons that lead to choices The true harvest- arrived through releasing From here I can now see clearly My joy stems from ... Placing meaning on the process, the approach (Not on the outcome, output, results) The lessons that drive new choices (Not on the "doing" after the choice) This is unconditional love This is my nature From here "the devil" can't reach me Because the shadows inside are comfortable with my light Through the embodiment of Mary Magdalene I have consistently shown them no harm and full honor I see my shadows are as beautiful as my light I am both (Picture: My Tarot - Oracle cards from the last couple days on my table- I keep them out and ponder them and journal and pull more on top of them as I go deeper-- my practice and commitment to self)

I offer channeled writings from a collective, and Mary often comes through within them. In Honor of today’s prayer theme of confusion, I felt pulled to post a snippet of one of my recent channeled writings that is sitting in my heart: “Stillness requires patience. There is an endless supply of this within you. The Key lays in giving up "knowing" and it is here, your heart's call will be answered.” 🙏🏼💕🙏🏼💕🌹

I thought I was researching Mary Magdalene. Then I realized she had been explaining what had already happened to me. ✨📚If you'd rather read this in my Substack: The Magdalene Heresies “If you bring forth what is within you, what you bring forth will save you. If you do not bring forth what is within you, what you do not bring forth will destroy you.” I’ve read that passage from the Gospel of Thomas for years. I’ve quoted it. I’ve taught it. I’ve highlighted it in books and nodded knowingly whenever it appeared in discussions about Gnosticism, consciousness, and spiritual awakening. And then recently I had one of those strange moments where a familiar idea suddenly revealed an entirely different meaning. Not because the words changed. Because I did. Have you ever had that happen? A phrase you’ve heard a hundred times suddenly lands in a completely new way. You don’t learn something new as much as realize you’ve been looking at the same thing from the wrong angle, and all at once, something becomes obvious. That happened to me while I was thinking about the Magdalene Method. For years, I assumed this passage was talking about hidden gifts, spiritual purpose, or some untapped divine potential waiting to emerge. Now I think it is talking about something much more immediate, much more personal, and honestly, much more uncomfortable. I think it is talking about the things we refuse to see. The fears we inherited. The beliefs we absorbed. The wounds we buried. The stories we keep repeating because they have become so familiar that we mistake them for reality. The parts of ourselves that quietly shape every decision we make while remaining largely invisible to us. And as I sat with that realization, another one arrived right behind it. The entire Magdalene Method grew out of this exact process.
