Mystical Magdalene

Dive into the Sacred Teachings of Mary Magdalene to Unearth the Mystical Woman That You Are

This immersion with Verena Maria and Turiya Ma is an invitation for you to join us on the powerful initiatory Path of the Magdalene.

During this 3-day retreat into the ancient Rose Mysteries, we’ll dive into the sacred teachings of Mary Magdalene and unearth the mystical woman that lies within your very own Heart-Womb.

The relatively little-known Gospel of Mary Magdalene, as translated by Jean-Yves Leloup, is a revolutionary and sacred scripture that reframes history and opens us to Her-Story. It’s a story that the patriarchy tried to burn and destroy, authored by a woman who was silenced and slandered for millennia, that reveals a clear and direct feminine path towards Self-mastery and Heart-centered leadership.

The Gospel of Mary Magdalene emphasizes inner preparation, introspection, inner alchemy, and inner transformation for the highest benefit of all. Drawing upon key teachings shared in this precious gospel, as a circle of dedicated sisters, we will move from mere intellectual understanding towards an embodied, vibrant, and complete revelation of the mystical woman that you already are.

This Immersion Is for You:

  • If you feel a resonance with Mary Magdalene, Yeshua, and the Lineage of the Rose
  • If you feel the longing to bridge authentic spirituality and feminine embodiment
  • If you want to unearth your inherent feminine power and leadership
  • If you long to own your visionary effervescence
  • If you are called to step into true service
