The Astrological History & Mystery of the Divine Feminine ~ Mary Magdalene


Next weekend, July 21st @8:30 am BST (sorry if too early/late), in honour of her Saintly feast day (22nd), I’ll be giving a Sunday presentation on the astrological history and mystery of Mary Magdalene.🌹🙏💖⭐️

The Astrological History & Mystery of the Divine Feminine – Part 1 Mary Magdalene

$25.00

The Astrological History & Mystery of the Divine Feminine –Part 1 Mary Magdalene

July 21st 4:30pm AEST (standard time)
The Astrological History & Mystery of the Divine FemininePart 1 – Mary Magdalene
Laura Boomer Trent presents an astrological overview of the enigmatic Mary Magdalene as a daughter, beloved sister, wife, devotee, Myrrh-bearing priestess, (tantric) healer, and whore: a role she held according to Western Christianity for 1500 years. Latterly she became a Saint, as well as serving as inspiration for generations of romantics, artists, women, and Knights of the Templar. Interestingly, Orthodox, Coptic and Lutheran Churches have always venerated ‘The Magdalene’.
With the revelation of the Dead Seas Scrolls, when lost gospels came to light in the mid-20th C, Mary’s reputation as First Apostle was quietly restored. Still Mary Magdalene’s spiritual message continues to fascinate and grow. Hidden symbols reveal her mysteries as the Black Madonna, Sacred Goddess, and a Spiritual Teacher.
Also in this presentation we explore the emblematic sacred geometry associated with her name; as well as The Magdalene’s astrological signatures in the horoscopes of those who have also played her, in film and on stage, to discover just what astrologically attracts us to this mysterious, towering lighthouse of womanhood.

Some of you may wonder why someone so obviously into Buddhism is now talking about The Magdalene, a visionary Christian with a dramatic past. To be honest with you, I appear to be coming full circle, bridging Eastern and Western Goddess spirituality. Even as a child I have always been devoted to ‘The Goddess’, whoever she is and whatever form she takes. To my heartmind the Goddess, wherever she is found in her many guises as Tara, Astarte, Diane, Athena, Hekete, Kali, Isis, Innana, Laxmi, or Prajnaparamita for instance, or indeed, ‘The Magdalene’, she reveals the breadth and depth of our inherent human wisdom – and how intuitive knowledge is an integral path for spiritual realisation: to experience the divine spark of consciousness, the Goddess must be present. Also, ‘The Magdalene’ reputedly came ashore not far from where I write in France; so my fascination with the First Apostle is unexpectedly experiential.

…But I am getting ahead of the presentation: do book now, for next Sunday: It would be lovely to have you along...

Mind science


Mind science fascinates me, as training the chattering monkey mind is something I am constantly working on. Admittedly the mind and the brain are not the same. The brain is the intellect while the mind constantly interacts with feelings and the environment and, from astrology's 'interconnectivity' point of view, also with the heavens. So when scientists recently went looking for God in the brain, was it any surprise that all kinds of cerebral activity get sparked? Even though scientists only studied the brains of monotheistic religions, i.e. Christian, Muslim, Jewish, to me this only confirms that the intellect conceives the Divine to be everywhere, all around the ordinary world.

Here is one of the recent reports:

'Scientists searching for brain's 'God spot' find belief circuits'

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/scienceandtechnology/science/sciencenews/ 'God' is found everywhere in the brain, 4966118/Scientists-searchi
ng-for-brains-God-spot-find-belief-circuits.html

Since reading these articles I have been wondering why then, fellow astrologers (and dharma practitioners too), do we see Jupiter, Neptune, 9th, 12th, Sagittarius, Pisces as being our only heavenly links to faith, religion, and the Divine, God, the Void, call it what you will. The cosmic kind of consciousness that fires up all parts of the brain, which means it must surely be found in all areas of the horoscope as well?

This article in the New Zealand herald mentions other studies, a Buddhist one and another, which Dawkins fans might enjoy:
