Mary Magdalene Probably Assisted Jesus in His Resurrection
She was present at the crucifixion and was the first to announce Jesus had resurrected. What was she doing at the tomb? Possibly assisting Jesus. How?! Let us remember and trace this back to Egypt.
Mary Magdalene shares strikingly similar qualities with Isis, a mother Goddess in the Egyptian pantheon. Both Isis and Magdalene appear as sacred consorts to their godly male counterparts, as they embody the feminine mysteries of wisdom through union with God. Apocryphal gospels found in Egypt in 1945 contain some potential connections between those who taught union with God and Egypt. One apocryphal Gospel quotes Jesus naming Magdalene as initiated in the mysteries, therefore he claims her as his closest, most trusted disciple because she knows more than the other disciples. Jesus calls Magdalene his companion then kisses her on the mouth in the Gospel of Philip. During the time of Jesus’ incarnation, Isis cults were widely popular through Egypt, the Middle East and spread into the Greco-Roman world because of an emphasis on the promise of resurrection. Was Magdalene initiated by Isis into the mysteries of resurrection?
The association of Isis with resurrection begins with a story involving Isis and her male counterpart, Osiris. According to the myth, a younger god, Set, dismembers Osiris in a fury of jealousy, attacking Osiris and scattering his body parts around the land. Weeping endlessly over her lost husband, Isis collects the pieces of Osiris with help from her sister, Nepthys. They recover all the body parts of Osiris, restoring the pieces using spells and oil, except Isis was missing one part, the loins of Osiris that were thrown into the Nile and eaten by a fish. Using the high magic of sacred energy exchange, Isis channels the essence of God through her body to provide life force current to animate the remembered body of Osiris long enough for Isis to conceive a child. Afterwards, Osiris explains he needs to remain in the underworld of the dead as King of the Afterlife.
The story of Isis creating a god-child through a “virgin” birth embedded widespread reverence for Isis and for all women throughout Egypt. The linkage of Isis with abundance, fertility, and rulership, influenced Egyptians to revere the power of women, regarding them as heads of households, endowing them with land, and elevating them to occupy positions of authority as pharaohs and high priestesses. Queens in Egypt associated themselves with the name of Isis to display their sovereignty as vessels with direct connection to God.
Some women received an additional initiatic title, “Wife of God”, an honorary term equivalent to high priest. Elaborate funerary sites for the “Wife of God” signify the massive economic, social, and political power granted to these women, whose title indicates their ability to unify themselves with God, thus representing the maintenance of balance between earth and cosmos embodied in the priestly order. Hieroglyphs show a “Wife of God” providing offerings to the goddess Ma’at, who ordered justice and truth, an action that publicly affirms the “Wife of God” as a legitimate position in divine and social Egyptian hierarchies. Kings sought union with these high priestesses so that their pharaonic offspring would descend directly from God as the women merged themselves with God during procreative acts and birth.
Mary Magdalene apparently understood the nature of birth and was a source of wisdom for early Christian disciples in absence of Jesus. In the Gospel of Mary, “The Savior” describes how yoking oneself to God creates a proper relationship to God, while living in ignorance of the body’s ability to unify with God constitutes "adultery,” a turning away from God due to a failure to see that a “child of humanity” exists within each person. In the text, the disciples ask Mary to speak about what she has learned from the Savior regarding these themes. The text then describes Mary directing the disciples' attention to their hearts before she elaborated on the ascension of the soul using non-gendered language.
Similarly, Isis giving and receiving life force with Osiris displays an non-gendered state of unification with God that impregnates Isis. Symbologies and stories of Isis and Magdalene parallel one another. It is clear Magdalene understood sacred energy exchange and unification with God for the purpose of evolving the soul. Jesus viewed her as a compatible companion, validating the high authority of her wisdom and indirectly giving Madgelene the title of “Wife of God.”
Magdalene is a crucial emblem of security and protection in the resurrection appearing with full compassion to witness Jesus’ suffering with her embodied presence as a key component of the triune mystery. Magdalene at the tomb signals she was remembering Jesus, holding the frequency of his etheric blueprint within her. Using the wisdom of her fully activated merkavah, she enlivened Jesus in the field coherence of her heart.
As she grieved, the matrix of her vessel proliferated source code information to harmonize the iconic field around his tomb. The emotional exuberance of her heartbreak seeded the reanimation of her beloved again on earth through the templates of pure creation aligned within her. Her knowledge of the movement of the soul designates her as a keeper of the mystery of death and birth as she held both space and embodied time for the movement of Jesus’ soul at the resurrection event.
While the details of Isis “mystery” initiations have been preserved as mysteries, historical facts support embodied memories of Magdalene now being recovered for the purpose of evolving the heart of humanity. High Priestesses on earth today are awakening to their power to restore harmonious order in relationship with creation. The mystery now remains in what the Priestesses will remember.
