SUMMARY:Mary Magdalene Retreat
DESCRIPTION:You are warmly invited to join us for the Mary Magdalene Retreat – a residential immersion into the timeless wisdom and mystery of Mary Magdalene \n  \nFacilitator: Dr Annie Southern \nProudly Supported by:  \nThe Sacred Path\, Embrace Your Calm\, Red Tent Aotearoa & The Farm for Wellbeing \n  \n  \nAt this wonderful retreat will be looking at the Gospel of Mary as well as the wider story of Mary Magdalene/Mariamne of Magdala. \n  \n  \nThe Gospel of Mary (or the Gospel of Mary Magdalene) is a writing discovered in 1896 in Egypt. Scholars date the original composition of this work to the fifth century. Two other copies have been found from earlier centuries. It was first made public in 1955. \nMary Magdalene/Mariamne of Magdala was a key figure in the Jesus/Yeshua Movement and one of its main funders as well as one of the closest people to Jesus/Yeshua.  \nWas she a Vestal Virgin prior to joining the movement or did she study with Essenes who accepted women which not all did?  \nOr had she studied in Egypt and learned the Isis tradition as well as the tradition of the Myrrhophores who used sacred oils for healing and spiritual transcendence?  \nWas she possessed by demons and healed by Jesus/Yeshua or is this a misinterpretation? Was she the thirteenth Apostle?  \nWas she the main teacher after Jesus/Yeshua’s death? \n  \n  \n  \n  \n During the Mary Magdalene Retreat We Will Explore: Why the Gospel of Mary was left out of the canonical New Testament of 27 books and how it fits with the other apocryphal texts that also are outside of the current Bible such as those of the Gnostic tradition (eg\, Nag Hamadi texts) and the Qumran Caves Scrolls (Essene texts) \n What the teachings of the Gospel is when it comes to the higher realms The soul work we are meant to undertake in our lives according to the Gospel  What Mary Magdalene/Mariamne of Magdala’s story teaches us about the sacred ‘secretion/oil’ of the Chrism and its role in our accessing of our higher selves (this will involve learning about our sun sign in relation to the lunar cycle and our chakras and physical anatomy’s roles in the rising of the Chrism) \n The wider stories of Mary Magdalene including her connections to Egypt and France Why images of Mary Magdalene/Mariamne of Magdala often depict her with the alabaster jar\, skull\, and/or an egg Why Mary Magdalene’s role was devalues and discarded by Christianity for over a century and a half — and why her story is now returning How understanding the Gospel of Mary’s significance can re-invision Christianity and provide us with a possibility of a deeply personal and spiritual ‘Christian’ experience that we may have always longed for \n  \nPlus much\, much more… \n  \n  \nMary Magdalene Retreat Experience:This retreat is designed to nourish body\, mind\, and spirit.\nIncluded: Shared accommodation and beautiful nourishing food Morning yoga to begin each day Sacred cacao ceremony and ecstatic dance on Saturday night Immersive teachings on Mary Magdalene with Dr Annie Southern Group exploration\, discussion\, and spiritual practice\n\n\nThe Mary Magdalene Retreat is perfect for women who feel drawn to:• The Sacred Feminine• Mystical Christianity• Gnostic wisdom traditions• Spiritual embodiment practices• The deeper story of Mary Magdalene\n\n\nWhether you come from a Christian background or simply feel called to explore the lost feminine wisdom of early Christianity\, this retreat offers a space for profound insight\, connection\, and awakening.\n\n\n Come explore the hidden teachings of Mary Magdalene and the Gospel that almost changed Christianity\n\n\nArrival time is 4pm Friday 29 May 2026Departure time 4pm Sunday 31 May 2026\n\n\n\n\n\nCost: $750 AUD$100 deposit is required to secure your spot.\n\nBalance due by May 15th.
