I want to move to the next level, evolve past this stage. To understand this process more deeply. What do I need to let go of? Why can't I let go of needing ... something? Why am I still looking outside of myself for happiness, for answers?
Can Mary Magdalen help me? Yes.

"The term Initiate refers to one who has decided to live upward in consciousness, one who has decided to leave behind the mundane life and enter into an adventure of consciousness."

"Mary, the mother of Yeshua, when she was quite young, was recognised for her purity of spirit by the great Priestesses of the Isis temples. She was trained as an Initiate and reached the highest levels. But rather than becoming a Priestess, she was trained to become what is called an Incarnate.
To be an Incarnate is to be a very highly advanced soul and requires undergoing tremendous spiritual training and discipline. In the final initiation, Mary became the holder of an energy stream directly from Isis herself. In this regard, she was an embodiment of the Cosmic Mother. It is as if there were two - Mary the human, pure of spirit and heart, holding within her a direct portal into the Great Mother, the Creatrix of all matter, of all time and space."

"When I met Yeshua by the well for the first time, the mere proximity of his presence activated my internal Alchemies. A Serpent Power moved up my spine as if I had practiced the disciplines I had learned."

"Mary was with the apostles when they came upon me at the well. She immediately recognised me as a fellow Initiate by the gold serpent bracelet I wore on my arm and by the Seal of Isis which glowed within my Ka body, for Mary was quite clairvoyant and psychic.
The first person whose eyes I met were those of Yeshua, and as I said, I felt transported into other worlds in his immense presence. The second person whose eyes I met were those of his mother. In her eyes was recognition and acknowledgement of my status as a fellow Initiate within the Isis Cult, and although her training had not been in Sex Magic, as mine had been, she understood that I had been prepared for Yeshua.
Between them, I felt lifted up on wings of transcendent love. I felt my spirit soar.
Ironic then that the next eyes I would see were those of Yeshua's disciples, who judged me to be a whore, and countless generations have held me this way.
But I say to you that in Yeshua's eyes and those of his mother, I was not a whore, but a clear vessel for the healing and nurturing powers of Isis herself."

"It is important for both Initiates undertaking the Sex Magic of Isis to realise that they are embarking on a long journey and that the process is essentially one of alchemy. The purpose of alchemy is to transform one substance into another. It does this by burning off the dross, or the negativity of a substance, so that the pure substance remains or is created."
