Dear courageous men and women,

I greet you all, I am Mary Magdalene. I was here on Earth in a time of change, at a time when many people were looking for a way out of the restrictive situation. The Earth was then shrouded with an energy that kept people small and gave them a feeling of having no worth. That veil is thinning now; more light is coming from above, and that light comes from your souls which remain outside the veil.

When you incarnate on Earth, you take leave of your greater self, of who you really are. You descend into a world with structures of thought and feeling that are not of the soul. Feel from deep inside yourself where you come from, how infinite and far-reaching that realm is. Feel its energy and pull it through the veil, because you can do that. You have the ability to remember who you were and still are, that simplicity and complete joy. You need not adapt to structures that are not your own; you can experience freedom.

Imagine, symbolically, that you spread your wings, like a big bird, or perhaps an angel. What do those wings look like, what colors sparkle and shimmer? Feel the power in those wings! You can fly and you often do that in your imagination. You are not always here on Earth, in these man-made structures, you travel frequently. You are sensitive and you feel the energies that do not fit into these worldly structures.

You are visionaries and seers. Sense for a moment what those words evoke in you, because there is an old taboo against being like that. Yet know there are two reasons for seeing through the veil, for looking at what is essential and speaks to you. The first reason why you feel compelled to do this is because you want to remember who you truly are while in this life. You do not want to live shrouded by the mists, you want to be authentic with yourself, to experience the truth, and to make decisive steps on your inner path as a soul. Therefore, there is that great desire in you to break through the mists and to go toward that which is of the essence.

The second reason why you feel that inner urge is because you are a forerunner, a pioneer in consciousness. You are also here to give something to others, to allow your light to shine outwardly, to overcome the confusions, the pains, the fears in which humanity lives. There is still a veil over the Earth and although it is beginning to get thinner, powerful people like you, who allow their light to shine, are needed here to serve as examples to others so that the mists dissolve.

That is what you are, and as a forerunner for others, what your souls wanted to achieve in this life on Earth. You live the path for others to follow, and by that I mean you do not stand above others, but next to others. You are the way, so you are deeply challenged to remove the obstacles in your life, to penetrate deeply into life's essence, and by doing that, you also light the way for others, because you are an example for them. Feel the truth of these words for a moment and consider how they apply to you.

I can penetrate deeply into you, because you are open for that which is on the other side of the veil. You are the light bearers; you bring in a new era and what you call channeling creates openings in the thick shroud that surrounds the Earth and which is filled with fearful and dark thoughts. Each time an opening occurs, and more light comes streaming through, there is more joy in the earthly atmosphere, more hope and encouragement. People are then more willing to look into another's eyes, to hold another's hands, and to recognize themselves in another, and that is the purpose of channeling.

You are an earthly channel and you create a path by going the way of self-remembrance. When you are open and surrender to that path, external energies from outside the earthy atmosphere come to support and strengthen you. These energies, or guides, can support you in your own personal process and, in addition, there are energies that want to pass on something to other people. When meeting with others, tune into that stream which transcends your personal ideas and intellect, so your ideas can then get a more universal form. This is a very important step toward a new reality. To feel that connection with your soul, your higher self which transcends the Earth and which survives your body, is a sign of being sound in mind and mentally healthy

In the world of the soul, which is your natural home, live many other beings, including guides and teachers, whose heartfelt mission is to assist humankind on Earth. It is therefore natural and beautiful when you, in collaboration with such guiding lights, transmit information, warmth, and compassion on Earth. But you will find that once you take steps on this path, a lot of fear arises in you. The search for your own inner liberation, your own personal path, is one thing, but to bring forward your wisdom and knowledge among other people, in regard to ethereal energy and inner transformation, causes deep fear and resistance in most of you; you then collide with contemporary opinions and views of life.

There are very deep reasons why this energy work – channeling, clairsentience, clairvoyance – has been viewed with suspicion and has met with resistance and rejection in the past. In this present time, that suspicion takes the form of a rational, authoritative science that claims to have gathered objective knowledge of the world and therefore rejects the domain of feeling and intuition as illusory and too subjective.

But there is a deeper tension at the root of this rejection. There is in people, and certainly in people with positions of power, a great fear to let go of control. Many structures and hierarchies on Earth are based on power and control, and those who have power want to keep it that way. When people start thinking for themselves – by what they feel or want – it means a danger to the existing order. There is a certain holding on to power in the human world, a reactionary force that opposes change.

You collide with those powers when you stand up as an individual, when you follow your own path and spread your message in the world. It might no longer be the case that in today's society there is a dictator, or military or ecclesiastical power that will hold you back, but the patterns of fear, control, and power have become internalized in people, so you can be the recipient of rejection by family, neighbors, an employer. And this rejection is largely based on fear, from which sprouts a need for control that attempts to smother or dispel this emotional energy.

What can you do about that rejection? How can you find a way through that rejection in your own life? First, I want you to realize who you are, that you are a pioneer in the field of consciousness, that you are great and brave and courageous, and that you have already shown much resistance to old energies that want to draw you back into their pattern. Become aware of your own courage and perseverance. Hold fast to your inspiration, your desire, which is why you are here and why you are living your life as you have. By recognizing your own greatness and courage, you are already taking an important step forward. Do not allow yourself to be changed by the dictates of society; stand for yourself.

The next step is to feel where your energy is truly welcome, so let yourself be guided by that feeling. There are plenty of people in this world who need what you have to give, the very thing that makes you unique. There are openings in the energy field of the Earth, and movement and change in the collective thinking. Let yourself be guided, as it is not the intention that you should struggle against the existing order, but that you should stand strong in your own energy field guided by what is good and safe for you; where you can thrive and blossom, and no longer feel the need to hide. Such possibilities and places now exist here on Earth; those people are there.

Use your intuition and let go of the old idea of unworthiness. It is not about "having to do your best" and "having to prove yourself", it is about feeling where you are welcome, where you not only give and share, but where you also receive inspiration and abundance in return. Feel the balance! For example, see yourself standing in a field or in a city among people. Stand firmly with your two feet on the ground; stand erect in this world. Feel how you are different and how it is right to diverge from the old, to take a new path, to follow your heart and your feelings. Make yourself great and feel, from under your feet, the power of the planet that supports you .

When you do that, you radiate your light over the Earth as an energetic transfer, and you do it in an untroubled way. To no longer hold back your energy, your natural radiance, is a huge step forward. You can invest a lot of energy in holding back your own radiance and strength – but now you let it go! Feel how much peace it gives to you to not have to posture yourself in all kinds of restrictive ways, but instead to just be here and to stand erect. Let that whole wave of energy roll out over the Earth. The Earth is allowed to connect with your soul, here; that is your life purpose.

I now want to ask you to focus on what kind of energy wants to flow through your heart into the world. Feel that energy for a moment and try to carefully put it into words. Is it an energy of gentleness and healing, or one of clarity and decisiveness? Is it more of a female energy or of a male energy that wants to flow through you? Maybe you can also feel if that energy is more than just your own, or is there something or someone who stands beside you and strengthens that process? Enjoy that energy, because you have now connected with your essence and with your teachers, guides, or energies with whom you work and who find themselves aligned with you. It is true collaboration when you do not feel apart from them and when you feel you all are an essential part of this channel.

Finally, I would like to ask you: what wants to come to you from the world as a beautiful and good and positive response in return for what you have to give? Energy returns to you from the world, from the atmosphere of the Earth and humankind, which speaks of validation, recognition, and gratitude. See if you can receive that.

In this way, you come full circle. You form a channel through the shroud, the veil, and you put yourself out there completely. You walk the inner path to liberation past the fear and then you shine your light outwardly. You form a channel for others, touch them with your energy, and then you receive energy in return. You are a human being who participates in two worlds: that of the Earth andthat of the Heavens where your soul resides and from which it comes. As an earthly human, you have a need to receive so you can feel good being here; to receive in return for what you are and give. Let go of any ideas of unworthiness and be the radiant center of giving and receiving in this circle.

I feel deeply connected with you and I honor your courage! I love you dearly. Thank you very much.

Mary Magdalene
