Jennifer Joy Donaldson: January 12th, 2025: I haven’t been to the South of France (yet!) where Mary Magdalen supposedly went after her beloved Yeshua was crucified, but many devotees have taken such a pilgrimage, where, aligning with Mary’s energies has been profoundly moving to them. In our upcoming on-line Course: Yeshua and the Magdalena, we will explore traditions, secret knowledge and the power of channeling Mary directly in meditation with the intention of learning more about this period in her life. The wonderful channeling I am sharing now was published in the Fall, when we first started to develop the course. It seems well worth re-posting in this context, especially for anyone considering enrolling in our course. Of course we’d welcome you with open arms, as Mary and Yeshua do in this channeling!

Yeshua & MM <33

Channeling Yeshua & Mary Magdalen together, Oct. 7, 2024 with Rob Loveland:

Jennifer: So, I’m getting that this is Yeshua and Mary together. But it didn’t take very long, so I’m not trusting that! (Laughing) What?! You’re fast!  Hold on, let me just take a breath…. 

Yeshua & Mary Magdalen: It is our great pleasure to speak with you both tonight. We have been listening in! (Jen laughs). We are grateful for your interest in us, and not surprised.  You both have many, many ties to us both, and of course, there is the curiosity, because you are in your own physical lives. 

You are grounded in the earth with your spirit stretched wide and infinitely, and yet your focus is on the human life and what life was like, and how we found each other and how we lost each other, and how we came together, and how we learned from one another, and what our relationship was, and what were the details, and what did it look like and, and, and where did we go and when? 

And, of course, this is all of interest to you, and we do understand, not only your interest but, also, we support your understanding that the details are not that important. But we are very mindful of your human journey and your desire to know, because both of you are led in this instance, by a heart connection to us, to both of us. And this is very, very old…

It is older than the world that you know,  our knowing of each other, because you have levels of yourselves that are connected with us when we were first on the earth and you were first on the earth. There are levels of you who are connected with us from when we were first birthed, from Mother/Father God. We have known one another for so very long. 

And there is a mystery around our life on earth, there are many versions of tales and the desire to sort and to clarify one from the other. Was this true? Was this not true? You know, it does not really matter. What really matters we will tell you. But to say, “Was Mary in France, or was she in Spain?” Well, she was in France, you see, and it is something which we are perfectly happy to clarify for you. If you have a burning question about how things were, we can, of course, see the entire picture and offer to you some details. 

Rob: I do have a question. 

Yeshua & Mary: Sure. 

Rob: So I’m wondering… I have feelings about …the idea that Mary was in southern France, separated from you, if you were, in fact, deceased at that point, then okay, that separation is a natural part of what the human experience is. But if you were not, and you had to be separated, I just find that incredibly sad. 

Yeshua: And it was so for us, the need to part from one another, but we had also been warned that this would come, that our time together would have a parting. So we understood the necessity of this.  If my family had stayed with me— I’m speaking as Yeshua — then they would have been in constant danger. If I had traveled with them, then I also would have eventually, as the red flag, called attention to their whereabouts, and their safety would have been compromised. You see? 

Now, I did live for a time, but it really was only a short period,  more a matter of two or three years, and not 40 years or 500 years. [Channeled sources vary widely in the number of years Yeshua survived the crucifixion, if indeed he did].  

Rob: Just a question. I mean, that’s something that I ponder to myself, whether I would, if I were ever asked to do something that extreme, would I have the strength to do it?

Yeshua:  Well, you realize that we also were greatly assisted by our heavenly hosts, our Mother, our Father, we each had a very deep faith and deep understanding of our origins within Mother and Father, and we knew that the separation was temporary and that each of us would be completely protected, through the… let me see how to say this…  not ‘protected’ in the sense that we needed to, that we thought it was to seek safety for each of us separately, but ‘protected’ in the sense that there is no, there is no real separation. 

We had learned to telepathically communicate. We had learned to bi-locate.  I was completely able to continue to visit with Mary in her meditations,throughoutthe remaining years of her life. 

Rob: Is that one of the reasons that she chose to seclude herself, to become more of a recluse?

Yeshua:  I will let Mary speak now…

Mary Magdalen: As I became older in my life, and I had concluded much of what I came to France to do, the teachings that were passed on to the community which sprung up around where I was living. And I raised my daughter and saw her married, and I knew that there would be the passing down of the wisdom that had been taught,. After that is when I became more solitary.  And I enjoyed the last few years of my life, largely in meditation, largely with my beloved Yeshua- in communion through the meditation. Yes, yes, and I could see him within myself, and I could see him at times seated with me, but it did not last very long. 

Rob: I see. Thank you so much. 

Yeshua & Mary M: We are grateful for your interest and your commitment. We would be happy to speak with you again, and we can build a more elaborate understanding, if this is your desire…. We are with you.

Mary Magdalen on Forgiveness

by Jennifer, posted in Channeling, Mary Magdalene, spiritual guidance
Mandala by Jennifer Donaldson, 2005

In this channeling group conversation, we were wondering about the practice of forgiveness…and that sparked a really good answer from one of our Council of Love Ascended Masters, my beloved Mary Magdalen. As we approach the New Year, and leave the old one behind, it seems like a valuable spiritual practice to forgive ourselves and each other, to live and let live, to let go and bless. Even more so, it feels like the only path to unity. Enjoy the message… Happy New Year! Love, Jennifer

Jennifer: I’m just aligning and receiving: opening my heart and crown…  giving my ego some toys to play with, maybe some candy. Get him all sugared up. For some reason, my ego is a he– it’s very funny!  …. Ah, so Maggie is here. 

Mary Magdalen: Dear ones, I’m grateful for your presence. I’m grateful for your loving circle. I’m grateful for the opportunity to speak with you after my beloved Yeshua spoke with you at the Fall class [Who’s Yeshua? at OLLI, with Linda Dillon channeling Yeshua on forgiving].  I would be happy to elaborate on both of these topics [the other topic was conspiracy theories, to be posted another time].

Let us begin with forgiveness. Yes, it is extremely important in these times, because it is difficult to hold your divine neutrality without it, whereas if you can say to yourself that you forgive yourself —for your humanity and for everything you didn’t understand that was less than love or that led to an expression of less than the love that you are— you will be elevating yourself to a place where you can observe and offer love both ways, within and without. You see? And forward and backward. 

Think also about loving your self-of-40 years ago, 50, 60, years ago, 10 years ago. Love yourself for the mistakes you made. You are human. Life is about mistakes. The human life is a wonderful arena, a playground, in which to make mistakes. And some of you have become so afraid of making a mistake and so punishing to yourselves when you do so. And this is not helpful. This carries a residue of heaviness within you. 

First of all, you will feel some anger, because no one should have to carry this heaviness for so long. And secondly, you will carry some shame, because you think that others will judge you, or have judged you, or you have somehow created a mess in a way that is not forgivable. It is all forgivable. It is all forgivable. 

As Yeshua said, forgiving is a way to wipe the slate clean, and you do have with your sovereignty, your divine sovereignty, the supreme ability, the divine ability to forgive and to wipe the slate clean. So allow yourself that. Clarity leads to clarity. Allow yourself that purity, which you essentially are,  to be the spokesperson for your being, to be the presence, to be your Divine Presence. 

So, the forgiving within, and the forgiving without, and the forgiving without works in the same way.  You allow others that same tender understanding that they are human. They do not know what they are doing, they do not understand what they are doing, and those few who may understand and still prefer to stir the pot, so to speak, will be forgiven as well, because anyone in the fullness of their own divinity would not choose to create chaos of this type. 

And so they are not in the fullness of their own being. They have perhaps forgotten. They have, perhaps at some point, denied themselves the ability to be fully good, to be fully love. They are, in many cases, punishing themselves so harshly that they believe they are only capable of evil, of ill, of mis-creation, you see, so… it’s, well, “If I am not going to love and I’m not going to be loved, then I’m just going to create as much trouble as I can.” 

You understand this, you have all had twinges of this, perhaps in a situation in which you were held unjustly apart from the love of those who you love. Yes, this is part of the human experience, all aspects of separation. But is it ultimately true that we are separate from one another? No. This is the illusion. This is the illusion, the illusion of separation, you see. So all are, all are forgivable, and you are capable of forgiving all, as you give them the same loving tenderness that you can offer to your own dear self.  And you know your own ability to love and your own desire and longing to be understood and accepted and loved, despite your faults, despite your choices, which at times have caused some harm. 

….. I so enjoy our coming together in this way. It is a great pleasure for me, and thank you for all that you are contributing to the world at this time by your being you, in the many ways that that expresses.  

Blessings on each of you.

Hearts & Hands Together

by Jennifer, posted in BE LOVE, Channeling, Jeshua & Mary Magdalen, Mary Magdalene, relationships, spiritual guidance, Yeshua, Yeshua & Mary Magdalene

Dear Hearts, along with Christmas preparations, I’ve been engaged in the excitement of planning our new winter course Yeshua & The Magdalena with Rob Loveland, Lighthouse team member and fellow channel & teacher with the Council of Love.

I’m late with my tree and stuff because I find the subject of the course so absorbing… truly, these classes are a fulfillment of a lifetime’s passion, one might say obsession at times! Both of us have read and researched widely in 20-21st c. sources about Jesus and Mary Magdalen, as well as going deeply into personal relationships with each of theses two Ascended Masters.

On top of that, we have explored the mystical connection called “channeling.”  We learned channeling from The Council of Love’s founder, Linda Dillon, a few years ago and have been channeling ever since. As our readers know, many of the messages we receive have been shared on this blog. Last winter I began to get messages from Yeshua about creating a course where he and Mary Magdalen could be the topic and the co-teachers. How exciting and beautiful!!

So, Rob and I have been zooming weekly for most of a year, discussing and channeling for any new instructions, refinements or understandings to make the upcoming course even more wonderful. We have been having long, thoughtful and heart expansive sessions with both Yeshua and Mary Magdalen to prepare for offering this course to you, now, to start January 25th.

Today, we want to share with you Yeshua’s invitation to join us.

“My Dear Brothers and Sisters, I am most pleased to be able to welcome you to this moment, to this opportunity for a little chat with you. We would like very much to have the opportunity to sit with you, be with you, be in community with you for the duration of a class. 

We understand there are a great many questions about our lives, mine and my beloved Mary Magdalene. We know there are lots of questions and that this is a point of interest, and that is fine. We would be happy to assist Rob and Jennifer in unearthing some of those historic details which would settle your minds, because curiosity is one thing, but it is also quite delightful to have it satisfied. And there are reasons why there are so many varying tales. You may have heard this, or you may have heard that. 

We would first of all, though, like you to know that we are most, most looking forward to the opportunity just to be with you, to be learning with you. And we do learn so much about you when you bring yourselves forward like this. We want to learn with you. We want to play with you, laugh with you, share tenderness, share insights. 

We want to encourage you in your spiritual growth, each of you growing so quickly. Now we wish to be able to give you the opportunity to have all of your own emotional, spiritual, mental needs completely met by us in this class. For the duration of this class, we will be attending to each one of you. 

This is a very personal choice that you have made, and we are delighted and honored to be so chosen to spend this time with you. So there will be lots of learning, and there will be lots of play, there will be lots of discussion, and there will be lots of new insights, lots of deepening the knowing of who you really are. And you know we will tell you that we love you. So there will be lots and lots of love. So for now, we will say farewell and we will meet again soon. This is Yeshua.“

…..Each time I read it, I’m moved by Yeshua’s statement that he and his Magdalena are looking forward to spending time together with us as a group,  to learning together, to laughter and play as well as insights and details from their historical life on Earth. We will have lots of questions, and they will answer generously. 

Most of all, by embarking on this journey, we will open to huge personal support from them, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. In the course, we will expand our understanding of who they were and continue to be, who we are becoming and how we are joining our hearts and hands, together lifting up the world.  

FOR MORE INFORMATION

The other morning in my meditation, I got the vision of these two beloved teachers joining hands in my heart. Rob and I put our hands in next, then we all turned our hands flat, on top of each other, and began to circle clock-wise as in a dance. As we twirled, more and more hands joined ours. It was a beautiful and exciting vision, then Rob collaged the graphic at the top of this post. 

Thank you, dear friends, for following these posts and for sharing our excitement. For now, I wish you all the greatest of joy in your days as we move into the Solstice and the blessings of our various holidays.  Love, Jennifer 

The Choosing of the Mother

by Rob Loveland, posted in archangels, Mary Magdalene, spiritual info, Upcoming Course, Yeshua

Prelude to the Christmas Story

Many know the biblical story of Archangel Gabriel announcing to the young Mary, “Don’t be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. Behold, you will conceive in your womb and give birth to a son, and shall name him ‘Jesus.’ He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High.” [WEB Luke 1:30-32].  However, few know the full story of what led up to that point, which was so beautifully told through the channeling of Edgar Cayce.  For me, this is such an inspiring and fascinating story that I’ve made it a habit for many years to read it each Christmas season.  It’s that time of year again, so please allow me to show you the more fulsome picture as it unfolded so many years ago.

According to Edgar Cayce (specifically, the 5749 Reading series), Mary was born to Anna and Joachim who belonged to the Essene sect. In recognition of her spiritual destiny, they gave the 4-year-old Mary over to service in the Essene Temple (located at the School of the Prophets at Mt Carmel).  Mary was one of twelve such maidens to be prepared as a possible channel for the prophesied Messiah.  In fact, “Essene” meant “expectancy,” since they worked for generations to prepare the pathway.  In the temple service, the twelve maidens were trained in physical, mental, and spiritual purity, as well as the prophesies related to the Messiah.

When Mary was between 12-13, the time had come for the choice of which maiden would be the channel.  When all the maidens climbed the temple steps toward the altar for morning prayers, the sunrise illuminated the whole scene in a purple and gold hue.  As Mary reached the top step, a shadow passed over Mary alone, and there was thunder and lightening.  Archangel Gabriel then appeared and led her to the altar.  These were the indicators of choosing, leaving no doubt about the divine will of who would be the channel for the Blessed One.

I love the beauty and holiness of the scene, and I often wonder what Mary must have felt at that time.  While she had received years of preparatory training, did she really have any idea of the extreme joys, the weight of such responsibility, or the inconceivable hardship and heartache that she would have to bear?  How can one not be filled with awe?  I am humbled just thinking about it, and for me, it is now an inextricable part of the Christmas story.

This story and many others like it will be covered in an upcoming 6-part Council of Love eCourse on Yeshua and the Magdalena.  Starting on January 25, 2025 and running through 5 April 2025, on alternate Saturdays, Jennifer Donaldson and I will walk through the inspired lives and timeless message of these two Ascended Masters, as told through many traditions and channeled sources, not the least of which is Linda Dillon, author of The Jesus Book.  Beyond what happened in the past, they are still present and continue to teach us today!  Please consider joining us for what will no doubt be inspiring, thought provoking, and fun!

The Magdalena: Additional Guidance on Hope

by Rob Loveland, posted in Channeling, Mary Magdalene, spiritual guidance, spiritual info

Rob: I think this is going to be the Magdalena. So, I’m sitting on the bench in my sacred landscape, overlooking the water. She’s admiring the view.

So Mary, I’m not sure really what to talk about. I drew the card on Hope. [I’m] happy to talk about that, if you have anything to share. … I’m just trying to go deeper and just release more, surrender more.

Mary Magdalene: Greetings. This is the Magdalena. And yes, Rob, I am admiring your landscape here. You were commenting earlier to your teammate about formerly being an artist. I would suggest you still are. This is quite the creation!

So the whole idea of hope, as I think you know, is really living from, operating from, that place of absolute knowing of who you are and what the Divine Plan is and how you fit within that. And yes, Rob, for you, it is knowing within yourself what wisdom it is that you have to share and to offer. Whether you are an active teacher or not in the formal sense does not matter. You find ways to express your wisdom in any situation, when in any interaction.

And that wisdom is being able to express to others who THEY are, who YOU ALL are, where you come from, why you are here and where you are going. And the time is nigh …

Rob: [Chuckles] Sorry, I’m laughing at that word.

Magdalena: The time is close when so much will be revealed. It is the time to hold fast to what it is that you know, to that wisdom within yourself, being able to discern that what you see in the outside world is not really what’s happening behind the scenes. There’s a much grander plan at work.

So hold to what you know [and] tie yourself to that bedrock. And, as the Mother [has said], just have fun with it. There is no reason at all, no matter what outside appearances may indicate, there is no reason at all to be dour, to be fearful.

Know that all of it, everything that is happening is part of the Mother’s plan, and it is all unfolding exactly as it should. It may not be the way that you prefer, but we both know, that does not matter. When you commit yourself to service to all others, then what you think, what you want, what you desire, is simply that — to be of service to others.

And yes, the ideas that were coming to you last night, the technologies that will soon be released on planet for the betterment of humankind, they’re coming. If you desire to be part of that and to help that along, then we absolutely encourage you to put your energy there, to put your resources there. It’s just another form of being of service.

If that’s what you desire, then make that a creation. Make that part of your future. Whether you do or you don’t, does not matter. Whatever it is that you choose to do, you will do so, as is your natural way of being, you will exude the wisdom that is within you, for it cannot sit still. It wants to be expressed.

So be that channel. Be that blessing to others.

And I would suggest, since it is also on your mind, the interaction that you had recently with your leadership at work that you found bothersome, do not worry about it. Again, with your presence, you are exuding the wisdom that is within you, for you cannot do otherwise.

But I would suggest that if it does bother you, then take an active part in expressing that, helping the others. But as we both know, this is just something that happens, something to teach you, something as an indicator to look within yourself. Why does that interaction bother you? There is something there for you. And more often than not, it is tugging on those old strings, that whole notion of lack of self-worth, of judging yourself. Let that go.

Well, I think I’ve spoken enough for the moment. I would be happy to take questions if anyone has any. Otherwise, I’ll just sit here and enjoy the view. 🙂
