The Secret Teachings of Mary Magdalene: Sophia Eve Ophiuchus Gaia and the Number 13

Mary Magdalene and the Number 13

Mary Magdalene is mentioned 13 times in the Bible; More than any other disciple of Yehoshua (Jesus). She was considered the 13th but most prized disciple by Jesus as reported by many of the other disciples on various occasions especially in the noncannonical texts (this is for a reason). Many would take this to have negative connotations. This is because the number 13 is often tied to death and superstition. The perfect display of this is in the fear surrounding Friday the 13th, or in the fact that many elevators in the United States do not contain a 13th floor.

Believe it or not, the fear of the number thirteen runs deeper than some superficial superstition, this is once again tied to the fear of women's potential, wisdom and power.

The Moon, Womb and Water

Thirteen is the number of moon cycles contained within each Lunar Year. This link here seems like a stretch, but let me continue. The moon is directly connected to two things here on earth, the water's tides as the moon pulls on it, and women's monthly cycles. Although today, because of many external and genetic factors and etc., many women today do not always bleed in coordinance with the moon. It is still true though that women on avg have a cycle of about 28 days and when the body is in homeostasis, a woman is more likely to notice that her womb sheds during one phase of the moon or the other.

This connects Mary Magdalene to the number 13, moon, blood red life force of the womb. See her above with the egg of life, a feminine fertility symbol. One of her main associated symbols. Could also be hinting to the fact that she did indeed give birth, would be worth looking into. This would definitely explain the association of eggs with the Christian version of Easter outside of its associations with the goddess Eostre.

Lets even examine Mary Magdalene's name, Magdala a town named after an ancient spring where Phoenicians, proto-Hebrews, and ancient Jews would go and ritualistically cleanse themselves. Even her first name showing relation to the divine waters Mar=sea). [Click this video for more information. SACRED SPRING OF MAGDALA ]

Ophiuchus & the Fall of the Feminine Priestesshood

Now let's get back to the 13th constellation. Although there is 12 zodiacal signs, there is a 13th located on the astronomical ecliptic, between Sagittarius and Scorpio named Ophichus. This sign is a snake also called Serpens in battle with a man.

Earliest known records referring to this constellation show that it was linked to the slaying of Pytho, the spent guardian of the Oracle of Delphi and the Omphalos. Pytho, the great guardian serpent was slain by the god Apollo. This battle was personified and preserved in the stars as the first mythos behind the constellation of Ophiuchus. The story relating to this battle is one that speaks of Apollo convincing the male seafarers to rape and pillage the city of Pythos, rename it Delphi, kidnap the Pythia (High Priestess), and take over the Priestesshood for themselves through the ordinance of Apollo. Here's how the story connects. The guardian serpent Pytho was guardian of the Omphalos (navel) of the Earth Mother Gaia. Apollo coming in and destroying her rites and traditions ultimately led to the shift in matriarchal religious systems to that being only of male.

The Serpent: from Sophia to Eden

The serpent another demonized figure in modern day abrahamic traditions, probably because of the actions previously stated in history, has shifted from its original meaning. In Gnostic Christianity as well as many other traditions found globally, the serpent represents 2 constants. The feminine principle and wisdom. Besides the many serpent goddesses and gods found across time, there is one that I will mention specifically here. According to the Gnostic traditions, the divine feminine is represented by a grand serpent named Sophia. Her name literally means Wisdom itself (see its deeper meaning through the word SOPHistication). To prove her serpent form, let's break down her name. The Greek word Sophos means Wisdom and is where we get the name from. -Oph/-Ophi/Ophis denote a serpent or shape-shifting appearance through words like not only Ophiuchus, but also Ophiology, the study of snakes, and ophiolatry or the worship of snakes. I hope that I have established enough of a linguistic and etymological connection to show you that Sophia was indeed represented by a Divine Serpent.

Venus, Apples and the Eastern Star

What serpent is the only serpent that seems to speak to anyone in the bible? The serpent in the garden. Who else would it be to convince Eve to eat from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. I just want to add, the serpent in the garden told her, she its from it, she shall surely not die... she didnt. So maybe she was worth listening to. You cannot have ascension without the experience of opposites and duality, because that's what good and even are, opposites. What fruit is typically represented here? The apple. Why? Well, cut an apple horizontally, what do you see? A five pointed star. I must also add that it is not ironic that the serpent in the image below of Eve and Adam in the garden is depicted as black. Definitely side eyeing the artist but anyways...

There are many planets and stars in our sky, but there's only one referring to the bright and shining morning star (Also called the Eastern Star...👀)... that being venus. Why is the 5 pointed star associated with Venus? Because every 8 years Venus forms 5 pointed star in our heavens. When studying magic, especially sympathetic magic one will see that Venus is indeed the planet associated with apples. This is why. Venus is also the same planet Jesus refers to himself as (the bright morning star). Lucifer does also refer to himself as the bright morning star, BUT there is evidence to support that this reference might actually be the sun in this case instead of venus. I will expound at a later date regarding this topic.

Reclaiming the Forbidden Wisdom

So in essence, what is all of this attempting to show you. That the number 13 is demonized because it is a heavily occultic number highly associated with the hidden unknown and mystery. The same goes for Mary Magdalene Ophiuchus and the wise snake, Sophia. Mary Magdalene deemed a whore, Eve, a defiant who cause all of our descent and pain, Sophia the evil devil trickster snake. Somebody's lying. Lets just say this, did the snake ever kill anyone in the bible? Nope. But who was responsible for majority of the deaths within the bible? I will leave this unanswered for you to draw your own conclusions. The story is being told by the victor and not those slain to keep their story hidden and in secret.

The truth is just like in the story of Apollo conquering the city of Pythos murdering Pytho the snake, taking the priestesshood and turning it into a male priestly class, and destroying Gaia's omphalos(navel or central spring/ well), brung about the destruction of the divine feminine across the world in her many forms so is the hijacking of the mystery behind the snake and it's great treasures and secrets hidden within its wisdom that it is waiting to share with us.

Just like in the case of Ophiuchus battling Serpens, women's power was and still is being subdued and supressed by the masculine principle (As above, so below). Just as in both these cases, so is the demonization and the hijacking of women's rites and spiritual practices devoted to the Mother Goddess of which whom Mary Magdalene and Yehoshuwa (Jesus) were priests and priestesses of. Don't believe me? Read the Nag Hammadi texts and specifically, the Gospel of Judas. Jesus confirms that Judas is right about Jesus being from the 8th realm of Barbelo also called Sophia.

To reclaim the serpent, the womb, the number 13 and Mary's sanctification and pontetial deification is to reclaim the divine feminine buried beneath centuries of patriarchal revision limiting our views of the contributions to society and spirituality as a whole by women, especially those like Mary Magdalene.

This is but one of Mary Magdalene's many secrets, she has so much to share with us if we only listen. If anyone doesn't believe any part of what I'm saying, please go do your own research and confirm or deny it for yourself. For those who have stuck around this long. Thank you for reading.

Rosalind Bennett, Hugh Fraser, and David Suchet in Agatha Christie's Poirot (1989) The Adventure of the Western Star

S2E9

Poirot is thrilled to receive an invitation from renowned Belgian actress Marie Marvelle. She has been receiving anonymous notes about the Western Star, a valuable diamond purchased by her husband at a cut-rate price several years before. The notes speak to the mystical nature of the diamonds and that they should be returned to their rightful owners. The next day, Lady Yardly claims to have received similar notes about her own fabulous diamond, the Eastern Star. When Poirot and Hastings visit Lord and Lady Yardly the diamond is stolen in a daring robbery. Needless to say, none of this sits well with Poirot who finds he has a very tight knot to untie.

*Poirot is seen placing a card with the words "Mlle. Marie Marvelle." on top of the flowers he has brought with him to the apartment before putting final touches to the tea table. When he gazes at the bouquet before he picks it up later on, the card is nowhere to be seen.

The 3rd Occurrence of 442

written by Will Schumacher

Per my last post the towers at 9/11 fell after 442 minutes. There were 442 nuclear power plants in operation at the time of the 3/11 Japan earthquake/nuclear event. 442 is the gematria of Enoch translated which is a type of the rapture.

My thinking was that this 442 number is a rapture number. It is in a way but there was another 442 event that I could never understand but I believe I have a better understanding now. So it leads me to believe this 442 number is a judgement number. I’ll try to explain it.

Enoch’s gematria of 442 =”translated” is from this verse:

Hebrews 11:5 By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.

3/11 was 23958 days from Japan’s first nuclear event, the bombing of Hiroshima during WW2 on August 6, 1945. 23958 = 33 x 726. Strong’s G726 = “harpazo” or what we call the Rapture.

This is verse 23958 about the coming of Jesus:

Matthew 23:39 For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.

The verse jump from Matthew 23:39 to Hebrews 11:5 is 6220. Enoch was born after 622 years.

3/11=311. 622=311x2. All numbers point to Enoch.

This is verse 6220. It has a gematria of 2718:

Joshua 15:17 And Othniel the son of Kenaz, the brother of Caleb, took it: and he gave him Achsah his daughter to wife.

This verse about Enoch has the matching gematria of 2718:

Genesis 5:21 And Enoch lived sixty and five years, and begat Methuselah:

So Joshua 15:17 has something to do with Enoch. Let’s see the story.

Joshua 15:15-17 And he went up thence to the inhabitants of Debir: and the name of Debir before was Kirjathsepher. 16) And Caleb said, He that smiteth Kirjathsepher, and taketh it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter to wife. 17) And Othniel the son of Kenaz, the brother of Caleb, took it: and he gave him Achsah his daughter to wife.

Kirjathsepher means “the city of books”. Othniel means ”the lion of God”. Achsah means “anklets” or “fetters”. She is in bondage to something.

So we have the Lion of God taking a city of books and marrying someone in bondage. We have the New Testament picture of this in the book of Revelation. This is the only time Jesus is called a lion in the Bible.

Revelation 5:1-5 And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals. 2) And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof? 3) And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon. 4) And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look thereon. 5) And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.

Further, Kirjathsepher is renamed Debir. Debir is the same word used for the Holy of Holies, where God resides.

In my posts on Revelation and Rebekah I showed why I thought this book that the Lion of God was holding was the Book of life.

This story of Othniel is a picture of the redemption work of Jesus and sitting down at the right hand of the Father as the owner of the Church/Enoch/Book of Life.

Then the other 442 event.

On June 1, 2015 a Chinese ship called “Eastern Star” sank after going into a violent storm. Sadly 442 people died and thankfully 12 lived.

The “Eastern Star” reminded me of the star from the east that was the sign of Jesus’ first coming.

Matthew 2:2 Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.

June 1, 2015 was 1543 days after 3/11. According to Wikipedia it sank at 21:32 which begins minute 1293. The numbers 1293 and 1543 can be seen in the second half of the story of Achsah.

Joshua 15:17-19 And Othniel the son of Kenaz, the brother of Caleb, took it: and he gave him Achsah his daughter to wife. 18) And it came to pass, as she came unto him, that she moved him to ask of her father a field: and she lighted off her ass; and Caleb said unto her, What wouldest thou? 19) Who answered, Give me a blessing; for thou hast given me a south land; give me also springs of water. And he gave her the upper springs, and the nether springs.

After Othniel marries Achsah she asks Othniel to talk to her Father Caleb about something she wants. She tells her father she has been given a “south land” which means a “dry land” so she wants the upper springs and lower springs. Strong’s H1293 (matching time of incident) =”blessing”. Strong’s H1543 (matching day count)=”springs”.

I will say I don’t have a 100% confidence in what I think this means, but I will give my 2 cents worth. Springs in the Bible are “living waters”, they are abundant life or eternal life. I think that part is clear.

However this ��upper and lower water/spring” and “dry land” remind me of Creation.

Genesis 1:6-9 And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters. 7) And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so. 8) And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day. 9) And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.

In creation you have heaven dividing the upper and lower waters and dry land appearing. Achsah is given dry land and now she wants and upper and lower water from her father/the Father.

Is this a reference to the new creation coming? The bible refers to a new heavens and earth with our eternal life dwelling with God-like Debir-in the Holy of Holies.

Revelation 21 1-3 Then I saw “a new heaven and a new earth,”[a] for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. 2) I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. 3) And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God.

The Eastern Star has a hint of Noah’s ark to it also. 12 were saved, 442 died in this storm of water. In Noah’s story there was water from above and water from below flooding the earth, then dryland appeared. The 12 saved is like the 12 tribes of Israel. The Church is part of spiritual Israel.

So this 442 number must be a judgement number otherwise 442 would have been saved. The Rapture is a judgment.

This is verse 442. It is about the judgement of Sodom and Gomorrah:

Genesis 18:17 And the Lord said, Shall I hide from Abraham that thing which I do;

There are 2 verses in the Bible with a gematria of 442. The first is about who is in charge of a nation. Whoever is in charge is in charge of judgement. The second is about judgement:

1 Kings 22:47 There was then no king in Edom: a deputy was king.

So the number 442 appears to be about judgement. When 442/ judgement is complete the last tower will fall, this is 9/11. Part of the coming judgment is the Rapture where the Church is saved-this is 3/11. The third 442 from the Eastern Star is that judgement of the righteous -the 12 saved- and the judgement of the wicked- the 442 that perished.

Prompt 216

“So we all know that Damian is trying to sneak in a new animal, right?” 

 “I mean, yeah, he only starts sneaking around like that when he’s sneaking something he shouldn’t be, and the box was pretty obvious…” 

“Are we going to ask about it or…” 

“Nah, plausible deniability when Alfred or Bruce inevitably finds it.” 

Later, Duke will regret listening to Dick and Steph, because there is now a massive fucking dragon glowering down at all of them from the back yard with nine heads. Each of which do not seem pleased. It might be time to question what Damian might have brought home this time…

serenno and mandalore being in the same neighborhood entertains me greatly as an enjoyer of worldbuilding like

mandalorians are based on multiple historical seafaring peoples. and they're a fairly aggressive warrior culture for the most part, too. surely they fucked with the planets around them. surely they raided and pillaged a little, or maybe even settled.

what i'm getting at is i think it would be funny if serennian and mandalorian royalty were related and count dooku is, idk, satine's 28th cousin thrice removed and will casually drop that in a conversation (and it's not like that's a huge leap of logic either bc all royals are related anyway)

Every time I try to do a modern AU I want to change up Padme's background

Her face is EE Jewish, her accent is American, her fashion is Mongolian(-inspired), her name is Indian(-inspired), her house is Italian--

And in a modern setting it's unlikely for all to be true at once so. You gotta pick.

I think I usually go with either Mongolian-Italian or Indian-Italian (racially), religiously and maybe ethnically Jewish? Aaaaaand probably Natalie Portman's own "immigrated to the US very young" background because same, which is then the accent.

Me pointing at Padme: I'm gonna project this one specific thing on her and you can't stop me
