Mary Magdalene Pilgrimage with Ariana Brackenbury (May 3-20 2023)
"Day 2: Thursday May 4 – Saint. Baume
On Thursday morning our private bus transports us to the Grotte de Sainte Marie Madeleine (Cave of Mary Magdalene).
Leaving at 9:00 am we will arrive at the base of the walk up in time to arrive at the top for the 11 o'clock mass. The walk
up to the grotto is a gradual uphill climb doable in an average of 45 minutes depending on fitness level. The energy of the
forest on the walk up is powerful. We walk along a tranquil trail through the forest on a path that has been walked for
centuries by Kings and Queens and others in Pilgrimage, arriving at the beautiful cave.
This mountain, sacred to Isis, has been considered holy ground for thousands of years. The energy of the divine feminine is
strong here. There are many versions of Mary's life in Egypt, England, Provence France, Languedoc France and elsewhere
- several of which said she was part of the Isis lineage as was Mother Mary. Some say there were sacred ceremonies done
in the cave in the traditions of the priestesses of Isis. You are encouraged to let go of what you think to be the truth and
allow the divine feminine energy to connect to your heart. The natural water here is reported to have healing properties."
