I invite you to meditate on the images of the Stations of the Cross from my pilgrimage to the Chapel of the Madonna in the Italian village where I lived in my twenties, and later set my novel The Serpent’s Tale, which explores the true teachings of the Rose Lineage that form the foundation for this weekend’s Paschal Rites.
The sacrifice of the Sun-Son King and, later, the sacrifice of the Bull as the embodiment of the Sun-Son King, to ensure the regeneration of life on earth and the fertility of the land, weaves its way through the rituals and myths of the Rose Lineage cultures from…
- Sumerian Inanna-Dumuzi
- Babylonian Ishtar-Tammuz
- Canaan Baal-Anath
- Egyptian Isis-Osiris
- Greek Demeter-Persephone
- Roman Cybele-Attis and Venus-Adonis
- to Magdalene-Yeshua
The Stations of the Cross can be seen to symbolise the stages of your Soul’s descent into the dark night of the Soul before its rebirth and resurrection.
- Yeshua takes up his cross – your Soul accepts their challenge
- Yeshua falls for the first time – you lose faith for the first time
- Yeshua meets his Mother – the divine Mother appears to you
- Veronica wipes Yeshua’s face – She comforts and purifies you
- Yeshua falls for the second time – you lose faith for the second time
- Yeshua is nailed to the cross – you surrender in full trust
- Yeshua is laid in the tomb – you experience an Ego death so that your Soul can be reborn
To embark on this profound journey of Ego death and Soul Rebirth, join me today on Good Friday to descend the 7 Gates and ascend them tomorrow on Holy Saturday, with access to the recordings until the Ascension Rites on 29 May.
“Thank you, Annabel, for the most incredible, glorious offering. The space you held was so magnificent and very deeply appreciated deep within my Soul. It is a blessing to be in presence with you. I am so very grateful for all that has been revealed during this time and the way this container has supported me in this process. Thank you.” Jessica
By donation only to Unseen, to whom we’ve donated £10,920 since 2020 from our annual Resurrection Rites.
May all beings and Mother Earth be healed and reborn through these ancient Rose Lineage rites of death and resurrection.
In honour of and devotion to Yeshua, his sacrifice as the Son-Sun God, his Mother Mary and Mary Magdalene, his “Beloved Disciple” and Koinonos.
