The Gospel of Mary Magdalene tells a very different love story from the one we've come to refer to as Christianity. As ancient and authentic as any of the gospels that the Christian Bible contains, Mary's scripture says we are not sinful, and we are not to feel shame for being human. In fact, our purpose is just that - to be fully human and acknowledge our limited ego alongside the limitless soul within us.
In The Mary Magdalene Oracle, Meggan Watterson, a Harvard-trained theologian and scholar of the divine feminine, distills Mary's radical wisdom into a 44-card journey of awakening. The deck leads you card by card through the spiritual teachings of Mary's gospel as well as the pivotal moments in the legend of her life. Each card represents a key aspect of the spiritual transformation that ancient Christianity aimed to inspire within us, centuries before the institutional church took shape - from The Seven Powers of the Ego, to The Red Thread and The Cave of Eggs, to Resurrection and Ascension.
The deck is illustrated with gorgeous original artwork that honors human diversity as well as Mary's historical origins in the Middle East, and the accompanying guidebook illuminates her transcendent message of divine and human love.
