A bold new vision of Mother Mary as a holy priestess and spiritual master

Many women have trouble with the image of the Virgin Mary, a young woman whose most esteemed quality has been celibacy. Yet, as Marguerite Mary Rigoglioso, Ph.D., reveals in inspiring depth, Mary was not just a docile maiden chosen by God to be the mother of Jesus. She was a great spiritual master in her own right: a sought-after healer and holy priestess who continued her public work long after Jesus’s resurrection.

Examining apocryphal texts as well as revelations from respected contemporary seers, Rigoglioso presents a revolutionary new understanding of Mother Mary and shows how her wisdom can help those on the spiritual path. The author explores largely ignored periods of Mary’s life, including her time as leader of the early Christian community and the supreme teacher to other spiritual teachers, including Jesus and his beloved companion, Mary Magdalene. She looks at Mother Mary’s teachings of love, compassion, and inner power and reveals how it was her achievement of extraordinary yogic powers and womb abilities that enabled her to conceive Jesus in a non-biological way and resurrect his body. She also examines Mary’s assumption into heaven and explains how her powers as a great spiritual master enabled her to transform into a goddess at the end of her time on earth.

Revealing the secret life of Mother Mary as a deeply revered community leader, miracle-worker, and advanced spiritual practitioner, Rigoglioso shows how nurturing a relationship with the world’s most famous holy woman can provide healing, empowerment, and the development of your own womb powers.
