According to the Christian Calendar, this post belongs to March 25th. And now that I think it thoroughly, seems I should have started this Advent Calendar Blog (that is how I refer to it with my friends) with the Annunciation.
The Annunciation is the celebration of the announcement by the Arcangel Gabriel to Mother Mary that she would become the mother of Jesus. Gabriel told Mary to name her son Yeshua, meaning "YHWH is salvation". According to Luke the Annunciation occurred "in the sixth month" of Elizabeth's pregnancy with John the Baptist. So the Cristian Calendar made an approximation of the northern vernal equinox nine full months before Christmas, the ceremonial birthday of Jesus, which started the tradition to celebrate Annunciation on March 25th.
Recently a friend of mine gave me a lovely book about the history of Mother Mary, looking back through the year she has healed me and guided me like a strong but loving mother in so many crossroads. So book in hand I will dedicate the next 5 posts to Mother Mary.
We all have a divine feminine and a divine masculine, both are equally important to fulfil our life purpose. Our patriarchal society focuses on the strong male decision-making mode, the doer within us, but to ascend to the Christ consciousness and give birth of the Christ with us in our heart, is not something we do, it is something we receive from the Holy Spirit, just like Mary did.
- we need to quite our minds and listen! we need to try to be attentive and leave judgement behind so we can hear the angels whispers like Mary did. Or dream about it like Joseph did.
Con amor,
Paola
