Mary
Magdalene
Mary
is Patron Saint of Perfumes...she created an amber coloured oil from
a plant called Spikenard which appears on the current Pope Francis's
Coat of Arms. She is known as the Myrrh bearer. Magdala means
elegant, great, tower, it is also a prosperous fishing village by the
Sea of Galilee the birthplace of Mary in Israel. Mary represents the
feminine energy.
The
amygdala is the position in the brain that is said to store emotions
from past experiences which may have proved difficult, dangerous
or emotive to us. It can trigger in us that fight or flight response
when past traumas, memories, feelings come flooding back causing us
to react. This is an area that needs healing. The feminine part of
the brain is all about love, nurturing, caring, compassion, empathy,
tenderness and kindness. The Amygdala helps us to experience
religious rapture one moment and dread of the unknown the next. There
is duality in the Amygdala. When functioning well the brain becomes
healed, love and light radiate in abundance our emotional
intelligence is in full operational mode, when its not all hell
breaks loose. Said to be the feminine portal to the third eye found
at the back of the brain. Oils such as rose, frankincense and myrrh
help to stimulate and sooth the amygdala, feminine skills to create
calm. Everything has a musical connotation and perfume is no
different it is said to have top notes and base notes in its
production. Could it be the vibration of the musical note of the
perfumes or oils Mary used on Jesus that created her Religious
Rapture.
We
must learn to stay balanced when feelings with memories flood us they
are of the past and we must stay grounded in the present before
responding in the here and now and not from past memories. That's not
to say past memories are not trying to keep us safe, just be aware
this is a similar situation, not the same one and if you react badly
the people in the now have not got a clue what is happening, they
were not there the first time you had this experience.
Was
the name of Mary Magdalene used to create the word Amygdala –
Amigdala..........the flower used in the oils is on the Coat of Arms
of the current Pope. High praise indeed all things considered, so
thank you Francis for accentuating the feminine. Change the Y for an
I and you hide the words Dalai Lama it would appear more people
admired Mary Magdalene than we realised. Perhaps we should all grow a
little Spikenard in our gardens in appreciated of the feminine. x
