700 years after the last Cathar was executed, their prophecy is being fulfilled. The teachings they died to protect are rising again, and at the center of that return is Mary Magdalene. This post explores who the Cathars really were, why they revered Magdalene, and why their message still matters today.
Here is the Cathar Creed …as I’ve studied and learned to Embody this Way of Love🌹That was the “church” that Yeshua and Mary Magdalene Walked and Built.
Today we honour the Cathar Prophecy, shared by Guillaume Belibaste in 1321, the last know Parfait, “In 700 years the laurel will become green again, good people will return.”🌿🌿🌿
That 700 years later is now.
Our time is here!🌹🌹🌹
💙⚜️ THE CHURCH OF LOVE CATHAR CREED ⚜️💙
It has no fabric, only understanding.
It has no membership, save those who know they belong.
It has no rivals, because it is non-competitive.
It has no ambition, it seeks only to serve.
It knows no boundaries, for nationalism’s are unloving.
It is not of itself, because it seeks to enrich all groups and religions.
It acknowledges all great Teachers of all the ages who have shown the truth of Love.
Those who participate, practice the Truth of Love in all their beings.
There is no walk of life or nationality that is a barrier.
Those who are, know.
It seeks not to teach but to be and by being, enrich.
It recognizes that the way we are may be the way of those around us because we are that way.
It recognizes the whole planet as a Being of which we are a part.
It recognizes that the time has come for the supreme transmutation, the ultimate alchemical act of conscious change of the ego into a voluntary return to the whole.
It does not proclaim itself with a loud voice, but in the subtle realms of loving.
It salutes all those in the past who have blazoned the path but have paid the price.
It admits no hierarchy or structure, for no one is greater than another.
Its members shall know each other by their deeds and being and by their eyes and by no other outward sign save the fraternal embrace.
Each one will dedicate their life to the silent loving of their neighbor and environment and the planet, whilst carrying out their task, however exalted or humble.
Each one will dedicate their life to the silent loving of their neighbor and environment and the planet, whilst carrying out their task, however exalted or humble.
It recognizes the supremacy of the great idea which may only be accomplished if the human race practices the supremacy of Love.
It has no reward to offer either here or in the hereafter, save that of the infallible joy of being and loving.
Each shall seek to advance the cause of understanding, doing good by stealth and teaching only by example.
They shall heal their neighbor, their community and our Planet.
They shall know no fear and feel no shame and their witness shall prevail over all odds.
It has no secret, no arcanum, no initiation save that of true understanding of the power of Love and that, if we want it to be so, the world will change but only if we change ourselves first.
All those who belong, belong; they belong to the Church of Love.
Indeed, Sharon. Perfection is already here, just really good at hide and seek. Most folks are too busy scrolling or repenting for imaginary crimes to notice. But every now and then, someone like you squints between the veils and whispers, “Gotcha.” 😉
I assume that , like many others reading your post, my knowledge of the Cathars has been tripled in a short read. Though I knew that they were considered heretical, I didn't know that they held Mary Magdalene and her teachings in reverence and as valid.
I had not heard about the 700 years but it's interesting that it coincides--roughly--with other prophecies and endings of ages like the Mayan calendar and the Kali Yuga. Like the old Dylan song goes, "The times, they are a-changing."
It's true that it doesn't look like it when you focus on the news but that's just the stink from the landfill of consciousness. On its way to extinction. I remember a quote from Jesus, something about looking to the fields and see them already in bloom. When we look at the field of consciousness we can see the green laurel and all the shoots that are sprouting in our world.
The Mayans, the Yugas, the Magdalene, they all got the memo: the age of hierarchy is over. Time to stop feeding the pyramid schemes of heaven and start cultivating that green laurel field of the heart.
"While my understanding of biblical scriptures is still limited, I deeply value your posts for the perspective they offer. They inspire me to spend more time exploring the scriptures on my own. Thank you for sharing your wisdom. 🙏"
If you’re looking for a solid deep dive into the Cathars, The Perfect Heresy by Stephen O’Shea is a great place to start. It’s well-written, historically grounded, and reads almost like a novel. For something more detailed and scholarly, Montaillou by Emmanuel Le Roy Ladurie uses actual Inquisition records to paint a vivid picture of daily life in a Cathar village decades after the crusade. Both are excellent, depending on how deep you want to go.
Much thanks. Yes, please. 9 months long was the seige? I had a history professor who had an interesting amount to say about this topic. I loved the lectures.
You know, I’m gonna have to look this up, but I have it in my head (messy mind palace) that because the Cathars were industrious and lived in a walled city that the siege by the pope (Clement? II? who famously said, “Kill them all; let God sort it out.”) lasted two years.
Ima have to Read something besides the news this morning. 🙏🏼
I really appreciate this background and in general, resonate with what you are saying. I have parts of me that have struggle with gnosticism in regards to matter as being evil and created by the evil one verses the spiritual realm as being good and the realm of God.
How does this not lead to harmful asceticism or degradation of the body?
Really appreciate this question, Jared. You’re not alone in wrestling with that tension—many do. The key is realizing that not all Gnosticism treated matter as evil in the same way. The strand I’m engaging with (like in the Gospel of Mary or Pistis Sophia) isn’t body-negative—it sees ignorance, not flesh, as the real bondage.
Matter isn’t evil—it’s just incomplete without awareness. The body becomes a vehicle for awakening when we stop identifying with it as the self and start honoring it as part of the unfolding path. That’s a huge difference from rejecting the body or punishing it.
Think of it like this: the problem isn’t that we have bodies. It’s that we forget we are more than them.
Thanks for the clarification! That view is quite compatible with my views and something I can get on board with as it resonates with IFS and other somatic informed psychologies.
To be regarded as spiritual equals gives freedom to women. The Cathar communities sound like nice places to live. Also, I bet their food was yum (vegetarian here)!
Aleksander, your article is the 2nd time this week that Sophia has come into my consciousness...and in combination with my own witness of the rise of the Divine Feminine, this prophecy burned in my consciousness as well! Where would you recommend I begin digging to learn of the Sophia energy?
Thank You Virgin Monk Boy🤎😊 The Way of Love🌹

I've been through more years of education than I care to mention, and this is the first I've heard of this.
That is a Wakeup Jott.
According to my beliefs, Perfection is already here, but inapparent. 🙏🏻
Indeed, Sharon. Perfection is already here, just really good at hide and seek. Most folks are too busy scrolling or repenting for imaginary crimes to notice. But every now and then, someone like you squints between the veils and whispers, “Gotcha.” 😉
I hope that the green brilliance of the laurels will soon be apparent in this world

Now , I'm intrigued. ⭐
So heretical, there was a Northern Crusade launched against them... :(
Those who have monopolies hate competition. X-P

True Christians, yes? How long did they hold off the onslaught? Two years, was it? Recommended reading?? Please and thank you.

Yeah, not very long, since they were non-violent...and no doubt their enemies knew that. :(

The Laurel is Green Again…and Green is Good!
This prophecy & reawakening of Mary Magdalene reminds me of the song “A Thousand Years,” by Christina Perri:
I have loved you for a thousand years,
I’ll love you for a thousand more
