PILGRIMAGE OF THE ROSE

Walk in the Footstep of Magdalene

The Rose, a symbol of the divine feminine, represents a lost wisdom that is now resurfacing. Following Mary Magdalene, we become vessels of this essential remembrance, restoring balance through the sacred medicine of beauty and devotion.

This is not just a journey; it's a surrender.

This is not a path of seeking but of incarnation.

This is not a path of manifesting but of remembrance.

It is a symbolic death and resurrection.

For this we need a guiding Light: Mary Magdalene

Known as the "Apostle of Apostles," and the witness to Jesus' resurrection, Mary Magdalene's boundless love, renewing fire, and anointing hands are a balm for so many today. A beacon of trust in the return of the consciousness of love – The very heart of Reality.

PILGRIMAGE IS A RITE OF PASSAGE

Times are changing. As the world undergoes a great transition, it is essential for those who hear the call to respond and step on the path. Embracing the energy of love and devotion is crucial for the shift in consciousness we're experiencing.

Magdalene is the announcer of the resurrection. As she comes into your life, she arrives not as a mere teacher, but as a herald. Her presence announces a resurrection within you, a transformation so profound it feels like death itself. Yet, this is not a grim reaper, but a sweet surrender. It's the death of the fear of union, the thread that stands between you and the boundless love you truly are.

Come and gather in a sacred container. Over 11 module we unite in trust, offering our hearts in devotion. Through 9 Symbols, 9 rituals, 9 rites of sublime engagement, imaginal audio journeys, all in preparation to dissolve the fear of union and be embodied pilgrims. Petals of the Rose.

As the rose blossoms and the flame of Magdalene's devotion awakens, every step becomes perfumed with a love so needed in our lives and in the world today.

Overview of Sessions

It is said there is no higher vibration in the kaleidoscopic plant kingdom of this world than the Rose.

May we transform its thorns into protective guardians, its scent into the perfume of our days, and its beauty into our expression. May the heart of Magdalene be our living presence and guide on this path of the Rose.

To truly be changed and touched by the Rose, in a way that its fragrance stays with us forever, we must immerse ourselves in it. This pilgrimage of the Rose is precisely that: an immersion.

Through Magdalene's life, legends, devotion, and her nine symbols, we invite you to bathe and imbibe in the vibrant energy of Magdalene and the Rose.

We immerse ourselves through learning and getting intimate with each symbol via a pre-recorded call, sent out the first week each symbol is introduced.

We immerse ourselves through plunging together in community practice. On live calls we will collectively embark on an imaginal, embodied, audio journey connected to each symbol. Then, individually, and together, we will work with the experience the imaginal awoke in us, illuminating the seeds within the collective dream of that symbol, ready to be born.

We immerse ourselves through inspiration. We will be taught and guided on live calls by invited teachers from a prismatic array of backgrounds. From devotional singers to contemplative priests, mythic storytellers to on-the-ground historians, and more—each carrying a spark of this love and flame we may be warmed by.

All of this is supported by carefully crafted practices, easily integrated into your daily routine, which you can carry throughout the three weeks we spend with each symbol. Practices we call the Rites Of Sublime Engagement – The R.O.S.Es.

Together, and individually, we walk this path of the Rose, which grew out of the fabled Rose Lines in southern France. The very land Magdalene planted seeds for us, and where, she still walks as a living presence through us, as we individually dive into the heart of the Rose and become petals of its radiant unfolding, through this journey of 9 symbols. A journey of love, preparing us to be the living presence of the Rose in a world that needs the essence of Magdalene – True audacious devotion, one-pointed love, sublime beauty, scintillating vibration, unwavering authenticity, and wonder — more than ever.

We’ll embark as pilgrims, barefoot on sacred ground, leaving behind the familiar to embrace the unknown call. The waiting light. The rebirth.

Designed as a poetic cartography mapping the journey towards the Anthropos — fully human, fully divine — each week a symbol will serve as an invitation to delve deeper within. We'll step into the liminal realm, where trust guides us, transformation unfolds and a red flame of devotion illumines the dark. Humbly discerning, as a great full being YES, the beckoning of Stella Maris along a path of most precious remembrance.

Over Eleven Modules, this course will cover the following topics:

INTRODUCTION: Pilgrimage of the Rose- An Inner Transformation

Introducing the essence of pilgrimage and its role as a rite of passage for inner transformation and embodiment. Exploring Mary Magdalene's journey as footsteps to, not only follow, but to walk with Her. Unveiling the poetic cartography of the upcoming weeks.

MODULE 1: Stella Maris - The Calling

The beginning and the end. Here we feel into, and answer, the call of the star, in the deep tissues of our being. Stepping on a long-awaited and deeply sensed journey. A journey that reverberates with such familiarity, with such "bone memory", it feels like nothing less than a homecoming. A starry remembrance that beckons us beyond known lands to return to our heart in the Rose.

MODULE 2: The Forest - Guardianship & Offering

Following the star, we step into the forest. The forest of wild forces, great helpers, of decay, abundance, and of new life. Giving attention is one of the greatest acts of love. In the forest we learn to attune, hear, and offer back. We sharpen our senses and enter a reciprocal dance with nature. Through this practice the interconnectedness of all life unfolds and our shared responsibility awakens, fostering a deep sense of guardianship and reverence for the world around us.

MODULE 3: The Cave - The Heart Womb

In the heart of the forest, we are brought into the realm of the cave. Here we plunge into heart-woven introspection through the ancient practice of rosary prayer. Approaching this practice as tapas and self-discipline, we kindle the transformative fire of devotion that nurtures the seed of divine love within, where all is prepared, and made ready, to hum filled with the nectar of the sacred.

MODULE 4: The Alabaster Jar - Annointing

Magdalene is known as the one who has anointed Christ (literally — the anointed one). We anoint sacred objects. We anoint moments in great recognition. We anoint to prepare and seal the vessel for the work to come. We anoint to prepare for death and rebirth. We anoint to know a love that never dies. A drop poured into the vessel of the universe.

MODULE 5: The Skull - Death & Re-birth

What is not born of wisdom and devotional love cannot be carried over into the new life we have answered the call of, and been prepared for. Surrender the fear of union. Offer yourself to be a vessel of the magic and wonder that is SHE.

MODULE 6: The Book - Wisdom Beyond Death

Seeing through the heart with eyes of fire, an invocation to the Rose is born. A flow of words and power expressing our deepest longing realized. This is the wisdom of our star unified in the world. In recognition of a great gift provided.

MODULE 7: The Chalice - Vessel of Love

Love unifies. In the chalice of love that is your body and mind, the opposites of — human and divine, mundane and sacred, imminence and transcendence, masculine and feminine — all come together. The white and the red united in the Pink Rose.

MODULE 8: The Tower - Vigil

To hold vigil. Tending the fire. Cultivating unwavering devotion and dedication in honour of all the gifts received, the visions had, the realizations made, and the blessings held along the way of the Rose. This is a vigil of loving discipline. A guarding of the Rose. In the powers of Will, and being. In true love honoured.

MODULE 9: The Rose- The Gift- The Return to the World

All the ways we walk, all the ways we offer and share, all the ways we receive in life, all we touch and all we are touched by, become a showering of rose petals on sacred pathways. An awakening of forgotten song lines. The star is finally embodied here and now as the living rose. The beauty way realized.

CLOSING: Walking the Rose- Pilgrimage an Outter Expression

As we conclude our journey together we will offer a taste of pilgrimage in Southern France following in the legendary footsteps of Mary Magdalene along the hidden trail of the rose in the Cathar land and Provencial Regions. And introduce the upcoming in-person pilgrimage in Spring 2027.

Prepare to surrender to the Rose and the flame of beauty within.

MEET AUDE & MARCUS

Aude

A Darshan of the Rose

Through many paths, traditions, and seeming lifetimes of exploring feminine embodiment, Aude found her way in an ancient, living, tantric lineage of Goddess worship, where in an instant of profound recognition, it was revealed that the Rose had always been the way.

Born Christian, the divine mother had called her outside of her own cultural context to be touched by the holy, before returning back to her original faith in the mysticism of Magdalene. Led to the cave of Sainte Baume on the feast of Mary Magdalene, Aude eventually realized she was unknowingly following in the footsteps of the legends of Magdalene’s walk through the rose ways of southern France.

Beyond the mind, beyond her own understanding, beyond comprehension, in a depth of mystery still unveiling itself today, she began to follow a longing and relentless call to live and walk the trails where Mary Magdalene is said to have come after her exile from the holy land.

Years later, on a winter solstice in Avebury — a Celtic site dedicated to the Goddess — a call was heard, a stone whispered, “It is time to bring people on the land to simply be Love.” Ever since Aude has guided intimate pilgrimages of remembrance, where each who walk offer recognition, as petals of beauty, reawakening the long forgotten lines of the Rose in southern France.

Marcus

A Love Story

After years of following a flame inside, beyond his own understanding, expectation, plans, or even will — doing it ‘the old school way’ — Marcus found himself living in Catholic Portugal (despite not being formally Christian at all) preparing.

Hearing about the skull of Magdalene housed somewhere in France, and not being able to shake the thought, despite knowing nothing about it and very little about her, Marcus booked a 28 hour bus ride across two country borders on an expired visa. Setting out, as if on a boat without oars, knowing nothing of what he was stepping into or the immense impact it would have on his life.

Years and many pilgrimages, sacrifices, myths, rituals and offerings later, having spent more than a yoga teacher’s training’s worth of hours emptying in front of Magdalene, he knew something was about to change; and was called out of the cave to share some of what she gave.

May you remember it’s a love story after all

Following The Rose

After unexpectedly meeting, in silence, for the 2^nd time, walking in perfectly matched steps and rhythms of love and worship together following the relics of Mary Magdalene up the mountain of Sainte Baume, Aude and Marcus were clearly about to continue the procession hand in hand.

Intertwining their lives, and love, in humming devotion, through an ongoing pilgrimage of surrender and service to Magdalene, they aspire to practice daily offerings and thankfulness; bowing in remembrance that the more they empty, the less of them, the more the wonder of Her and the gifts of the Rose unfurl.

Testimonials

"Along the Way of the Rose course and pilgrimage, I felt richly the embrace of the living presence of Magdalene. I experienced new ways of honoring Her in devotion that I continue to practice, and became more able see my life through eyes of grace. The journey was not without difficulty, but beside it I felt the constant pleasure of growth within her unfolding Mystery. Aude and Marcus are the rarest of guides— radiantly sincere in their devotion, exquisite in their curation, and generous in every way. Their reverence set the tone for every step, every silence, every approach to sacred sites. The pilgrimage experience they created was both spacious and potent. Aude guided us expertly in daily practices that were embodied, repeatable, and opened the infinite channel for direct experience. As pilgrims, we came from diverse traditions (atheists, christians, and goddess worshippers etc.) yet we oriented harmoniously toward union and holy essence. Even the challenges of the journey felt divinely orchestrated, offering each of us the precise initiation we required; I released a deep grief I hadn’t realized I was carrying. Everything unfolded as it needed to in this precious alchemy of land, trust and ancient mystery. What I received went beyond anything I could have imagined—a direct transmission from Magdalen through the land itself, that continues to blossom in my life. I am grateful beyond words to have walked the Way of the Rose.”

Nyima Archer

"I had the great honor of being accompanied by Aude on the pilgrimage of Mary Magdalene. It is first of all the encounter with Mary Magdalene, who is taking an increasingly important place in my life, as a figure of "woman of body and soul". I was deeply moved to walk in her footsteps, to feel her presence under the trees of Sainte-Baume, in the cave, in a luminous vibration. Protected by Mary Magdalene, I was able to lay down burdens I had carried for so long and find a light and joyful peace. Aude's accompaniment on this path is always an immense happiness, on a path of devotion and very simple bonds.

I was overwhelmed by the visit to the Galamus Gorge and I will never forget the ceremony in the hermitage, the songs and the devotion that I was given to experience at that moment. I cannot finish this testimony without trying to put words to my total emotion in the crypt of the Holy Marys of the Sea and my almost paralyzing encounter with Sainte Sara. I still don't really understand what happened to me. A upheaval of my being.

During the pilgrimage, thanks to Aude's great knowledge, I was able to visit other holy and significant places and celebrate the presence of Mary Magdalene through numerous rituals and ceremonies. Pilgrimage, devotion, teachings, practices, rituals, connection to the divine are now for me the only possible way to live a sweeter, more poetic, slower and more savory life."

Aline- Sion, Switzerland

"For years, I prayed to find the aligned teacher(s) to move into deeper study of the Rose Lineage with. After hearing Aude share about Pilgrimage of the Rose, I knew that this was the right place for me to deepen my connection to these mysteries. When Aude and Marcus speak, they share a powerful transmission—one that stretches across time and space and is simultaneously wholly rooted in the land. These transmissions consistently, without compromise, call us back to a one-pointed focus on Love. If you have the opportunity to study with these two, I simply cannot recommend it enough. They both embody a level of devotion that, if you can entrain to, will transform your life."

Maria Amiouni – Dubai

"Our Mary Magdalene pilgrimage was a captivating adventure, made truly special by our guide, Aude. More than a guide, Aude is a priestess dedicated to helping couples reconnect with the essence of divine union. Her beautiful work helped us connect deeply with both the divine feminine and masculine, fostering greater intimacy. Aude's presence enriched our journey, making it a blend of beauty, mystery, and spiritual connection. This adventure left us forever touched by her wisdom and compassion. We feel blessed to have experienced such a transformative retreat."
