Mary's Appearances
Mary's ascension is celebrated on the 15th of August. Since her ascension, Mother Mary has appeared throughout the world, producing many miracles of healing.
She set the stage for these appearances in the later years of her final embodiment, when she visited various areas of the world accompanied by John the Beloved and five others.
They went first to the retreat at Luxor, Egypt, then by boat to the Island of Crete across the Mediterranean Sea, through the Straits of Gibraltar, stopping at Fátima in Portugal, Lourdes in Southern France, and Glastonbury in the British Isles and Ireland.
In all these places, Mary and those serving with her drew focuses of the fifth ray, establishing the flame of science, healing and precipitation, preparing the way for those who would come after her to amplify the Christ consciousness.
These visits laid the foundation for the work of the apostle Paul in Greece and for Mary's own appearances at Fátima and Lourdes.
The Holy Grail, the cup used by Jesus at the Last Supper, was buried in a well at Glastonbury. Here the flame of the Christ was planted, later inspiring King Arthur to form the Knights of the Round Table and to engage in the quest for the Holy Grail.
Saint Patrick drew upon the focus of the threefold flame placed in Ireland and later taught the mystery of the Trinity, using the shamrock to illustrate the oneness of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
The emerald-green healing flame remains the symbol of Ireland, in remembrance of that journey long ago by those seven representatives whose devotion to the seven rays paved the way for the expansion of Christianity throughout Europe and, ultimately, the Western Hemisphere.
We can call to Mother Mary to help us carry the flame of healing and precipitation wherever we serve.
