Mary Magdalene is without a doubt the most famous ‘whore’ of the last 2000 years. A questionable honor? Not if you know that the word ‘whore’ comes from ‘hor’ or ‘har’ or ‘her’. Originally, a power root word that meant “womb” and “priestess” in ancestral times when the Sacred Feminine was recognized and honored.
Mary Magdalene was indeed a womb shaman, a medicine wombman, a priestess of the grail, a feminine christ. A woman with an awakened womb-heart, who stood fully in her sensual and spiritual power. The sacred union between Mary Magdalene and Jeshua is one of the best kept secrets in the world. If this tantric shamanic lovestory were the basis of our history, the world would look different.
During this 5-month Mary Magdalene Initiation, we will step into a veiled sanctuary of legends, ancient mystery school teachings and inner alchemy practices. You will awaken energetic portals in your womb, heal wounded masculine and feminine imprints, activate your memory of the FeMinine face of god and awaken the divine spark within yourself.
Two live retreats in the Cathar region in the South of France will allow you to breathe in the enigma and sacredness of the sites where legends say Mary Magdalene has been and taught. Apart from the live retreats, you will receive two online modules to further deepen your relationship with Mary Magdalene at home.

Villa Sainte Marie, where you will be lodged, is an exceptional and healing place that used to belong to the nuns of Cluny and afterwards to a pioneer in permaculture. We sleep in the main house behind cute blue shutters, or in wooden houses and glamping tents between the fruit trees on the land. We do the process work in the beautiful temple tent under the protection of a female taxus tree.
Hello, my name is Mieke Anthuenis (1972). I am a womb awakening teacher, shamanic womb healer and priestess, menstrual mentor and yoni steam facilitator. My life is dedicated to birthing the new earth and bringing back ancient feminine wisdom, healing arts and spirituality. Since 2005, I have been walking a shamanic path with strong influence from my time in Peru and Colombia and the teachers I met there. I am trained in core shamanism (Michael Harner) and womb shamanism (Fountain of Life, Sanctuary of Sofia and Sacred Woman Awakening). Since 2018, I work as a Moon Mother (level 3) and Vaginal Steam facilitator (Peristeam Hydrotherapy Institute). With a background in shiatsu and tuina, I seek to bring in the rich and old eastern view on womxn’s well-being. In my retreats and 1-on-1 sessions, I blend these modalities together, based on the needs of the client, to facilitate a deep and safe space for healing and transformation. I work with persons in all seasons of their life, with or without a womb, with or without a period. I am co-author of the best-selling book Return To the Motherworld and run retreats and pilgrimages in the legendary Cathar region in the South of France.
I am truly honored to connect with you.
