    The Bible's Bridal Mysticism Decoded with Dr. Garret Andrew

    What if the entire Bible — from the first Garden to the last page of Revelation— is one long love story, and we’ve been trained to read past it? To me, the Bible’s Bridal Mysticism is the key metaphor for the whole Christed spiritual path of embodied awakening to Divine Union. But it starts way before Jesus ever referred to himself as the Bridegroom. In this episode on Bridal Mysticism, Dr. Garret J. Andrew and I are exploring the Bible’s marriage imagery—from Genesis to Revelation—and what it might say about God’s longing for our return to divine union and the strange grace of a God who is always drawing creation Home. Dr. Garrett J. Andrew is a writer, teacher, former pastor and lifelong student of Scripture who is especially drawn to the places where biblical theology, poetry, and mysticism meet. He has a doctorate in preaching and 20+ years of experience with Scripture, theology, justice, kindness, and humility.

    Thrown to the Lions, Baptized by Herself: The Miraculous Story of St. Thecla with Justine Realized

    She was condemned to fire and to wild beasts — and instead of waiting to be saved, she baptized herself. In this episode, feminist writer and speaker Justine Realized joins me to tell the story of St. Thecla, the apocryphal companion of Paul who defied marriage, cut her hair, and claimed spiritual authority no institution ever gave her. We explore Thecla's story as a mirror for the modern woman's journey: feminism, self-trust, and remembering who we are beneath centuries of conditioning. We talk about the patriarchy as a wound shared by men and women alike, Yeshua as the true model of the noble masculine, and the embodied echoes of Thecla's defiance showing up in our own lives today — from shaving my head against beauty standards, to a self-baptism in the Mediterranean Sea on my 40th birthday. For the seeker who has moved beyond institutional religion but carries a direct, felt relationship with the divine feminine and with Christ, this episode is an invitation: where in your own life are you still waiting for permission you already have? A Mystic in Christ — exploring divine feminine Christ consciousness, Sophianic theology, and Yeshua as a role model for the noble masculine... for the modern mystic and spiritual seeker who is Christ-curious but church-cautious.

    Sacred Union, Embodied Intimacy, and Divine Feminine Devotion with Robin Stamp

    "The next Buddha will be the Sangha" — Thich Nhat Hanh's words, and the heart of this episode. Robin Stamp of Embodied Heart Ministry joins me to explore the Second Coming of Christ not as one man's return, but as awakening in many hearts at once — the path of divine embodiment that Yeshua and Magdalene walked together. We talk about sacred union as intimacy with the living presence of God in every moment — including tantric space — and about Mary Magdalene as the Christed feminine, modeling the merging of masculine and feminine within before it's ever embodied in holy relationship. Robin shares his own path from the Mormon church through yoga, tantra, and Taoism, back to a living relationship with Christ as brother and teacher of Love, discovered in Mexico under the gaze of Mother Mary herself. This episode is an invitation into embodied spirituality, divine feminine devotion, and sacred intimacy for anyone longing to meet God not beyond this life, but fully within it. A Mystic in Christ — exploring Gnostic Christianity, Sophianic theology, and the sacred feminine for the modern mystic. | Robin Stamp | Website: www.universeembodied.com Substack: substack.com/@robinstamp Instagram: www.instagram.com/embodied_heart_ministry | Nadia Neriya | Book a 1:1 sacred mentoring call with Neriya: https://nadianeriya.substack.com/p/mentoring Receive A Mystic in Christ love letters: https://nadianeriya.substack.com/p/free-welcome-gift Explore our new book, Sacred Fire: https://nadianeriya.substack.com/p/sacred-fire-a-mystics-love-story Join Lovers of God, our members community: https://nadianeriya.substack.com/p/membership Taste Divine Union, with our erotic embodiment ritual: https://nadianeriya.substack.com/p/divine-union | Subscribe to A Mystic in Christ podcast | Substack | nadianeriya.substack.com/subscribe iTunes | podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a-mystic-in-christ/id1846793168 Spotify |⁠⁠ open.spotify.com/show/31RnSNhQYRbuXiJ7ofo1h3?si=d715158d823542db YouTube | www.youtube.com/@NadiaNeriya Instagram | www.instagram.com/nadianeriya Get full access to A Mystic in Christ at nadianeriya.substack.com/subscribe

    "At the End of 700 Years" Means Now: This Cathar Prophecy Marks the Return of the Christed Feminine

    The last Cathar leader died in 1321 with a prophecy on his lips: "At the end of 700 years, the laurel will turn green again." Seven hundred years is 2021 and onward - now. In this episode, Neriya unpacks the 5 hidden, mystical meaning-layers of this prophecy. From the Cathar genocide and Gnostic wisdom to the cultural return of Sophia and the divine feminine, with a practice for grounding this sacred return in your sacred body. Drawing on Gnostic history, Kabbalistic numerology, Greek mythology, goddess scholarship, and her own embodied experience, we trace the arc from the Cathar genocide of the 13th century to the unmistakable cultural and spiritual resurgence of Christ and the divine feminine we are witnessing today. Some call it the Great Awakening, the Age of the Heart, Sophia’s Return, or the Second Coming of Christ. This episode will help you make more sense of what’s happening all around us now. You discover: -Who the Cathars were — and why their reverence for the sacred feminine made them a target for annihilation -Why 224 men, women, and children walked willingly into the flames at Montségur in 1244 -The five mystical layers hidden inside Bélibaste's dying prophecy -What ancient “mother-hunger" is, and why women and men across traditions are returning to the Goddess -How the nervous system collapse many women experienced in and around 2021 may be the most personal fulfilment of the prophecy -A simple embodiment practice to help you ground the return of Sophia and the Beloved’s Presence in your own body This episode is for spiritually curious men and women drawn to the Magdalene, Sophia, the Cathars, the sacred feminine in mystical Christianity, Gnostic wisdom, divine union, and Christ consciousness.

    Channeling Jesus and Mary with Chelsea Bratches

    Chelsea Bratches is a NYC-based style enthusiast who loves fashion and interior design—and who also channels Jesus! After a nervous system collapse and prolonged depression, she tried a healing modality called somatic channeling. This is the story of how Chelsea healed her nervous system and started channeling Jesus, Mother Mary and Mary Magdalene. She also opens her channel as we invite Yeshua to speak through her. Here are a couple of things we talked about: -the Second Coming of Christ and the return of the Divine feminine -Chelsea’s Guides from the Galactic Federation — the UN of the Cosmos? -why so many people have visions of Mother Mary, Mary Magdalene or Jesus now -how to love fashion and still be ultra-spiritual (think Sex and the City goes to Church) -how to get dressed every morning in alignment with your true soul’s essence -how to use the mind to attune to the light of love in your physical body -how to honour the Magdalene lineage and carry forth the remembrance of the Goddess -guidance on the Great Awakening (Second Coming of Christ) and past life remembrance -how to be in service to Love in these times of collective homecoming -and so much more *The direct Jesus transmission begins at 30 mins into the conversation!

    Open-Eye Visions of Christ with Pontus Sandberg

    The night after Pontus and I first met, he experienced a full-on Unio Mystica, a mystical union or "spiritual marriage" where the boundary between the soul and God dissolves. Ever since then, whenever we connected, the Presence of Christ was super strong. Pontus often sees Yeshua standing before him in full glory, so the room becomes translucent and drenched in golden light. Sometimes he receives teachings. Other times, Christ blesses the moment and meeting. Here are a few things we talked about: * Pontus’ embodied experiences of repeated mystical unions with Christ * how it actually feels and looks like to receive Jesus in different ways * meeting Mother Mary in the garden during a deep NLP hypnosis retreat * Christ’s healing miracles and how they can change timelines and destiny * Yeshua baptising Pontus and Mary Magdalene returning a piece of his soul * the secret connection between the Goddess Isis and the Black Madonna * how to open up your own senses and divine connection to God & Christ * and so much more… Pontus is a clinical Osteopath, mystic in Christ, ceremonial magician, NLP practitioner and hypnotherapist. He is initiated into several esoteric orders, including The Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, Martinism, Rosicrucianism, and Freemasonry. His main path has always been Rosicrucianism and Alchemy though, which includes studies in Hermeticism, Kabbala, Enochian magic. Subscribe to his new Substack HERE.

    Blessed Virgin or Holy Whore? Healing the Divide in the Divine Feminine

    The Madonna-Whore Complex Is Ancient: How to Heal the Divide in the Divine Feminine by Embodying Your Exiled Parts For two thousand years, women in the Western world have been handed a binary: be the Madonna, or be the whore. But this split didn't begin with Freud. It was deliberately constructed through centuries of Church history, from the sacred sexual priestesses condemned by the Pharisees, to Pope Gregory I's erasure of Mary Magdalene, to Augustine's doctrine of original sin embedded in the female body. In this episode, we trace the full history of the Madonna-Whore complex, name the full spectrum of divine feminine archetypes — from the innocent virgin to the sacred slut — and explore how to bring the exiled parts home through embodiment. (Including a personal story from a tantric women's retreat and a healing embodiment practice you can try with your girlfriends this weekend.) Featuring verses from Hal Taussig's A New New Testament translation of The Thunder: Perfect Mind, the ancient Gnostic text written in the voice of Sophia, divine wisdom. This episode is for spiritual women and men who love Christ, the divine feminine, and who are ready to stop choosing.
