BLACK MADONNA MONTSERRAT
A 9 Day Devotional Journey to meet the Queen of Venus
The Black Madonna Montserrat, Our Lady of Montserrat, is one of the 51 Black Madonnas in Spain and one of the most venerated in the World.
The fascinating shapes of the Montserrat Mountain have been a source of inspiration and awe for many. Some sources indicate that in the Roman times (197DC), there was already a Roman temple dedicated to Venus, in the Montserrat Mountain. The Virgin Mary was considered to be the Queen of Venus for this Temple, that would have been located where now stands the Chapel of Saint Michael, less than a 30 minute walk from the monastery, and not many feet above the location of the Holy Cave, where Our Lady of Montserrat was found.
As for the statue, some believe Yeshua himself asked Saint Luke to carve a sculpture with the portrait of the Virgin Mary, and that she lent him the carpentry tools she still kept at home. Years later, Saint Paul arrived to Barcelona on a boat, carrying that sculpture with him, which he gifted to the local Christian community. Because it arrived from Jerusalem, people called her the “Jerusalemite”.
In 718 Barcelona was attacked by the moors, and the Christians decided to evacuate the sculpture and hide it in a cave in the mountain of Montserrat. But since the moors controlled Barcelona for the next 80 years, the exact location of the statue was eventually forgotten.
One night, in 880, a group of young shepherds saw light coming out of a cave in the mountain. There was also music playing. When they approached it, they saw a sculpture of the Virgin Mary surrounded by angels playing instruments and signing.
They decided to run to the Bishop of Manresa. The Bishop went to the cave with them and decided to take the sculpture to town so she could be properly worshipped in the Cathedral. But as they started carrying her down another miracle happened: she started becoming heavier and heavier, so in the end nobody was able to lift her up anymore. That’s when the Bishop understood the message: She wanted to stay in the mountain.
Our Lady of Montserrat has a great message for humanity, and her consciousness is greatly felt in the collective in this present moment.
Join me and our sacred Desert Rose Community as we unveil in the sacredness of our 9 Day Devotional Journey the revelations that Our Lady of Montserrat has for each one of us.

How do we experience this Novena?
Every day during this 9 day devotional journey you will receive access to the teachings of the day as of 6,00 CET.
On the first day of the Novena you will receive your daily practice. This Novena is special as it includes DMT Ritual Movement as well, so we can connect more to our bodies and work with the energies of the Black Madonna, particularly Our Lady of Montserrat.
A few days before the Novena, I will upload the Biblical Myrraphore oil that bears the name Our lady of Montserrat and I will also guide you in the altar creation for this beautiful Devotional Journey.
You will also enjoy beautiful images from the Sacred Land of Montserrat.
I advise to join once the Devotional Journey is open for registration so you can start to prepare for this magical experience.

Creation
Creation is not an event but an endless symphony, a divine dance of energies weaving the tapestry of existence. In every breath, every thought, every beat of the heart, Creation is creating infinitely, echoing the limitless potential of the cosmos within us.
We are Infinity
Our souls are stardust, the echoes of cosmic songs sung across the ages. They are not confined by space and time, but stretch into infinity, carrying within them the wisdom of the ages and the promise of tomorrow. Every soul is an endless voyage, an infinite journey through the cosmos of consciousness.
Cosmic Intelligence
We are one with absolutely everything that exists. When we learn to cycle with and embody the Cosmic Intelligence, we understand that the universe can never conspire against us as we are one in co-creation with ALL.
