Magdalene Muses Card Self-Reading: Holy Grail

Today’s drawing of Mary Magdalene I’ve been struggling a lot with exhaustion these past weeks, and so I have not been posting daily as I would have wanted. But today I decided it’s been too long and too much exhaustion in the evenings, so I decided to drink some coffee at 3pm. I know that, for me, that might mean a sleepless night, especially since I haven’t been drinking much coffee beyond the morning for the last 8 years, unless it’s the weekend. It’s part of my sleep disci

Meditation With the Earth

Mary Magdalene: Meditation with the Earth, Tanya Torres, Oil on Canvas, 18”W x24”H, 2025. I have been working on this painting for several weeks. Each time adding color or detail until it seems finished. It never really seems finished! But it’s got to be all done at some point. It’s time to stop. We tend to look at our completed work as somewhat lacking. It always needs more. But years later, when we come back to it, and reencounter it, we inevitably realize that it was done

Unstoppable Person

Today’s drawing of Mary Magdalene Jorge Muñoz Parral says that God is a creative force that likes those who are coherent. According to him, the most important steps for manifestation are: Intention-Defining our goal or wish. For whom-When we do things to benefit others, we leave aside our ego. Massive action-Action is required. Detachment -One of Mary Magdalene’s most powerful lessons. Neutrality is the most potent state. This is how to become an unstoppable person.

The Rituals of Every Day Life

Today’s drawing of Mary Magdalene Ritual or routine? In the morning, I count on my routine to do everything I need to do in order to get to work earlier than “on time.” I want to be early so that I can perform my rituals and get into the role I must play. These little actions prepare me for the day ahead: I place my keys, my phone and my glasses on my desk. I look at my calendar. I think for a while. I make a list. I seek inspiration. Before that, in the subway, I read my be

Flying With Angels

Today’s drawing of Mary Magdalene These cherubs are bringing Mary Magdalene to heaven. The composition of the drawing is not great, but I like that she is relaxed on her way up. It seems to me Mary Magdalene was sleeping when the angels came for her. According to popular legend, angels regularly lifted Mary Magdalene from the cave where she lived for 30 years in Sainte-Baume in the south of France. She was transported to Heaven seven times a day to be fed with celestial harm

It’s All About the Dream

Today’s drawing of Mary Magdalene. She looks a lot like my previous drawing in the last post, but it’s a new one. Lately, a long weekend means for me a long time to work on my art. I’m using every minute to be in my studio and paint or work on projects. I have too many projects, but usually I just work on what I am inspired to do at the time. This time, it was the oil painting of Mary Magdalene that I started last week and that was already dry enough to continue painting. It’
