The Reconciliation of Our Two Marys and the Making of Violets

October 2020

The time has come, with some degree of urgency, to reconcile our two Marys within – Mary the Virgin and Mary Magdelene. Both are iconic. Both are sacred. Both are essential. The innocence and purity of blue forget-me-nots; the passion of the red, red rose. It’s about balance. It’s about polarities.

And further, the sacred Madonna and the wounded Madonna. A worthy subject for further literary exploration.
