CAROLYN SHIELD - Mary Magdalene, the Madonna and Uriel - Carolyn Shield has lived in Saint Louis Missouri most of her young life. She was raised by a devout Catholic family. She attended Catholic schools for grade, high school and college. She graduated from Maryville School of Nursing. Oncology Nursing was just beginning and she can say that she helped over a thousand souls make the journey home. It was the time when dying in the hospital was the most common thing. Now she welcomes new souls to this new life. Pediatrics and nursery is her new home and she has welcomed over a thousand little souls over 18 years. The big awakening happened over Dan Brown's book Da Vinci Code. It was Leonardo Da Vinci's two paintings the Last Supper and the Madonna on the Rocks that made her take a second look at what she had been told in school. In Da Vinci's Last Supper she has come to realize that there is a woman (Mary Magdalene) sitting next to Jesus at the table. In the Madonna on the Rocks it was Uriel the Archangel that she discovered was booted out of his fourth Archangel position by Pope Zachary at a council in Rome in 745c.e. He downgraded Uriel with seven other Archangels to Saints. In the Gospel of Barnabas, Uriel is one of the four Archangels who protect Jesus and his family throughout his life. Uriel is also the famous angel that carries the flaming sword and guards the Gate of Eden. Carolyn started reading and researching. Her quest turned to looking at the holy places she often prayed in with different eyes. I posted a You Tube video called Looking for Mary Magdalene showing my quest. Who would guess I got a email from the editor of Rhedesium asking where I got a picture of Mary Magdalene with her hands folded like the Mary Magdalene on the altar at Rennes Chateau. I didn't know at the time that Ben Hammott had discovered a corpse with a Crusader flag on it in a cave near Rennes Chateau. It wasn't till I saw the movie Bloodlines that I saw that the embalmed body also had the same folding hands. I later found out that Jean Cocteau when he was buried also had his hands folded the same way. Some people have said he was Grandmaster of the Priory of Sion. Since then I have found another painting with a pregnant Mary with the same folded hands at the Miraculous Medal Shrine at Perryville Missouri. Just by chance my father's life was saved by the Miraculous medal. A policemen shot in the hip in a gunfight of which the bullet was deflected by the medal on his key chain. This not the only incident that is special in my family with Our Lady. My grandfather was cured by Lourdes Water. - www.bepureofheart.com
