There are stories that have been told again and again. And then there are the ones that were almost erased.

Mary Magdalene belongs to the second.

Her gospel, the Gospel of Mary, is one of the few early Christian texts written in a woman’s name. Ancient, sacred, and widely studied today, yet left out of the Bible as we know it.

And when you read it, you begin to understand why.

In the centuries that followed, as Christianity became more structured, teachings began to move toward order, doctrine, and control. Mary’s perspective did not easily fit into that:

✨A woman speaking with spiritual authority.
🌹A path rooted in inner knowing rather than external rule.

💚A view of the human experience that was not centered on guilt.

It is believed that texts like hers were excluded, and in some cases intentionally destroyed. Leaders in the 4th century had called for the complete destruction of Mary’s words. They feared the power of her gospel to inspire individuals to meet their true, loving nature, which was deeply at odds with the growing sentiments of governance and religious rulership. 

And yet, fragments survived. A small group of monks refused to destroy Mary’s words and chose to act. They buried her writings deep in the Egyptian desert, saving several manuscripts of the only gospel written in a woman's name: The Gospel of Mary Magdalene.

Mary Magdalene’s journey, from devoted follower to erased figure to rediscovered voice,

mirrors something many of us know in our own lives. The experience of being close to truth, of losing it, and of finding it again in a deeper, more embodied way.

If her story speaks to you, our ‘Through It All’ collection was created in that spirit. As a companion. As a reminder of what remains, even when so much else falls away.

Each piece has been blessed in a Balinese ceremony.

Made to walk with you, through it all.
