Stunning images captured on Montsegur, France, holy Cathar stronghold.
The Cathars (from Greek katharos, "pure"), or "Bonne Hommes" (good men/people) were said to have been a Christian sect living in the South of France around the 12th-13th century. They were accused of heresy by the Catholic Church at the time and were genocided under the rule of various popes, especially Pope Innocent III.
We know that the Cathars were grail keeper of the lineage of the Rose and practitioners of the Way - the way of love and light as taught by Jesus Christ and Mary Magdalene, who had a large following in France.
The energy of this sacred place is electric, intense, beautiful, overwhelming, freeing.
