AVE MARIA! Timeshare - The Chateau
Recorded history of the Chateau dates the original building back to 1301 and indicates that additions were made in each subsequent century through the latter part of the 19th century.
Also on the grounds are the lovely gardens and the gites. The three gites that rent out are 400 year old structures with raw beams, fireplaces, and very old, charming tile floors.
Other outbuildings include the stable, the chapel, two very large garages, and the old wine cellar with the press still intact.
The Charente Maritime has wonderful seafood restaurants, ancient Roman ruins, and sunny, sandy

Below Montsegur lies a peaceful meadow, its name, “Field of the Burned," the only indication of the grim event that took place there a little over 700 years ago.
In March, 1244, 205 Cathars were burned alive on the site, rather than renounce their creed.
Who were these heirs to Montsegur?
Their name Cathari means "pure" in Greek. Branded heretics by the Roman Catholic Church, little remains to speak of them today, other than Inquisition records. Their writings were destroyed along with their earthly bodies. Yet, in their time their influence was enormous, networking with centers in

The Grail legends, the Courts of Love, the troubadours, all blossomed under the benign guidance of the gnostic Cathari. The spirit of the land, then known as Oc, was that of tolerance and personal liberty, most rare in any age.
Cathars – Religious Belief
The central Cathar rite was consolamentum, or baptism with spirit and fire.
The spirit received was the Paraclete derived from God and sent by Christ, who said, The Father is greater than I. The consolamentum removes original sin, undoes the sad effects of the primal fall, and clothes upon us our habitation which is from heaven, restores to us the lost tunic of immortality.
A Consoled is an angel walking in the flesh, which the thin screen of death alone separates from Christ and the beatific vision. The rite was appointed by Christ, and has been handed down from generation to generation by the boni hominess (bonne hommes) (good men and women).
Imprisoned in the garment of flesh, burdened with its sin, souls long to be clothed upon with the habitations they left in heaven. So long as they are at home in the body, they are absent from the Lord. They would fain be at home with the Lord, and absent from the body, for which there is no place in heaven since flesh and blood cannot inherit the
How shall man escape from his prison-house of flesh, and undo the effects of his fall?
For mere death brings no liberation unless a man is become a new creation, a new Adam, as Christ was; unless he has received the gift of the spirit and become a vehicle of the Paraclete, i.e., comforter, an appellation of the Holy Ghost .
If a man dies unreconciled to God through Christ, he must pass through another cycle of imprisonment in flesh; perhaps in a human, but with equal likelihood in an animal’s body. For when after death the powers of the air throng around and persecute, the soul flees into the first lodging of clay that it finds.
Christ was a life-giving spirit, and the boni hominess, the good men, as the Cathars called themselves, are his ambassadors. They alone have kept the spiritual baptism with fire which Christ instituted:
“In Matthew 3:11, John the Baptist said: ‘I indeed baptize you in water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you in the Holy Spirit and in fire . . .’
The Holy Grail
It has been suggested in some modern fiction and non-fiction books that the Cathars could have been the protectors of the Holy Grail of Christian mythology.
Aromatherapy
Aromatherapy is the use of essential oils from botanical material (flowers, herbs and other aromatic plants) to achieve relaxation, relief from stress and other disorders.
The term "aromatherapy" was coined in the 1920's by a French perfumer named Rene Gattfosse. Aromatherapy is an ancient healing art that uses essential oils extracted from herbs and flowers.
Each oil, or combination of oils, addresses a specific emotional disorder or organ dysfunction. Therapeutic oils can be inhaled or applied to the skin. The word therapy in and of itself implies the need for treatment of an illness or disability.
In aromatherapy the oils are applied to the body in different ways - massage, inhalation, bath, creams, compresses, etc., and as a rule are not taken internally.
Medical Aromatherapy
In France doctors do prescribe the use of essential oils in medical aromatherapy, that are taken internally, but this should never be done by the lay person, as these oils are very powerful compounds and can be dangerous to your health if ingested.
We shall be seeking out the knowledge of French aromatherapy doctors who, though use of AVE media, will teach us “how to” employ the use of an aromatogram, (equipment used to take a sample from an infected area of a patient), and cultivate the sample in the laboratory.
We shall then learn “how to” test the various essential oils to find the most effective oil to treat the infection of that specific patient.
These techniques are the first step in the discovery of the use of essential oils by Metaphysicians’ diagnose and treatment of clients at our Egyptian Health Spas.
Some people think that the system of aromatherapy is a new one, but has been employed since the ancient Egyptians, Babylonians, Greeks and Romans.
In our laboratories, we shall work together with scientists and French doctors to create a stable delivery system for essential oils via the skin.
It is our belief that through the combined use of technologies and specialized equipment, we shall be able to attach molecules to substrates that with the use of albumin, can cross the dermis and non-invasively be passed directly into the blood stream allowing the maximum and fastest benefit to patients and clients of our global chain of Egyptian Health Spas.
Join us on this Sacred Tour as we VISION the healed fires of our senses, hearts & minds using medicinal and calming aromatherapy combined with the courage and strength of Joan d’Arc, and undying FAITH of the Cathars.
