The concept of the Triple Goddess associated with the Seventh Spheres found in the Virgin Mother can be seen in our Lady of Sorrows

Mary is equivalent to the Virgin daughter of the Father, in other words, the Higher Sophia. The other aspect is the Lower Sophia or redeemed prostitute/sister as embodied by Mary Magdalen, the beloved disciple.

Mary has been worshiped as Our Lady of Sorrows since or before the 3rd Century although the Catholic Church did not formalize this as one of Mary's titles until the 14th Century. The Church has formally recognized The Seven Sorrows of Mary as: 1. The prophecy of Simeon that her heart would be pierced with swords (Luke 2:34-35); 2. The Flight into Egypt when her infant son's life was threatened by Herod (Matthew 2:13-21); 3. The Loss of Jesus for Three Days when he was a twelve-year-old boy (Luke 2:41-50); 4. Jesus' Ascent to Calvary bearing the cross (John 19:17); 5. The Crucifixion and Death of Jesus (John 19:18-30); 6. Jesus Taken Down from the Cross (John 19:39-40); 7. Jesus Laid in the Tomb (John 19:39-42). However, people (especially women) around the world throughout the ages have been happy to share their sorrow with Mary and to identify their sorrow with hers.

Seven in reference to Mary Magdalene means that rather then being just a lost nobody once riddled with demons; She is at once both the historically fallen and now redeemed Church (Bride), without spot or blemish and in fact complete in perfection and full of grace, she is Apostle to the Apostles and the true Bride! She is Queen!

IF IT SEEMS OUTRAGOUS TO CLAIM THAT JESUS OUR KING SHOULD MARRY A USED WOMAN, REMEMBER THAT THE POINT IS NOT WHAT MAN DESIRES BUT WHAT GOD HAS SUFFERED IN RELATION TO HIS BRIDE THE CHURCH. Then there is the possibility that Mary was a harlot of sorts in that she was a Samaritan who had been married to other men and was currently living with a man outside of marriage when she meet Jesus. This could easily be associated with seven devils to the Hebrews. If Jesus married such a woman it would be enough to send Judas to the high priest and good reason not to include it in the gospel stories. But it is exactly what God was saying throughout the Old Testament about his relationship with City Zion. This is illustrated in the book of Amos where God commands Hosea to take a harlot for his wife.
