Mary Magdalene: Archetype of the Divine Feminine
Who is this woman—a penitent prostitute or a beloved disciple? How does she form our image of the divine feminine? In the Gnostic Gospel, Dialogue of the Savior, it is written, “she spoke as a woman who knew the All”. Through comparative world mythologies we will explore what relevance her archetypal image, both sexual and spiritual, has to do with modern men and women as it pertains to a sense of self and in relationship with others.

The Sacred Initiation of Women
From the ancient Villa of Mystery, Pompeii, murals depict the ritual of a Roman woman entering into sacred rites of Dionysus. This workshop will include the mythology of the god Dionysus followed by a discussion of the symbolic images as seen in the friezes. At each stage of this ritual initiation the relevance of these ancient mysteries is shown to depict the same development as in the process of individuation described by Jungian psychology.
