The Dark Goddess: Introduction to her Many Faces and Expressions


I am hosting a series of workshops on the Dark Deities. When you walk a shamanic path or faerie path, you will probably encounter … at some point … primordial deities. Most shamanic schools will not teach about these. Megan Rose talks about a collective reframe that needs to happen. I talk about this in terms of spiritual rewilding.

 
 

For many the idea of the Dark Goddess evokes foreboding and ferocity. Many understand her solely to be a harbinger of death, dismemberment and/or sacred rage. Yet the Dark Goddess has many faces and many names. She is also the Primordial one, the prima materia through whom the Universe is continually birthed, destroyed and re-birthed. She is the Creatrix, a womb Goddess who knits together new life and forms. She is a bringer of Transformation, holding the alchemical mystery of the cauldron. She is the Queen of Faery, goddess of the Otherworld. And she is the Erotic one, she who expresses the raw, potent desire of sexuality.

In this experiential class we will explore some of the faces and forms of the Dark Goddess, demystifying aspects that are often misunderstood or vilified. Guidance will be given for how we can best approach and undertake a relationship with the various transcultural expressions of this dynamic, powerful deity—whose worship, in some parts of the world, has been held in unbroken lineage for thousands of years. Special focus will be given to how working with the Dark Goddess empowers, emboldens, and enables us to step into agency and sovereignty in our lives and magic.
