Solstice @ EarthGaia June 2026 C.E.

As the Southern Hemisphere enters the fullness of the dark part of the annual cycle, towards Winter Solstice when it will turn/ return to the growing light, the Northern Hemisphere enters the fullness of the light part of the annual cycle, towards Summer Solstice when it will turn/return to the growing dark.  The Solstices are […]

(Audio) Mother/Creatrix Quality/Aspect of Great Goddess

This is an edited recording of a radio program, from a twelve part series named Re-membering the Great Mother, authored and put to air by Glenys Livingstone in 1994, for 2BLU-FM 89.1, community radio in the Blue Mountains, Australia. I created this radio series after a personal shattering and underworld journey, as I re-created myself […]

Packing it Up: Letting Go of a Phase of Creativity

The passing of this personal phase of creativity has not been timed with my biological clock, as in the ending of menstruation: that happened almost twenty years ago. This phase of creativity that is passing has occupied my life for about thirty years or more, and I understand it as a ‘Mother’ phase, the full […]

PaGaian Poiesis: a Review by Therese Doherty

“I first read PaGaian Cosmology in 2016, and though it made quite an impression at the time, there were definitely aspects of it that I didn’t fully understand, or which were still a little bit too challenging to fully embrace. Returning to it now with greater understanding, however, I am grateful for the perspective it offers, for […]

Creating a Womb of Gaia altar

A Womb of Gaia altar may represent a Place, and a practice, where you may enter into Her Creativity, place yourself in Her Womb consciously – where there is never-ending Creativity. It is a Place, in which we are held, and may be held consciously: with your conscious participation in this Creativity. The link above […]

PaGaian Cosmology Course: a Poiesis of the Creative Cosmos

For those living in the Northern Hemisphere, my course in PaGaian Cosmology is starting with the current advent of Autumn there: with the Introduction which is substantial, and then with Samhain material sent by mid-late October. This course is rich in material, and suitable for the novice as well as the experienced who may wish to […]

The Whole Universe in Every Mouthful: Daily Communion

I first became conscious of this truth by way of cosmologist/physicist Brian Thomas Swimme. He noted this connectivity particularly in video two of his old and germinal series Canticle to the Cosmos; and in part of that teaching, he held up an apple as an example of the whole universe involved in one bite of it […]

You are invited to join in this 7 day free event that honours and celebrates older women. Its title is Crones, Hags and Elder Wise Women of Power, and I am honoured to be included amongst the more than 30 older women speaking; and very happy to be recognised as a Hag 😅, who is in […]

Packing it up After Imbolc – Going with Her Creative Flow

As I reluctantly pack up the Imbolc ceremonial decorations this year (early August in the Southern Hemisphere where I am), I am conscious that this was perhaps the last Imbolc that I will celebrate here in this place, and even in the way as I have done for decades. As my partner and I age, […]
