Imbolc/Lammas @ EarthGaia August 2024 C.E.
With the passing of the Solstice Season, our Planet enters into the waxing light Seasons in the Southern Hemisphere and the waxing dark Seasons in the Northern Hemisphere.

A Journey with Inanna by Glenys Livingstone Ph.D
Forty years ago (1978) I signed a letter to an editor “in the name of She who is rising;” he had rejected an article I had submitted on women and religion. Indeed, many now witness that She has risen since then, prolifically, and ever more so, collectively; and also for me personally. I reflect on […]
Packing it Up after Winter Solstice – Entering Larger New Being

To facilitate this process we play a game I played as a child, of “In […]
Appropriating Her Maternal Creativity
As poet Robin Morgan asks in The Network of the Imaginary Mother: What have they dared, Sucking at man’s wounds for wine, Celebrating his flesh as food? … Who have they dared to hang on that spine instead and then deny, across millennia? … She goes on and proclaims: … this cup, this chalice, this primordial […]
