Working with Lilith – Goddess of Transformation

Lilith has long been maligned as a dangerous demon or dark goddess who should not be approached, but who we need protection from. Most of the warnings and scary stories about her have their origin in patriarchal religious texts, which is important to note. The reason this is important is because it alerts us that there is an agenda behind the warning around her – she was, and still is, a source of great personal power – especially regarding female sexuality. Personal power and female sexuality have traditionally been very threatening to organized patriarchal religions and thus they have sought to squash this power and keep people away from it. Not because it is dangerous for individuals, but because it is dangerous to the institution maintaining control over the masses. Over the course of these three classes I will review these negative associations and explain why they exist and how to safely encounter her. Following is an outline of what will be covered in this series

Class 1: Lilith’s textual and mythological history.

Class 2: We will explore what it means to work with Lilith as an archetypal figure in our consciousness. We will learn how she can be a guide to help us navigate our own shadows and become comfortable owning our power and setting fierce boundaries.

Class 3: We will delve into the magical realm and learn how to work with Lilith in ritual and tap into the powerful current of sexual energy within us to co-create our life, while at all times, affirming the highest good for all beings.

This class is open to all!! If she has crossed your path or piqued your interest, then this is the class for you.
