The Rites of passage

The Rites of Passage explore myths and stories of Goddesses embodying distinct and sometimes opposing stances relating to:

Youth and Beauty

Mother and Child

Lover and Wife

Oppression and Protection

Strategy and Battle

Liminality and Descent

These themes resonate with many women today; the Rites of Passage explore what these stories can teach us about our personal mythology as it unfolds with guided creative reflection through:

Painting

Collage

Sculpture

Poetry

Writing

Photography

Creative reflection invites emotional responses to Goddess and personal myths to surface naturally, in a flow state of creativity, without any pressure. 

Each Rite of Passage is marked by a symbolic ritual, and is witnessed, supported and celebrated by others stepping over this same threshold.
