Taking place on Saturday, 28 April 2018, journey to meet four Goddesses who are often associated with the "shadows" and reflect aspects of our own selves we would rather hide from or ignore instead of embracing and accepting.
Psychoanalyst Carl Jung described the "Shadow Self" as the "unknown dark side of the personality", that which is instinctive and irrational, and that which is even perceived as "personal inferiority". Yet the "Shadow Self" is also referred to as the unconscious aspect of the personality which the conscious ego does not identify in itself. This means that NOT every aspect of the "shadow self" is actually negative - there may very well be positive parts of our own self residing in the Shadow that we have yet to identify with consciously.

Who is the Dark Goddess?
There is more to the "Dark Goddess" than being an elderly woman, the Crone, Hag or Death Bringer aspect of the Goddess. She is the shape shifter, the initiator, the challenger, the seductress. She reminds us of our own mortality, our fears and failings in order to help us transform our lives.
During this interactive workshop, we journey into the hidden depths of the Underworld to meet the Keeper of Secrets and the Cauldron of Inner Knowledge, the Mover and Shaker, the Sorceress ... and all the other names by which the Dark Goddess has been referred to.
Through our own fear, we often ignore or misinterpret the Dark Goddess because it is She who reflects our own mortality - however, it is She who also guards the magickal Cauldron of Transformation, and it is only through transformation that our soul continues to evolve and grow.
From the moment that you enter through the veil, you will be accompanied by various aspects of the Divine Feminine, those Goddess who prefer to reside in the shadowy realms, who move through the dreamscape, where linear concepts such as time have no meaning.
Just like Neo in the 1999 movie "The Matrix" the choice is yours - which "pill" will you take? The blue pill of ignorance and illusion or the red pill of reality and the Dark Goddess.
Deep soul work such as this requires 100% commitment. If you are serious about wanting to make change in your life, to break free of cyclic patterns, to gain true closure, you need to step into the shadows and journey deep within yourself in order to face what resides there.
The Dark Goddess is waiting ....
