Reclaiming the Feminine Divine:

History, Archetype, and the Path to Wholeness

Leaders: Lisa Haake and Lisa Merrifield

Mondays, October 19-November 9
7:00-8:30 pm
At Pure Being in Urbana

A four-part Venus retrograde journey back to something ancient and essential. 

For centuries, the sacred feminine has been diminished, feared, and forgotten — and with her, a wholeness that belongs to every person, regardless of gender. In this four-part series, we'll trace that unraveling: from the cosmic and karmic cycles and the rise of patriarchy, through matriarchal and matrilineal societies, to the feminist movements that fought to restore balance — and the unintended costs those movements carried for men, women, and families alike.

Venus is retrograde this fall, inviting us to purify and renew our relationship to our ancestral and essential femininity. Together we will create a supportive and respectful space to explore our personal and collective journeys. Through meditation, journaling, reflection, and discussion, we'll explore the archetypes of the Goddess across culture and cosmos, examine the qualities of masculine and feminine energy, and begin reclaiming what wholeness actually asks of us — not a return to matriarchy, and not a rejection of the masculine, but an integration of both within ourselves.

Open to all — regardless of gender, background, or prior experience with this material. Come curious. Explore integration and wholeness.  Leave knowing yourself better, with increased resilience, and with a community to continue healing.
