Who is the Black Madonna?
10-week In-Person Class
Held at Marilyn’s home adjacent to The Whidbey Institute in Clinton, Whidbey Island, WA
Wednesday Evenings
7:00pm- 9:00pm PDT
Sept. 18th - Nov. 20th, 2024
Sliding Scale $150 - $225
We will read and discuss together the following books:
The Black Madonna by Fred Gustafson and Waking Up to the Dark: The Black Madonna’s Gospel For An Age Of Extinction, by Clark Strand.
We will use chant, the sharing of our personal stories, and participation in small rituals to personalize the content and to build community together.
To stimulate our discussions, Marilyn will also draw on content from other resources that contribute to a necessary multi-faceted understanding of who the Black Madonna is: Mysteries of the Dark Moon, by Demetra George, The Cult of the Black Virgin by Ean Begg, Conscious Femininity by Marion Woodman, and God Is a Black Woman, by Christena Cleveland, PH.D.
