Let's Talk About How Myths Guide Us Through Change - Join Us Tomorrow
The Myth Workers' Salon is at 11 AM ET, May 4
It was Bealtaine morning, but this spring didn’t make them come alive as it once did. The great fires didn’t seem to burn as bright. There was something missing in the ritual blessing of the cattle. Even the secret trysts in the shadows were somehow drained of passion.
The three sisters were hesitant to name their sense of dissatisfaction. They were queens. Amongst a race of gods, the Tuatha Dé Danann, they were at the pinnacle of their power.
There was Banba who embodied the powers of the water, Fotla who possessed the wisdom of earth, and Éiru who was the energy that rose up and enlivened it all.
They had everything. It would have been foolish to complain.
And yet… They had a sense that everything somehow had to change.
Those lines begin the story I shared on KnotWork Myth & Storytelling this week, The Goddesses Who Welcomed the Winds of Change.
Change is as hard as it is inevitable.
Fortunately, we have countless mythic maps to guide our way…
Tomorrow, at our Myth Workers’ Salon, we’ll use this story as our starting point for what I know will be a broad-reaching conversation about the magic of the oldest stories and the worries of the current moment.
This conversation is open to all paid Myth Is Medicine subscribers.
(Your support on Substack is the financial lifeblood of the podcast, and I am so grateful for each listener who chooses to contribute to the project.)
Join the Conversation Tomorrow
The gathering will be held on Zoom at 11 AM ET on Sunday, May 4.
Why join us?
We have the shared sense that mythology matters in this modern moment.
We know that there’s some sort of personal and collective healing to be found in exploring these old stories together.
Celebrate Bealtaine with other myth and story lovers from across the globe!
