Course detail: We Were No Monsters

Furies, Harpies, Gorgons, whores, and witches are among the monsters of mythology as well as Hecate, Kali, Tiamat, and Cailleah. Today we know them as women or deities intent on doing some sort of harm that in some cases includes seduction. However, this was not originally so. This course explores how these versions of the Divine Feminine were demonized over time once patriarchal cultures invaded the areas in which they were worshipped.
