Announcing Scholar Salon 2 with Kathy Jones

“Motherworld: Creating a Life-affirming Society for All”

Wednesday, September 25, 2019 
2:00-3:00 PM Eastern Time, online

MotherWorld is the society where Mother Earth, mothers and the values of mothering – love, care and support for each other, and for all Her creatures and nature – are placed in the center of our lives and communities.

In MotherWorld, creative and life-affirming values, actions, insights and awareness are honored and encouraged in women, men, children and all genders. It is the society that is grounded in the fact that we all live upon our Mother Earth–the source and foundation of all that we are and all that we have. We need to honor and take care of Her, of each other and of all life.

Kathy says, “MotherWorld is a grassroots movement which can change everything, arising from the Earth Herself. We are exploring what it means to create a MotherWorld community within Glastonbury Goddess Temple and we are setting up a MotherWorld political party.”

Internationally known goddess scholar Kathy Jones is the recipient of ASWM’s 2018 Demeter Award for Leadership in Women’s Spirituality. She has lived and worked in Glastonbury, England for the last forty years where she has played a key role in bringing the awareness of Goddess back not only to Glastonbury, but to Europe, the U.S., and the world. Kathy is Founder, Creative Director and Temple Weaver of Glastonbury Goddess Temple, Goddess Hall, and Goddess House.  She is Founder of Glastonbury Goddess Conference, and is the MotherWorld Initiator. The author of ten acclaimed Goddess books, Kathy is a teacher offering the three-year Priestess of Avalon training, as well as Soul Healing and other Goddess trainings.

Feminism on the Borderlands with Dr Monica Mody

Tuesday, April 16, 2019,  3:00 – 4:00 pm Eastern Daylight Time

Neolithic Women’s Figures

ASWM is hosting conversations with scholars about issues relating to women and mythology.  In order to be eligible to participate, renew your membership before April 13, 2019. We will send the  Zoom call in information to all current members on April 14.

How do we move into the borderlands and reclaim our full relationship with modernity, secularization, and the shadow spaces in our own psyches? How do we relate to the shadow produced by European and western modes of being, thinking and relating to the world, to each other and to ourselves? What do we need to give up? What do we reclaim and bring to the surface?

Let’s have a lively discussion on these questions that transcend disciplines and affect our daily and creative lives as women.  Join Dr. Monica Mody for an inspiring discussion on discovering the shadow projects of modernity and secularization from the perspective of feminist and borderlands spirituality and scholarship.
