REGISTER HERE

 

Our Scholar Salons usually feature the work of a single woman scholar. On this special occasion our Salon will be a conversation between two remarkable women who, in addition to their other work, have blended scholarship and arts to create beautiful and memorable divination decks. Vicki Noble is a feminist healer and wisdom teacher, co-creator of the Motherpeace tarot and author of numerous books including Motherpeace, Shakti Woman and The Double Goddess. Lisa Levart is a visual artist/photographer of women and goddess images, nicknamed the “Annie Leibovitz of Goddesses,” whose Goddess on Earth Oracle Deck features 45 portraits of real women portraying the Divine Feminine.

Lisa Levart

Lisa Levart is a visual artist/photographer whose interest lies at the intersection between fine arts and social engagement. Her subjects are women and how our stories connect us to one another. Her work blends several mediums, including collage, film, multi media, dance and photography In addition to many galleries, Lisa’s work has been mounted in unique environments such as a 4-story installation of photo banners at the Palisades Center Mall, and as an immersive, multi-media installation at The Luna Stage Theater. Her book Goddess on Earth: Portraits of the Divine Feminine (2011), won a Gold Nautilus Book Award and was named one of the 100 Best New Women’s Spirituality Books in 2018. In that year, Lisa and Grandmother Clara Soaring Hawk, Ambassador of the Ramapough Lenape Nation, spoke at the Parliament of World Religions on the topic of using art to build bridges between cultures, and their ongoing collaborative series, “Women of Ramapough Lenape Nation.”

Vicki Noble

Vicki Noble is a feminist healer and wisdom teacher, co-creator of Motherpeace and author of numerous books including Motherpeace, Shakti Woman and The Double Goddess. She says of her inspiration, “The female lineage from which I draw is a holistic underground stream that runs from the most ancient times when women were unquestioned spiritual leaders and teachers at the center of our human communities.” For decades she has traveled and taught internationally, and her books are translated and published in various languages. Retired from teaching as a graduate professor in two Women’s Spirituality Masters Programs in California, Vicki teaches workshops and speaks in public venues in the U.S. and Europe. At home in Santa Cruz, California, she facilitates private intensive tutorials with women from around the world who come to study Motherpeace Tarot or to learn the Tibetan Buddhist Dakini practices she adapts and creates especially for them. In 2017, Christian Dior licensed the round feminist Motherpeace images for a special “cruise line” of clothing.

Scholar Salon 37

Patriarchal Capitalism/Capitalist Patriarchy is an artificial and pernicious system that is destroying Mother Earth and her children. We need to return to the deep economy of the human mother, based on the model of unilateral giving to needs, a model that every child has to experience in order to survive. Economic theorist Genevieve Vaughan explores issues related to maternal gift-giving.
