Gnostic Woman is a journey to recover the fragmented soul from the alienation of the modern world. It is a re-enchantment and restitution of the feminine body and soul.
Cultivating an awareness of what obscures our essence and committing to a path of inner work, Gnostic Woman focuses on integrating aspects of the feminine that have been lost, banished, or exiled over the past few thousand years.
This work also speaks to the feminine principle in men; both men and women have suffered the loss of feminine wisdom.
Gnostic in this context refers to inner knowing ‘gnosis’ rather than any historical religious sect, however an exploration of the gnostic texts is included in this work. Bearing in mind that almost all history, teachings, religion, and culture has been filtered through an androcentric lens, the prospect of resurrecting a feminine gnosis is vital and exciting.
Unlike some of the ancient Gnostics, ‘Gnostic Woman’ includes an embodied awareness and celebration of spirit in matter- immanence and transcendence. Making the body a home, and a strong vessel for the soul and spirit, is an important step to finding the gold within.

Breathwork can lead us to the softness of the heart and de-armour defences that have outlived their purpose.
The very advancements that Ted Kaczynski warned us about are the new tools of control; today there is no need for cold war brainwashing techniques, the topography of our soul has been well charted. And yet… somethings remain sacred, impenetrable, governed by laws and codes out with the jurisdiction of even the most powerful men of the technocratic world.
They called this portrait of Christina Morgan the “New Eve” little did they realise she was in fact the “New Lilith”.
I have no doubt that on some subtle, unspoken level I was assigned the role of lineage bearer and cycle breaker, however it is time to free myself from the weight of this obligation. I do not resent the role I was given, nor do I hold any resentment towards my family. There is nothing to forgive; all of us, each one, had a role to play, each one guided by his or her soul. I feel only love and compassion for us all, and yes, some sadness too for what we have endured.
