Exploring Medial Intuition
March 14, 2015 @ 3:00 am - 8:00 am PDT
Laurie Layton Schapira is the author of The Cassandra Complex: Living with Disbelief. The book views the Greek myth of Cassandra as an archetypal image of afflicted medial (mediumistic) intuition and how it has manifested as hysteria during the patriarchal era. Now on the brink of the New Age, we need to heal this crucial feminine function.
In this workshop, through discussion and experiential exercises, we will explore the nature of medial intuition.
