CPAK 2008 Topic: Archetypes of the Sacred Feminine in Ancient Egypt

When examining ancient cultures, we tend to look through the lenses of our current cultural paradigm, yet subtle details are easily missed when interpreting ancient Egypt from a patriarchal perspective. Dr. Carmen Boulter will be speaking about archetypes of the empowered feminine in ancient Egypt showing evidence which is clearly depicted in the symbols on temple walls and ancient artifacts. The ancient Egyptians had a sacred cosmology that held the sacred feminine in balance with the sacred masculine thus they were able to function as empowered humans. Carmen will also explore the matriarchal roots of dynastic Egypt.
