In this enlightening episode Valerie and special guest author Kathryn Knight Sonntag delve deep into the integration of the feminine divine, exploring its essential role in achieving spiritual wholeness within the context of the LDS Church.
In this series they discuss Kathryn's book "The Mother Tree," which symbolically represents the feminine divine through the archetypal structure of the tree, breaking down how the roots, the trunk, and the crown can be a metaphor for achieving fully integrated personal growth inclusive of the feminine and masculine within each of us.
This episode focuses on the "roots" and the importance of personal "root work" or personal shadow work in our quest for wholeness...a type of depth work that is generally avoided in masculine systems and structures.
This conversation challenges listeners to confront and integrate these neglected aspects of spirituality, advocating for a balanced embrace of both masculine and feminine traits as exemplified by figures like Eve and Jesus Christ, fostering a deeper, more holistic faith experience.
