In his widely acclaimed series ‘Spiritual Exile & Seeds of Promise’, John Philip Newell explores the yearnings that have led countless numbers of people into an experience of exile from the religious traditions of their inheritance, whether in literally leaving church or in looking well beyond its bounds for vision and nourishment.
‘Freeing the Feminine’, the third episode in the series, will explore the longing for a reintegration of masculine and feminine energies in our lives and world. A religion dominated by masculine images of the divine and by historic patterns of male domination contradicts the very nature of the universe.
Today we are journeying toward a spirituality that will free the feminine to move again in sacred relationship with the masculine. We need both if we are to be well.
The presentation by John Philip will be followed by a shared online meditation as well as the opportunity to submit questions and comments to the moderator of our livestream gathering, some of which John Philip will be able to respond to during the one-hour session.
Participants will be sent the Zoom link prior to the program. Unable to attend at that time? Those who register will also have access to a recording.

“Celtic wisdom remembers the sacredness of the feminine. Deep
within us and deep within the matter of the universe is a conjoining
of masculine and feminine energy. Both are of God. Both are
essential to us, individually and as a species. At the heart of the
marriage of heaven and earth is a dance. When the sacred feminine
and masculine move as one within us and make love, we are well.”
