(Ovid, Metamorphoses)
Using METAMORPHOSES, the ancient Roman poet Ovid’s epic volume of mythological storytelling as a vantage point, we will explore the mysteries of transformation in an in-depth online journey over the duration 6 months. We will die some deaths and take manifold new shapes during this time, by connecting to manifold archetypal stories of humans and gods who are turned into flowers, animals or clouds – by magic or fate.
Regular online meetings from the Day of the Dead end of October to spring’s awakening in early May.
An in-person METAMORPHOSES retreat based upon this work will follow in Spring 2023. With sacred theatre, embodied storytelling, and an initiation into 21st century eco-mysteries. There we will delve even more deeply into the pleasures of being Life, always shifting, transmuting, giving and receiving pleasure by simply being alive.
"The willingness to be turned into something else, to take the perspective of plant, animal, air, water, earth or fire, is the most fertile ground for the transformations we as humanity are now invited to undergo in order to thrive along with a planet renewing itself." (Daniel Bernhard)
