The Western Way

“Beneath the well-mapped landscape of Western Spirituality, runs a traditional esoteric pathway which has acknowledged the ancestral lore and hermetic knowledge of the West. This perennial wisdom has woven its bright and beckoning thread through the religion, folklore and magic, ever reminding us of our connection with the earth mysteries of our ancestors and the mysticism of the Gnostic traditions.”

Sophia, Goddess of Wisdom, Bride of God

“Reclaiming the Divine Feminine from exile in the West, Caitlin explores her many ancient forms worldwide to prefigure a realistic Goddess theology for Westerners.”

Initiation into the mysteries of all our ancestors:

Caitlin Mathews's Friday evening speaking engagement at ITP will give an in depth overview of the intensive work participants will experience during the weekend workshop.
