SUMMARY:S/HE Forum #1
DESCRIPTION:Forum 1 (0.25 Credit) \nTitle: The Great Goddess of the Winter Sky \nTime: 9AM to 11AM PST on Jan 10 and Jan 24 (two sessions of 2 hours per session) \nOrganizer/Instructor: Helen Benigni Ph.D. in USA \nSummary: The Forum Session “The Great Goddess of the Winter Sky” presents the attributes of the Goddess in her many forms. Vivien Gibbons introduces us to the Blood Mysteries of Womanhood in the Artemis\, Hekate and Demeter trinity that embodies the sacred cycles of the feminine of which Artemis plays a vital role. By tracing Artemis’ roots to the Paleolithic Era with Her bear and bee associations\, Carla Ionesco’s presentation follows Artemis’ evolution from cave to temple bridging her identity into the Classical world of ancient Greece. Drawing on archaeological and iconographic evidence\, Carla Ionescu traces Artemis’ evolution from the cave to the temple\, showing how Artemis’ identity as both wild and sovereign bridges Paleolithic ritual consciousness with the structured cults of the classical world. In an analysis of Artemis as both Creatrix and Goddess of Life\, Death and Regeneration\, Dr. Helen Benigni focuses on the constellations and lunar cycles associated with Artemis in the winter months of the night sky. Finally\, in a discussion that follows the presentations\, the archetype of The Great Goddess of the Winter Sky is explored in Celtic and Greek cultures in a comparison with Brigit in Celtic mythology. \nGuest Presenters: Vivien Gibbons\, Ph.D.\, Carla Ionescu\, Ph.D. \nRegistration is available below: \nRegistration Open: S/HE Forum Course Spring 2026 \n \nShare this:\n				Share on Bluesky (Opens in new window)\n				Bluesky\n			\n				Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n				Facebook\n			\n				Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n				LinkedIn\n			\n				Share on X (Opens in new window)\n				X\n			\n				Print (Opens in new window)\n				Print\n			\n				Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window)\n				Email

SUMMARY:S/HE Forum Course #4 Fall 2025
DESCRIPTION:Forum 4             \nRegistration Here                                                                                   \nTitle: Introduction to the Bear/Shaman Queen Mother\, Goma\, and Her Manifestations \nTime: 8AM to Noon PT December 13 (one session with 15 min break) \nOrganizer/Instructor: Helen Hye-Sook Hwang\, Ph.D. in USA \nBiography: Dr. Hwang is the founder of Mago Academy and the programs of Graduate and Continuing Programs in Creatrix Studies. She is a born poet\, student\, and advocate for Life of ALL and has encountered Ceto-Magoism (the Whale-guided Way of the Creatrix) through her doctoral research on Mago\, the Cosmic Mother/Creatrix. Dr. Hwang received an M.A. and a Ph.D. degrees in Religion with the emphasis on Women’s Studies. To support her research on Magoism (the Way of the Creatrix)\, she enrolled in an M.A. program in East Asian Studies and specialized in Korean Buddhism in UCLA. Authored\, edited\, and published many books and essays by Mago Books and the peer-reviewed academic journal\, S/HE: An International Journal of Goddess Studies\, and Return to Mago E-Magazine. \nSummary: This forum offers a deeper understanding about Goma\, the Bear/Mudang Queen Mother. Goma\, popularly known as Ungnyeo (Bear/Head Woman)\, stands for one of the original triad divine together with Mago\, the Creatrix\, and Gorae (Cetaceans)\, the terrestrial divine. Goma in the 4th millennium BCE foresaw the arrival of patriarchy and carved out the matriversal consciousness of the Cosmic Mother or the Nine Mago Creatrix as a means of salvation for humans to come in the patriarchal era. Founding the nine-state confederacy of Danguk (State of the Living Tree)\, Goma implanted the Ninefold Cosmic Music\, the creative force of the Matriverse\, in her socio-politico-religious institutions\, which we moderns inherited. It is not accidental that we have the legacies of Nine Mothers\, Nine Muses\, Nine Mountains\, Navratri\, and Novena etc. across cultures. Hwang hypothesizes that Goma is the originator of Ceto-Magoism (the Whale-guided Way of Mago\, the Creatrix)\, which remains demonized in major patriarchal myths and religions in the form of the sea-monster/dragon/serpent. Major themes to be discussed include: The cave initiation (the Goma Myth)\, parthenogenesis\, the living tree (axis mundi)\, the color black\, the bear constellations\, the Ceto-Magoist Mudang lineage\, and/or the Ninefold Cosmic Music. \nGuest Presenters: Judy Grahn Ph.D. Kaarina Kalio Ph.D.\, Kirsten Brunsgaard Clausen (Independent Scholar) \nShare this:\n				Share on Bluesky (Opens in new window)\n				Bluesky\n			\n				Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n				Facebook\n			\n				Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n				LinkedIn\n			\n				Share on X (Opens in new window)\n				X\n			\n				Print (Opens in new window)\n				Print\n			\n				Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window)\n				Email
