Description: Thealogies of birth explores the birthing-potentiality of the divine female/feminine and Great Mother in connection to women’s birth-giving power. Reflecting on thea-logy, as in study of Goddess, through an embodied, eco-spiritual feminist lens that holds birth, those who give it, and all being born as sacred, we inquire into matricentric (mother-centred) understandings of birth and qualities of experience. Weaving meaning with Earth-honouring thea-perspectives, we explore interconnecting threads of goddesses and mothers—write large and small—at the centre of birthing agency, care, and spirituality, and potentials of such in our lives.
