Online Course: 'Kabbalah, Qabalah, and Goddess'

I'm pleased to share with you that I'll be giving an online course through the Women's Thealogical Institute (WTI) of the Re-formed Congregation of the Goddess, International (RCG-I), on "Kabbalah, Qabalah, and Goddess," The 6-week course is slated to begin the week of Jan. 3, 2010 and is based on several chapters from my award-winning book, Goddess Spirituality for the 21st Century: From Kabbalah to Quantum Physics. You don't have to be a member of RCG-I or WTI to enroll in the course. Here is the course description from WTI:

Jewish Kabbalah and Hermetic (aka Western Esoteric) Qabalah are given as examples of metaphysical systems that include both male & female depictions of divinity. But do these depictions show equality or something else? This course gives a conceptual history of both Jewish Kabbalah and Hermetic Qabalah (which combines Jewish, Christian, Egyptian and sometimes other symbolism), and traces and re-visions the Tree of Life, which is their central symbol, back to its likely source: the Ancient Near East Goddess Tree of Life.

Other online WTI courses scheduled to begin the week of Jan. 3 include: "Introduction to EFT" with Boye Nagle; "Ritual Tarot Spread" with Bellezza Squillance; "Shamans, Skywatchers and Storytellers" with Sid Reger; "Personal Artwork for the Triple Goddess" with Laura Keefe; "Creating a Magical Home" with Debi Smith; "Nuts & Bolts: Writers Workshop" with Kip Parker, and "Ogham & the Seasons of the Sun" with Bendis. Registration begins Dec. 1. For more information, including how to register, go to this page on the rcgi.org website.
