Public Displays of Reflection

Female Divine, Creation Myths and Tricksters, Oh my!
This week was an impressive display of everyones teaching prowess.  Mythology is no my forte, nor is it of great interest to me, but hats off to all the presenters, because they not only held my attention and interest, but I actually learned a thing or two.
I know I am biased, but I thoroughly enjoyed the female divine presentation.  Not because I am female, or because I was in the group, but because the concept of a female being at the center of a narrative or the driving force in the creation of culture in a society is pretty exciting! Who knew that Kali would be such a badass?  Torn between her logic and her body's desires.....welcome to the club!
