About this listen

Is there a lineage of goddesses that claims the evolutionary power of female sexuality? Was Mary Magdalene one of them, and what were her teachings?

Dr. Joanna Kujawa argues that in the process of recovering the healing power of the Goddess we have focused solely on the mother archetype and left out the other Goddess, who is often represented in mythical, historical, and Gnostic sources as wise, mysterious, and in the possession of the healing power of Eros.

Looking into esoteric traditions that celebrated the Goddess and her art of sexual alchemy, Dr. Joanna Kujawa discovers that Mary Magdalene stands at the center of this investigation. Learn about her portrayal in the gnostic gospels as a teacher and Jesus's intimate partner, the possibility of her life as an alchemist in Egypt, and her last years in Southern France. Find out her connection to the mysterious Cathars, Black Madonnas, and Knights Templar.

Whether looking at Mary Magdalene, Sophia, Aphrodite, Inanna, Hathor, Isis, or the goddesses of esoteric Hinduism, Dr. Kujawa finds the archetype of The Other Goddess—the bearer of the mysteries of sexual alchemy that ends the division between sexuality and spirituality.

Thank you for creating such a great book after decades of your own journey with the goddesses and your research. I knew quite a bit about Mary Magdalene but there are always other threads to integrate. I love how the book connects the goddess lineages and it has helped me immensely to deepen my understanding of my own journey home.
