She is a priestess of the Fellowship of Isis, an international spiritual organization devoted to spreading awareness of the Feminine divine, as represented by the ancient Egyptian goddess Isis. Christine has also been ordained into the priesthood of the Gnostic Church of Saint Mary Magdalene. She is a creator and facilitator of ritual, a founding mother of the California Alliance for Women, a Peer Spirit circle guide, and a SoulCollage(R) facilitator. Her passion is storytelling in all its myriad forms and she delights in uncovering the perennial wisdom embedded in the world's myths, folk stories and faerie tales. Poetry is her medium of choice, but stories have their own imperative and sometimes demand a longer telling as in her novel, Magdalene A.D. Return to Inanna is in memory of the Honorable Olivia Robertson fondly known as Lady Olivia, Archpriestess and founding mother of the Fellowship of Isis, who introduced me to Sacred Theater, ordained me as Priestess, and inspired me to study the art of creating ritual.I am honored to follow in your footsteps.

Download or read book Persephone Returns written by Tanya Wilkinson and published by Council Oak Books. This book was released on 1996 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using myth and fairy tales, Dr. Tanya Wilkinson adds insightful commentary on the individual dynamics and cultural patterns which contribute to the deep schism between "victims" and "heroes" in our society. In modern life we sympathize only with the blameless victim, and cling to the image of a "heroic ideal" - that is, if we are only good enough or strong enough, bad things will not happen to us. But bad things do happen to good and strong people, as well as to people who are not entirely blameless. Dr. Wilkinson moves beyond the debate of "who's at fault". Using the Persephone myth and four fairy tales, the author instead illustrates the deep archetypal forces at work in victim experiences and encourages us to search for the emotional and spiritual maturity which may be gained from them.
