You know you have arrived at the Threshold…
⚜ Where you once felt certain there is only uncertainty.
⚜There has been loss in your life and nothing is the same.
⚜A version of you is slipping away and you aren’t sure who you are anymore.
⚜ The calling of your soul is pulling you to let go of something precious so you
can embody something that hasn’t yet been loved.
⚜You feel your faith, courage and trust being tested.
Welcome

For millennia, mystical and rooted traditions across cultures have considered
this in-between place to be the most sacred ground.
It is believed to be one of the most important times for releasing, ancestral healing, dreaming and seeding our dreams for the path ahead.
Underground temples, caves, cairns, subterranean springs and other sacred places were used for the rituals necessary in these moments.
There is tremendous potential and power at the crossroads.
It contains everything required to support you in navigating the
unknown of becoming.
Most of us never learned how to meet ourselves with love when faced
with all that arises at the crossroads.
It’s vulnerable.
No one taught us how to tend to the holy ache that arises in our hearts,
to the grief that arrives to heal us.
Modern culture has taught us that this kind of darkness is to be feared.
But this is the darkness of the primordial mother.
An underground place that holds all the nutrients, nurturing and energy
needed to feed and restore our roots.
Nothing needs to be fixed, only held and ritualized.
This is the womb of the heart of the Black Madonna.

But this is the darkness of the primordial mother.
An underground place that holds all the nutrients, nurturing and energy
needed to feed and restore our roots.
Nothing needs to be fixed, only held and ritualized.
This is the womb of the heart of the Black Madonna.
The Black Madonna is our Primordial Mother.
She is linked with the Great Mother Goddess who pre-dates Christianity.
Her roots can be traced back to ancient Egypt and beyond.
Black Madonnas started to emerge in Europe as early as the 3rd Century.
The dark, primordial cosmic mother has had a cult following
for much longer than that.
There is as much mystery surrounding who she is as there are
miraculous stories of healing and seemingly impossible transformations.
Ancient texts document many pre-Christian visions of her through the elemental connections found in caves, stones, mountains and sacred waters.
She is the mystery within the divine mystery.
The sacred, nourishing darkness.
The womb of ALL of creation, including the light of consciousness itself.
The place we all return to.
She has been a healing beacon of miracles and grace for all those who seek solace in her darkness when they find themselves in the unknown of the crossroads.
Her power and unconditional love endure.
Her heart is the most loving place that holds us and guides us across
the alchemical terrain of the crossroads.
When we are able to connect with the Black Madonna as the Dark Primordial Mother, she assists us to release what we cannot take with us, heal ancestral burdens and offer us wisdom, comfort and direction.
We meet her.
She enters our hearts.
We merge with her.
We emerge through the threshold loved.
Transformed.
The Black Madonna is Queen of Heaven.
The Dark Alchemical Mother.
The Great Mother of the Underground.
The Mother of Us All.
She yearns for you as much as you yearn for her.
If you have ever felt the pull to the Black Madonna and her mystery,
but not the institution itself…
If you love her in the wild places, the dark primordial liminal spaces, at the crossroads, in all her phases of the moon or in the faces of women who have lost,
endured and risen anyway…
This is for you.
