The ancient mysteries of the Mother and Daughter Goddesses of Greece were expressed through poetry, artwork, architecture, philosophy, and drama. We trace the evolution of the religious festival at Eleusis from the Bronze Age through the Archaic and Classical eras into the early Christian era. Related rituals of the Thesmophoria and the Lesser Mysteries that invoked and celebrated fertility, sexuality, and new life will be discussed, as well as the roots of these rites in the Goddess-and-God-centered culture of ancient Crete. Texts include the Homeric Hymn to Demeter, Plato's Symposium, and Aristophanes Lysistrata.

Art tells us what we were, what we are, and what we are becoming. Explore the superstructure of expanding consciousness through the lens of art and artifacts shaped by the magical, mystical, modern, and postmodern mind. Wilber, Combs, Gebser, and others create compelling frameworks from which to interpret the meaning of mankind's works of art. Students will use these frameworks to arrive at a deep understanding of the consciousness of the artisans that created these works and the times in which they lived. Utilizing both cognitive understanding and affective feeling learning domains, the class will enter the worldview of other stages of consciousness to develop a new sense of appreciation and wonderment for what has gone before and a hopeful anticipation for where the path of expanding consciousness is leading.
