Baba Yaga: ONCE THERE WERE OLD WOMEN
with Jungian analyst Muriel McMahon
Join Jungian analyst and Keeper of the Stories, Muriel McMahon as we explore the archetype of the Crone. Figured as ‘Baba Yaga’ in Slavic tales, and deformed into a ‘Witch’ in more Eurocentric tales, this ambiguous figure of the feminine at the crossroads must be understood or else we be devoured by her. We must learn how to look her in the face, tend to her wounds, and remind her and us that the feminine in women and in men is a fierce energy that is rightly both feared and revered.
