Mythology is a fabulous vehicle for getting powerful messages across.....whether for good or bad. Joseph Campbell once said that myths are the collective dreams of a culture. The dream used to be that the Feminine was sacred, powerful, wise, beautiful, and abundantly fertile. Medusa was once worshiped in this way. But when the values of society's culture changed, Medusa's attributes, as well as all of our other visions of our Sacred Mother, were conquered, subdued, vandalized, and changed. In Medusa's case, she was twice-raped; by Poseidon and Perseus. Even Athena, Medusa's replacement image in mythology, symbolically raped and abandoned Her. Society wanted to make good and sure that the Sacred Feminine was stripped of all of her influences.
