S5 Ep14: Necromancy, Medusa and Erichtho

We are closing out the shadow season by revisiting Medusa, blood magic, and necromancy as we move toward the Spring Equinox and Aries season, framed as a shift from inward shadow work into passion, life force, and healing. Have you heard the myth in which Perseus takes Medusa's blood, said to be deadly from her left side and the ultimate healing elixir from her right? This duality connects to long-standing right/left spiritual traditions. Asclepius uses the healing blood to resurrect the dead until Zeus stops him by striking him into the constellation Ophiuchus, linked to sacred serpents and medicine. Explore a Thessalian necromancer, Erichtho, who emphasizes necromancy as powerful healing. Reconsider death, ancestral wisdom, and what parts of the self to revive or release as we flow into balance of the worlds, night and day, left and right hand paths, and the healing weaving of polarity and duality.
