In this enchanting episode, we embark on a captivating journey into the world of courtly love and its profound connection to the mystical worship of the divine feminine. A place where romance and spirituality converged. Join me as we step into the medieval ages, where courtly love flourished as a poetic tradition intertwined with the goddess worship that predated Christianity. Through the melodies and verses of troubadours, wandering artists who carried the torch of goddess worship, courtly love found expression in captivating songs and poetry. Together, we’ll experience the transition of pagan goddesses such as Artemis, Sophia, and Diana to the veneration of the Virgin Mary within the realms of the Catholic Church.
