#100 - Starhawk, Spiral Goddess

Starhawk is the legendary author, activist, permaculture designer and teacher, and a prominent voice in modern earth-based spirituality and ecofeminism. She is the author or co-author of thirteen books, including The Spiral Dance: A Rebirth of the Ancient Religion of the Great Goddess and the eco-topian novel The Fifth Sacred Thing, and its sequel City of Refuge. Her most recent non-fiction book is The Empowerment Manual: A Guide for Collaborative Groups, on group dynamics, power, conflict and communications.

Starhawk is a cofounder of Reclaiming, an activist branch of modern Pagan religion, and continues to work closely with the Reclaiming Community. She also founded Earth Activist Training, teaching permaculture design grounded in spirituality and with a focus on activism. She travels internationally, lecturing and teaching on earth-based spirituality, the tools of ritual, and the skills of activism.

On this episode, Starhawk discusses the history of the Goddess Movement and The Spiral Dance; the relationship between magic and activism; and why witchcraft is a practice of poetry, science, and hope.

Pam also reflects on 100 episodes of The Witch Wave, and answers a listener question about deities of divine masculinity.
