Wisdom
is Feminine
”Wisdom is a woman, a
crone, a goddess, and a feminine archetype. In Greek mythology she is a barely
personified Metis, swallowed by Zeus. In the Bible she is a hidden Sophia, the
goddess who became an abstract and ungendered concept. Wisdom may be found at
twilight where the three roads meet as Hecate, or in the hearth fire as Hestia.
She may be the invisible Shekinah who enters the Jewish home for the meal that
begins the Sabbath. She was once the Celtic goddess Cerridwen. She is
Saraswati, the Hindu goddess of wisdom and Erda in Richard Wagner’s Ring of the
Nibelung.”

Jean Shinoda Bolen.
