8:00 PM : Historian Max Dashu – Melissae: Bee goddesses and Bee-women

Max takes us on a visual journey, beginning with the ceremony of Cretan and Mycenaean bee-women, and how they relate to sacred dance, shapeshifting and Ariadne’s labyrinth. Melissae was a title of the Delphic oracles and the Eleusinian priestesses of Demeter, and bees were a primary symbol of Artemis of Ephesos in Asia. In Hellenic tradition, milk and honey were offered to goddesses, and bees were said to circle stone honeypots in the Cave of the Nymphs, where they weave life itself. In Egypt, the temple of Neith was called House of the Bee. The Finnish healer Ilmatar sent her bee helper to bring resurrecting vitality from the sun in the Kalevala. And in India, the bee goddess Bhramari evokes the vibrational hum of the cosmos.
