Episode 34 - The Goddess of the Dawn and Reckonings with Time(s)

The ReMembering and ReEnchanting Podcast

In this special easter episode, we look at the curious intersections of a Goddess of the Dawn, the turning point of the Christian calendar and cosmovision, and the way in which time itself was reconceptualized in early medieval Europe, with reverberations and implications for today.
This is an audio essay, not a conversation, and it picks up on threads from some of our earlier work around circular time, the transition into Christianity in Europe, ecclesiastical history, and our ongoing inquiry into the eco-spiritualities necessary to both interpret, respond to, and find faithfulness in the midst of a changing climate.
