The hidden mysteries of the female goddess
 
Within Judeo-Christian spirituality, who is the mysterious figure that has been 'waiting in the wings', as it were, for at least 2,300 years?

A true 'Lady in waiting'!
 
Here she is in the codex Rossanus (Italian Ethic) appearing to Saint Mark
 
In Christian/Western art, Sophia (especially in the guise of the Blessed Virgin Mary) ... appears to push the boundaries of the traditional belief in the 'devine trinity' to its limits, by suggesting that a more wholesome image should be a 'quateruity' of persons.
 
Even this traditional Orthodox Icon celerbrates the mystery of the fourth by including an angelic pressence within the trinity itself ...
 
 
Who is she? What is her relevance to us at the start of the 21st Centry? Why is she still appearing to individuals in visions and dreams?
 
Today I saw Her
Today I saw Her with my eyes
My Queen, all bathed in radiance,
Rejoicing, my heart stopped beating.
This happened at the golden light of dawn,
A miracle divine
All earthly desire vanished,
seeing Her alone, Her alone, only Her
Vladimir Soloviev (d.1900)
