\u201cI fell because of wisdom but was not destroyed: through her I dived into the great sea, and in those depths I seized a wealth bestowing pearl \u2026 I marvelled at that light and grasped it, and brought it up to the sun. I laid hold upon it and will not let it go.\u201d Words spoken by Makeda the Queen of Sheba found in the Kebra Negast, the sacred text of Ethiopia.<\/p>\n

Taking seriously the promptings of the unconscious as manifested in dreams, in particular one which was synchronous with the finding of an Ethiopian silk scarf, I began to research the Queen of Sheba. I had found a story and an archetype that I felt wanted attention.<\/p>\n

The images of that scarf tell the story of the Queen of Sheba\u2019s visit to the Court of King Solomon. In this presentation I will use the orientation of Jungian depth psychology to shed some lunar light into the Biblical, mythical and historical remoteness of this Queen. I hope to respectfully lift a veil and offer a hint of this feminine divine archetype.<\/p>\n

The Queen of Sheba is described as an \u2018explorer of heart\u2019, it is clear from the story that she has the courage of a lion and yet there is also an obvious humbleness as she searches for wisdom.\u00a0 I believe she underlies inner feminine nature of the heart\u2019s desire and stirs the heart of both men and women therefore needs to be lovingly attended.<\/p>\n

In the legend printed on the scarf the Queen of Sheba initiates a meeting with King Solomon, they meet as equals and from their union, a coniunctio, new life is born.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
