Hades as the Divine Masculine Container

In this episode of Hades and Persephone Teach, we explore one of the most misunderstood moments in myth: Persephone’s descent into the underworld. Far from the popular narrative of Hades as a cruel abductor, we peel back the layers to reveal his true essence—one of integrity, moral code, and unwavering duty.
Persephone arrives in the underworld carrying all her unhealed chaos, pain, and trauma. Instead of fixing her, denying her, shaming or silencing her grief, Hades represents the divine masculine at its highest form: the container that holds space, validates pain, and offers protection so that true healing can begin.
We’ll dive into:
The myth debunked: Why Hades was never the villain.
The mirror of the divine masculine: How Hades teaches us the power of presence without control.
The underworld as a healing metaphor: Why staying in our trauma stories feels like eternal hell.
Initiation through the masculine container: How the divine masculine provides the safety needed for transformation.
Persephone’s descent is not just her story—it’s ours. Every one of us has moments where we land in the depths of our own chaos. And like Hades, the true divine masculine within and around us is always present, ready to hold us until we are ready to rise.
Whether you’re healing trauma, reclaiming your feminine energy, or seeking to embody the masculine with integrity, this episode will invite you into a deeper understanding of how sacred partnership between these energies creates the ground for rebirth.

The Liminal Space - Returning to Your True Self

In this episode, we dive into the mystery and power of the liminal space, the in-between, where the old has fallen away but the new has not yet fully formed.
The liminal space can feel uncomfortable, even scary, because it is a place of the unknown. Yet it is also the most critical part of your healing journey. Here, free from the weight of outside expectations, you have the chance to pause, reflect, and consciously create your new identity.
You’ll discover:
What the liminal space is and why it matters
Why the unknown is necessary for true transformation
How this space allows you to come back to your truth and authentic self
Practices to help you embrace the liminal space instead of resisting it
The liminal is not a void to fear — it’s the threshold of your rebirth.

Persephone and the Unhealed Feminine

In this second episode of our series Hades and Persephone Teach: Divine Masculine and Feminine Union, we journey into Persephone’s story as a mirror of the unhealed divine feminine.
We uncover how her “dark night of the soul” began long before Hades carried her into the underworld — shaped by a toxic masculine father (Zeus) and a culture that reflected distorted masculine power. From this myth, we explore how the feminine must cultivate strong boundaries to truly heal and rise into her wholeness.
You’ll learn:
Why it’s not Hades or Persephone, but Hades and Persephone
The truth about balance: yin and yang, Shakti and Shiva, as complementary, not 50/50
The difference between toxic vs. healed feminine energy
The difference between toxic vs. healed masculine energy
How the two energies are meant to move together as one
This conversation is an invitation to reflect on your own masculine and feminine energies — and how integration, not separation, leads to wholeness.
