Goddess Athena: Tap into your Creative Intelligence with Astrology

The Mythic City Within is metaphor for the inner workings and residence of the psyche. The way we view ourself and the world is constructed by this mythic city.

Myths are a key to the Amenta (mind) and subconsciously they teach us about life values while strengthening our imagination and expanding our vision.

The stories told and retold in the mind, especially how we deal with conflict, create our physical reality; they also hold keys to the creation of a New World.

The ancient Greek myths tell us that Athena, the goddess of the mind, was the first born of her father Zeus’ brain and that she became the archetype for pathos or divine winning and persuasion.

Athena is an important resident of your mythic city.

In this class we’ll explore Athena and The Mythic City Within to see how she can help you create a democracy within, which will ultimately create a democracy without — as above, so below.

We will do this through Nightside conversation, Life Path Astrology®, and by getting curious!

Together we’ll explore your birthchart to expand upon “The Mythic City Within”, so you can better understand your Nightside, Athena’s role in your society, and how to harness and develop her field of genius, so we may become the change we wish to see in the world by first becoming it within!

For those who cannot attend live, the recording will be available inside The Rise of Sophia Library.

This class is available to The Library Members.

What is Creative Intelligence?

Creative intelligence refers to the capacity to think and problem-solve in innovative and imaginative ways. It involves the ability to generate unique ideas, make connections between seemingly unrelated concepts, and perceive patterns that others may overlook. The power to see patterns is a fundamental aspect of creative intelligence and plays a significant role in various domains, including art, science, technology, and entrepreneurship.

By recognizing patterns, individuals can make predictions, identify trends, and uncover underlying structures or relationships. This skill allows them to approach problems from different angles, find innovative solutions, and come up with novel ideas. Creative thinkers often excel at seeing connections between disparate concepts, finding analogies, and identifying recurring patterns in complex systems.

Developing and honing the ability to see patterns requires curiosity, open-mindedness, and a willingness to explore unconventional ideas. It involves breaking away from conventional thinking and embracing a more holistic and intuitive approach to problem-solving. By cultivating creative intelligence and pattern recognition skills, individuals can tap into their innate capacity for innovation and find new and inventive solutions to the challenges they encounter.
