Overview

"In Cauldron of the Feminine, a profound exploration through dreams of the shift away from a patriarchal religion to freedom, Pearl leaves the sky gods and travels unwittingly to the underworld. Gregor asks tantalizing questions about women's initiation, descent to the substrate of our consciousness, and healing by embracing the Sacred Feminine archetype. Her story is told through dreams soaked in the imagery of the goddess Inanna, Queen of Heaven and her dark sister Ereshkigal, Queen of the Underworld. ""What boundaries are self-imposed and where are we complicit in retaining the comfort of too-closed, too-familiar boundaries imposed by the patriarchal culture in which we live? Born of sinew and blood and seeds, this book of becoming--through madness and sanity--through the feminine and patriarchy, provides a gentle and powerful companion to those willing to courageously enter their own authentic journey to selfhood."" -- Dr. Ara Parker, Registered Art Therapist and Psychotherapist ""Dreams Along the Way: A Trilogy of Memoir is a necessary voice in the dialogue of Western culture's patriarchy in institutions, organized religion, family dynamics and role expectations."" -- Leanne Stam Engbers, teacher and writer www.dreamsalongtheway.com"

Author Information

PEARL GREGOR was born and raised in homestead country, northern Alberta. She became an educator, administrator, provincial government consultant and along the way, a radical feminist. She came to writing through a series of inexplicable premonitions of things unknown. In 1988 at the age of 43, Pearl found the inner world of meditation, dreams and writing to heal your life. I, the Woman, Planted the Tree: A Journey through Dreams to the Feminine tells her experiences in healing clinical depression and recognizing that a deep spiritual transformation is underway in her psyche. Slowly she notices the depth of patriarchal control in the lives of women. Intense soul work begins. She learns the power of dreams. Authoring Self: A Journey through Dreams to the Feminine begins the deep and terrifying journey to reclaim her feminine soul and recognize the power of the Great Mother dormant in the underworld and in exile for several thousands of years. Pearl is stripped of her identity as the daughter of the patriarchy. Now in the final book in the Trilogy, Cauldron of the Feminine: A Journey through Dreams, the process of initiation into the mysteries of the sacred feminine continues. The goal is nothing less than renewing her deep feminine soul through the inexorable grinding torture of becoming her authentic self with the guidance available through the universal power of Christ consciousness and the ancient pre-Christian remnants of women's religion wherein the divine was changing woman. Pearl lives on her farm outside the hamlet of New Sarepta, Alberta. Her crone years are filled with the delights of adult children, grandchildren and many friends. She works with the energy of the emerging feminine. She offers both in-person and online dreamwork sessions, dream workshops, an immersion experience through her Dream Sanctuary and of course, book talks, writing workshops and much more.
