In this solo episode, Dr. Gertrude walks into the dark. She challenges common fears around the dark, explores the dark wisdom of the feminine, and honors the dark as a season of growth.
As the nights grow longer in the Northern Hemisphere, Dr. Gertrude embraces the change in light. She explores how much of the Western world has come to vilify the dark and shroud the unknown as evil. She shares her personal journey with darkness and debunks outdated myths. Across cultures, these seasons are essential for accessing a different part of the self.
Dr. Gertrude emphasizes the importance of balancing light and dark, like yin and yang. The darkness of the womb, ever-present in the feminine, contains potent knowledge for healing and growth. Society's overemphasis on light, or masculine, characteristics has led to imbalances. The perpetual availability of light doesn’t always serve us. Sometimes, the darkness holds the answers.
