Crone Art Therapy Group (Online)

The word “crone” once symbolized a crown, a sacred emblem of wisdom and honor. Similarly, “hag” is derived from Hagia, as in Hagia Sophia, meaning “Holy Wisdom.” These terms were meant to celebrate the profound insight and spiritual stature of our wise women. Yet, throughout history, patriarchal systems have sought to diminish these figures through derogatory language, reducing them to mere caricatures. Let us reclaim the reverence these words once held and honor the wise women who have been unjustly marginalized by sexism and oppressive narratives. Their wisdom is a beacon that guides us, and their dignity deserves to shine with unyielding brilliance.

This crone art therapy group, hopes to connect mature women with our archetype and:

  • To support women’s mental health during the menopause stage and beyond. 

  • To be part of a creative, supportive, empowering, and positive group of women.

  • To be curious about our own feminine psyche and crone archetype and experience it through art therapy.

  • To connect with our lived experiences and wisdom, and understand how we relate to the crone.
