E28 From Ancient Goddess Cultures to Patriarchy – What happened?
What can we learn from ancient Goddess cultures—and how did patriarchy reshape human history?
In this episode of the Legacy of Love Podcast, Asherah takes us on a profound journey into humanity’s forgotten roots, exploring the wisdom of Goddess traditions and the shift into patriarchal systems that still affect us today.
For over 30,000 years, cultures around the world revered the Great Mother, also known as Gaia, Shakti, and countless other names, as the life force animating all creation. These societies were deeply connected to the Earth, to ritual, and to cycles of life and death. But with the rise of patriarchy, these sacred ways of living became suppressed, leaving modern humanity with deep wounds of disconnection and imbalance.
If you’ve ever felt the absence of ritual, belonging, or spiritual grounding in your life, this episode offers both remembrance and invitation—to reclaim what was lost and live in deeper harmony with the Earth and each other.
