Seminar Sessions on Dramatherapy on Woman by Dramatherapist Vasso Papali

2nd Round: Minerva

Minerva is the virgin daughter, the mother of Speech and Arts, the goddess of creation and transfiguration. She is omnipotent, male and female. Minerva can always distinguish between right and wrong. Hence, she is a fighter, an alchemist and a weaver at the same time and she can inspire us to lead a dynamic life through creativity.

In this seminar, complicated life problems of every single participant are going to be examined through dramatherapy techniques and meditation exercises. Their reasons and solutions are about to be investigated.

Which interconnection could be detected between modern woman and the Ancient Greek Goddesses?

The dramatherapist Vasso Papali believes that myths about the female element are the medium that helps us comprehend the archetypes functioning in the fields of psychology and our personality. They might be distant during the time span but they encapsulate eternal values. Then as now, myths were created in order to inspire and remind us about the sanctity of existence. She uses myths, fairy-tales, novels and theatrical plays in her dramatherapy, in order to approach the real-life roles and conditions through the fictional ones.

The beginning was made by the rigorous study of Medea, the Archetype of Mother. She was the Great Mother that had been worshiped for over thousand years by the pre-historic people. Medea’s archetype has survived throughout the centuries and she lives inside every woman that suppresses her children in either rough or delicate ways. She will be always there without showing mercy, until women are going to be treated with love, respect, tender, protection, freedom.

Hence, an idea is born in order to enhance all the free, conscious and inspiring elements in the role of mother. These mothers will wean descendants with free consciousness and generous temperament and these ideals can be detected inside the female archetypes of the Ancient Greek Goddesses, before the coming of the patriarchy.

The goddesses are contemporary women’s psychological prototypes. Every single woman can observe elements of her character in one or more goddess, depending on her family, conditions and willingness to change.

Seminar sessions based on the archetypes of Diana, Minerva, Venus, Juno, Ceres and Persephone are offered either separately or in a continuous flow, giving a wider and more spherical understanding.

The seminar is addressed to women of all ages.
