This episode of MIssing Witches is dedicated to prophet, mystic, visionary, healer, organizer, artist, composer, brewer, baker, writer, maker Hildegarde of Bingen. To our chorus of questions about the unknown or not yet understood electric, the dimension of mystery that is part of life in countless cultures and traditions, we add Hildegarde, a 12th Century nun who saw the visions in her mind’s eye all her life and then, in middle age when the average woman of the time would have been nearing a death by childbirth, illness, poverty or violence, she spoke her truth out loud about the things Spirit told her, voiced the things that only she could hear, and stood tall and fierce though wracked with pain. Shone even in the dark with what she called the LIVING LIGHT or in other contexts THE GREENESS.
