She is an ordained priestess and focalizer of both the 13 Moon Mystery School and the Rosa Mystica Mystery School, and has been on a path of passionate service for the past thirty years, inspiring women around the world to unleash their leadership gifts and step into their full potential.</p><p>Elayne is also the Dean and Founder of the Priestess Presence School of the Sacred Arts + Temple, a modern mystery school that serves a sisterhood of over 100,000 women worldwide. She trains, initiates, and ordains women as modern‑day priestesses, ceremonialists, and powerful feminine leaders in all walks of life and professions. Her work specializes in helping women tap into their deepest wisdom and harness their own transformational power so they can be more effective and whole in every aspect of their lives.</p><p>In this conversation, you’ll hear about Magdalene consciousness, internal alchemy, and the “noble masculine” now stepping into the room, as well as Elayne’s work with women in perimenopause and menopause, which she frames not as decline but as a second becoming. The episode closes with a powerful blessing and invocation for the divine human in each of us.</p><p>If this episode moves you, please share it with a friend, leave a review, and help us widen this field of love and sacred inquiry.</p><p><br></p><p>In this episode, we cover so many topics, including:</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><ul><li>(00:00:01) Opening, Divine Feminine Context &amp; Offerings&nbsp;</li><li>(00:05:00) Spiritual Awakening: First contact with her Magdalene Consciousness</li><li>(00:11:08) Church of England’s erasure of the Feminine Faces of God</li><li>(00:12:47) Global Pilgrimage and Goddess Traditions</li><li>(00:18:02) What is a Mystery school?</li><li>(00:25:24) Internal Alchemy and Shadow Work: Transforming Judgment and Shame</li><li>(00:36:39) The Sacred Third and the Middle Way Beyond Right/Wrong Polarity&nbsp;</li><li>(00:44:35) Divine Feminine and Noble Masculine: Sacred Union and Christian Tantra&nbsp;</li><li>(00:50:04) Emergence of the Noble Masculine and Co‑Leading Sacred Union Work&nbsp;</li><li>(00:52:07) Menopause as Second Becoming: Wild Knowing, Spiritual Rebirth, and Leadership&nbsp;</li><li>(00:57:06) Closing Blessing and Invocation for the Divine Human</li></ul><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>Helpful links:</p><p><br></p><ul><li><a href=\"http://elaynekalila.com\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Elayne Kalila</a> - Follow Elayne Kalila on Instagram <a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/elayne.kalila/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">@elayne.kalila</a>&nbsp;</li><li>Subscribe to Elayne Kalila's <a href=\"https://elaynekalila.substack.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Substack</a></li><li>Follow Elayne Kalila on Facebook&nbsp;<a href=\"https://www.facebook.com/elaynekaliladoughty/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">@elaynekaliladoughy</a>&nbsp;</li><li>Visit <a href=\"https://pp.priestesspresence.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Priestess Presence</a></li><li>Follow on Instagram <a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/priestesspresence/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">@priestesspresence</a></li><li>Subscribe to Priestess Presence on <a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/priestesspresence/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Substack</a></li><li>Join the Priestess Presence Temple community on <a href=\"https://www.facebook.com/groups/priestesspresencetemple\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook</a>&nbsp;</li><li><br></li></ul><p>Upcoming Offerings by Elayne Kalila, visit her <a href=\"https://elaynekalila.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">website</a> for more information</p><p><br></p><ul><li>Sacred Union Retreat with Andrew Harvey</li><li>Wild Knowing – Free Webinar Series (Perimenopause &amp; Menopause)</li><li><a href=\"https://elaynekalila.com/metamorphosis/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Metamorphosis – Nine‑Month Rite of Passage Program</a></li><li><a href=\"https://elaynekalila.substack.com/p/what-happens-when-the-world-is-motherless\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">What Happens when the World is Motherless</a></li><li><a href=\"https://www.sheldrake.org/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Rupert Sheldrake</a> - biologist and author</li><li><a href=\"https://devaa.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Devaa Haley Mitchell</a> of <a href=\"https://theshiftnetwork.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">The Shift Network</a></li><li><br></li></ul><p><br></p><p>Your host:</p><p>Ongoing Classes by Christine:</p><p><br></p><ul><li><a href=\"https://christinemariemason.com/the-willingness-teachings\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">The Willingness Teachings</a></li><li><a href=\"https://christinemariemason.com/rasa-living-inside-the-mood-of-beauty\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Rasa: Living Inside the Mood of Beauty</a></li><li><a href=\"https://christinemariemason.com/wake-down-class\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Wake Down: Returning to the Erotic Holy Body.
