With Renowned Spiritual Pioneer & Author of Over 30 Books
Matthew Fox
A 7-Module On-Demand Video Training
 

 

Meditate on St. Hildegard of Bingen’s wisdom, art, and music as her compassion, courage, and resilience inspire you to become a trailblazer in your own inner life and community.

Humankind, full of all creative possibilities, is God’s work. Humankind alone is called to assist God. Humankind is called to co-create. With nature’s help, humankind can set into creation all that is necessary and life-sustaining.
St. Hildegard of Bingen

 

In an era when women were marginalized, 12th-century mystic St. Hildegard of Bingen stood out as an outspoken, controversial figure. At the same time, kings, popes, abbots, and bishops sought her advice.

As a writer, composer, philosopher, Christian mystic, Benedictine abbess, healer, artist, feminist, and student of science St. Hildegard, known as the Grandmother of Creation Mystics, was a pioneer in many fields.

Hildegard rebelled against the patriarchy of church and society, asserting that God was both female and male and that God existed in all of the cosmos and everything within it.

She oversaw a Benedictine monastery overlooking the Rhine River in Germany.

For many centuries after her death, Hildegard was ignored and even ridiculed. Today, she’s finally being recognized for her huge contributions to developing both the healthy masculine and the healthy feminine, to understanding of our spiritual relationship with the Earth, and more.

Join us for a 7-module course with renowned spiritual pioneer Matthew Fox. You’ll explore the many ways Hildegard was radical in her day and how this wisdom speaks to the issues we’re facing in the 21st century.

Hildegard maintained that the outer defiling of the natural world is mirrored by an inner drying up of our souls. It’s time for us to follow in Hildegard’s footsteps and acknowledge and honor our interdependence with all things.

As Matthew will share, Hildegard’s wisdom can help us break the cycle of greed and destruction that’s destroying Mother Earth and step up to fiercely protect and help her heal.

Where did Hildegard derive her courage from? Her wisdom? As you’ll discover, much of her prophetic work was based on art as meditation.

Each session, Matthew will encourage you to consider the artistic dimensions of Hildegard’s teachings her music, painting, gardening, poetry as well as her work in the healing arts and her connection with the universe, which we would refer to as shamanism today.

As you’ll discover, Hildegard practiced prayer and meditation in her music, painting, gardening, music, poetry, and more. She deeply understood that art expands the heart and inspires courage. Join us and experience how the bold, radical life of faith she lived in the 12th century can transform your own spiritual journey.

Mirabai Starr: Matthew Fox Will Go Down in History as One of the True Spiritual Geniuses of Our Age”

Andrew Harvey: “Matthew Will Illumine Your Life as He Has Illumined Mine”

 

What You’ll Discover in These 7 Modules

In this 7-part transformational intensive, Matthew will guide you through the fundamental skills you’ll need to put your spirituality into action as you draw inspiration from St. Hildegard’s courage, wisdom, art, and music.

This course will feature training sessions and experiential practices with Matthew. Each session will build harmoniously upon the previous ones, so you’ll develop a complete holistic understanding of the practices, tools, and principles you’ll need to answer the call for an uncommon life through the mystical teachings of St. Hildegard.

Module 1: How Hildegard’s Story, Vocation & Life Can Inspire Your Journey

 

Hildegard’s life (1098-1183) spanned most of the 12th century, a period that historian M.D. Chenu called “the only renaissance that worked in the West.”

She was an integral part of that renaissance, which was characterized by the return of the Divine Feminine and was herself a “renaissance woman” in every sense of the term.

In this opening session, Matthew will share her basic life story and the most foundational influences on her work as she taught a creation-centered view of the world.

These influences include the Celtic tradition (she was raised in a Celtic monastery in Germany), and the wisdom literature of the Hebrew Bible, including cosmology in Genesis 1.

Hildegard came from the Benedictine tradition and, as you’ll discover, stories of Native American traditions seem to have influenced her too.

In every session, Matthew will guide you to meditate on Hildegard’s paintings, mandalas, or music (both instrumental and vocal compositions) depending on what best fits the theme of the class.

In this module, you’ll:

  • Learn how acknowledging the Divine Feminine impacted Hildegard’s culture, and impacts our culture as we move beyond patriarchy as a philosophy
  • Learn about the Green Man, an essential archetype for recovering the Sacred Masculine and for defending Mother Earth
  • Place our modern-day relations with Indigenous people in the context of Hildegard’s paintings of “the red man” and “the red-headed divinity” and the paintings’ messages of replacing anthropocentrism with cosmology
  • Discover Creation Spirituality and how it can connect you to nature’s sacred elements
  • Move through a guided meditation on Hildegard’s self-portrait and her paintings of Indigenous peoples together, they tell the story of her awakening experience at the age of 42
 

Module 2: Hildegard’s Cosmology & Psychology and the Integration of Science & Spirituality

 

Inspired by many different Indigenous philosophies, Hildegard’s worldview does not begin and end with the human. Even her psychology is set within the context of cosmology microcosm (human) and macrocosm (universe).

Matthew will guide you to explore Hildegard’s worldview and how she believed humanity fit into the universe. The concept of humanity's role in the universe is common to both Indigenous and premodern consciousness and it grounds a society’s ethics. Hildegard’s paintings expressed her views on these issues, and Matthew will guide you to meditate on them.

Hildegard declares that “all science comes from God.” Matthew will share about Hildegard’s many books featuring scientific topics.

Hildegard also talks about the “original wisdom” all humans are born with and how life’s journey is to set up the “tent of wisdom” that comes folded into us as babies.

In this module, you’ll explore:

  • How Hildegard’s teachings on holistic health and healing are relevant for us today
  • What Hildegard and Einstein have in common, how Hildegard’s science is, in certain ways, a harbinger of our postmodern science and how it urges us to integrate today’s science into our religious consciousness
  • How Hildegard's eagerness to evolve and grow intellectually and spiritually and her take on individuation can help you overcome obstacles as you embrace your work in the world
  • How Hildegard was inspired by the archetype of the Cosmic Christ (also known as “Buddha Nature” or “Image of God”), and how this can help you understand yourself
  • How Mary Oliver and Hildegard see eye-to-eye on the sacredness of the world all around us
  • An experiential exercise where you’ll consider some of Hildegard’s praise poems to the Earth and the universe, and her paintings that depicted the universe as an egg, and later the universe as a circle
  • How to create your own “I am” poem as an echo of Hildegard’s, exploring the divinity within yourself
 

Module 3: How Hildegard’s Courage, Wisdom & Creativity Can Illuminate Your Path

 

Hildegard was both a mystic and a prophet. Philosopher William Hocking called the prophet “the mystic in action.” Jewish theologian Rabbi Heschel said the primary work of the prophet is “to interfere.”

In this session, Matthew will share how Hildegard interfered with patriarchy and other elements of her culture. She wrote letters to popes, emperors, bishops, abbots, and others all telling them what to do.

When she was 81 years old, Hildegard and her sisters were all interdicted (in effect, excommunicated as a group) for disobeying the bishop. They didn’t back down and were reinstated one year later.

Art expands the heart and teaches trust, which lies at the heart of courage and spiritual warriorhood. Matthew will encourage you to consider the artistic dimensions of Hildegard’s teachings her music, painting, gardening, and poetry.

Matthew will also share about Hildegard’s work in the healing arts and her experiences with what we call shamanism today.

In this module, you’ll explore:

  • Joy and ecstasy, and how to expand your courage
  • Strength and the Sacred Masculine, and how you can stay grounded in your own prophetic and mystical vocations
  • The virtues’ powerful positive impact on education and society
  • Art as meditation (“the way of the prophets”) and how you can shake up and reform education by bringing wisdom into our knowledge factories including intuitive ways of knowing alongside analytical ways of knowing 
  • Shaking up education and, by extension transforming every profession
  • The 3 rings of humans’ relationship with nature and divinity experienced through a guided meditation on Hildegard’s painting of the 3 rings
 

Module 4: Hildegard’s Connection to Julian of Norwich, Mechthild of Magdeburg & More  (With Guest Faculty Mirabai Starr)

 

In this module, Matthew will be joined by Mirabai Starr, a 21st-century woman, mother, grandmother, translator, and lover and student of the mystics. She’ll share what Hildegard means to her and how Hildegard has impacted her life.

Mirabai will also share short passages from Hildegard of Bingen: Devotions, Prayers & Living Wisdom, a book she compiled featuring Hildegard’s writings and her own poetic reflections.

Matthew will dive into a deep discussion with Mirabai about Hildegard’s relationship to the spiritual sisters that came after her including Julian of Norwich and Mechtild of Magdeburg.

In this module, you’ll discover:

  • The women’s movement of the Middle Ages that came about in the century after Hildegard’s death 
  • How Hildegard’s amazing development of the feminine side of God serves as a model for women (and men) in the 21st century by inspiring gender balance
  • The importance of the creative arts in Hildegard’s life, and concrete examples for enhancing your own spiritual journey through the creative arts
  • A dialogue between Matthew and Mirabai to illuminate Hildegard’s important role in developing a 21st-century spirituality
  • Mirabai’s guided group prayer to Hildegard, and how you can compose your own prayers to wisdom beings who inspire you accessing them as living allies on your path
 

Module 5: Practicing the Sacred Masculine, Opposing Matricide & Defending Mother Earth

 

An essential part of recovering the Goddess and the Divine Feminine, as Hildegard did, is cultivating a healthy, nontoxic masculinity. 

Matthew will explain how this is important for both men and women. After all, women have many men in their lives!

As Matthew will share, the feminine soul has a masculine and feminine side, just as men have a goddess within them.

Hildegard led the way by acknowledging the Sacred Masculine within herself as well as by critiquing unhealthy patriarchal versions of masculinity. 

In our current cultural climate where gender identity and gender relationships are in flux and we need to move from a patriarchal consciousness to an inclusive one if our species is to survive Hildegard’s teachings hold powerful wisdom for both men and women.

In this module, you’ll discover:

  • How to find inner strength from Hildegard’s paintings
  • The Blue Man, an archetype of compassion and creativity that we all carry within ourselves
  • How to develop the imagination and strength to defend Mother Earth as the Green Man does and birth a new version of humanity
  • How Hildegard’s call that “the Earth should not be injured, the Earth must not be destroyed” can wake us up to our vocation combatting our current eco and climate crises
  • A guided meditation on Hildegard’s images of the healthy masculine found in women and men
 

Module 6: Taking on the Shadow of Evil

 

When Matthew first shared some of Hildegard’s paintings with a Jungian therapist on his faculty 43 years ago, the therapist called Hildegard “the most mature person he’d ever seen” because she deals so explicitly with the shadow in many of her paintings.  

Matthew will guide you to meditate on several of Hildegard’s paintings of the shadow, observing what they have to say about evil.  

You’ll explore Hildegard’s teachings about facing evil and not running from it, and preparing the warrior energy to combat evil. Matthew will share Hildegard’s prophetic teachings and the prophetic letters she wrote to emperors, popes, abbots, bishops, and more.

For Hildegard, strong feminine energy comes from the lower chakras and from the Earth. Matthew will guide you to meditate on Hildegard’s paintings that share these powerful truths. You’ll also consider lessons from her poetry, which celebrates the ecstasy we find in nature.

In this module, you’ll explore:

  • Hildegard’s teaching that failures in eros and in justice-making are the primary faults of humans and how you can advance both in yourself and your culture
  • What Hildegard teaches about the shadow, helping us address our shadows by facing the violence in our culture instead of repressing it
  • Hildegard’s paintings of the Christ who comes from below to combat evil forces, and how redemption comes from the Earth and from below
  • A guided meditation on Hildegard’s paintings of the shadow and demons including violence and war images
 

Module 7: Hildegard & the Future of Humanity & Mother Earth

 

In this final session, you’ll explore Hildegard’s deep understanding of angels.  

For example, angels delight in ritual, good human work, and helping humans in art, creativity, music, and more. 

Matthew will explain the angels’ presence and how they help humans transition to the next phase after death. As you’ll discover, angels move at the pace at which human thoughts travel.
 
Matthew will also share how a shaman is (among many things) one who’s undergone deep initiation and emerges to serve and heal the community as Matthew will explain, this description fits Hildegard perfectly.

In this module, you’ll discover:

  • How to follow Hildegard’s example and teachings to integrate the Divine Feminine and the Sacred Masculine into your life and community 
  • Matthew’s (and co-author Rupert Sheldrake’s) discussion of Hildegard’s perspectives on angels, as laid out in their book The Physics of Angels
  • How to call in spirits and angels who are eager to assist you
  • How Hildegard’s shamanic work can inspire you to access your own inner shaman
  • A final guided meditation on Hildegard’s paintings that depict community and the Divine Feminine

“... I never tire of reading his books, and taking any of his classes.”

I am an interfaith minister wishing to have a deeper focus in Creation Spirituality ever since I read Matthew Fox’s book Original Blessing some years back, and I hope to start an Order of the Sacred Earth here in my own community in the future. Because Matthew Fox has been an inspiration for me for some time, I never tire of reading his books, and taking any of his classes. What he has offered me, and can offer others, is a more informed and joyful existence on this Earth. He does this by telling the truth of how and why we are in this state of affairs we are in, as well as offering answers to a more informed, inspired, and joyful life.

“I have found new confirmation and courage to act on my inner calling and numinous experiences.”

Matthew Fox is a comprehensive researcher and thinker, which makes him a modern-day mystic and prophet by sharing his new concepts with us. I find his work so inspiring because it resonates with my own experiences. His bravery to stretch beyond the conventional in order to be true to his soul’s truth and essence is a model for me to do the same. I have found new confirmation and courage to act on my inner calling and numinous experiences. Thank you, deeply.

More Praise for Matthew Fox…

 
“(Matthew is) a major teacher and guide.”

I think of Matthew Fox as “God’s Talent Scout” for all the pivotal figures and ideas he has reclaimed for the reform of Christianity. He knows the sources and translates them into modern idioms for the rest of us! What he has done with Hildegard, Eckhart, and Aquinas himself makes him a major teacher and guide.
Richard Rohr, OFM, Center for Action and Contemplation, Albuquerque, New Mexico

 
“If one person deserves credit for the great Hildegard renaissance in our time, it is Matthew Fox.”

If one person deserves credit for the great Hildegard renaissance in our time, it is Matthew Fox. Here in the long-lost legacy of Hildegard of Bingen, Fox found blindingly beautiful paintings, radiant writings overflowing with fresh insights of the deepest kind, prophetic wisdom, and engaged political spirituality. Here was a mystical genius who could help to illuminate the human soul spirituality, ecologically, politically in every dimension of life.
Mary Ford-Grabowsky, author of Sacred Voices

 

About Matthew Fox

Matthew Fox is a prolific author of books dedicated to renewing the ancient tradition of Creation Spirituality, including Original Blessing, A Spirituality Named Compassion, and Christian Mystics. This earth-based mystical tradition is feminist, welcoming of the arts and artists, honors Indigenous wisdom, works with science, and is committed to interfaith approaches and eco, social, and gender justice.

Matthew’s effort to reawaken the West to its own mystical tradition has sparked awareness of Hildegard of Bingen, Meister Eckhart, Julian of Norwich, and the mysticism of Thomas Aquinas, as well as the wisdom tradition that nurtured Jesus. His work helps reconnect science and spirituality by honoring the sacredness of the cosmos and interacting with contemporary scientists who are also mystics. He believes that “by reinventing work, education, and worship, we can bring about a nonviolent revolution on our planet.”

He has written three books on Hildegard: Illuminations of Hildegard of Bingen, Hildegard of Bingen’s Book of Divine Works, and Hildegard of Bingen: A Saint for Our Times.

Matthew received his doctorate summa cum laude in the History and Theology of Spiritualities from the Institut Catholique de Paris. A member of the Dominican Order for 34 years, he established an Institute in Culture and Creation Spirituality that operated for seven years at Mundelein College in Chicago, and for 12 years at Holy Names University in Oakland.

He founded the University of Creation Spirituality in Oakland in 1996, and was president and professor until 2005, when he left to create a pilot project to reinvent the educational experience for inner-city teenagers.

Matthew is a recipient of many awards, including the Gandhi King Ikeda Award from Morehouse College, which is awarded for dedication to peace, unity, nonviolence, and justice. He also received the Peace Abbey Courage of Conscience Award; other recipients have included the Dalai Lama, Mother Teresa, and Rosa Parks. He is currently a visiting scholar at the Academy for the Love of Learning in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
