Monday: 10:45 AM-12:00 PM
Millennia ago we selected the crow as a messenger to the gods, as demonstrated in cave art, the myths and stories of numerous cultures, and subsequent literature/art. What do we sense in crows that makes them fit for such a role? Review the myths, art, literature and recent scientific studies to discover answers.
This offering meets for a total of 13 session(s).
