Golden Women
ritual folklore performance
In the ancient Hungarian spirituality, the Golden Women represented the feminine creative and healing qualities of Love and the transmission of Life. As spiritual guides, they combined heavenly and earthly knowledge. They are the earthly vicegerents of the Goddess quality, women in whom the ancient roots are alive, who know the secrets of the All, who know themselves and the service that comes from their consciousness.
What is it that we have to learn from the ancient initiates of the Celestial Mother?
What is it that the female soul in search of identity of today's age thirsts for more and more?
What has she been deprived of for so long?
The production from the director of the performances "From Lent to Lent" and "My Tale" is a kind of spiritual continuation of the journey begun. Rita Furik approaches her themes with the sacral power of tradition, in this case to restore Woman and Man to their rightful place, and with the symbol of the sun-dressed Blessed Virgin Mary, she is a testimony to the immortal faith. The motifs, embedded in folklore, in the language of dance, live folk music and song, have one purpose: to revive the belief that Love is the only existing and viable channel of communication.
