A figure in Judaic mythology, Lilith is said to be the first wife of Adam, created not from rib but from the same dust, at the same time. Her desire was not to be subordinate, but to thrive equally, and she refused to play the role of obedience that was thrust upon her. For this, Lilith was banished from the Garden of Eden, cursed to live a life away from the ‘gift’ of Adam and the Garden.
In popular culture, Lilith has been demonized- as a cruel mistress and a destroyer of men and children. She is often portrayed as the ultimate femme villain and someone to be feared. But- how often is a woman cast as villain just for not wanting to conform to what others expect of her? She is considered the first, and sadly is not the last. For now.
We hail to Lilith as an icon of freedom, following your own path and living in full authenticity. We’ve created this space to welcome every single soul in whatever form you present.
We welcome you; the misfits, the eccentrics, the rebels, the nonconformists and those that weave their magic between.
