What is Sacred Theater?
In Greek culture, sacred theater was called Therapia (the work of the gods) because it was considered to be a form of engaging conscious evolution of the soul through ecstatic attunement. It was a sacred medium in which to gather to honor the growing seeds of consciousness. It was a sanctified forum in which to heal, to celebrate, to go to the highest possible denominator together in ecstasy. It explored the mythic, archetypal dimensions of being that actually set and guided the field for our egos to play out the mythic scripting of our soul’s evolution. It opened the field to more mythic expressions of the masks of Self, than our ego’s may have been previously aware. The ancients knew what we have forgotten, that archetypal energy heals, catalyzes and transforms beyond the mind’s ability to cognize. Sacred Theater provides the container for that archetypal transaction to take place.
