What if the goddess of the hunt was never just a huntress? 🌙🏹

In this episode of Seeking Numina: The Sacred Places Podcast, I’m joined by historian and goddess researcher Dr. Carla Ionescu to explore the forgotten power of Artemis as she is one of the most misunderstood deities of the ancient world.

Together, we unravel sacred sites, whispered myths, and the hidden truth behind her temples and what they reveal might just change everything you thought you knew about the divine feminine.

✨ Why did Artemis have more temples than any other Olympian?
 ✨ What do archeological ruins and oral traditions still carry for us today?
 ✨ How can we reconnect with goddesses who’ve been buried by history?

Tune in for a deep, soul-stirring conversation about sacred wildness, divine memory, and reclaiming the feminine spirit woven through the ancient world.
