“What if the Virgin Mary was not the beginning, but a continuation? Long before the Church, the goddess Isis ruled hearts from Egypt to Rome. She was the mourner, the healer, the Mother of God—her cult promising salvation, protection, and rebirth. When Christianity rose, Isis was outlawed—but not forgotten. Her temples became churches, her festivals became feasts, her image as mother and child transformed into the Madonna and Child. In this episode, we trace how the Cult of Isis was woven into Christian devotion, how her shadow lingers in Mary, and why the Mother archetype can never be destroyed. The Mother only changes her veil.”
