Spiritual dandelions

Article Abstract:

Zsuzsanna (Z) Budapest has had three very strong role models, her grandmother, a Suffragist, her mother, a sculptor and a spiritual medium, and an aunt. Z grew up in Hungary, but fled to the US where she formed a spiritual group for women based on the Old Religion, paganism. This was her way of reclaiming a path of empowerment for women. She became a feminist, finding in feminism the space in which both her world view and spirituality converged.
