REWIND: Elana Auerbach - OneTaste (aka the Orgasm Cult)

In 'Women Who Run With the Wolves,' Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estés uses rich intercultural myths, fairy tales, and stories to help women reconnect with the fierce, healthy, visionary attributes of the Wild Woman archetype. The book draws heavily on folk tales and mythology from around the world to explore themes of female self-awareness, the forces that stand in the way of this awareness, and the necessary growth cycles of life, death, and rebirth. Estés guides the reader through various stories and commentaries to retrieve, examine, love, and understand the Wild Woman, emphasizing her natural affiliation with the wolf and highlighting the importance of intuition, resilience, and adaptability in reclaiming one's instinctual self.

In 'A Philosophical Enquiry into the Origin of Our Ideas of the Sublime and Beautiful', Edmund Burke examines the nature of taste, arguing that it is grounded in universal principles despite apparent differences. He explores how the senses, imagination, and judgment contribute to our understanding of beauty and the sublime. The work is foundational in aesthetics, linking sensory experiences to broader philosophical and psychological insights.
