When Ethel, at age forty, decided to take possession of the name that was on her Hebrew birth certificate, she decided to make a ceremony of it by being baptized at a small storefront Gnostic church in Hollywood, CA. That \u201clittle ceremony\u201d pulled her into a transcendent world of early Christian myths and symbols for which she was not prepared. The \u201cdreamtime\u201d that consumed her after baptism became her guidance as her marriage and family crashed and burned. As Hannah, she was drawn up through the church sacraments from a suburban life she\u2019d never wanted to live, through a hermetic initiation, which culminated in ordination to the Gnostic priesthood. This wild mystical journey of initiation through esoteric dimensions radically changed her life and paradoxically gave her a firmer, more authentic ground for living. <br><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-a530094 elementor-hidden-mobile\" data-id=\"a530094\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-aa1eb44 ha-css-transform-yes elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"aa1eb44\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<style>\/*! elementor - v3.20.0 - 26-03-2024 *\/\n.elementor-widget-image{text-align:center}.elementor-widget-image a{display:inline-block}.elementor-widget-image a img[src$=\".svg\"]{width:48px}.elementor-widget-image img{vertical-align:middle;display:inline-block}<\/style>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"432\" height=\"648\" src=\"https:\/\/house-of-freedom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/lobhr.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-459\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/house-of-freedom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/lobhr.jpg 432w, https:\/\/house-of-freedom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/lobhr-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 432px) 100vw, 432px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-d539385 elementor-section-content-middle elementor-hidden-desktop elementor-hidden-tablet elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"d539385\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-bfbaec4\" data-id=\"bfbaec4\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-a6fbfef\" data-id=\"a6fbfef\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8b26765 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"8b26765\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"432\" height=\"648\" src=\"https:\/\/house-of-freedom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/lobhr.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-459\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/house-of-freedom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/lobhr.jpg 432w, https:\/\/house-of-freedom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/lobhr-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 432px) 100vw, 432px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-cabc9df elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"cabc9df\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-6439b8b\" data-id=\"6439b8b\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-eae5938 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"eae5938\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>This story is about wild spiritual love, love lost, and deep dichotomies that when lightly held by an open heart can nourish authentic life.
