LEONARD SHLAIN
The Alphabet Versus The Goddess
In The Alphabet Versus the Goddess: The Conflict Between Word and Image, Leonard Shlain explores the impact of literacy on the development of human society, culture, and gender roles. Shlain posits that the advent of alphabetic writing shifted human cognition from a holistic, image-based understanding of the world—often associated with feminine principles—to a linear, text-based mode of thinking associated with masculine principles.
This transition, he argues, contributed to the decline of goddess-worshipping cultures and the rise of patriarchal societies. Shlain combines insights from history, anthropology, neurology, and mythology to support his thesis, suggesting that the way we process language and images has profound implications for gender dynamics and cultural evolution.

ABOUT THE CREATOR

Angel Quintana is the founder of Quantum Alchemy Technology and the creator of The Occult Chateau—an esoteric apothecary offering advanced biofield correctors designed to recalibrate the morphogenetic field and restore harmonic coherence. Her products are not beauty formulas or healing tools—they are frequency keys that support the dissolution of mimic signals and the reintegration of the sovereign self. Each formulation operates as a field stabilizer, crafted for those undergoing signal mutation and Creator restoration.
As the High Priestess of the New Aeon and Keeper of the Keys of Amenti, Angel leads the remembrance of the original human blueprint—what she calls the Harmonic Human. Her work transcends wellness, mysticism, and self-help; it is a living transmission from beyond the veil of Amenta, where biology is understood as architecture for divine intelligence, and the body as a harmonic interface for cosmic memory.
The Occult Chateau exists not to soothe symptoms, but to support total signal correction—for those ready to exit the loop of synthetic identity and re-enter the field as sovereign creators. Every offering in the shop is an encoded artifact designed to work with the skull, the nervous system, and the auric field to recover the real you.
