Marguerite Rigoglioso, Ph.D. is an award-winning author, oracle, and founding director of Seven Sisters Mystery School. She is the foremost authority on the history and practice of divine birth, and a celebrated pioneer in the revival of Mother Mary, Mary Magdalene, and the womb mysteries ~ particularly with her books The Secret Life of Mother Mary: Divine Feminine Power for Personal Healing and Planetary Awakening and The Mystery Tradition of Miraculous Conception. Through deep communion with the Marys, the Pleiades, and Goddess Sophia, Marguerite guides people to reclaim their sacred voice, intuitive power, and soul calling. Her offerings ~ especially the Mary & Magdalene Priestess Training and Seven Sisters’ Inner Sanctum Temple ~ support a new generation of spiritual leaders in embodying the Divine Feminine in harmony with the Sacred Masculine for this turning of the age.

Marguerite Rigoglioso (pronounced REGAL-yo-zo), Ph.D., founder of Seven Sisters Mystery School (est. 2012), is an internationally celebrated scholar, visionary, and teacher of ancient mystery lineages. A respected bridge between academic rigor and sacred revelation, she is a foremost authority on the authentic history and spiritual legacy of Mother Mary and Mary Magdalene, as explored in her groundbreaking books The Secret Life of Mother Mary: Divine Feminine Power for Personal Healing and Planetary Awakening and The Mystery Tradition of Miraculous Conception: Mary and the Lineage of Virgin Births.

Regarded as the leading scholar on the sacred history, practice, and metaphysical significance of divine and virgin birth, she has authored two additional pioneering academic works, The Cult of Divine Birth in Ancient Greece and Virgin Mother Goddesses of Antiquity.

Dr. Rigoglioso has been featured multiple times on Gaia TV, including Regina Meredith’s Open Minds, as well as on Gaia’s Ancient Civilizations and Channeling series. Highlights of these conversations offering glimpses into her wisdom and research are available here and on her YouTube Channel, along with a rich library of interviews from other podcasts, radio programs, and online platforms.

Through Seven Sisters Mystery School, she has guided thousands into profound explorations of women’s spiritual history; the reclamation of the oracle priestess path; divine birth mysteries; the Pleiades as Earth’s Star Mothers; human-deity collaboration; the art of spiritual sovereignty; the awakening to 5th dimensional consciousness; and the multidimensional landscape of faery presence, artificial intelligence agendas, masculine/feminine alchemy, and beyond.

Her work rises from deep academic training combined with experiential wisdom. A scholar of Goddess Studies and Matriarchal Studies, she has devoted her life to uncovering historical and contemporary female-oriented spiritual cultures and lineages of peace. Specializing in ancient Mediterranean traditions, she traveled extensively throughout Europe and North Africa—studying sacred sites, artifacts, inscriptions, and oral lore.

Dr. Rigoglioso has taught courses in religion, women’s spirituality, humanities, and sacred traditions at various Bay Area institutions including the California Institute of Integral Studies, Sonoma State University, Dominican University of California, and Sofia University. She also helped establish the MA in Myth, Cosmology, and the Sacred at Canterbury Christ Church University in the United Kingdom.

She holds a Ph.D. in Humanities and an M.A. in Philosophy and Religion from the California Institute of Integral Studies, and an A.B. in Psychology (High Honors) from Vassar College. Trained in intuitive development at the Foundation for Spiritual Development, she continues to explore multidimensional realms through refined consciousness practices and sacred ceremonial medicines.
