Reversing the Plagues | Led by Catherine Shainberg | 12 – 14 June 2026 | Online | 9:00 AM – 3:00 PM ET (US) | adjust for UK, EU, ASIA, AU
SOI founder Catherine Shainberg leads an intriguing weekend workshop to explore the 10 Plagues as metaphors for the trials of modern life, and how we can reverse these influences. Reversing the Plagues will examine the relationship between Moses and the Pharaoh as metaphors for the Higher Self and Lower Self, respectively. You will practice Saphire® Imagery exercises to repair this relationship.
If you are attending Catherine’s May workshop on Moses, then Reversing the Plagues will add an enriching layer of context.
When illness strikes, should we curse God? Should we fight for our health?
Jacob, our third patriarch, demanded of God that He give us illness so that we would feel the urge to put our house in order. With Adam’s fall we lost our wholeness. Returning to wholeness requires understanding where we deviated and why.
Like Pharaoh of the stiff neck in the Exodus story, we have stubbornly resisted doing what we know in our innermost self needs to be done.
To start the journey back to wholeness, we are going to reverse through the ten plagues to leap into the ten perfect creations. We will return to the holiness of the Garden, to the state of Oneness.
The metaphoric number for wholeness in the Hebrew Bible is Ten.
Why Ten?
The Bible dramatically opens up with ten sounds so powerful they break through non-existence to create space-time and all that occupies it: Light, the Firmament, the Sea and Land, the Sun, Moon and Stars; the swarms of living creatures in the Ocean; and Adam, the first Human, who contains the obligation to make fruitful the gifts we were endowed with.
Illuminating God’s Image in our bodies—these Ten Spheres of Action (Sefirot)—depend on us to act. We must reverse back to the source of Wholeness.
Ten keeps reappearing in the Bible: Ten Generations from Adam to Noah, Ten Abrahamic Tests, Ten plagues, Ten Commandments. It will take us Ten Gates of Transformation before we can return our “semblance”—to One, to God’s Image.
Wholeness requires a soul journey through the desert. The promise is that if we return to Source, to One, to the Godlike Image in the tabernacle of our bodies, we will be restored instantaneously to health and wholeness.
Join Catherine for these transformative three days in which you’ll plunge deeply into yourself and re-emerge in the present with newfound vitality and balance.
