Draw inspiration and energy from the power of the Goddess all year long with this portable, week-by-week companion. A celebration of female deities and spirituality, this collection of Goddess-themed meditations includes 52 entries, arranged according to seasonal potency. From the Butterfly Maiden of spring to the Rainbow Serpent of winter, each Goddess's mythological, historical, and geographical associations are explained, along with the spiritual practices connected with her. Accompanied by a glorious illustration, each entry also includes an "affirmation" to uplift and empower. Whether you invoke the name of a Goddess long worshipped in her corner of the world, such as Gaia, Kali, Artemis, and Aphrodite, or a newly "rehabilitated" entity, such as Lilith or Hectate, you will benefit from the creative, nurturing power of these female life forces. Throughout the year, each weekly meditation will bless, caress, and awaken you to the vast spiritual heritage of women's wisdom.
Discover a host of gods and goddesses, some of them familiar, others forgotten or unknown. Drawn from cultures around the globe, divided by region and fully illustrated. From Tiamat (the great mother goddess of the ancient Mesopotamianst) to Olorun (the "Owner of the Heavens" for the Yoruba people of Nigeria).
Goddesses, feminine images of the divine, often are labeled as one-dimensional forces of nature or fertility. In examining a number of goddesses whose primary role is sovereignty, contributors to this volume go beyond the narrow vision of the past to discover the rich diversity of goddess traditions. Drawn from a variety of cultural and historical settings, the goddesses described here include Inanna of ancient Sumer; Mazu, a goddess still worshipped in southern China; Oshun of Nigeria; and Cihuacoatl of pre-historical America.
