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.
