Goddesses for Every Season
The fifty-two goddesses in this beautifully produced collection depict many of the forms in which the female deity has been worshipped around the world since ancient times. Here we meet heroines, queens, witches, healers, proud priestesses, courageous daughters, and cranky crones. The goddesses are grouped according to the seasons of the year when their energies are most potent, so that each week we can draw on the nurturing, creative powers of a different goddess. A full-color plate introduces each season and a black-and-white illustration accompanies each goddess. Author Nancy Blair briefly recounts the myths, geographical and historical associations, and spiritual practices connected with each goddess, then provides a meditation to invoke her. Goddesses for Every Season is a delightful metaphysical celebration of female wholeness and holiness.  --Midwest Book Review
