Book excerpt: Storyline:Eurydice�s parents require her to marry a prince from another kingdom, but she flees the palace to find Zeus, her true love. Orpheus accompanies her on this insane journey which is full of dangers and mythological beings. The goddess Hecate helps them secretly. Synopsis:The feature film "The Three Faces of Hecate" is set in ancient Greece, in a village near the Aegean Sea. A young princess named Eurydice lives there with her mother and two older sisters. One day, Eurydice listens, hidden, to her sisters' conversation. One tells the other one about the God Zeus's love affairs, saying that he can turn into any creature to seduce women. The two seem euphoric, thinking that they could also be lovers of this god. Princess Eurydice, at the time only seven years old, is intrigued by the story, and begins to think that Zeus may appear for her, too, in the form of an animal. First, as she wanders alone in the woods, a butterfly lands on her nose, and she looks cross-eyed at the insect and says, "Zeus?". Then, as Eurydice grows up, she asks every animal that approaches her the same question: "Zeus?". Concurrently, with these first scenes, we meet another character, Orpheus, a commoner boy who grew up with Eurydice in the palace where his mother is a servant. Orpheus is in love with Eurydice from the beginning, but she does not realize that. When Eurydice gets older, her mother informs her that she will have to marry a prince from another realm, in an arranged marriage for political and financial interests. But the young woman does not want to marry, so one night she dreams of Hecate, with her three forms (a young woman, an old woman, and an elderly woman), who tells her that she will have to make a choice between three paths. Upon awakening, Eurydice does not understand the prophetic dream and, thinking that she is in love with Zeus, she decides to escape the arranged marriage with the prince by traveling to Mount Olympus to meet the God Zeus. Orpheus tries to warn her of the dangers of this journey but, because she does not listen to his advice, he decides to go with her on this insane trip, and the two flee from the kingdom. On the way to Mount Olympus, they face a series of dangers and a wide array of mythological beings: on the land, at sea, in the sky, and down in the underworld. Throughout their journey, Hecate helps Eurydice and Orpheus secretly. At the end of this trip, at the foot of Mount Olympus, Eurydice gives up searching for Zeus because she realizes that everything she thought about him was an illusion. At this moment, Hecate shows herself to Eurydice and tells her that she now has only two paths to choose from since she has already eliminated one of them. But the young princess tells Hecate that she cannot see two paths, but only one, which is to return to her kingdom and marry the prince. Her parents had betrothed her, she reasons, and the union would ensure harmony between the two kingdoms. Eurydice and Orpheus start on their way back to the kingdom but, during the trip, Orpheus risks his life for her and almost dies. Only then does the princess realize that Orpheus is the other path Hecate was trying to show her. After caring for Orpheus, Eurydice realizes that she loves him. She decides to stay with the young man and not with the prince. She ends up opting for her true love, Orpheus, discarding the other two paths: an illusion of love for a god, and a marriage of convenience to a stranger. The story uses mythological imagery to plumb the depths of the feminine imagination that has inspired people down through the ages. Eurydice's determination drives the story forward, and it is her choice in the end which brings resolution.

Book excerpt: The Temple of Hekate is a vibrant and exciting collection of modern rituals and practices exploring the mysteries of the Goddess Hekate. In this book Tara Sanchez draws together her knowledge of ancient practices and literature merging it with her personal experiences and ideas. Thoroughly modern, but steeped in history, this is a book of rituals, meditations, divinations and other techniques through which the reader is invited to explore the magick of this ancient goddess of the crossroads, sorcery and witchcraft. The reader is introduced to essential practices such as keeping a magickal journal, setting up the altar, ritual purification, sacred space, preparing incenses and making a ritual robe; as well as more advanced practices such as ritual gestures, sacred vowels and dream incubation. Other techniques covered include knot magick and phylacteries, psychic development and the use of banishing rituals. The exercises in this book present the beginner with everything they need, and the experienced practitioner with a new and fresh perspective. Divination is a very popular area of study amongst those interested in modern witchcraft and magic, and this book presents a unique Hekatean approach to using and interpreting the Major Arcana of the Tarot. Through drawing together ideas from ancient literature and applying it to modern works, the author has created the Oracle of Her Sacred Fires. This oracle is a system of divination by dice and draws on the writings of dozens of modern priests, priestesses and mystics who contributed to the anthology Hekate Her Sacred Fires (d'Este, 2010) - a wonderful blend of old and new! The comprehensive appendixes provide additional reference material which can be used to enhance workings with the Goddess Hekate. They include material on Hekate and the other Gods, herbs, plant and animal correspondences, other spiritual beings such as daemons, the winds and the four elements - as well as techniques for reduction sigils and planetary hours. Filled with a blend of ancient and modern wisdom, ritual, technique and theory - this book is essential reading for complete beginners, intermediate students and experienced hands who are looking for relevant 21st century insights and ideas, which also honour the past - and in the process it opens up entirely new ways through which to explore the magick of the Goddess Hekate today.

In this celebration of Act Three, Jean Shinoda Bolen, Jungian analyst and bestselling author of Goddesses in Everywoman, names the powerful new energies and potentials -- or archetypes -- that come into the psyche at this momentous time, suggesting that women getting older have profound and exciting reasons for welcoming the other side of fifty.

Book excerpt: Thomas Middleton (1580-1627) - 'our other Shakespeare' - is the only other Renaissance playwright who created lasting masterpieces of both comedy and tragedy; he also wrote the greatest box-office hit of early modern London (the unique history play A Game at Chess). His range extends beyond these traditional genres to tragicomedies, masques, pageants, pamphlets, epigrams, and Biblical and political commentaries, written alone or in collaboration with Shakespeare, Webster, Dekker, Ford, Heywood, Rowley, and others. Compared by critics to Aristophanes and Ibsen, Racine and Joe Orton, he has influenced writers as diverse as Aphra Behn and T. S. Eliot. Though repeatedly censored in his own time, he has since come to be particularly admired for his representations of the intertwined pursuits of sex, money, power, and God. The Oxford Middleton, prepared by more than sixty scholars from a dozen countries, follows the precedent of The Oxford Shakespeare in being published in two volumes, an innovative but accessible Collected Works and a comprehensive scholarly Companion. Though closely connected, each volume can be used independently of the other. The Collected Works brings together for the first time in a single volume all the works currently attributed to Middleton. It is the first edition of Middleton's works since 1886. The texts are printed in modern spelling and punctuation, with critical introductions and foot-of-the-page commentaries; they are arranged in chronological order, with a special section of Juvenilia. The volume is introduced by essays on Middleton's life and reputation, on early modern London, and on the varied theatres of the English Renaissance. Extensively illustrated, it incorporates much new information on Middleton's life, canon, texts, and contexts. A self-consciously 'federal edition', The Collected Works applies contemporary theories about the nature of literature and the history of the book to editorial practice.
