She is a creator and facilitator of ritual, a founding mother of the California Alliance for Women, a Peer Spirit circle guide, and a SoulCollage(R) facilitator. Her passion is storytelling in all its myriad forms and she delights in uncovering the perennial wisdom embedded in the world's myths, folk stories and faerie tales.

Book Synopsis Persephone Returns by : Tanya Wilkinson
Download or read book Persephone Returns written by Tanya Wilkinson and published by Council Oak Books. This book was released on 1996 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using myth and fairy tales, Dr. Tanya Wilkinson adds insightful commentary on the individual dynamics and cultural patterns which contribute to the deep schism between "victims" and "heroes" in our society. In modern life we sympathize only with the blameless victim, and cling to the image of a "heroic ideal" - that is, if we are only good enough or strong enough, bad things will not happen to us. But bad things do happen to good and strong people, as well as to people who are not entirely blameless. Dr. Wilkinson moves beyond the debate of "who's at fault". Using the Persephone myth and four fairy tales, the author instead illustrates the deep archetypal forces at work in victim experiences and encourages us to search for the emotional and spiritual maturity which may be gained from them.

Book Synopsis The Biography of Goddess Inanna; Indomitable Queen of Heaven, Earth and Almost Everything by : Sandra Bart Heimann
Download or read book The Biography of Goddess Inanna; Indomitable Queen of Heaven, Earth and Almost Everything written by Sandra Bart Heimann and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2016-09-29 with total page 587 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When stars were many and people few, a great story was told everywhere. The first storytellers were women. Their story was so large it filled the universe it told of a Great Mother encompassing life, death and return of everything. When Neolithic farming people settled, and depended on plentiful crops and herds, a goddess of fertility stepped into stardom. Inanna is the Sumerian goddess of love, crescent moon, evening star, fertility and renewal. She is the longest lasting supreme goddess of the Ancient Near East. Inannas biography includes her rise to supreme holder of almost all the powers of culture and civilization. 5000 year old poems bring Inanna to life. She sings to her miraculous vulva and to her consort-lover; she struggles to keep her powers and complains of her losses and demotions. Inanna represents lifes powerful contradictions. She changes peace to war and back again; she causes strife and brings love; she turns women into men and men into women. Inanna loves all her people, every one. A biography must have adversity and Inanna has plenty; she must always conquer of the ever-rising tide of patriarchal domination in all its forms. Buried and forgotten for two millennia, she now steps from the dust, ties up her sandals, applies her kohl, adjusts her tiara, summons her lions, and returns. Her story is also womans story. Let me introduce you to Inanna, Queen of Heaven, Earth, and almost everything

Download or read book The Descent written by Gonca Alban and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2015-03-28 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Descent is the story of a woman who, crushed by a devastating separation, sets off on an inner journey to discover her true self, her heart, and free it from its shields, shackles and chains to be able to live her life fully, with joy and passion. Sophia is guided by her dreams. When she experiences her entire life crashing down around her, she finds herself buried under debris, mud and darkness. She crawls her way deeper into the darkness, to find what is hidden there. Each chapter begins with a dream, image and sometimes internal bodywork, followed by meaning, understanding and real life events and feelings around what is happening. Sophia, guided by her dreams, peels layer after layer of abuse-driven protection and barriers, unblocking constrictions and delving deep into darkness and pain to find the innermost beauty of a shining soul, trapped under many layers of protection, self-hate, guilt and fear, created from suffering to provide self-defence. Her dreams reveal the truth about herself, helping her understand who she truly is. She starts to understand her truth and her hidden unconscious. Sophia is drawn down into investigating her shadow, curious about what is hidden there, desiring to live a more fulfilled, aware, whole and happy life. What she encounters is at times surprising and heartbreaking, at times hopeful and joy-releasing. Discovering what has been hidden leads her to a new life, full of joy and understanding, compassion and forgiveness, contentment and peace. The Descent is written in a way that shows how dreams can lead us, how their symbolism can be interpreted and how they can be used to help guide us in our lives. It is a fascinating read for those who are feeling lost in life, as well as anyone who enjoys the story of an ordinary woman’s discovery of herself.

Book excerpt: Lost civilizations? Origins of mankind? Why does mankind seem to need religion? Why is there so much confusion and mental indigestion manifest among not only rank and file mankind, but also actively demonstrated by the "academics"? After all, does it really matter who built the pyramids of Egypt? Or when they were built? Does it matter that there are so many confusing and conflicting claims by the proponents of the many religions? So who, or what, is "god"? Is it Jehovah, Allah, Krishna, or Enlil? Or perchance it is a fiction. And what does it matter or avail if we understand the true origins of man or not? If we cannot correctly understand who and what mankind is, how can we ever know and understand what angels, demons, gods, God, or aliens are? Is it that we are the aliens and this was not our earth?
