Thorsons Way of the Goddess

An introduction to goddess spirituality, showing you practical ways to discover the goddess within and bring her into your everyday life. With the growth of paganism and particularly in wicca, both women and men are moving away from male-authority god figures towards a more creative, less goal-orientated spirituality. This practical and in-depth guide includes: a brief history of goddess spirituality, its relevance, and where it's at today; what goddess spirituality actually means - the principles behind it; how to discover your goddess within; goddess rituals; goddess magic; glossary of goddesses for today with correspondences, symbols and associations (for example, invoke Hecate, Goddess of the Hearth, if you want to improve relationships at home). The goddesses come from around the globe - including Celtic, Greek, Roman, Egyptian, and African; celebrating the goddess in the cycle of the year; finding your own patron goddess; the green goddess and ecospirituality.
