The Goddess

Circle Round

Circle Round: Raising Children In the Goddess Tradition
Starhawk, Diane Baker, Anne Hill
New ways to honour a sense of togetherness through celebrations that honour the sacredness of life and our Mother Earth. Full of stories, songs, rituals, crafts, and cooking projects. A book for every member of the family. $22.95.



The Spiral Dance
Starhawk
A rebirth of the ancient religion of the great goddess -- rituals, invocation, exercises and magic. The influential masterwork that launched the American Goddess movement is even more popular and relevant than ever -- a bestselling spiritual classic. This brilliant overview of the growth, suppression, and modern-day remergence of Wicca as a goddess-worshipping religion has left an indelible mark on the feminist spiritual consciousness. In this beautiful 20th-anniversary edition, Starhawk now reveals the ways in which the practice of ritual and Goddess religion have, in the face of a changing world, developed over the last 20 years -- and the ways in which these changes have influenced and enhanced her original ideas. This important spiritual guidebook provides both the tools of ancient practice and the means to adapt them to our lives today -- for, according to Starhawk, "a living tradition is not static or fixed; it changes and responds to changing needs and changing times." $25.00.



The Alphabet Versus the Goddess:
The Conflict Between Word and Image

Leonard Shlain
In The Alphabet Versus the Goddess, Leonard Shlain proposes that the rise of alphabetic literacy sparked a reconfiguration of the human brain, and brought about profound changes in history, religion and gender relations. He goes on to describe a colossal paradigm shift (what he calls the iconic revolution) which began in the nineteenth century with the reemergence of the image with the development of photography, television, video, computers, advertising, and graphics -- a shift in dominance from the left hemisphere of the brain to the right. Image information has been gradually superseding print information, he argues, and with the resulting social revolution women have benefitted as society shifts to embrace feminine values. I hope he's right. Paperback. $20.99.



Her Words:
An Anthology of Poetry about the Great Goddess

Edited by Burleigh Muten
140 poems spanning the ages, everything from hymns to the goddess Inanna through biblical verses about Sophia and the works of sixth century poet Sappho to twentieth century authors. $27.50.



The Goddess CompanionThe Goddess Companion:
Daily Meditations on the Feminine Spirit

Patricia Monaghan
Engage you feminine spirit each day of the year...here are hundreds of authentic goddess prayers, invocations, chants and songs -- one for each day of the year. They come from dozens of sources, ranging from the great classical European authors Ovid and Horace to the marvelously passionate Hindu poets Ramprasad and Ramakrishna to the anonymous gifted poets who first composed the folksongs of Lithuania, West Africa and Alaska. In fresh, contemporary language that maintains the spirit of the originals, these prayers can be used for personal meditation, for private or public ritual, or for your own creative inspiration. They capture the depth of feeling, the philosophical complexity, and the ecological awareness of goddess cultures the world over.



The Bond Between Women
China Galland
Galland reveals the hidden current that runs through the world's wisdom traditions -- a dark, positive, feminine energy represented by such striking symbolic figures as the Tibetan Guddhist Tara, the Black Madonna of Catholicism, and the Hindu Kali. Weaving strands of her own personal story throughout, Gallands visits and reports on the actions of women across the globe who represent this energy of the firece feminine. 1998's number one seller at WonderWorks. Now in paperback. $20.00.
