Description
Summary:This feminist classic (first published in 1982) presents a chorus of voices exploring their authentic spirituality. The essays are active rather than reactive, revolutionary rather than reformist, and express a broad political awareness. Rather than codifying a religion exclusively for women, the authors address a range of contemporary issues that are informed by spirituality, our attitude toward life on Earth.<br> <br> Part One: Discovering a History of Power<br> * What the Goddess Means to Women<br> * Mythic Heras as Models of Strength and Wisdom<br> <br> Part Two: Manifesting Personal Power<br> * Consciousness/Energy/Action<br> * Self-Images of Strength and Wholeness<br> <br> Part Three: Transforming the Political<br> * The Unity of Politics and Spirituality<br> * Applications of Spirituality as a Political Force
