Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern Goddess: The Complete Series contains all three installments in the Modern Goddess series. Sprawling fantasies intertwined with mythology, adventure, romance, and philosophy, pick this boxset up today and soar free with an Odette C. Bell series. Trapped by Thor: Yes, she's a goddess. And, oh yes, he is most certainly a god. You can tell from the fact he marches around in glimmering armor, picking fights with titans and picking up divine broads. But she didn't sign up for this. Sea monsters, kidnappings, evil plots, and the end of the world? Are you kidding? She spends most nights reading the weather report and icing cupcakes. It’s all his fault. Trapped by Atlas: Jeanie’s just an ordinary goddess holding down an ordinary job in these hard economic times. But when an actual legend wades into her life one day, making way more mess than she can clean, she quickly learns there's something extra to her ordinary. It'll take her deep into the golden age of the gods, deep into universe-ending danger, and even deeper into a love that’s waited eons for her. Trapped by Apollo: The first casualty in every war is the truth. Which is terrible if you happen to be Truth herself. In the golden age of the gods, Veritas was one of the most celebrated deities. These days she sits on her couch, suffers from panic attacks, and shouts at the news. Modern times have not been kind to the truth, and now she’s more elusive than ever. But when mysterious cracks begin appearing through her temple, Veritas is forced to act. Someone is attacking the truth, and there’s only one person she can turn to. A god she'd rather push out a window than rely on. Her ex-husband, Apollo. Modern times killed their love, but if it kills the truth one last time, all will lose – none more so than Apollo.

Book excerpt: When Aphrodite learns her fianc has been involved in extracurricular activities for the duration of their relationship, she leaves him on the spot. Now faced with the issue of no home, no car, and no job, she willingly accepts the airline tickets and small donations from her friends and family. At first, this period of extensive travel ushers in exciting adventures and people. Gallivanting around the globe as a free agent with no responsibility or fianc to answer to is refreshing. However, after a year, the novelty wears off, and the jet-setter lifestyle begins to take its toll. She no longer takes joy in the irony of traveling on private jets and hobnobbing with the wealthy while she is flat broke. Inwardly, she yearns for the stability of home and someone to love but has no idea how to attain such things while stuck in such a fast and shallow environment. This is a true story of Aphrodites quest for freedom and happiness, what she does to survive in NYC, and how she calls forth the courage to completely reinvent herself that, in turn, reconnects her with a man whos been waiting for her since their first brief but indelible meeting years before; this is about how the power of love can transform. Ultimately, its Aphrodite refusal to accept a mediocre life that enables her to successfully pursue her dreams and refine her character. Its a story of how we all may attain the happy ending by simply listening to our inner voice and wisdom.

Download or read book The Witch s Qabalah written by Ellen Cannon Reed and published by Weiser Books. This book was released on 1997-09-01 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because the classic writings on the Qabala have been expressed primarily in the terminology of the Western Mystery Tradition or in terms of the ceremonial magician, its usefulness as a tool for the Craft has been overlooked. With this book, Ellen Cannon Reed -- a High Priestess of the Isian tradition -- brings the symbolism of the Qabala into a new light so pagans can see its value and use it to enhance the Great Work. Reed explains the Tree of Life -- the primary symbol used to represent the universal energies as "revealed" by the Qabala -- and how its spheres and paths correspond to elements in the pagan tradition. Teachers can use the Qabala to understand the growth of students and their problems, using the Vices and Virtues to recognize stages of growth. Reed also provides exercises, meditations, and encouragement to students who are studying without a teacher. She discusses the Qabala as it appears in everyday life, which spheres of the Tree of Life to use for specific workings, and details two rituals using the Tree: a Dedication to the Journey, and the Rite of mending Love. Reed's command of the material allows teachers and students alike to gain powerful insight into their own search for spirituality. First published in 1983 as Witches Qabala Book 1: The Goddess and the Tree, this revised and updated edition is enhanced with Reed's thirteen additional years of experience.

Download or read book The Goddess Myth in Contemporary Literature and Popular Culture written by Mary J. Magoulick and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2022-02-04 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Honorable Mention for the 2022 Elli Köngäs-Maranda Prize awarded by the Women's Section of the American Folklore Society Goddess characters are revered as feminist heroes in the popular media of many cultures. However, these goddess characters often prove to be less promising and more regressive than most people initially perceive. Goddesses in film, television, and fiction project worldviews and messages that reflect mostly patriarchal culture (included essentialized gender assumptions), in contrast to the feminist, empowering levels many fans and critics observe. Building on critiques of other skeptical scholars, this feminist, folkloristic approach deepens how our remythologizing of the ancient past reflects a contemporary worldview and rhetoric. Structures of contemporary goddess myths often fit typical extremes as either vilified, destructive, dark, and chaotic (typical in film or television); or romanticized, positive, even utopian (typical in women’s speculative fiction). This goddess spectrum persistently essentializes gender, stereotyping women as emotional, intuitive, sexual, motherly beings (good or bad), precluded from complex potential and fuller natures. Within apparent good-over-evil, pop-culture narrative frames, these goddesses all suffer significantly. However, a few recent intersectional writers, like N. K. Jemisin, break through these dark reflections of contemporary power dynamics to offer complex characters who evince “hopepunk.” They resist typical simplified, reductionist absolutes to offer messages that resonate with potential for today’s world. Mythic narratives featuring goddesses often do, but need not, serve merely as ideological mirrors of our culture’s still problematically reductionist approach to women and all humanity.

Book excerpt: "This comprehensive text, highly acclaimed as the premier sourcebook on goddesses, introduces students of religion to the various manifestations and complex nature of the goddess. Often a stranger to contemporary devotees of monotheistic religions, the goddess forces the recognition of female power, which can transform deeply held beliefs. The recent renewed interest in goddesses and the rise of feminist scholarship are addressed in this well-chosen collection of essays, written by an international group of scholars. The book elucidates the diverse religious cultures and periods of history in which goddesses have played an important role by providing examples of ancient and modern goddesses in Eastern and Western religious traditions, in major world and tribal religions, and in living religions and those no longer practiced."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Download or read book Modern Goddess written by J.E. Taylor and published by J.E. Taylor. This book was released on 2023-11-07 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fallen Valkyrie. A fae-wraith hybrid. Enemies become allies to survive a god’s wrath. Odin and Thor relentlessly hunt survivors of the destroyed realms on the only planet that still exists: Earth. Their dark tyranny enslaved this world, and anyone who challenges their rule dies a very public death. Reyfyre, the fae-wraith hybrid, has been hiding his entire life. When he found me, I was nothing but stretched-out skin over bones. Yet he offered me asylum, as long as I helped him kill Odin. How could I refuse? He nursed me back to health and rehabilitated my weakened muscle on the sparring field. Even with his demanding routine, I found peace in our hideaway in the northern territory. Then Odin discovered my empty cell and put a bounty on my head. And our mountain sanctuary, protected by Reyfyre’s magic, was too close to it to be coincidence. Our only hope now is to make it to New York City. However, that’s thousands of miles by foot through a tundra filled with hidden refugees, predators, and thieves. There’s no other option. If we die, no one will be left to stop the callous gods before they destroy the only realm left. But are we really strong enough to take down a god? If you like dark twists on Norse Mythology, you will love Modern Goddess.

In Part 2, Starr retells in mesmerizing narrative 7 goddess myths from ancient cultures around the world: Ancient Egypt, Africa, India, Tibet, Ancient Greece, Lakota, and the Judeo-Christian Bible. Each myth presents a quality that modern women can restore into their lives: Lilith (Power), Yemaya (Creativity), Tara (Stillness), Radha (Passion), Kassandra (Voice), White Buffalo Calf Woman (Wisdom), and Eve (Awakening). Accompanying each myth are anointing, bathing and lunar rituals, instructions for altars, invocations, meditations, and more. In Part 3, Starr shows women how to integrate the teachings of The Divine Feminine into everyday life, honoring the sacredness of their body and how to be in energetic, feminine balance. The book offers fresh, new ways for women to embrace their ancient and sacred traditions. It uplifts the spirit of any woman-from young womanhood to her elder, wise-woman years. It honors the Feminine spirit that all women can celebrate in themselves to rebalance the world. Readers will live more fulfilled lives and feel more confident, free and feminine...becoming the goddesses they were meant to be.
