Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dark, earthy, and immensely powerful, the Black Goddess has been a key force in world history, manifesting in images as diverse as the Indian goddess Kali and the Black Madonnas of medieval Europe. She embodies the energy of chaos and creativity, creation and destruction, death and rebirth. Images of Her, however, have been conspicuously missing in the Western world for centuries—until now, when awareness of the Goddess is re-arising in many spheres, from the women's movement to traditional religion, from the new discoveries of quantum physics to the dreams of ordinary men and women. Why now particularly? The answer provided by Marion Woodman and Elinor Dickson is bold and thrilling: the reemergence of the Divine Feminine in our time indicates our readiness to move to an entirely new level of consciousness. The reemerging Goddess calls for a shattering of rigid categories, a willingness to hold opposition. She calls us to marry reason and order to creativity, and to embrace the chaos that can ultimately lead to wisdom and transformation on personal and global levels.

Download or read book Dancing in the Flames written by Elinor Dickson and published by . This book was released on 1997-06-30 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dark, earthy and mysterious, the Black Goddess was once a powerful presence throughout the world, manifesting in figures such as the Indian goddess Kali and the Black Madonna of Europe, as well as in Native American teachings. She represents the feminine as powerful, self-reliant, creative and deeply connected with the cycles of nature. However, images of her have been conspicuously absent in the western world for centuries. In parallel, western women have been absent from areas of influence and power in many public positions and institutions, among them the legal profession, the church, the academic world and the political arena. In recent decades, and increasingly in the 1990s, contemporary men and women have begun to rediscover these strong aspects of the feminine. The qualities associated with the Black Goddess are beginning to reappear, directing is to reassess the way we relate to the environment and the way in which we relate to each other and to our inner worlds. Written by leading analyst and international lecturer, Marion Woodman, with psychologist Elinor Dickson, 'Dancing in the Flames' is an outstanding survey of the shift in consciousness that is taking place world-wid
Download or read book Ready for a Brand New Beat written by Mark Kurlansky and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2014-07-01 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can a song change a nation? In 1964, Marvin Gaye, record producer William “Mickey” Stevenson, and Motown songwriter Ivy Jo Hunter wrote “Dancing in the Street.” The song was recorded at Motown’s Hitsville USA Studio by Martha and the Vandellas, with lead singer Martha Reeves arranging her own vocals. Released on July 31, the song was supposed to be an upbeat dance recording—a precursor to disco, and a song about the joyousness of dance. But events overtook it, and the song became one of the icons of American pop culture. The Beatles had landed in the U.S. in early 1964. By the summer, the sixties were in full swing. The summer of 1964 was the Mississippi Freedom Summer, the Berkeley Free Speech Movement, the beginning of the Vietnam War, the passage of the Civil Rights Act, and the lead-up to a dramatic election. As the country grew more radicalized in those few months, “Dancing in the Street” gained currency as an activist anthem. The song took on new meanings, multiple meanings, for many different groups that were all changing as the country changed. Told by the writer who is legendary for finding the big story in unlikely places, Ready for a Brand New Beat chronicles that extraordinary summer of 1964 and showcases the momentous role that a simple song about dancing played in history.
