In this wide-ranging view of magic and ritual, Gareth Knight demonstrates the presence of the Goddess throughout Western esoteric traditions. From Greek myths and the Mysteries of Isis to the emergence of the cult of the Blessed Virgin and seventeenth-century Rosicrucian spiritual alchemy, he shows how the Goddess - the elemental consciousness of Earth - has revealed herself in different times and places. Honouring her many guises, Knight explores the powers of the Goddess as maiden, mother, initiator, protector, sorceress and faery queen. Guided meditations on each of these qualities lead the practitioner into direct contact with the potent healing energy of the Divine Feminine. The author also offers rituals, exercises and other practical tools for integrating the Western magical tradition with worship of the Goddess. He shows how we, and our planet, have suffered due to the repression of the feminine principle. For our own health, and that of our environment as well, we must recognise the power of the Goddess within to reconstitute and guide our existence. · Draws from two thousand years of source material to demonstrate the ongoing reality of the feminine power and its relevance for today · Includes rituals, exercises, and techniques for evoking the Goddess · Explains how the dynamics of the sacred or magic circle serve as a guide to living harmoniously ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED BY AQUARIUS as THE ROSE CROSS & THE GODDESS
