Throughout time, people have turned to goddesses as symbols of what they seek — from abundance and healing to protection and passion. In a wide-ranging yet succinct daily reflection format, spiritual teacher Julie Loar presents the qualities and origins of an international array of these deities. She gracefully aligns the goddesses with the seasons of the year and the signs of the zodiac, and in an accessible, contemporary voice, guides readers to see reflections of their own power in these embodiments of the feminine and then put this power to practical use. Like the sherpas who worship Chomolunga while guiding climbers up Everest, readers may call on this Nepalese goddess as they struggle to attain a goal. Or on the Roman Fortuna — inspiration for gambling’s wheel of fortune — for good luck. Loar builds on the bestselling tradition of Jean Shinoda Bolen to help readers draw upon timeless wisdom, one day at a time.
