Description

Destiny Books, 1992 Book. New. Soft cover. These intriguing stories - some more than 3,000 years old - focus on the women of Celtic mythology, from formidable women warriors to the gentle women who guided others to spiritual wisdom. In Celtic myth, the mixture of wise spiritual teaching and dramatic imagery creates new, potent, and disturbing visions. This selection of eleven stories some more than 3,000 years old focuses on the women of ancient British mythology, from the formidable women warriors who trained heroes to fight and kill to the beautiful companions who led them to higher realms of feminine intuition and spiritual wisdom. Caldecott goes beyond a mere recounting of female strength, providing lucid personal commentary that illuminates the complete myth and the culture from which it springs. These powerful stories transmit a recognition of the mystery of being and an understanding of the powerful magic of inner transformation. .
