Sinossi
Un saggio che esplora il significato dei \"periodi bui\" nella vita delle donne, che tradizionalmente intesi come un momento di paura e superstizione, morte e isolamento, rappresentano in realtà un tesoro da sfruttare e un\'occasione di crescita e ricchezza interiore. Indagando il mistero e la sapienza della fase oscura della Luna, l\'autrice postula un ritorno dei poteri della Dea nella coscienza attuale delle donne e offre spunti di rinascita e trasformazione per sfruttare i tempi bui con comprensione e coscienza. Combinando una prospettiva mitica, spirituale e psicologica, svela i poteri oscuri della Dea di cui le donne sono detentrici, affrancandoli dalle immagini oppressive a cui sono stati a lungo associati.

I found so much amazing information in this book and it came to me just at the right time. I especially found her discussion on menstruation and its connections with the dark goddess illuminating (pun intended).
In truth I would give this book a 3.5, but nostalgia has me rounding up on this one. This book was written in 1992, so it's dated when it comes to matters of gender and the dialogue around the metaphor of Maiden, Mother, Crone as ascribed to the phases of the moon. That said, it's is DENSE with inform Leggi tutto
4.5 Stars. A fantastic exploration of the most recent long-term feminine/masculine or matriarchy/patriarchy cycle with a particular emphasis and unique perspective on the demise of matriarchy and the rise of patriarchy some 5000 years ago. The books shines light on this topic in a way I have not bee Leggi tutto
Pros and Cons to this book. The mythology was enjoyable and some of the journal questions were really good. I love the idea of this book. Describing, exploring, and otherwise reclaiming what people consider dark periods of time. Reframing the dark moon to correspond to times of healing and growth. T Leggi tutto
I wanted to love this book, but I found it difficult to stay focused and read it. I’m not a fan of the author’s writing style. It seemed highly subjective, although presented as solid evidence. The concept and mythology were interesting. The content was often repetitive, and maybe stronger editing w Leggi tutto
Waw, wat duurde het lang vooraleer ik deze uit had! Het boek was erg langdradig en er werd ongelofelijk veel informatie herhaald. Hierdoor kreeg ik het gevoel dat dit boek minstens honderd pagina's dunner had mogen zijn... Desondanks heb ik wel wat opgestoken van wat ik heb gelezen. Helaas niet zoveel Leggi tutto
A lot of deep information about some of the goddesses linked to the moon. Stories of their lives throughout the years. A understanding in the female cycle and the magic it holds. It was a difficult book to get through as I am not good remmembering dates and historical names. Reading it to the end wa Leggi tutto
