"Honoring the potent times in which we are living, The Wild and Sacred Feminine Deck is an invocation of the sacred feminine. We all crave trustworthy sources of insight for clarity, confirmation, and guidance. The Wild and Sacred Feminine Deck, crafted from the collected feminine wisdom of millennia, intends to be that guide. Wherever you are on your journey as a woman, these fifty-two cards speak through universal symbols of the sacred feminine goddesses (Kuan Yin, Lakshmi, Artemis, etc.) and archetypes (Curandera, Bodhisattva, Mother, Queen) to amplify your innate knowing, invigorate your emergent potential, and reveal blind spots that may hamper your growth. Each card reflects one aspect of the sacred feminine, opening a portal of potential, a threshold to integrate what we have been and the "not-yet" we can become. The Wild and Sacred Feminine Deck helps women usher the ongoing conversation they have with their lives into a larger, more luminous context"--

Written for mothers seeking to fulfill their soul’s work while simultaneously raising future generations, Sacred Motherhood offers women on the path of motherhood a guide back to themselves. It will help you embrace the reality that this is your spiritual life—every moment of every day, whether you are at the grocery store, changing diapers, arguing with your partner, snuggling with your baby, or dyeing your teenager’s hair pink. Greet the moments when you fall down as awakening opportunities, every bit as holy and powerful as the moments you can drop in and bliss out. Spanning the sacred and the mundane, Sacred Motherhood is both a guide and a journal, enticing you to pause momentarily to reflect and write, and then return to your mothering tasks armed with a fresh perspective, renewed vision, practical tips, and creative ideas for enriching family life. For fifty-two weeks—a year of sacred motherhood—the chapters illuminate subjects that are likely to arise as the mothering journey unfolds, and present thoughtful prompts and helpful reminders relating to you, your soul, and your child.
