SOPHIA: Goddess of Wisdom, Bride
of God by Caitlin Matthews This book takes the
reader on a journey from pre-Christian spirituality to the present
day, seeking out the presence of the Goddess--the divine feminine
power of wisdom.
The Hebrew Goddess by Raphael
Patai "The Hebrew Goddess" demonstrates that the Jewish
religion, far from being pure monotheism, contained from earliest
times strong polytheistic elements, chief of which was the cult
of the mother goddess. Lucidly written and richly illustrated, this
third edition contains new chapters of the Shekhina. Read
review.
Sophia's Web Understanding
the Unity, and Diversity of Religion, Science, and Ourselves
by Burl B. Hall One of several books by one of
our own Ministers ordained by the Esoteric Theological Seminary.
The universe is akin to a multi-dimensional cube. Each point
in this cube mirrors every other point. This is a book where science,
Christianity, Judaism, Atheism, Buddhism, Hinduism, and Native Spirituality
become various faces of one Divinity. "Sophia (Wisdom) is multi-faced,"
the Bible's Book of Wisdom (Hagia Sophia) says. There is unity in
diversity and diversity in unity.
The Goddess in the Gospels: Reclaiming
the Sacred Feminine by Margaret Starbird The author shares
the story behind the story of 'The Woman with the Alabaster Jar'.
In many ways, the personal spiritual journey Starbird experienced
and shares with the reader in GODDESS is a more compelling tale
than the one she eventually wrote about the Magdalene. GODDESS has
much in common with 'The Dance of the Dissident Daughter' by Sue
Monk Kidd. (Kidd acknowledges Starbird's influence in her book).
GODDESS also nicely complements HOLY BLOOD HOLY GRAIL.
The Feminine Face of Christianity by Margaret Starbird. Starbird notes the early
pattern of gender equality in the early Christian community, noting
the "sister-wives" who accompanied male disciples on their missionary
journeys, forging a new understanding of the "sacred marriage" at
the heart of the Christian Gospels. She points out that fundamental
Christian values such as compassion, reconciliation, and the healing
of crippled bodies and broken hearts are all strongly feminine in
nature. |

spiritual introduction to Gnostic Christianity helps beginners down
the Gnostic path to esoteric insights and wisdom.
The Dance of the Dissident Daughter:
A Woman's Journey from Christian Tradition to the Sacred Feminine
by Sue Monk Kidd What happens when the wife of a Southern
Baptist minister, a loyal adherent to his religious tradition, suddenly
discovers an alternative religious tradition that speaks more strongly
to her spiritual longings? Kidd (When the Heart Waits, HarperSanFrancisco,
1991) recounts her own journey of anger, fear, and joy from her
traditional Baptist upbringing to her new discovery of the power
of nontraditional feminine religious experiences. Along her journey,
Kidd encounters some of the most powerful feminist religious voices
of her times, from Phyllis Trible to Carol Christ, and records these
voices as guideposts on her journey. A graceful account of awakening
and transformation.
The Myth of the Goddess: Evolution
of an Image by Anne Baring and Jules Cashford In
this scholarly study the authors draw upon poetry and mythology,
art and literature, archaeology and psychology to show how the myth
of the goddess has been lost from our formal Judaeo-Christian images
of the divine. The authors explain what happened to the goddess,
when and how she was excluded from Western culture, and the implications
of this loss.
Sarah the Priestess: The First
Matriarch of Genesis by Savina J. Teubal. Amber Satterwhite,
also known as Oiled Lamp, one of our Mystery School Initiates comments:
Probably the most illuminating book ever published on the story
of Sarah, Abraham, and the genesis of the Jewish nation. Read it,
or continue to misread Genesis.
Ancient Sisterhood: The Lost Traditions
of Hagar and Sarah by Savina J. Teubal In this
scholarly feminist study of the Genesis stories of Sarah and Hagar,
Teubal explores the matriarchal tradition in the Bible, which may
have been covered over by succeeding patriarchal traditions. Sarah
and Hagar are given an identity other than just being sleeping partners
of Abraham. She also explores what the female led religious traditions
were.
Return of the Great Goddess
by Burleigh Muten From Sappho to Judy Chicago, from
the late Egyptian era to Audrey Flack, this anthology of fine art
reproductions and literary excerpts proclaims the strength and majesty
of the feminine experience. The images and messages, based on the
award-winning Return of the Goddess Engagement Calendars, remind
women of their spiritual heritage, their innate wisdom, the integrity
of the female body and its rites of passage, and the growing global
community of women who celebrate the return of the feminine deity.

their spiritually transforming power for contemporary women.
The Once and Future Goddess: A
Sweeping Visual Chronicle of the Sacred Female and Her Reemergence

illustrated and far-reaching history. Elinor Gadon vividly weaves
words and images to demonstrate the powerful connections between
ancient and contemporary art, between the Goddess of the Ice Age
and the Goddess of today.
The White Goddess : A Historical
Grammar of Poetic Myth by Robert Graves Perhaps
the finest of Robert Graves's works on the psychological and mythological
sources of poetry. In this tapestry of poetic and religious scholarship,
Graves explores the stories behind the earliest of European deitiesthe
White Goddess of Birth, Love, and Deathwho was worshipped
under countless titles. He also uncovers the obscure and mysterious
power of "pure poetry" and its peculiar and mythic language.
The Biblical Ciphers Unsealed:
A Revival of the Hebrew Goddess by Dale N. Robertson
It has long been believed that the Bible contains secrets
that were encoded into it by its authors. According to the Kabbalists,
this was to prevent the uninitiated from unleashing its magical
powers. The author explains why the ciphers were "veiled," and from
whom. Unlike anything that has so far been derived from the biblical
scriptures, the ciphers read in whole sentences whose meanings are
sequential from one sentence to the next. Each cipher is a "book
of wisdom," in the original sense of the Hebrew Hokmah ("wisdom"
or "shrewdness"), in that they are concerned with practical matters,
such as the conduct of business and politics. Each is a "book of
power," more in a Machiavellian than a Kabbalistic sense, as they
often read like instruction manuals in the ancient art of espionage.
They represent a window, closed for more than two millennia, which
now is open.

Mary Magdalene, Bride in Exile by

of New Age patina, yet her book is more focused and organized. Starbird
thinks that the Magdalene and Mary of Bethany were one; other writers
think Mary was poor; Starbird styles her as rich. |

new book, Pagels (The Gnostic Gospels) ranges panoramically over
the history of early Christianity, demonstrating the religion's
initial tremendous diversity and its narrowing to include only certain
texts supporting certain beliefs. At the center of her book is the
conflict between the gospels of John and Thomas. Reading these gospels
closely, she shows that Thomas offered readers a message of spiritual
enlightenment. Rather than promoting Jesus as the only light of
the world, Thomas taught individuals that "there is a light within
each person, and it lights up the whole universe.

Holy Bible: From Ancient eastern
Text by George M. Lamsa (Aramaic, the language
Jesus spoke)
Jesus, The Evidence by
Ian Wilson Wilson uses Scriptures, noncanonical writings,
and research from a variety of disciplines to penetrate pious mythology
and historical distortions. To committed Christians, this book offers
a fascinating new perspective on their beliefs. To the skeptic,
it provides a convincing explanation of why the beliefs centered
on this one man have proven so powerful and pervasive.
The Gnostic Gospels by Elaine
Pagels. Gnosticism's Christian form grew to prominence
in the 2nd century A.D. Ultimately denounced as heretical by the
early church, Gnosticism proposed a revealed knowledge of God ("gnosis"
meaning "knowledge" in Greek), held as a secret tradition of the
apostles. In The Gnostic Gospels, author Elaine Pagels suggests
that Christianity could have developed quite differently if Gnostic
texts had become part of the Christian canon. Without a doubt: Gnosticism
celebrates God as both Mother and Father, shows a very human Jesus's
relationship to Mary Magdalene, suggests the Resurrection is better
understood symbolically, and speaks to self-knowledge as the route
to union with God.

14 Steps to Awaken the Sacred Feminine: Women in the Circle of Mary Magdalene by Joan Norton and Margaret Starbird
Women’s circles have been called a “revolutionary-evolutionary movement hidden in plain sight” by Jean Shinoda Bolen and have been hailed as capable of affecting global change. Magdalene Circles are groups of women who focus their shared energies on the wisdom of Mary Magdalene to gain insight into the role of the sacred feminine in their own lives and to help them advance on their spiritual paths.
This book offers 14 lessons to help understand the wisdom offered by Mary Magdalene’s story and mythos. Among the lessons are prophecies of the bride, why we need the bride, Magdalene’s archetypal pattern of descent, and how modern women carry the Grail. Well-suited for the individual reader as well as a group, each lesson includes an introduction, guided meditation, questions for journaling, and an essay by Margaret Starbird as well as suggestions for group sharing. Placing Mary Magdalene within the pattern of “cyclic renewal” of earth-based religions, this book offers the chance to incorporate the sacred feminine wisdom of Mary Magdalene into everyday life for Christians and spiritual feminists alike.
The Holy Book of Mary Magdalene: The Path of the Grail Steward, by Jennifer Reif
The Woman with the Alabaster Jar; Mary
Magdalene and the Holy Grail by Margaret Starbird This
book is a courageous exploration of an extremely delicate question.
Mary Magdalen is called a penitent prostitute by the Roman Catholic
Church. The original story of the anointing of Jesus at Bethany
by the woman with the alabaster jar may have been misinterpreted
by the author of Luke's Gospel since the anointing was similar to
the familiar ritual practice of a sacred priestess or temple "prostitute"
in the Goddess cults of the Roman Empire. Mrs. Starbird does
an excellent job of researching European history, heraldry, the
rituals of Freemasonry, medieval art, symbolism, psychology, mythology,
religion and the Hebrew and Christian Scriptures to discover that
the meaning of the Holy Grail could be the lost bride of Jesus and
the female child she carried within her. |

Magdalene's Lost Legacy: Symbolic
Numbers and the Sacred Union in Christianity by Margaret Starbird.
Author Margaret Starbird decodes the symbolic numbers embedded
in the original Greek phrases of the New Testament-revealing the
powerful presence of the feminine divine. The New Testament contains
wide use of gematria, a literary device that allows the sums of
certain phrases to produce sacred numbers. Exploring the hidden
meanings behind these numbers, Starbird reveals that the union between
Jesus and his bride, Mary Magdalene, formed a sacred partnership
that was the cornerstone of the earliest Christian community.
