Karen Tate follows Sacred Places of Goddess: 108 Destinations with Walking an Ancient Path; Rebirthing Goddess on Planet Earth (O Books. $18.99. ISBN-10: 1846941113). This book continues the reader’s journey along a path of discovery to recognize the significance of the Goddess through history, archeology and mythology.
Tate
does not ask us to believe; she proves why we
should, which is refreshingly brilliant in a time
when religion and belief is often just faith
based, not looked at as an intelligent process.
The book contains five sections that represent the world around us – Earth, Fire, Water, Air and Spirit. Tate’s accessible writing style has us journeying along with her as she travels the world in search of the Divine Feminine.
Tate writes:
“She is not a fantasy. Evidence of her lives in museums, art, textiles, parables, myths, and archaeological sites, if we just seek her out.”
What makes this book most accessible to me, as a reader, is that I do not feel this book is written “for women” or just those who are part of the uprising movement to bring the Sacred Feminine back to prominence.
Walking an Ancient Path challenges the reader, male or female, to look around them, at their world and the elements within, and to seek out that that nurtures and grows.
The books authoritative research, recommended resources and reading list, combine to create a book that may very well hold some of the keys to that which we have long forgot, but desperately need.
