This feminist classic (first published in 1982) presents a chorus of voices exploring their authentic spirituality. The essays are active rather than reactive, revolutionary rather than reformist, and express a broad political awareness. Rather than codifying a religion exclusively for women, the authors address a range of contemporary issues that are informed by spirituality, our attitude toward life on Earth.

Part One: Discovering a History of Power
What the Goddess Means to Women
Mythic Heras as Models of Strength and Wisdom

Part Two: Manifesting Personal Power
Consciousness/Energy/Action
Self-Images of Strength and Wholeness

Part Three: Transforming the Political
The Unity of Politics and Spirituality
Applications of Spirituality as a Political Force
