Theresa M. DiPasquale’s study of John Donne, Aemilia Lanyer, and John Milton demonstrates how each of these seventeenth century English poets revised, reformed, and renewed the Judeo-Christian tradition of the sacred feminine. The central figures of this tradition—divine Wisdom, created Wisdom, the Bride, the Blessed Virgin Mary, and Ecclesia—are essential to the works of Donne, Lanyer, and Milton. All three poets are deeply invested in the ancient, scripturally authorized belief that the relationship between God and humankind is gendered: God is father, bridegroom, king; the human soul and the church as corporate entity are daughter, bride, and consort. This important text not only casts new light on these poets and on the history of Christian doctrine and belief, but also makes enormous contributions to our understanding of the feminine more broadly. It will be of interest to scholars who study the Literary Studies, religion, and culture of early modern England, to feminist theologians, and to any reader grappling seriously with gender issues in Christian theology and spirituality.

The Sacred Feminine cuts across several areas and knits them together: Alchemy, Gnosticism, Jesus and Mary Magdalene, John the Baptist, the Templars and their treasure. This book is NOT a repeat of The DaVinci Code --it goes beyond it with facts and connects the dots. While it profiles many major world goddesses, it goes into depth with Mary Magdalene -- not a penitent prostitute and the Church finally agreed in 1969. She was an Apostle to the apostles, from a rich Egyptian family, and she had been a Temple Priestess, hierodulai practicing hieros gamos... she anointed Jesus and knew much of what he knew, including possessing some of his anointing: She stood before Caesar Tiberius and to make a point with him, she turned a white egg to red. Her Gospel of Mary is examined (Ch. 11) and her teaching. The last 2 chapters examine how we can connect with the Divine Feminine/Masculine and achieve a higher awareness. The book could have been called Spiritual Alchemy. The Templars did find treasure and genealogies under the Temple Mount (and the head/skull of John the Baptist) and took it back to France, and some treasure went to Rosslyn, and some went to the New World -- Quebec as a matter of fact... forget Oak Island (TV show), the Templars stashed it elsewhere. They were trying to set up a new kingdom of Saguenay in Canada but failed. Spiritual Alchemy is what the Templars, Gnostics, Mary Magdalene, John the Baptist and the Cathars were after, and it wasn't just to turn lead into gold -- although some alchemists DID do that and it was documented before the King of England. The theme of the book is that there needs to be a return to the Divine Feminine and the Yang Church needs to become the Yin-Yang (balanced)Church if it is to survive. Women and their feminine balance, nurturing, compassion and intuition are sorely needed in today's world as well as the church such that Modern Man (and woman) can better grow spiritually and leave mechanistic, rote religion to the 3rd world tribes. The book also examines Black Madonnas, Leonardo Da Vinci's paintings with their unique symbolism, the Dome of the Rock and what it hides, who the Beloved Disciple of Jesus really was, why Snake Oil IS medically of value, two new and authentic gospel fragments, the Mfkzt [sic] powder discovered in Egypt, and the recent discovery of writing on the Shroud of Turin -- which is authentic: it IS Jesus' shroud. New looks at Ascension, Karma, Reincarnation and Scripts are looked at thru the eyes of Rudolf Steiner, St Germain and the Great White Brotherhood (aka Order of Melchizedek).

"The scholarship in this book is superior, revealing a depth of insight and a scope of knowledge possible only from a scholar who has lived with the concerns of feminist theology for decades. Ruether is a gifted storyteller, and lucidly translates complex ideas and debates. This work is of the highest importance, and Ruether asks the right questions at the right time. The text is groundbreaking."—Nancy Pineda-Madrid, Saint Mary's College of California "Ruether has provided a valuable introduction to an important feminist topic: what can we know about sacred female imagery in Western culture? She guides us through contemporary feminist scholarship, providing engaging narrative, and venturing her own interpretations. Ruether calls for feminists to move beyond divisions created by our different interpretations of prehistory and work together towards our common project of a more peaceful, just, and ecological world."—Carol Hepokoski, Meadville Lombard Theological School

In an era that has reclaimed many aspects of the feminine, Margaret Starbird’s The Woman with the Alabaster Jar stands out as a courageous exploration of the scorned feminine in the Western religious tradition. But espousing the marriage between Jesus and Mary Magdalene created a personal crisis for this Catholic scholar. In The Goddess in the Gospels the author tells how she was guided in her ever-deepening study of the New Testament and the gematria--number coding of the Greek alphabet--by an incredible series of synchronicities that mirror the inner and outer worlds and which reveal the Sacred Marriage of male and female--the hieros gamous--leading to her own personal redemption.

“A fascinating ‘herstory’ of the Divine Feminine, rich in heart, depth and wisdom . . . an empowering message of hope and inspiration.” —Katherine Woodward Thomas, New York Times–bestselling author At the dawn of religion, God was a Woman. The Divine Feminine is known by innumerable names and symbol-rich manifestations across the world’s cultures. Throughout the ages the Goddess has been honored and worshiped as the Virgin Mary, Isis, Inanna, Asherah, Diana, Kuan Yin, Kali, Oshun, Athena, Pele, Sarasvati, Demeter, and White Buffalo Calf Woman, to mention just a few. Goddess Power takes you on a fascinating and, at times, surprising journey into the enduring essence of the Divine Feminine. Inside this book you will learn: • How the Goddess path offers an empowering message and inspiration • The importance of re-establishing a healthy balance and integration of both the “masculine” and the “feminine” archetypes • That the notion of God as archetypal “Sky-Father” is fairly recent in Western culture • Why the wisdom of the Goddess/Sacred Feminine has been ignored, distorted, and oppressed for centuries • How archetypes, mythic narratives, and qualities of Goddesses are alive within you and how they reveal intimate truths about yourself and others • How Goddesses can serve as empowering guides in your personal and professional life • Why especially black Goddesses/dark-skinned Mothers (e.g., Kali or Black Madonna) are a powerful symbol and catalyst for change in our times, both individually and collectively • And much, much more! “An empowering message and inspiration that can be drawn from the Goddess so humanity might evolve toward higher awareness.” —Karen Tate, author of Walking an Ancient Path and Goddess 2.0
