A Goddess version of the Jungian concept of the shadow self which examines how we can learn to understand ourselves more fully and weather the bad times by understanding the symbolism of the "dark" Goddesses in ancient lore. The book aims to maximize the potentiality for meaning, healing and creativity that naturally reside in the dark phase. Demetra George explores the ways that modern culture has denied the dark and thus has remained unaware of the potential for healing and renewal that exist in the dark phase of the cyclic process. By the author of "Asteroid Goddesses" and "Astrology for Yourself".
