An enthralling reminder that Deities are not distant and unapproachable.   They too often had to endure wounding and hardships, so can offer those who are faced with ordeals now a path with guidance and support.

Ness Bosch has brought together thirteen authors to share their knowledge and experience of working with Goddesses from several pantheons.   Each chapter demonstrates how the author works with Goddess energy, offering the reader examples, in modern life, for when they may choose to approach Her.  Each also provides suggestions, gleaned from their experience, of how best to build this relationship, with ideas for rituals, meditations, prayers, petitions, offerings, invocations and journeying.

For anyone navigating their way through the uncertainty of the modern world, this book can help bring us back to trusting ourselves.  It invites us to remember to gain support from our myths and stories, possibly just as those who came before us did.

Divine Wounds by Ness Bosch

Finding empowerment in working with ancient gods is not new. Sometimes this approach to the deity is born from a wound. The wound is a catalyst of consciousness, which opens windows to other realities and invisible worlds. As a Priestess Hierophant, author Ness Bosch sees women who seek to get closer to the divine, to the Goddess, seeking to restore their connection with the divinity, but also connecting with the possible wounds that those goddesses mirror. In a painful but beautiful and healing way, the divine wound connects with the human feminine wound, bringing closer Goddess and mortal.

This anthology is a collective testament to the survival and resilience of women. It is a reminder that every woman, no matter how deeply wounded, continues to walk hand in hand with others, and sometimes, with goddesses. The wounds we share with these divine figures are not just personal but also universal feminine wounds that have been carried for millennia.
