Goddess Alive!: Inviting Celtic & Norse Goddesses into Your Life

A wonderful invitation
Come and invite the energies of these goddesses into your life, and see what lessons they have to teach and share! Step into the legends of old, and envelop yourself in a unique experience. Feel the cold winter air against your skin in one meditation; feel the ancient sun warm your face in another. I was so sorry to see this book come to an end.Michelle Skye has authored a lovely compilation of ancient myths centering around these major Celtic and Norse goddesses. Through Ms. Skye's painstaking research, you will learn the story of each goddess, but this is much, much more than a history book. You will explore each goddess through wonderful guided meditations, interesting activities, ritual, and invocation. You will also explore each goddess' relationship to a holiday or moon phase, and discover what meaning she holds for you.At the beginning of the book is a helpful section called "Starting on Your Journey," which gives a solid foundation in grounding and centering, explains pathworking, and prepares you for the meditations. Ms. Skye has an easy, informal diction that brings alive each goddess and makes for a very uncomplicated, comfortable, and encouraging read. The wonderful illustrations by Kris Waldherr beautifully bring to life a face for each goddess.I believe you will love the opportunity to learn made available through this book. I especially just loved the meditations on Aine, Hella, and Rhiannon. I especially just loved this whole book.

A Good Book for Your Pagan Library
I've read two chapters so far. I felt an odd disconnect from one chapter to the next, because one revolved around the goddess and the other seemed to focus more on the men in the goddess's mythology. I have not tried one of the detailed guided meditations yet. I recommend this book because the historical information and the modern interpretation of the goddesses are very valuable. But don't use it as your only source material on any of the goddesses, whether you're a pagan or just doing research. It's difficult to find material on some of these goddesses, and it's an important book for that reason. The writing varies from strong to almost boring. I think the writer may be personally invested with some of the goddesses and not with the others.

This book has an easy to read style. The 8 sabbets of the year and the phases of the moon have each been given a different Goddess. The myths of each Goddess are accompanied with a guided meditation, invocation and activities.It is a book I refer back to time and time again as a starting point to my preparations.An excellent book for the person seeking to find their Goddess
