Long,long ago our ancient ancestors celebrated the Great Goddess as the creator of All There Is. In Goddess-worshippiing cultures, all females received respect because all women were associated with Her awesome power. The Godess in Every Girl shows you how to make direct contact with your own inner Goddess energy-an energy that allows you to know what you want and to go after it; celebrate your physical body for its many gifts; access your personal reserves of creativity; and take pride and joy in being female.To connect wit the wisdom and power of the Goddess, you only need to slow down, observe the rhythyms of the natural world, honor your needs, and reflect on your own experience. To help you take the first steps, M.J. Abadie offers mediatations for inviting silence into your life and visualizing a haven of inner solitude; exercises for exploring your physical body and taking an honest look at your sexuality; new ways to view your female family history; and tips for starting and keeping a Goddess journal.

Though the Great Goddess is one universal being, you might find it easier to connect to Her through individual goddesses who express her varied aspects. Artemis, Lady of the Beasts, represents all that is wild and free; Bast, the Egyptian cat goddess, celebrates creativity;Oshun is an Afro-Cuban goddess of love and compassion. Astriology tables for the Sun, Moon, Venus, and Mars let you identify the goddess guides who resonate best with your personality. No matter where you begin, when you journey inward you will find the Goddess, ancient source of female power, and She will empower you to become the person you ost want to be.
