Edited by Diane Stein, this is a compilation of writings on ritual by the founders of the Goddess-centered spirituality movement. Starhawk writes about creating sacred space; Shekinah Mountainwater offers words and images of feminine power, describes the nine powers of magic, and offers advice about psychic self-defense. Other contributors include Z Budapest, Marion Weinstein, Jeannine Parvati Baker, Carol Christ, Uzuri Amini, Penina Adelman, Claudia L’Amoreaux and more. It is an invaluable tool for any woman seeking to more fully understand the liberating power of feminist ritual. Written as a companion book to Diane Stein’s Casting the Circle: A Women’s Book of Ritual, the Goddess Celebrates: An Anthology of Women’s Rituals brings together writings to help readers create their own rituals. This how-to book, edited by Stein, highlights rituals for birth, menopause, ealing child-hood sexual abuse, and much more. Includes photos and brief descriptions of all contributors.
