| Description: | Select Guide Rating As women seek to cultivate an understanding of their lives, a mythological model can provide a tool for self-discovery and realising individual potential. THE CIRCLE OF NINE presents nine archetypes that represent different, but equally important aspects of the feminine psyche. They portray both the life of the individual and the story of woman as a whole - a circle of ever-changing patterns that is a source of wisdom and inspiration. Three mothers, three queens and three ladies form the circle. The Great Mother nurtures her children with a love that embraces the cycle of life, the Queen of the Night transforms the raw energy of instinct into skill and vision and the Lady of the Hearth brings warmth and creativity into the home. By recognising these and the other six archetypes of the circle, women can hold up a mirror to their souls to gain new perspectives and unlock their potential. Drawing from history, her work with women''s groups and contemporary observations, Cherry Gilchrist presents a mythology that explores the psychology of the modern woman. Her analysis, interpretations and practical advice help to unravel the mystery of the divine feminine and provide a useful guide for daily life.First published in 1991, this new edition contains a new introduction and content related to the author''s life experience. |
