THE DA VINCI CODE tapped a deep fascination for the sacred feminine
hidden at the heart of Christianity. Best-selling author Tim Ward
digs deeper into this mystery, propelling the reader into the
pre-Christian Goddess religions of the Mediterranean. Ward
confronts tough questions * Are men threatened by the innate power
of the feminine? * Why do men abuse, rape, and dominate women?
Shouldnt loving relationships with the opposite sex be natural and
easy? * Did we all lose an essential part of ourselves when we
turned our back on the feminine divine? * How would opening to the
feminine face of God help men resolve their issues with women? *
What would it take for men to really let go of patriarchy and
genuinely accept women as equals?To answer these questions, Ward
decided to seek out the Goddess, with his own demons in tow. Over a
period of three years he travelled to the ruined temples and
shrines of the Goddess in the cradles of Western Civilization. At
each he encountered one aspect of the many faces of the Goddess. He
vividly recreates the experience of ancient believers the
Eleusinian Mysteries of Demeter, the sexual rites of the
priestesses of Aphrodite, and a human sacrifice on a mountaintop
shrine in Crete. And in Turkey he sits at the feet of the
many-breasted Artemis of Ephesus, whose rioting followers once
threatened to kill the Apostle Paul. Facing the Goddess unleashes
turbulent emotions for Ward. With frank honesty he describes the
traumas that erupt in his relationship with the woman he loves, who
accompanied him on many of his journeys.
