A unique woman oriented source of wisdom and archeaology,
By A Customer
This review is from: Amulets of the Goddess: Oracle of Ancient Wisdom/Contains Book and a Set of 27 Amulets (Paperback)
For those of us outside the judeo-christian tradition, who resonate to ancient drum beats, this set of book and "amulets" is a unique and delightful way to connect with the sacred feminine. I use is often to refocus, overcome inner obstacles, and dig myself out of old ruts. Based on actual archeological goddess artifacts, the symbolism of the amulets is explained from both a historical standpoint and an interpretive one. Recommended for women (and men) open to this path of the spiritual journey and wanting an interactive experience.

Wonderful!,
By Ellie (NC) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Amulets of the Goddess: Oracle of Ancient Wisdom/Contains Book and a Set of 27 Amulets (Paperback)
This set is worth the price for the book alone. It is easily one of the best Goddess books I've seen, containing much information about the history of the Goddess as well as valuable practical information that can easily be applied to daily life. The stones are great to use during meditation as they give you something physical to focus on, and work very well for divination also. I just love this set!

This review is from: Amulets of the Goddess: Oracle of Ancient Wisdom/Contains Book and a Set of 27 Amulets (Paperback)
You get a set of round amulets of various goddesses in animal, symbol and person forms, and you get a wonderful book that provides background on the goddess with some hints on how to use & interpret the amulets as divination tools.I have found the amulets & book invaluable as a "thought-provoker" tool when I'm stuck. Pick one from the bag at random and see what you get! The amulets feel very good, like they are made of clay (I think they're really made of some kind of plastic) and the depiction of the goddesses is very primal. The book is well researched. Well worth the money.

Excellent-Divination and Goddess mythology in one package,
By A Customer
This review is from: Amulets of the Goddess: Oracle of Ancient Wisdom/Contains Book and a Set of 27 Amulets (Paperback)
I was not disappointed in this book. I am a student of comparative mythology and have been doing research in Goddess mythology. I am also interested in divination through either stones or the tarot. This book has the background iniformation on the design of each amulet and the Goddesses that each stone represents. I'm buying more of these for my friends.

A Wonderful Touchstone,
By Rosemary L'Esprit (Denver, CO USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Amulets of the Goddess: Oracle of Ancient Wisdom/Contains Book and a Set of 27 Amulets (Paperback)
I've had this book for many years and enjoyed its wisdom. We painted our amulets which brought them even more to life. Recently, I used them every morning on a challenging journey to find a lost family member in a big city. The synchronicity of these little omens is amazing. On my trip, they served as support, guidance, a mirror, and validation for each day. They have become even more precious to me since my trip.

As strong as ever,

This review is from: Amulets of the Goddess: Oracle of Ancient Wisdom/Contains Book and a Set of 27 Amulets (Paperback)
I have been using the Amulets of the Goddess book and amulets for over a decade now. It is, for me, my preferred method of divining and gaining personal insight. I have found that the amulets tell me what I need to hear, not what I want to hear. And unlike tarot cards, I don't find myself becoming biased and trying to create meaning that isn't present. They have even been known to tell me to stop asking them questions those times when I am consulting them too much.
I use the amulets like a council of elders. As I stand before them, they come forward, drawn one at a time from the velvety bag, until 5 sit in a semi-circle around me. Imparting their wisdom.

Was very disappointed to received the book without the attached amulets as was advertised. They did send me a return mail receipt, hopefully the refund will be promptly forthcoming so I can purchase the book and amulets elsewhere.
