5.0 out of 5 stars The Path of Sacred Sexuality, December 15, 2001

By 

Boudica (Ohio USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Greenfire: Making Love with the Goddess (Paperback)

Greenfire explores the relationship between ourselves and our Deities. As we express ourselves with one another, so too, we can express ourselves with our God and Goddess and we can have a personal, intimate relationship with our chosen deities.

This book refers to the deities as the Goddess and her Consort, the God. The Wheel of the Year is the cycle of the union between the Goddess and Her Consort, and is a celebration of this union. Ms. Knight explores the different sabbats according to the celtic traditions. She gives a correspondence between the chosen Goddess and Her Consort and the sabbat. She goes into their history and their relationship. She then has a guided meditation, centered on the Goddess and Her Consort, where you and your mate join in the union of the Goddess and Her Consort, becoming one with them and creating for you both a personal, spiritual relationship with the Goddess and Her Consort. This is sacred sexuality, and is tastefully done, well explained and the guided mediations are well developed.

Ms. Knight introduces and discusses in this book the path of sacred sexuality. This is a spiritual path of perfect love with the God and Goddess and is well defined in this book. The research on the Goddess and her Consort is well done and development of the guided mediations is excellent.

5.0 out of 5 stars Intriguing collection of Goddess erotica by Druid Priestess, June 14, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Greenfire: Making Love with the Goddess (Paperback)

High priestess Sirona Knight's new release is an intriguing collection of Goddess erotica based on the Celtic Gwyddonic Tradition. This Welsh Druidic philosophy sees the mating of female and male energy as the basis of life, leading toward oneness and empowerment through the constantly renewing cycles of the Sun and Moon and all things. By embracing the concept of merging with the Goddess and her consort while making love, new doors may be opened, lifting you beyond the limitations imposed by your mind to help actively shape your future. Sexual exploration, using ancient knowledge and ritual, provides a bridge between the manifest and the unmanifest. Greenfire cavorts provocatively through the Wheel of the Year, employing tasteful sensuous guided journeys. Each Celtic Great Day (Sabbat) has its own chapter and offers practical knowledge on magickal subjects such as working with crystals and gemstones, studying nature, the four elements, dragon energy, ley lines, and how to make pookas. Fundamentals of Gwyddonic Tradition are synthesized throughout this easy-to-read book. Greenfire illustrates powerful methods for patterning energy and provides an extensive reference section. This book is a valuable and exciting addition to your library...(Reviewed in Magical Blend magazine.)
