Book Description

From the Author
The Prism Collective is a group of feminist educators and writers who create resources to make the world a safer and saner place for women. Because we are committed to social change through educational and spiritual development, we generate materials that we believe make feminist scholarship more accessible to young women. We create ways for all women to develop their spiritualities that begin with their own experiences. We work in a collaborative model which grows out of mutuality and respect for the gifts each of us brings to the community. We offer the prism as a symbol to remind us that we must look at what is familiar through a different perspective. By refocusing the lens through which we view the world, we see social change as possible. For years we have created rituals to celebrate women's lives. We hope that as you read and experience these rituals, you will claim your own spiritual power.
From the Back Cover
How can we honor significant moments in women's lives? In the course of a year, the moon goes through its ritual of change thirteen times: New Moon to Crescent to Full Moon. A pattern of change occurs in women's lives as well: Girl to Adult to Old Woman. Throughout time people have noted these changes with ritual celebrations. Our culture, however, has forgotten how to mark these developments and often minimizes their significance. Sisters of the Thirteen Moons remedies that lack with thirteen celebrations that imbue women's lives and their everyday experiences with a sense of their sacred meaning. Shared with groups or read as individual meditations, these rituals provide time of tears, laughter and profound understanding.
