Purchase options and add-ons

One effect of rising interest in the Kabbalah is a renewed focus on the Shekhinah, Judaism's divine feminine principle. Written with warmth and clarity, On the Wings of Shekhinah interweaves historical views of this concept with thoughtful quotes and guided meditations. Rabbi Leah Novick offers healing strategies for both Jews and non-Jews disaffected by rigid gender roles. Awareness of the Shekhinah's energy within and around us helps bring hope to a planet afflicted by war, violence, and environmental abuse -- this book shows how to find and use that energy.

About the Author


Rabbi Leah Novick is a spiritual teacher whose teaching and research has been focused on the Divine Feminine, referred to as "Shekhinah" in Judaism, for the last two decades. She draws on traditional knowledge, combining it with guided visualization and meditation in her workshops and ceremonies. She has also written biographies of Jewish women saints, which have been integrated into a theatre piece performed with her advanced students. Rabbi Leah was ordained in 1987. Since that time she has provided rabbinical leadership to both alternative and conventional Jewish groups in California including 'Beit Shekhinah' in Berkeley, Temple Beth El in Salinas, and 'Shabbos in Carmel' on the Central Coast. She is also founder and spiritual adviser to Ruach Ha Aretz, a Jewish spiritual retreat group that serves the Western states. Leah is featured in the International Hadassah calendar of "Women Rabbis around the World." She has also been honored with the title 'Pathfinder' by the Aleph Alliance for Jewish Renewal for her pioneering work in bringing the feminine into contemporary Jewish liturgy and rituals. Prior to her re-immersion in Jewish spirituality she had a long and distinguished career in Public Policy and Academia. During the 1980's she taught at the U.C. Berkeley Graduate School of Public Policy. In the late 70's after serving as chief coordinator of the International Women's Year Commission, she was appointed ASSU guest professor at Stanford University. Leah moved to California in 1980 after ending a long marriage blessed with three grown children and five fabulous grand-children. Charmed by the West Coast (after several years in New York and Washington D.C.), she now resides in Carmel on the beautiful California central coast. She draws inspiration from the power of the natural environment and continues to travel and work for harmony, understanding, and peace between all people.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Treasure for the Mind and for the Soul
Reviewed in the United States on February 17, 2009

On the Wings of Shekinah is a remarkable book. It is an excellent source material for those interested in learning more about the place of the Divine Feminine with the Judaic Religion. But more than that, the author provides the reader with some of the most beautiful and inspiring self-mediatations that go along with the book. If the readers will take the time to follow these meditations, they may experience the Divine Feminine for themselves.

3.0 out of 5 stars The Aery Fairy Shekinah
Reviewed in the United States on April 17, 2016

Lightweight. Her 'Meditation 's aren't prayers,they are 'You are here,at the mikveh,in a wood with very good friends'. I was hoping for the earliest references to The Feminine Face of God,I grew up with the 'Bridal imagery' of the Sabbath. I was looking for historical prayers,and Shekinah ritual. This isn't it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Highly Recommended ~ Radiant Shekhinah
Reviewed in the United States on November 26, 2008
On the Wings of Shekhinah was a fun read ~ deep and poetic at the same time. Through this work, Reb Léah has gently yet convincingly brought me to a personal awareness of the Feminine Divine, both beyond and within. On the Wings of Shekhinah has helped to facilitate my journey through the road map of the sephirot and the pathways of history in preparation for the reemerging Shekhinah among us. She is a powerful presence, and this book has enabled me to recognize Her radiant energy in numerous forms. I could not put this down and am sure to refer often to the inspired words of Rabbi Léah Novick. Highly recommended!

4.0 out of 5 stars a very gentle introduction
Reviewed in the United States on October 31, 2019
Rabbi Leah Novick’s On the Wings of Shekhinah: Rediscovering Judaism's Divine Feminine is a very gentle introduction to Judaism’s premier symbol of God’s feminine side. The Shekinah, in her most advanced form, acts as a seemingly independent entity in Jewish mysticism (although we are probably in the realm of allegory here). She is the Queen, who yearns to be reunited with the King, God.

Allegory or not, there is no denying that the Shekinah injects a dose of the feminine into masculine Judaism. Rabbi’s Novick’s treatment is a soft treatment the Divine Feminine across the centuries.

1.0 out of 5 stars it's like the idea of Mother God gives women an excuse ...
Reviewed in the United States on March 18, 2018
Verified Purchase
Again, more feminism. The Divine Feminine (God as Mother) has no connection with sexist marxism. No wonder men say God is Father, it's like the idea of Mother God gives women an excuse to be abusive, man hating matriarchs. I'm tired of it. The Kabbalah, Zohar, Bible and even Hinduism teaches that while God is Mother (or is Mother AND/ or Father), we still need gender roles, not feminism.
