Brief synopsis:
Originally published in 1992 this was a book written to awaken the wild woman in all of us by re-igniting the female fire that society, expectations, and ‘civilisation’ have gradually dampened. It can be a challenging read which needs your full attention and personal reflection if it’s to work its transformative magic but it’s worth the effort. Through a series of intercultural myths and stories designed to remind us as women of our true nature it’s a book which puts us back in touch with our instincts, our freedoms, our powers and our potential. It offers some very pertinent reminders of the things which matter: finding your tribe, finding yourself and living your truth as you move through the different seasons of life.
Key themes:
The wild woman archetype
The feminine psyche
Self-discovery
Growth and transformation
The interconnectedness of all living things
The power of nature
Read this one when: you need to be reminded of your inherent strength.
