Dark, earthy and incredibly powerful, the Black Goddess has been a key force in world history, appearing in such diverse forms as the Indian goddess Kali and the Black Madonnas of medieval Europe. She embodies the energy of chaos and creativity, creation and destruction, death and rebirth. However, her images have been conspicuously absent from the Western world for centuries—until now, when awareness of the Goddess is re-emerging in many areas, from the women’s movement to traditional religion, from the new discoveries of quantum physics to the dreams of ordinary men and women. Why now? The answer given by Marion Woodman and Elinor Dixon is bold and exciting: the rebirth of the Divine Feminine in our time indicates our readiness to move to a whole new level of consciousness. The Resurgent Goddess calls for the destruction of rigid categories, the willingness to resist. She encourages us to combine reason and order with creativity and embrace the chaos that can ultimately lead to wisdom and transformation on a personal and global level.
