Book Description

The Triple Goddess is with every one of us each day of our lives. In our inner journeys toward spiritual evolution, each woman and man goes through the stages of Maiden (infant to puberty), Mother (adult and parent), and Crone (aging elder).

Maiden, Mother, Crone is a guide to the myths and interpretations of the Great Goddess archetype and her three faces-so that we may better understand and gracefully accept the cycle of birth and death.

3 out of 5 stars Good Start but more basic.......2006-12-29

There is alot of useful information, but it's mostly on the aspects of the Goddess. This is less of an "eploring deeper" book and more of a primer for actual worship. Great start for beginners though.

3 out of 5 stars Fun to read, but take with a grain of salt........2005-07-12

This book is quite informative in addressing many different Goddess stories and legends from many different cultures in a brief, fun-to-read format but the historical information the author provides seems rather vague and incomplete. It proves to be an entertaining indulgence, nonetheless. However, if you want to address the worship of the Goddess in a more practical and educational manner, I would suggest looking elsewhere. There is some good advice here for beginners and those who wish to use the book as a quick-reference guide or as a possible overview, but I wouldn't use this book for any in-depth studies of the craft. Also, the repetitive spelling errors can become quite annoying.

5 out of 5 stars The Goddess in all her aspects explained.......2003-07-02

Ms. Conway is one of my favorite authors and with this book she really hits home. She expains the three aspects of the triple Goddess in detail, complete with myths and lore. The untrue myth that the dark goddess is all about gloom and doom is completely shattered in the section on the Crone. The Goddess is to be respected in all her aspects and is essential to birth, death and rebirth. This book also contains meditations to meet with and understand all three of the Sacred Mother's faces. A definite keep in my library!

3 out of 5 stars A comprehensive collection of goddess myths.......2003-06-10

This book brings togeather all sorts of goddess myths and Conway has sectioned them into catagories. A great read for understanding the relationship of the goddesses in many diffrent patheons. However the guieded meditations in the back are a little diffrent. I would seggest reading other books on goddess worship before you choose this form of connection.

5 out of 5 stars A wonderful read........2002-02-08

This book is a wonderful intro to the mysteries of the Goddess, it gives very clear insight into seeing how She works in and which aspects apply to situations in our daily lives. This book makes one want to delve more deeply into Goddess lore and legend I highly recommend it.

Book Description

Meditations for New Mothers is a little book that should live on every motherís night table. It is a motherís group, the wisdom of the ages, and a really close friend all rolled into one. Moved to write it after the birth of her first son, Beth Wilson Saavedra addresses the full range of emotions, conflicts, anxieties, wonders, and plain old day-to-day issues that arise in early motherhood.

Meditations on Love. Meditations on Limits. Meditations on Laughter. Meditations for feeling stretched too thin, for postpartum depression, for needed relaxation ("When I take time to rest I am not wasting time, I am enjoying it"). Meditations on Priorities, Delusions of Adequacy, the Edge of the Abyss, and Serendipity ("All the energy I put into warding off lifeís alterations is energy that I could be using to unexpected surprises that await me each day").

For the ups and downs and unknowns of motherhood comes a balm and a bracer in the form of meditationsóa lifeline thrown from one mother to the next.

5 out of 5 stars Must Have!.......2007-06-15

After my second child's birth I was really stressed out with the jealousy of my older child, my husband's long work hours, and my post-partum depression. Beth's words of wisdom helped alleviate my guilt, especially when I felt like I was anything but an ideal mother. Her humor raised a smile and she tackled some topics that, unfortunately, mothers don't always talk about because we're afraid to admit that we don't love every aspect of motherhood (which, btw, is very natural).
Beth also encouraged me to take time out for myself and when with my children, to truly enjoy them. I still carry this book around with me....

5 out of 5 stars A must-have for new mothers!.......2007-05-07

As a new mother, I absolutely adored this book. The author shared all of the thoughts and feelings of the new mother, which were the same as I was having about my new role in such a beautiful and heartfelt way, which helped me feel less isolated.

This is now one of my favorite things to give to mothers-to-be at baby showers!

5 out of 5 stars great gift.......2007-02-22

I have 4 children...and I read parts of this book after each one. The "New" in the title didn't only mean first time mom to me...I enjoyed the book over and over.

5 out of 5 stars Read just a page a day.......2006-10-19

I received this wonderful book as a gift. I often only had the time and energy to read just one page before bed. It always comforted me. I always give this book to new moms.

5 out of 5 stars Just what I needed to hear, when I needed to hear it!.......2004-02-12

This book was wonderful when I was a first time mother of twins. It helped me keep it all in perspective. When I was most frazzled, it made me realize that whether their stages brought good or bad, babyhood is precious and temporary.

Deepen your love of Christ and His mother as your meditations on the Joyful, Luminous, Sorrowful, and Glorious mysteries reach a new level.

1 out of 5 stars Lousy Bare Essentials -- Disappointing.......2007-01-19

No idea why this little nothing of a book is earning such positive recommendations. (Well, I note that one five star review below is by one of the book's co-authors!) It is not really anything more than a one prayer, one page instruction book for the rosary, with the prayer on the right page, a small illustration on the facing page. Do you know the little blue "Pray the Rosary" books by Rev. Lelan, printed since the 1950s by the Catholic Book Co.? Exactly the same idea here, but in a little hardcover, with Medieval icons as the illustrations. Actually it's not even as good as those little give-aways, since they offer memorable little thoughts to help focus the prayer: "I desire forgiveness for my sins," "I desire the virtue of patience," etc. This book does offer brief scriptural readings to accompany each prayer, its true--but then so does a rosary pamphlet I picked up for 50 cents.

Sorry to be so grumpy about it; I was just expecting more. There's nothing wrong with this book per se. It just doesn't offer anything that you can't get elsewhere in free or nearly free Catholic publications.

Additional Gripe: Notice how glorious and grand the illustrations seem if you preview this book with the Search Inside feature. But this book is about 3" by 5", so the pictures are around 2" by 3", about the size of a wallet photograph.

5 out of 5 stars Eye-Opening Little Wonder.......2006-12-26

The best aid to prayer! Little prayer-helper that can be taken anywhere and which truly deepens the act and understanding of the Rosary. Love it! Just as I devoured "The How-To Book of the Mass" this one will get dogeared and tattered.

5 out of 5 stars A Rosary Resource Patterned on the Apostolic Letter.......2005-03-23

For someone looking to "make a difference" in our world so filled with unrest and need, responding to Pope John Paul II's call to embrace the Rosary is one affirmative step that can be taken immediately. As a resource for making contemplation of the Rosary a part of your life, authors Michael Dubruiel and Amy Welborn have compiled the book Praying the Rosary: With the Joyful, Luminous, Sorrowful, & Glorious Mysteries (Our Sunday Visitor, June 2003, hardcover, 64 pages).

Though compact in size, this book can and will have a tremendous impact upon your life if you choose to read and implement its suggested format. The book's introduction reiterates the Holy Father's call to this perfect form of Christian contemplation and points to the Blessed Virgin Mary as a role model for contemplating the true mystery of Jesus Christ, his life, death and resurrection. Bearing both the Nihil Obstat and the Imprimatur, Praying the Rosary incorporates all four sets of mysteries, including the new Luminous mysteries.

Welborn and Dubruiel follow the format suggested by Pope John Paul II in Rosarium Virginis Mariae including the announcement of the mystery, scriptural references, contemplative silence, the formal prayers of the Rosary (including a short prayer phrase following each Hail Mary related to the specific mystery), and a brief concluding prayer for each mystery. Newcomers to Rosary devotion will find the compendium of prayers at the completion of the book a helpful resource.

Complimenting the suggested format, stunning artwork graces the pages for each of the mysteries. Contemplation of these wonderful icons provided courtesy of St. Isaac of Syria Skete allows the user yet another point of interaction with the mysteries of the Rosary.

This book's compact size makes it the perfect tool for incorporating the Rosary into your daily devotional routine. The hardcover format is durable and will stand up to daily use. The book will easily slip into a purse, briefcase, day planner or coat pocket. Praying the Rosary has taken up permanent residence in my "home away from home", my vehicle, where my boys and I daily contemplate the mysteries of the Rosary in our own effort to better know and love Jesus Christ. We pray each day, joining our hearts and minds with countless millions around the globe, for peace in our own little corner of the world and beyond.

Book Description

This "Becoming the Goddess" audio product has been created in what is known as a "hypnotic guided visualization" format. This audio CD contains 2 programs. Program: 1 "Discovering the Goddess". Through the use of hypnotic induction you are gently guided into a trance like state wherein you can at once "feel" and "come to know" the Goddess Energy. Program 2: Take a mental journey through a dimension of sight and sound to another place in time. Gentle guidance into an altered state of consciousness allows the listener to "merge" with the Goddess energy, thereby "Becoming the Goddess". Effects will vary from person to person.

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Wow! It Works!.......2007-10-10

Alright, I know this review is LONG, but I have to say it all. I have had 2 Janet's CD's on my Amazon wish list for a long time, but couldn't justify the purchase. I mean, I have heard enough hypnosis CDs that have NOT been worth the money, and mostly downright disappointing. I didn't want this one to be the same. I finally took the plunge and ordered "Becoming the Goddess" and one other.

Can I just say I love her voice? Okay, I love her voice! Most hypnosis tapes drive me COMPLETELY INSANE with my random thoughts fighting themselves about, "forget the person's annoying voice, focus on what they're saying...oh what are they saying?...How much time have I wasted now....OKAY FOCUS!" But, with Janet's voice, she is so natural and yet soothing that I can just "go" with it, no effort. She's not trying to be calming and soothing, she just IS.

The first time I listened to "Becoming the Goddess," I was so surprised (read: jaw dropping amazement), because I "saw" everything in the meditation before she described them, and exactly as she described them (except for the color I was wearing). Only that one minor detail was different. That simply blew me away, because it was as if I REALLY was there, or was experiencing a past life that I truly had. In just a few sessions of the CD, it has already deepened my personal spiritual practice, and has allowed me to tap into a greater wisdom as I help others. I can't wait to see what happens as I continue to use the program.

Spiritually I don't relate to traditional patriarchal religion, and so her meditation connects me to the feminine divine in a way that I was missing, and looking for, on my own. If that describes you too, I'm pretty confident you'll like this one.

For those of you with a lot of mind chatter like me, I appreciate the LONG induction present on this CD, because it is long enough for me to let go of the chatter and concerns of the day (no small feat!).

The first hypnosis/guided meditation is a prep for the second hypnosis/guided meditation. The second one is really the "STAR" of the CD. It is already creating a new transformation and evolution in my growth. I look forward to my daily session of meditation now, and can't wait to see more changes in myself.

I hope Janet does another one of these CDs, but once the meditation leads me to the circle of stones, to just have quiet, and let me "travel" on my own for a while, and then bring me back. That way, it could be different "journey" every time and allow me to bring back my own messages and wisdom.

Okay, -"phew!"- Enough already! Just treat yourself to this CD and enjoy the transformation for yourself. You and those you touch can't help but be changed for the better! I mean, who couldn't use more love, wisdom, compassion, confidence, empowerment,patience, and being the living embodyment of the Divine? Count me in!

5 out of 5 stars WOW ! SOMETHING THAT WORKS & IS NOT CHEESY!.......2006-03-30

I cannot say enough in regards to this Hypnotic CD. For starters, her voice is calming and sounds "sane". Not all trippy or grossly persuasive. She interweaves the breathing techniques with reminders of focusing on the body in ways that deeply took me into another state. Meanwhile, the Goddess Meditation portion, definitly has a Wiccan/Earth based feel, but it really takes you in a different direction after that. To a more personal Goddess-merging. I really connected with a primal aspect of the Goddess I had not previously. Hearing the chanting in one portion ( where a few voices chant to Anu) made me think , " wow wouldn't it be nice if there were repetitive chant CDS available to draw particular Goddesses in". The feeling after using the CD Is very uplifting, I was ready to take on the world and felt a great compassion. I will use this one again and again, its very therapeutic!

5 out of 5 stars Excellent!.......2005-12-21

This CD, "Becoming the Goddess", by Janet Decker is a really powerful trance meditation that assists women with getting in touch with their inner Goddess archetype. It's amazing. The first meditation concentrates primarily on feeling the Great Mother archetype of the Goddess and that is a good introduction to the whole concept. But, the second meditation is absolutely amazing. It's like the Goddess, the Celtic Anu (achetypal representation of the maiden aspect - female power, independence, etc.), is channeled from on high. I've used this meditation for almost two years now and the psychological transformation is complete. Women need to have images of the Divine as female in order to understand the legitimacy of female power, beauty, and independence. Without that image firmly implanted in our minds, any outside changes are only temporary.

A set aside: Janet Decker's meditation is good to use in conjunction with Starhawk's "Way to the Well". You can obtain it from Serpentine Music online. Starhawk's "Way to the Well" is a trance chant meditation that assist a woman in gaining personal power from within by using the archetype of the Goddess Brigid. I believe that if a woman uses these meditations on a regular basis, she can achieve anything she wants.

5 out of 5 stars Becoming the Goddess by Janet I. Decker.......2004-02-17

I enjoy listening to guided imagery, and have quite a few tapes and CDs. This one is one of the best! A wonderful tape.

5 out of 5 stars Not just for Wiccans--Your Mother wants you to call Her!.......2003-02-11

Even thought I'm a longtime practicioner of Wicca, there are times when a frazzled Witch has trouble tuning in to "Mama" This CD comes in handy for quickly and reliably connecting with the Goddess, and is general enough for practicioners of any faith or view. I sometimes listen to it in a herbal bath for the ULTIMATE relaxation Womb experience after a freaky day. (Please, be safe w/electricity and make sure you're "propped up" in the bath)
I haven't yet tried this one on my husand (Pilot, science-minded skeptic & sometime guinea pig/but he DID marry a Witch!)but it should be fun!

I received this as a gift - what a gift! The passages are short, but very relevant to a new mom's emotions of joy, stress, etc. The book also addresses decisions (like going back to work)and changes in your marriage - which I found helpful. I am ordering a few copies to keep on hand for shower gifts.

After having my baby I began to read this book, which was a GREAT gift. My first thought was, WOW there is someone out there who has taken the time to write about how I am feeling. The author candidly covers various emotions that any postpartum mother would experience. During a time when I was feeling lots of emotions and uncertainty, this book soothed my soul a bit. Thanks Ms. Lehman for taking the time for new moms.

5 out of 5 stars Wonderful Book!.......2007-05-21

I received this book as a gift after the birth of my third child in 1986. It is just beautiful. I read this book after the births of my next seven children and am now ordering it for two dear friends who are about to be first time mothers. This book is truly a treasure one can enjoy again and again.

5 out of 5 stars Godly encouragement..........2005-09-27

This devotional was given to me 23 years ago, welcoming our first born. So pleased to be able to share a spiritual side of mothering to the women in my life...

5 out of 5 stars this book spans generations.......2005-07-24

When we were having our babies in the late '60's & early '70's, my friends and I gave this splendid book to each other. Then it went out of print. To my delight it reappeared in recent years. It now is making the rounds with my childrens' friends. Celebrating the wonder of being a new mother and the awe of this incredible little human entrusted to your care never goes out of date. This book is for all new moms (and do share it with the dads too!). Sharon L. Regan
P.S. There are also new books of meditations for the expectant mother and the adoptive mother by the same author.

5 out of 5 stars Wonderful.......2004-06-08

This wonderful book is a collection of thirty meditations for the new mother, written by Christian author and speaker Helen Good Brenneman. Starting with a special one for the first day, each one has a Bible passage, a short homily, a prayer, and an uplifting poem.

I bought this book sight unseen for my wife, and am very glad that I did. The author is widely known and respected in Mennonite circles, but this book is written in a non-denominational manner that will make it a wonderful gift for any Christian mother. My wife and I both love this book, and highly recommend it to you.

5 out of 5 stars Just Right!.......2003-02-21

I purchase a supply of these books evey so often to keep on hand for the new mothers in our church. A friend gave it to me when my son was born and I just loved it. The birth of a baby is such a wonderful, sensitive time and this touches your heart and spirit in all the right ways.

5 out of 5 stars Great Information in Small Package.......2004-06-30

I agree with the previous reviewer in that this book is definitely up to par with Telesco's other well-researched titles. The format of the little series is meant for a "gifty" market (I think) and therefore the price is a bit high for a small tome. Nonetheless the author does a fine job of cramming the pages with research and practical information as always.

3 out of 5 stars Nice Little Book on Mirrors in Magick.......2004-01-26

Trish Telesco has written a few of these smaller 'pocketbooks' on various topics. The one that comes to mind the most is the one about cats in myth and magic. This book contains much the same type of information. Ms. Telesco covers the myths behind mirrors, examines the uses for mirrors and the different types of mirrors and how to use mirrors in spell magic as well as personal meditations.

The book is researched and the bibliography contains some interesting sources for her research. The material is well laid out, the chapters contain her usual witty references and it is easy to understand.

Her advice is practical in typical Trish Telesco style and she offers encouragement in the practice and study of this particular medium. Overall, the book is a good beginner point for mirror scrying and history of the mirror in magic.

The size of the book was probably determined by the length of the book (only five chapters and two appendixes) and it is a most uncomfortable size. The cover, while catchy (a small reflective surface pasted on the front of the book), is unimpressive. The price of the book is overstated in my opinion for the content of the book, and is based purely on presentation, which I consider not up to par. Had this been a better produced small hard cover with a nicer print job, as her cat book, I would have been a bit more pleased at the presentation.

If you are getting this book as a gift, it may be worth the price, but to augment my own personal library I would wait till it was discounted a bit before purchase.

Please note the content of the book is worthy of attention, but the packaging and pricing is a bit off. boudica
