Review # 1 was written on 2010-03-05 00:00:00 Dante Hall I have re-read this book many, many times since I was about 16 years old. Not just for women in mid-life.

Review # 2 was written on 2011-09-07 00:00:00 John Caldwell As someone else said in her review, you don't have to be at midlife (or a woman, for that matter) to enjoy this book. Jean Shinoda Bolen takes on a tour of some of the ancient mystical Goddess sites of Europe. I have been to these sites many times, and it was nice to take a trip back there with Bolen and observe the different feelings she felt on her journeys. It was hard for me not to get a little depressed, as I always do, at the almost complete annihilation of matrifocal worship in our world's history, but Bolen reminds us with this offering that it is essential that we all tell our psychic/spiritual/dream stories of "remembering" that history for ourselves.
