Book Description
Every woman could use a little supernatural assistance now and then. With help from renowned psychic Sophia, now you can do as the ancients did and summon the power of a goddess. Need money? Summon Lakshmi, Hindu goddess of wealth and prosperity. Want to advance your career? Call upon Athena, Greek patroness of career women. Having a run of bad luck? Invoke Fortune, Roman goddess of good luck and help in gambling. For every dilemma, there is a goddess who has the power you seek. Sophia brings the power of the ancients to you in this fun guide designed to help you get what you want out of life. Sophia describes each goddess in detail, listing her sacred color, symbol, element, stone, and scent. She offers a fascinating history of each goddess and her traits, including how she has been worshipped throughout history. Decide which goddess you need, then perform an invocation to summon her powers. Through a visualization exercise, you will "meet" the goddess in a dream. Finally, spells and empowerment charms help you "become" the goddess and bring her aspects into everyday life. With the wisdom of Athena, the prosperity of Lakshmi, and the luck of Fortuna, you can't lose!
WHAT ARE GODDESS EMPOWERMENTS?
Author Appearences & Information
from Sophia:
"I am now available for Goddess
Empowerment
speaking engagements, workshops and book signings. I am also
available
for private readings and for events and would enjoy the opportunity to
collaborate with others. I live in Seattle with my family and garden.
When
I am not writing, I give private Goddess Empowerments and psychic and
astrology
readings in my Yurt.
I am a hereditary psychic, and my
grandparents
taught me the ways of the family trade. I am the fourth generation from
a long line of tea leaf readers, mediums and fortune tellers. As such,
I am a best selling author of eleven books. These all culminate in my
new
book: The Ultimate Guide to Goddess Empowerment. I have been featured
in
The New York Times, Cosmopolitan Magazine, and First for Woman.
One
of my titles, The Little Book of Love Spells made it to Hollywood,
where
it "Starred" in the movie Bride of Chuckie. My lectures are always fun,
entertaining, and informative. My Empowerments…they are divine!The
ancient
primal goddess lies beneath and within us all, just waiting to be
released
to help us get more out of what we deserve out of life.
In The Ultimate
Guide to Goddess Empowerment I re-introduce twenty-five different
Goddesses
to the modern world. Each Goddess chapter is illuminated with step by
step
instructions to make anyone a living goddess. Become the Goddess you
need,
desire or identify with: From Artemis, The Greek Goddess of the moon to
Yakshi, the primal Mother of the forest.. In this hip fun book you are
sure to find a goddess that you will personally resonate with.
In my lectures and
workshops I show all exactly how to make this connection.
The Ultimate Guide to Goddess
Empowerment
is sure to please and inspire those who are familiar with the Goddess
in
any of her infinite forms and enlighten those who want to experience
the
power of the Goddess (any Goddess!) for the first time. Let me be your
tour guide to the many aspects of the Goddess!
For speaking
engagements
or Goddess Empowerments I sometimes start with a group meditation where
we determine the Goddess Aspect that the group needs to manifest. I
also
do specifically requested Goddess Empowerments as well. If no
particular
Goddess is requested or is called for, I often do an Empowerment
invoking
the Tibetan healing Goddess Tara, or Kwan Yin the Chinese Goddess of
peace.
Goddess Empowerments
are a joyful audience experience. I clearly show what you need to make
a successful connection to each Goddess: The right color candle, image,
scent, and stone can make all the difference in an intense empowerment.
Next, I introduce the history of that Goddess and then chant an
invocation
to call the goddess to our world, a cosmic invitation for her to visit.
After that I lead all in a powerful visualization adventure
exercise.
The participants meet the during this restful meditation. Finally I
perform
the Goddess Empowerment, to bring the goddess attributes through to
each
person with power and clarity. If I do the Tara empowerment, for
example,
then we would all feel healing energy through our selves and pass it on
to others. If we do the Kwan yin empowerment, then we should feel great
inner peace that we can help influence others with our peaceful nature.
All the Goddesses bring other very real gifts, depending on whom you
call.
I always finish with a question and answers period, a book
signing.
This format is,
of course flexible and open depending on requests and possibilities!"
Peace
