The goddess in a dress of feathers

Rediscovering our female roots: how did women live in the time of the Celts and Germanic tribes?

Goddesses, wise women, seers – they were all once an integral part of our western culture. Luisa Francia rescues them from the past and depicts the female universe of Norse myths. How did these women live, what was sacred to them, what rituals did they celebrate? We meet goddesses, female warriors, and women who were the weavers of fate’s loom. We are immersed in dark woods, connected spiritually with nature and so, at last, we can get in touch with our elemental female force, enabling us to access the source of our power as women once again.

Luisa Francia is an author, an artist, an expert on sorcery, a traveler; she has an adult daughter, speaks five languages and has published more than 30 books, some of which became bestsellers. She keeps a web-log www.salamandra.de. Her favorite concern is the re-enchantment of the world.
