Barbara Walker Tarot reflects a unique feminist perspective of tarot with religious and pagan symbols from around the world. The Court Cards depict mythological gods and goddesses. The dominant colors of the deck and the card back design are red, black and white because they are "recognized everywhere as the colors of the original feminine Trinity (Triangle) representing her three phases of Virgin, Mother and Crone." Includes 78 pocket-sized cards with keywords in English, and a 48-page booklet.

This book takes a look at the places where people gather in Bali: the village, the temple, the garden, and the palace. Filled with lavish photographs of Balinese architecture and various aspects of Balinese culture, Gathering Places is as subtly beautiful as the quiet grace of the island's people.

Ein Quellenbuch, das zeigt, dass Spiritualität durch die Sinne erlebbar ist und Frauen ermutigt, eigene Rituale zu schaffen, um ihre religiöse Verbundenheit individuell auszudrücken.

Viele der althergebrachten spirituellen Symbole und sakralen Objekte wurzeln in frühen weiblich-zentrierten Kulturen, wurden jedoch im Laufe der Geschichte dem Patriarchat einverleibt und sinnentstellend umgedeutet, so daß die meisten der ursprünglichen Inhalte dabei in Vergessenheit gerieten. Heute sind die Frauen dabei, das Joch der patriarchalen Unterdrückung abzuschütteln und ihre alten Symbole wieder für sich zurückzufordern. Barbar G. Walker beleuchtet in über 700 Artikeln und zahlreichen Illustrationen Herkunft, Form und Inhalt dieser Symbole und zeichnet ihre wechselvolle Deutungsgeschichte durch alle Zeiten und Kulturen bis zu ihren matriarchalen Ursprüngen nach. So wird dieses Lexikon zu einem enzyklopädischen Nachschlagewerk der weiblichen Spiritualität und einem Schatz der geheimen Symbole der Frauen.

Bali's culture is a blend of ancient traditions and influences from the outside world, with the Balinese sense of art expressed in their art and design, architecture and music.

Corn Dolly An embodiment of the harvest to be set in the center of the harvest dance, or fed to the cattle to `make them thrive year round' (see Secular-Sacred Objects). Tongue In Asia, the extended tongue was a sign of life-force as the tongue between the lips imitated the sacred lingam-yoni: male within female genital. Sticking out the tongue is still a polite sign of greeting in northern India and Tibet (see Body Parts). Cosmic Egg In ancient times the primeval universe-or the Great Mother-took the form of an egg. It carried all numbers and letters within an ellipse, to show that everything is contained within one form at the beginning (see Round and Oval Motifs).

A probing account of the honored place of older women in ancient matriarchal societies restores to contemporary women an energizing symbol of self-value, power, and respect.
