Goddess Matters presents an in-depth look at today’s trends in Goddess spirituality and emerging Goddess religions, covering a wide range of subjects, some of them rarely discussed in other books. These include contemporary Goddess temples and conferences, Goddess ethics, relationship of gender to sexual risks, responses to natural disasters, emerging Goddess figures in Judaism and Christianity, various controversies, and cutting edge thought that relates Goddess and science. Also included are chapters on intuitive and psychic work; death and the possibility of “afterlife”; various approaches to spirituality and religion; and a look at the probable future of Goddess spirituality. There is also a chapter on terms used to discuss intuitive work and psychics, and a chapter with definitions of terms used to discuss religion.
