In this comprehensive and groundbreaking work, scholar Andrew Harvey unearths traces of the sacred feminine in major world religions as well as in aboriginal and indigenous wisdom traditions.

In a time when most formal religions are on the wane, Wicca is said to be the fastest growing religion in North America.
