This book shatters the existing patriarchal view of menopause as a time of loss and disempowerment. In contrast, through employing an alchemical lens or framework, menopause becomes an opportunity for a woman's pilgrimage into the mundus imaginalis-- where she finds her authentic, powerful self. Menopause is seen as a developmental stage welcoming a woman to the time of her ultimate creative expression. Through eight meditations and exploration of Western culture's mythological context, A Full Moon shows how empowering menopause can be. Learn how woman's pilgrimage through menopause can be understood as a time of plentiful growth and healing with significant spiritual rewards beyond the individual woman.
