INTRODUCTION
The feminine goddess, both the dark and wanton harlots and the grieving mother - all have a place not only in the world but within each and every one of us: our shadow side, our lost moments, regrets, resentments and heartaches. The dark and divine feminine exists in all of us and has always done so.
This book explores some of those darker emotions, that come with the heartache of loss, whether thrust upon us or of our own doing heartbreak has affected or will affect us all in some way.
Ereshkigal is no stranger to grief and loss. She does not condemn our sorrow, our rage, or our inability to cope. Instead, through her own heartache she shows us that grief is something which can bring a deeper understanding of the continuation of life, and how death is an essential part of our spiritual journey. Though painful, grief can bring about the change needed to heal our emotional scars.
