THE QUEEN OF MY SELF:
Stepping Into Sovereignty in Midlife
By Donna Henes
(Monarch Press 2005)
$16.95 (plus shipping & handling) |
|
|
| |
From
one of the leading spiritual practitioners writing
and working today, a landmark book that celebrates
a new mythic model for the middle years of a woman's
life -- the Queen!
Millions of women are now entering or in the midst
of midlife. With unprecedented freedom, education,
longevity, and wealth, they hold positions of unheard
of responsibility and stature. No longer Maidens,
nor Mothers, and not yet old Crones, the question
arises: Where do these dynamic, accomplished middle-aged
women fit into the traditional description of the
three stages of womanhood?
In The Queen of My Self, Donna Henes
proposes a completely original paradigm — that
of the midlife Queen, a woman in her prime who has
achieved wisdom, mastery, and self-esteem —
that reflects more accurately the realities and needs
of women today. Henes draws on history, mythology,
and literature, her own life experience, as well as
stories from women in many different societies, situations
and stations to provide upbeat, practical, and ceremonial
inspiration for all women who want to enjoy the fruits
of an influential, passionate, and powerful maturity.
"Finally, an archetype of midlife power and maturity
that I can relate to — The Queen. Thank you
Donna for providing this much-needed missing piece
of women's wisdom."

The
moon, that celestial silver shape-shifter, has always
provided humankind with a mysterious and fascinating
nocturnal sky show. From the very earliest time, people
have watched its endlessly interesting cyclical changes
and wondered. What is it made of? How was it formed?
Why does it behave as it does? What does it look like
up close? Who lives there? A fascinating compendium
of lunar science, myth, folklore, poetry, curious facts
and old wives' wisdom culled from cultures throughout
the ages and across the globe.
"The Moon: as goddess,
as science, as inspiration for poetry — almost
everything you could want to know about the moon in
a beautifully crafted book. Donna Henes' lovely work
will have an honored place near the altar and near
the telescope."

In
1980, Urban Shaman Donna Henes conducted a three-week
ritual healing residency with the patients and staff
at the Manhattan Psychiatric Center at the invitation
of the medical director. Her diary documents the process
of this extraordinary project. Her notes and musings
explore the realms of sanity, insanity, creativity,
and spirituality as they are perceived and handled
in many cultures.
"It was not until I came
across Dressing Our Wounds in Warm Clothes,
which captures the texture of the poem-houses of my
dreams, that I met another journal-keeper who built
houses from visions of minuscule, ordinary beauty.
My houses are poems and journal entries for me now,
and I thank Donna Henes for that."
