A couple of friends of mine took me on a birthday field trip to Northshire Books in Manchester, VT. While there I found a hidden gem; a used copy of \u201cGoddess Guide Me: The Oracle That Answers Questions of the Heart\u201d by Amy Zerner and Monte Farber. It was published in 1992 by Fireside Books, a subsidiary of Simon and Schuster. <\/p>\n

This is a truly unique oracle compared to others I\u2019ve seen. It\u2019s a cardboard book and each page is divided into three parts; a top, middle, and bottom. When the pages are together, they form beautiful images of goddesses from around the globe. That\u2019s thanks to Amy Zerner who is known for her fabric paintings.<\/p>\n

$\"\"$ <\/a>The divided page represents Head, Heart, and Home. There\u2019s text on each section. The head is about mental qualities attributed to each goddess. The heart focuses on purely emotional qualities attributed to each goddess. The home section focuses on the type of physical actions associated with each goddess and reminds you that emulating those actions can help you attain your goal.<\/p>\n

So here\u2019s what you do. \u201cGoddess Guide Me\u201d comes with three 12 sided dice. A purple one for head, a blue for heart, and a black one for home. You roll them and the number tells you how many pages to flip in the book. If you roll a 5 on the purple (head) die, you turn five head pages. In this case, it gets the goddess Freyja. A 9 on the blue (heart) die gets Lakshmi. An 11 on the black (home) die gets Atlantia. That\u2019s totally neat, right?<\/p>\n

There is a companion book that comes with it that gives you instructions on using the oracle, insight into the goddesses, and rituals.<\/p>\n

\u201cGoddess Guide Me\u201d is an amazing tool that seems as relevant today as I\u2019m sure it was when it was published in 1992. What publisher is going to step up and help make this fantastic oracle set available again?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
