The Other Goddess
Mary Magdalene and the Goddesses of Eros and Secret Knowledge
by Dr. Joanna Kujawa
Description
Is there a lineage of goddesses that claims the evolutionary power of female sexuality? And if so, why were they pushed to the shadows and demeaned as harlots? Was Mary Magdalene one of them, and what were her teachings?
Dr. Joanna Kujawa argues that in the process of recovering the healing power of the Goddess we have focused solely on the mother archetype and left out the other Goddess, who is often represented in mythical, historical, and Gnostic sources as wise, mysterious, and in the possession of the healing power of Eros.
Learn about Mary Magdalene’s portrayal in the gnostic gospels as a teacher in her own right and Jesus' intimate partner, the possibility of her life as an alchemist in Egypt, and her last years in Southern France. Find out if Mary Magdalene was the same person as Mary the Prophetess of Egypt and her connection to the mysterious Cathars, Black Madonnas, and Knights Templar.
Whether looking at Mary Magdalene, Sophia, Aphrodite, Inanna, Hathor, Isis, or the goddesses of esoteric Hinduism, Dr. Kujawa finds the archetype of The Other Goddess-the bearer of the mysteries of sexual alchemy that ends the division between sexuality and spirituality.

Reviews
Dr. Kujawa presents a very compelling, intelligent, well-researched account of goddesses and goddess energy that rises far above any typical discussion on the subject. Her work fundamentally transforms knowledge about who we are and who we might become if we open our eyes, our minds, and our hearts. This is essential reading for anyone interested in new femininity and masculinity, exploring ancient archetypes, and deepening spiritual development.
