Product Description
Book Description
Goddesses from Greek, Roman, Celtic, Native American, Egyptian, Middle Eastern, Scandinavian, and many other traditions are gathered here to enhance our understanding of the roles of the feminine deity. In learning about these archetypes, we come to recognize them in ourselves---to gain a clearer perception of our powers and weaknesses and to achieve a common thread, a link to the collective unconscious. Susan Seddon Boulet's magnificent paintings and Michael Babcock's insightful text offer a brilliant vision of the female pantheon.
With paintings on one side and brief biographies on the other, these 48 fact-filled Knowledge Cards are a great source of condensed information--all in a deck the size of a pack of playing cards! You'll learn essential facts about the featured art and artists in this concise, stimulating compilation. Perfect for connoisseurs, art fiends, students, teachers, and the purely inquisitive, this deck is sure to spark your curiosity and admiration, and to encourage you to learn more on your own.

Gorgeous Visionary Art and Goddess Guidance,
By SeashellPoint "Nancy" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Flsh Card-Goddesses (Paperback)
This beautiful deck of 48 cards feature the goddess paintings of visionary artist Susan Seddon Boulet. Images draw on the goddesses from many traditions and the flip side of each card explains the role of that goddess in mythology and how her special energy can be brought into your life. These cards are wonderful for meditation or for creating your own readings for yourself and others. Highly recommended!

a nice item,
By Sprout - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Flsh Card-Goddesses (Paperback)
I thought these were a great idea. I found them in a used bookstore for $5.The good: The goddess cards cover a pretty wide range of pantheons. The descriptive text on the back is well-written and high quality. The artwork is imaginative. The less-than-good: Overall, it seems the artist has one female face that she uses as a template for her art: full lips, long face, peaceful yet somewhat vacant eyes. In a deck like this, I would have desired perhaps some more differences among the goddesses in order to highlight the natures of the deities depicted, especially the more feral or darker aspects, which this deck seems to shy away from. It has a very warm/fuzzy/positive feel, and seems to avoid or gloss over some of the darker archetypes. After browsing through the deck again, it almost seems like she might have used the same model for many of the pieces. Despite that complaint, this is still a solid product for which i would have paid full price. 6 of 6 people found the following review helpful

Diva Wisdom,
By Lilysmom "purr" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Flsh Card-Goddesses (Paperback)
I have loved Boulet's art at first sight. I discovered her work at a point in my life where I was aggressively exploring the feminine face of the Divine. The Goddess Knowledge cards are excellent renditions of artworks that grace the annual Goddesses calendar and datebooks. The cards may be used for decorative and educational purposes. A wonderful use is as a tool for seeking cultivating the intuitive wisdom associated with each of the goddesses within one's self. Like I said, I love them.
