This book has something for anyone who feels the need for creative inspiration. The Muses are the Ancient Greek goddesses of poetry, song, music, and dance, and have long been called upon by writers, musicians and anyone engaged in the arts. In Pagan Portals - The Muses, Irisanya Moon offers a well-researched look at their history and mythology, and offers practical ways to honour them and ask for their aid. You can meet them via trance and meditation; work with them via writing, painting, or music; perform a ritual in their honour; or simply get to know them better and learn the stories told about them. Irisanya Moon also looks at the role of the Muses in our contemporary world and ways we can find inspiration in everyday life. -- Lucya Starza, author of Pagan Portals books on Candle Magic, Poppets and Magical Dolls, Scrying, and Rounding the Wheel of the Year, and the novel Erosion
Description
The Muses are ready to share their knowledge with you...
If we want to dream of a new world, we need all the help we can get. We need divine support to see beyond what we know and what we think is possible. The Muses can offer us inspiration through poetry, history, astronomy, comedy, dance, and music. With their relentless creativity, the Muses inspire not only artists but also those who want to create new structures and visions of sustainable, supportive communities. With their guidance, we can widen our thinking and conceive of solutions to serve the emerging needs of the world. Connecting and reconnecting to inspiration fosters hope and courage, and the Muses are ready to pass on their knowledge, a knowing that only comes from having seen all that has ever happened.
