Journey Into Self Love with Aphrodite (Greek Mythology)
This introduction to Aphrodite is short and sweet. I want you to be more about feeling than thinking in this first meditation. So expect a brief introduction to Aphrodite before we move into feeling love in our meditation. Aphrodite is the goddess of swans, roses, apples, arts and all things graceful, inspired and creative. Her energy urges us toward Self-Love, celebrating her divine self by being completely unself-conscious of her own beauty and the beauty of others. Above all, Aphrodite represents the transformative power of love.

Leçon 9
Journey Into Passion With Pele (Hawaiian Mythology)
Working with Pele is to work with a lot of energy and power, which is why I have left her until last. Like a volcano gathering strength we have been warming up to this fiery goddess. Pele also, to my mind represents something inside all women that we should sometimes like to set free – a burning hellfire, a tirade of glorious fury, to burn and destroy without regret. Pele represent passion and fire unleashed onto the earth, unapologetic – and in return Pele is not judged, or criticised, or told to ‘calm down’. She is too powerful for that – so she is given the complete respect she deserves. Surely all woman would like to experience this! Hence one of the many reasons for Pele’s well-earned fame.
