5-0 out of 5 stars A book fit for kings and queens
You may have seen images from The Lover's Path, and read descriptions of it, but that won't prepare you for the impact of holding and opening this astonishing object for the first time. I've never seen anything like this book before. It's so much more than the sum of its parts - and heaven knows, the parts are absorbing enough in themselves. Far more than an illustrated book, it offers its reader an experience that's not just literary, not just visual, but tactile as well. Reading the book involves not only attending to the words and images on the page, but physically unfolding a letter inserted among the pages, or removing Tarot cards from an envelope. And these things feel so right in their context. As I read, I'm conscious of the feel of the pages and the curiously solid, comforting weight of the book, in a way that isn't distracting but seems an integral part of the process - an imaginative extension of the reading experience. It's intensely personal. I know that this is a commercially produced book; but it feels like a hand-crafted private press book feels. It sings quietly in the hands.

I found the book invited me to linger over the illustrations and the beautifully designed pages, rather than rush through the story. I read it slowly, only a chapter at each sitting, immersing myself not only in the world of 16th century Venice, but in the luxurious physical presence of the book and its contents. To own this book is the kind of privilege that once only kings and queens could have known. Here, today, it can be had by anyone for a few dollars.

5-0 out of 5 stars To truly love another ...
Artist/author Kris Waldherr has gifted her readers with a world of mythic proportions in this work. You will feel that you are in sixteenth century Venice, walking along side the famous courtesan Tullia Ziani, and her talented younger sister Filomena - the Nightengale.

Woven into this feminist tale are the romantic myths of Beatrice and Dante, Danae and Zeus, Tristan and Isolde, the swan maiden, Psyche and Cupid, Orpheus and Eurydice, and Isis and Osiris.

Through well written words, stunning graphics, maps and letters - we enter another world, one of beauty and grace, but one that is also inhabited by sorrow and tragedy. As for those letters - in a very unique device, Waldherr presents us with several envelopes containing the letters referred to in her story, as part of the book. The reader is also gifted with the cards drawn for Filomena in a Tarot reading.

From the superb quality of the illustrations, to the gilt edged pages, the wonder maps, and the depth of thought presented here - this is a "must have" book for all who would follow the Lover's Path!

5-0 out of 5 stars Beautiful in more ways than one
This is one of the most beautiful books I've ever seen, one of the most romantic, and at the same time contains strong female characters and historical accuracy. As a visual artist myself I know what went into this--years of meticulous research, endless revisions, and a huge wallop of talent. The reproduction is exquisite, leather-bound, gold stamping, and amazing extras like envelopes that open with separate letters that come out. In addition to the gorgeous artwork the story itself is compelling, both sad and hopeful, a moment of respite in our jaded world. Illustrated novels of this quality are hard to find. Take my advice and buy this book; you'll enjoy it and it makes a great present.

5-0 out of 5 stars A Beautiful Book
This is one of the most beautiful, clever, and unique books it's ever been my privilege to own. It will transport you into a different world and a different way of viewing the universe.

4-0 out of 5 stars Nice combination of a pretty story and beautiful art
I like this book.No, it's not the deepest thing you'll ever read, nor is it what I would call great literature, but it is a fun and engaging story.It is a historical romance set in sixteenth-century Venice with the kinds of exotic elements I love, like beautiful palazzos, walled gardens, and forbidden love.But what makes the book particularly enjoyable and worthwhile is its premise.There is a prologue supposedly written by the curator of a museum housed in the heroine's former palazzo.The museum is dedicated to the life of this woman and the story is put forth as a reissue of a book that was written by the protagonist in her lifetime.Now, for the fun part - the book is full of things like little letters that you can open and read, some tucked inside pretty little envelopes that are glued into the book.There are maps and supposed portraits of the book's main characters, all of which are supposed to be facsimiles of items in the museum's collection.Besides all of this, the book itself is beautiful, full of the author's illustrations.The pages have gilded edges and marbled borders.It is truly a work of art, which gives the book far more value than does the story alone.The book is a light, quick read, but it is these unique features and the lovely art that will make me treasure it. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars The Wolfhound
The Wolfhound is the story of a young boy who finds a lost Borzoi dog, and returns it to the Tzar at great personal risk. This story teaches kindness, integrity & courage.Despite the bland review given to the book 'officially', it is books like this one that, taken as a steady diet in a child's youth, develop character traits much desired in people!Children raised on stories such as this (with BEAUTIFUL illustrations) will not likely be found mistreating animals, & integrity and respect for life will become ingrained in their hearts! My children LOVED this book,it is one of our treasures! It encourages a love of good art in addition to the character building attributes of books like this.To label this story 'weak' is both short-sighted and ill-informed.

5-0 out of 5 stars Magic!
This book is a must for borzoi lovers of all ages. The story is simple and touching. And the lovely illustrations capture the gentle beauty and magic of this very special breed--right down to the borzoi's intelligent, loving gaze.

5-0 out of 5 stars The Wolfhound
A wonderful,simple story of peasant boy that saves dog owned by aristocrat and the boy's reward.The illustrations are absolutely luminous and well worth the low price of the book.If you collect children's books, dogbooks, or want a first dog book for a child, buy this book. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars A Bountiful Book
This is an exquisite book and I am amazed that I am the first person to review it. I hope this will encourage people to buy it because it is too lovely to be missed. The talented Kris Waldheer has maintained her history of excellence in the beautiful seasonal illustrations and in the simple but atmospheric text.It is a short story, almost like a thanksgiving ode that takes place over the course of a day in autumn when a little girl and her mother harvest the garden they have been tending all summer. They work together to can and bake and hang flowers and herbs for drying. She reflects over the careful work they did from seed packet to canning jar. Herbs, fruits, vegetables and flowers overflow from the bountiful illustrations and offer a sweet nostalgic feeling that is perfect storytime fare for the autumn months. There is a subtle feeling of the changing of the seasons and a comforting feeling of the natural cycle of Nature. This is a book that opens the world of the quiet thrills of garden and kitchen and introduces it to children in such an inviting way that it could very well help create a life-long appreciation for gardening, home crafts and Nature that will serve them in so many ways. Don't miss it.It is a quiet little gem with excellent values. ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars Nice introduction to Goddesses around the world
My scholarly devotion to paganism had once followed a decidely Celtic path.That is until I picked up this book shortly after seeing Waldherr's Goddess Tarot.While it does not give an in-depth treatment of the selected goddesses, it gives you a taste of other traditions. The cultural diversity of this book is responsible for piquing my interest in Tara, Sarasvati, Kali Ma and Quan Yin - goddesses I now hold dear.I also think this would be a lovely book to give to your non-pagan girlfriends who you wish to gently introduce to your beliefs.Worth checking out.

2-0 out of 5 stars skimming the surface
I was very disappointed in the lack of depth of Embracing the GoddessWithin. There is approxamately a paragraph stating the history or outlineof the story concerning each goddess, then another page devoted to a"ritual" to connect with that goddess. I was aching for moresubstance... to use a familiar goddess, Aphrodite, as an example, Waldherrbasically says that she's a greek goddess of romantic love, unwilling wifeof Vulcan, etc. Then the "ritual" is to take a bath inrosepetals. I expected to gain some deeper understanding behind the cultureof each goddess, but it's little more than what you would find in a"mythological encyclopedia."

5-0 out of 5 stars A wonderful Goddess book!
This is a wonderfully written and illustrated book which would be wonderful for long time followers of the Goddess or would serve as an excellent introduction for newcomers.There are different sections in thebook devoted to Goddesses focusing on specific areas of life.Themeditations are simple, but profound.Just reading them immediately givesyou a feeling of deeper understanding and connection with the Goddess inall her many guises.A very empowering book!I believe it would make awonderful gift for anyone, but most especially any woman who is facingtimes of change or struggle, or one who maybe just needs to be reminded howamazing she is because of the simple fact that she is a woman. ...

4-0 out of 5 stars Lovely and Different
The artwork for this set if beautiful, and it also has some of the finest packaging I've seen for a normally priced tarot set.(Rather than high-priced collectables.)

I think that the retitling of the cards gives them a great deal of freedom with the selection of appropriate images for each of the Majors.

I like this deck, but I could do with just a bit more analysis of each card; yes, I'm an intermediate reader who likes their hand held a little bit.

5-0 out of 5 stars Classic Love Stories and Myths Provide Basis for this Lovely TarotDeck
After purchasing this deck to help a friend tool out her relationship difficulty, I quickly became mesmerized by not only the beautiful artwork depicted on each of the "Lover's Path Tarot", but the extremely satisfying manner in which creator Kris Waldherr has interspersed important legendary love stories from history, myth and literature with important emotional markers to mirror our own inner relationships to underline and further illuminate the Tarot's traditional archetypical connotation.

Each of the 22 Major Arcana represents a famous pair of lovers.Instead of the usual tarot name of the card, the actual emotion corresponding to the traditional tarot symbolism or story of progressive life lessons simplifies and at the same time helps one to remember the actual meaning of the card by remembering the moral of the story signified by the featured couple.For example, Major Arcana card number XIII Death, usually perceived as a frightening card in a reading, is denoted in this deck as the emotion Transformation and embodied by the relationship between Persephone and the god of the Underworld Pluto,The significance of something having to die in order for change to occur becomes poignantly realistic while recalling that Persephone had to allow herself to transform through her 6 months in Hades with Pluto in order to be reborn each Spring.Equally compelling is Waldherr's number XXI World card.Entitled "Triumph" it utilizes the story of Ariadne and Dionysus to elucidate the meaning of the card.Ariadne, abandoned by Theseus after helping him through the Labyrinth, finds greater fulfillment with the god of wine on Naxos.One truly gets the feeling of expansion, hope and a triumph over difficulties that the traditional card represents.

Waldherr's treatment of the 56 minor Arcana cards greatly aids the reader to a more significant understanding and recognition of the meanings behind the appearance of these cards in a reading. Each of the 14 cards in each distinct suit (here, cups represent cups, staves represent rods, arrows represent swords and coins represent pentacles) is used to milestone events in four major stories affiliated with four of the Major Arcana cards.The cups suit (water) details the story of Tristan and Isolde, two lovers definitely influenced by the cups suit traditional theme of a strong emotive influence---Desire.Each beautifully rendered depiction helps the reader to remember the part of the story that the card traditionally and archetypically characterizes. Knowing the story allows the reader to respond to the emotions evoked and to put together a mini-story that facilitates superior spiritual and emotional insight.The Stave ( Rod-fire) suit retells the action story of Sigfried and Brunnhilde--Strength.The story of Cupid and Psyche -- Awakening (the Sun)brings the intellect suit of Arrows (Swords- air) to life while demystisizing some of this suits bleaker cards. The love between Danae and Zeus (Fortune- Wheel of Fortune) exemplifies the suit of Coins (Pentacles - Earth) where the best the world can offer is shown to transform one's life.

In addition to full page and color representations of all 78 cards, the author provides a chapter in the acoompanying bookwhere she explores different spreads designed specifically for particular queries.An addendum completes the author's text, offering a quick, easy-to-read table of both the major Arcana, complete with small photos of each card for easy remembrance and cross-reference, major themes and the paired lovers. Resources are made available for those who want to further their reading about the included paired lovers or about tarot in general.

Bottom line:This exquisite deck adds dimension to the usual Rider-Waite Smith symbolism which still lurks at the heart of each of the cards.The use of the paired lovers not only provides extra visual splendor, but enhances one's initial response to each of the cards in a reading. Well done, Ms Waldherr!Recommended to all those interested in newer Tarot decks that will link famous love relationships with our own thrust for inner growth.

5-0 out of 5 stars A Wonderful Tarot Deck
this is an amazing tarot deck, i recomend it to anyone who is serious about it. not only is it acurate it is a beautiful tarot deck. wonderful deck.

5-0 out of 5 stars If you thought you were going to like it, still you'll be surprised.
As soon as I received the Lover's Path Set I knew I had done the right thing. I expected an high quality product, but I hadn't imagined it would be so sumptuous. The elegant burgundy box has a Velcro strap closure and encloses the card reference book: a glossy, all-colour companion which will explain the tale behind each card, along with the used symbolism, the common meaning, and the omnipresent keywords. A section of the book features 7 spreads to use with the deck and a quick card reference guide. Sealed with a wine ribbon is the spread scroll, which contains the spreads you find also in the book. After drooled over the book and accessories, let's take a look to the cards. The size is a little wider than usual tarot (about 3½" by 4¾") and they are printed in a good matte stock. The rich frame around the picture carries again burgundy and gold tones, and the very drawings follow a Pre-Raphaelite style, which I'm absolutely crazy about. Historical, literary, and legendary couples are portrait in the cards, loosely playing according a Rider-Waite script. Unless you have a solid and varied knowledge of myth and literature (and even so), you surely will take good advantage from reading the companion book. This will help beginners to restore their Rider-Waite references, and will be also useful to expert readers for understanding the feeling of this deck and consulting it for love and relationship matters. If you are a collector, instead, you surely don't want to miss this piece of art, which is a real feast for your eyes.
This is one of those times when it is mandatory to buy the boxset.

5-0 out of 5 stars Another Winner from Waldherr
I've been a fan of Waldherr since The Book of Goddesses, have all of her books and several of her prints, and eagerly awaited this deck though I did not believe I could possibly appreciate it as much as her Goddess Tarot. I was wrong; the artwork is gorgeous, the interpretation of the traditional images/archetypes is fresh and thought-provoking without straying too far to be recognizable, and the package is beautifully put together. ...

For quite a while now I have been using Kris Waldherr's online Goddess Inspiration Oracle http://www.artandwords.com/goddesses/gid.html where you can choose a card to give you insight & encouragement.This has been during an extremely stressful and difficult time, whilst I was working at restoring my health after a physical breakdown and also in the initial stages of building a new online business.The challenges that I confronted each day were transformed by seeing the beautiful and reassuring images of the Goddess Inspiration Oracle kit!I was filled with hope and understanding about whatever life or day situation in which I had found myself.There can be no price put on this experience and I eagerly awaited the hard copy of the Goddess Inspiration Oracle when it became available.It is more of a delight than the online version and beautiful quality, small enough to take with you on the go!
As quoted in the book 'Inspiration.To take spirit into ourselves.Like the air surrounding us, we cannot see inspiration.But it is there nonetheless.And it animates when we least expect it.'However using the Goddess Inspiration Kit guarantees & facilitates inspiration when we need & search for it!I am an astrologer of 28 years experience and agree with Kris's comment in the accompanying book that most of the time our future is fluid & dependent on our actions & mindset.It then follows that the beautiful pictures and tender words of the Goddess Inspiration kit imply a positive outcome in any life situation in which we may find ourselves.The reason being is that we will look & feel more gently towards ourselves from using the kit leaving us open to respond to the magic of life rather than hardening & shutting down from challenges and missing subtle opportunities!This kit can help you transform your life by bathing you in Feminine magic and deepest wisdom in good times or bad.

3-0 out of 5 stars An 80-Card Oracle Dedicated to the Goddesses
"We are meant to be filled with joyful inspiration, to spill over with exuberant spirit. May the Goddess Inspiration Oracle animate your life with inspiration, providing you with an intimate experience of the Divine Feminine." - Kris Waldherr

From the brilliance of Athena to the compassion of Kuan Yin, the beauty of Freyja to the passion of Pele, stories of goddesses weave through centuries of myth and culture. Whether displaying feats of strength, imparting sage counsel or brokering peace, these threads of Divine Feminine energy provide models to emulate and contemplate.

For some, this energy is as real as breath itself, arriving on the wings of invocation. For others, the goddesses represent archetypal containers of specific traits that can be accessed for creative pursuits, personal growth, healing and illumination.

Artist and author Kris Waldherr couples the variegated energy of the Goddess with an accessible form of divination that anyone can use: oracle cards. The Goddess Inspiration Oracle unfurls the artistry from Ms. Waldherr's previous works, including The Goddess Tarot, Sacred Animals, Lover's Path Tarot and The Book of Goddesses.

Highlighting the unique energy of 80 different goddesses, the Goddess Inspiration Oracle and the 112-page companion book provide seekers with everything they need for consulting the Feminine Divine.

Do you need a dose of eloquence so that you may speak with confidence? Focus upon the Nigerian goddess Oya. Perhaps you feel a brush with luck or increased prosperity is in order? The Indian goddess, Lakshmi, is considered the sacred manifestation of abundance. If you've been passive for far too long, needing a backbone instead of a wishbone, perhaps the fiery Hawaiian goddess Pele would be your gal!

In addition to using these cards for affirmations or inspiration, the Goddess Inspiration Oracle serves as a comprehensive divination tool. Whether you require insight on past, present or future experiences, the wealth of goddesses--some well known and others more obscure--from cultures around the world stand ready to aid you on life's journey.

Here are but a few of the goddesses you'll find in the Goddess Inspiration Oracle:

* Aine, The Fairy Queen - Love, Light and Magic
* Brigit, The Fiery Arrow - Poetry, Artistry and Fire
* Demeter, The Mother - The Seasons, Motherhood, and Loss
* Gaia, Mother Earth - Creation, The Earth and Connection
* Hekate, The Dark One - Menopause, Wisdom and The Supernatural
* Inanna, Queen Moon - The Heavens, Strength and Resurrection
* Lalita, The Amorous - Love, Flirting and The Universe
* The Muses, Goddesses of Inspiration - The Arts, Science and Creativity
* Nut, The Celestial Vault - The Sky, The Stars and Protection
* Oshun, The Modest One - Water, Love and Fertility
* Rhiannon, The Horse Goddess - Progress, Happy Endings and Desire

In the companion book to the Goddess Inspiration Oracle, Ms. Waldherr explains the varied uses of this deck, and gives a brief bio of each of the goddesses--as well as a pertinent oracular phrase that is re-printed on the front of the corresponding card.

Cards measure 4-5/8 x 2-3/4 inches, but the painted images are less than 2 x 2 inches. A muddied chartreuse motif borders the small central image, with the same dull color echoed on the non-reversible backings. A dark monochromatic gray fills most of the background on the front of the cards.

Packaged in a flimsy box, The Goddess Inspiration Oracle also comes with a useful gold organdy bag with satin drawstrings. (Incidentally, the same bag comes with the Mystic Faerie Tarot).

I've had great success with Doreen Virtue's Goddess Guidance Oracle Cards (in fact, it's one of my favorite non-Tarot decks), so I looked forward to working with the Goddess Inspiration Oracle.

Unfortunately, these cards didn't work for me. One day, I was going through a particularly challenging time and drew a card that was entirely irrelevant. However, I stuck with it for a few days--pondering that, perhaps, there was some "hidden" message that I was overlooking. A few days later, I was having an incredible day hanging out with my husband, reading on the porch during a warm rain that lasted hours.

I thought I'd give this deck another try during this lovely time...just a peaceful "checking in" with the goddesses...so I shuffled thoroughly--and then drew *the exact same card as before*! Again, it was 100% irrelevant on all counts. I gave this deck two more tries, including as I was writing this review (I would have been delighted had it resonated!), but alas--nada.

This surprised and disappointed me--but I'm well aware that no oracle is perfect for everyone. But because the Goddess Inspirational Oracle has almost double the cards of a Doreen Virtue deck (80 as opposed to 44), I incorrectly assumed it would "double my pleasure" in accessing wisdom from the goddesses.

While this deck didn't work for me, it has a lot of potential, in theory. If you're a huge fan of Ms. Waldherr's writings and art, you'll no doubt enjoy the Goddess Inspiration Oracle. I love that the goddesses in this deck span many cultures (although, Mother Mary is notably absent here), so those wanting to connect with the Divine Feminine or increase their knowledge of goddesses around the world may also benefit from this deck.

5-0 out of 5 stars The Goddess Within
I am an ardent fan of Kris Waldherr's "Goddess Tarot", and am just becoming happily acquainted with her work "The Book of Goddesses". As an artist, and as an author, she is an eloquent spokesperson for the divine feminine within each of us.

"The Book of Goddesses" 2007 Calendar transfers the illustrations from her exquisite book into calendar format. The goddesses are from diverse cultures, and through image and story they bring the Divine Feminine to life.

At 12 inches by 12 inches, this is a fairly good sized calendar. It is formatted into two parts: the upper half shows a vibrant, full color graphic of the Goddess, while the lower half shows the Goddess on the left handside of the page, with the monthly calender on the remaining three-quarters of the page. At the bottom of the lower page is a precis about the Goddess and her history.

The calender pages include US and religious holidays, and the new and full moons.

The first page of the calendar shows the last four months of the year 2006, under the auspices of the Goddess Isis. the story reads:

"From before 3000 BCE to the second century CE, Isis was worshiped in Egypt as teh great mother goddess of the universe. She was present every day at sunrise, and at the time of the new and full moons. Responsible for everything to do with wetness adn moisture, her milk nourished all living beings. Her traditional headdress, a sun disk between two cow horns, symbolizes her varied duties."

The goddesses represented include Isis, Venus, Benzai-ten, Lakshmi, Gwenhywfar, Kwan Yin, Psyche, Chang O, Xochiquetzal, Oya, Athena, adn Freyja.

Such beautiful illustrations and well written text make this calendar a joy to have on the wall, and a "keeper" when the year is over. ... Read more
