Welcome to stunning new thinking …
Authors Dale O’Neal and Arthur Waters deliver a compelling narrative with striking images that connects ancient Goddess worship to the beliefs and practices of modern religions, particularly Judaism and Christianity.
Readers of The Ancient Moon Goddess should prepare themselves to learn how a Stone Age misconception about conception gave rise to the civilization of the Moon Goddess. Her world was then crushed by a patriarchal civilization grounded in an equally flawed idea about conception. The book calls for a complementary relationship between the sexes based on the correct view of conception. Discover what convinced the Ancients that the Moon was a real woman. Learn why sex was central to Goddess worship. Discover how patriarchy threw over the long-established matriarchy. Learn why Stone-agers ate their gods and kings. See how the death and resurrection of the Goddess and Jesus mirror each other. The Ancient Moon Goddess builds on the work of mythologist Joseph Campbell, scientist and futurist Riane Eisler, and anthropologist Marija Gimbutas. It shows how our Stone Age ancestors constructed a Goddess-centered culture based on a magical view of the cosmos, which to them seemed self-evident.
There is no question that for many readers The Ancient Moon Goddess will be disruptive. To put it mildly, it is unsettling to learn how patriarchy crushed the Goddess; how Judaism buried her; and how Christianity hides her.
Dr. Dale O’Neal is an author, clinical psychologist, former minister and music minister, and a lifelong student of ancient history and mythology.
