THE CHARGE OF THE DARK GODDESS Wisdom and empowerment are the gifts of the Dark Goddess of Transformation.She is known to us as Kali, Hecate, Cerridwen, Lilith, Persephone, Fata, Morgana, Ereshkigal, Arianhrod, Durga, Inanna, Tiamat, and by a million, million other names:Hear me child, and know Me for who I am. I have been with you since you were born, and I will stay with you until you return to Me at the final dusk.I am the passionate and seductive lover who inspires the poet to dream.I am the One who calls to you at the end of your journey. After the day is done, My children find their blessed rest in my embrace.I am the Sorceress that will not be ruled, the Weaver of Time, the Teacher of Mysteries. I snip the threads that bring my children home to me. I slit the throats of the cruel and drink the blood of the heartless. Swallow your fear and come to me, and you will discover true beauty, strength, and courage.I am the fury which rips the flesh from injustice.I am the glowing forge that transforms your inner demons into tools of power. Open yourself to my embrace and overcome.I am the glinting sword that protects you from harm.I am the crucible in which all the aspects of yourself merge together in a rainbow of union.I am the velvet depths of the night sky, the swirling mists of midnight, shrouded in mystery.I am the chrysalis in which you will face that which terrifies you and from which you will blossom forth, vibrant and renewed. Seek me at the rossroads, and you shall be transformed, for once you look upon my face, there is no return.Excerpted from The Charge of the Dark Goddess
