Artemis: The Indomitable Spirit in Everywoman (For Readers of Crones Don’t Whine or The Twelve Faces of the Goddess) Paperback – 1 September 2014

Activism for the Up to date Day Artemis

From the creator dubbed “an Artemis,” by Gloria Steinem, comes Artemis: The Indomitable Spirit in Everywoman, a book dedicated to women with the courage and passion to change the world.

Myths come to life. Worshiped in Ancient Greece as a protectress of young girls, Artemis was once the goddess of hunting, nature, and chastity―the original “wild woman.” In Artemis, Jungian analyst and best-selling creator, Jean Shinoda Bolen, revives the goddess Artemis to reclaim the female passion and persistence to live to tell the tale and succeed.

We are all goddesses. But an indomitable spirit isn’t just reserved for the gods. In her book, Dr. Bolen revives the myth of Atalanta, an archetypal Artemis and mere mortal. To Atalanta, fate was once no obstacle. Left to die because she was once born a girl, she faces the Calydon Boar and outruns any man making an attempt to claim her as his wife. In Artemis, women are encouraged to discover their inner heroine―the activist who never gives up, who can’t be subdued.

Artemis lately. Face it: women can’t be tamed. Whether women’s rights activists or Princess Merida from Brave, the Artemis personality is embodied within the Up to date women. Hailed by a Up to date-day Artemis, Isabel Allende, as a “beautiful, inspiring book,” Artemis is dedicated to all girls and women who discover her unconquerable spirit in themselves or others. Inside find:

• Examples of Artemis in real-life and popular culture
• Ancient and Up to date how one can be your authentic self
• A source of strength, power, and integrity
