The first magazine of feminist spirituality, WomanSpirit chronicled the exciting exploration of women's changing lives through the decade 1974-1984. WomanSpirit showcased art and writing from women all over the world, from the academy to alternative cultures. Produced in forested Southern Oregon by an open collective of volunteers, inspired and sustained by editors Jean and Ruth Mountaingrove, it was published quarterly as the seasons turned.
WomanSpirit explored creating women's culture, ecology, ritual, healing, psychic abilities, feminist politics, women's life stages, wicca, divination, death and dying, goddess myths and traditions, and many other topics. Gorgeous artwork, photographs, songs, stories, articles, discussions, poems, letters, and book reviews sparked and connected the international web of contributors and subscribers. More than ten years later WomanSpirit continues to inspire, empower, and challenge original readers and draw new ones.
Now in honor of that accomplishment, we are gathering a selection of those ground-breaking issues to create an Anthology called The Book of WomanSpirit. Join us in this exciting adventure.
