This image is based on the Rite of Drawing Down the Moon in which the divinity of the woman is acknowledged, invoked and honored. In Wiccan circles the Goddess energy flows through the priestess as she embodies the Goddess within. The overall shape of the Visica Pisces here represents the Yoni. A popular Goddess chant encircles the outside: "Isis, Astarte, Diana, Hecate, Demeter, Kali, Inanna." A line from the Five Fold Kiss - "Blessed be thy womb without which we would not be," - serves to purify and align the body in preparation to open to the Goddess energy. This rite expresses the purpose of our physical form to worship and commune with the divine.

The foliage around The Earth Mother demonstrates the many phases of the Goddess. Here the intention is to present the flow of life, from birth--via the young buds--through life, finally ending at death and transformation, as symbolized by the dead branches and snake. The Earth Mother is surrounded by animals, flowers and herbs sacred to the Goddess. The crescent on her brow identifies her not only as the Goddess of the fertile Earth, but also of the ever-changing Moon, symbol of rebirth. The torc encircling her neck is a Celtic symbol of Sovereignty.
Fire dances passionately in the heat of flame and the noon day sun.

This is a common salutation in the Neo-Pagan Community. It is meant to invoke the power, love and protection of the Goddess. It may be a feminization of the well known polite response to a sneeze: "God Bless You!" The border around the edge holds many images of Earth Centered Spirituality - the Chalice, 2 Stags, Moon Phases and the Pentacle. May it bless your home with the energy and protection of the Goddess!
The border is a knotwork design with hidden imagery. See if you can find two stags a chalice, pentagrams and moon phases. “Harm None” is a line from the Wiccan Rede. The full text reads: “Bide the Wiccan Law ye must, in perfect love and perfect trust. Eight words the Wiccan Rede fufill, an it harm none, do what ye will. Lest in thy self-defense be ever mind the rule of three. Follow this with mind and heart, for merry we meet and merry we part.”
This image of Lilith is based largely on a Sumerian clay tablet relief from 2000 BC. She wears the horned crown that marks her as a Goddess not a demon in Sumerian mythology. Lilith appears in Sumerian, Babylonian, Assyrian, Canaanite, Persian, Hebrew, Arabic and Teutonic mythology. She is also known as Adam's "first wife" who refused to "lie beneath." In the oldest mythologies she is a Goddess and in later stories she is demonized. Lilith is a motherless form of the divine feminine even known to some as the wife of Yahweh. As the embodiment of the neglected, outcast and rejected aspects of the Great Goddess she calls women to rise up in strength to reclaim their own divinity.
This image depicts the Horned God leading a traditional Spiral Dance. This joyous dance usually starts as a circle with people holding hands, spirals into the center looking almost like a labyrinth, then back out again to form a circle once more. It represents the never ending cycle of life and the many ways we interrelate as a community. This dance is likely a May Day celebration welcoming fertility and abundance to ensure a generous harvest.
This plaque shows the three stages of a woman's life and depicts the Goddess in her three aspects as Maiden, Mother and Crone. The Maiden is full of life, sensuality and potential. The Mother is creativity, fertility and bringing forth life. The Crone is the attainment of wisdom gained from experience. Some refer to them by the titles Love, Life and Wisdom.
This is a cheerful common greeting in the Neo-Pagan Community. It may be ancient and may be a relatively modern invention, it is hard to tell. Most know it from the saying: "Merry Meet, Merry Part, and Merry Meet Again!" The border around the edge holds many images of Earth Centered Spirituality - the Chalice, 2 Stags, Moon Phases and the Pentacle. May it bless your home with many Merry Meetings with good friends and family!
Venerated for centuries as nurturer, mistress of magic, and protectress, the Goddess is intimately connected with the moon. She moves us the way the tides move the waters of the ocean. Inspired by the High Priestess card of the tarot, the Moon Goddess embodies feminine wisdom. Place something precious within her arms that you wish to empower with her energy. The line around the base is from "The Charge of the Star Goddess" and reads: "I am the soul of nature who gives life to the universe."
The raven swoops silently in the night sky. Raven’s dark ominous presence, guttural croaks and unearthly sounds are synonymous with power, fate and transformation within the occult. Few animals carry the magical history or summon the instinctive visceral response of this feathered emissary. The runes spell simply “Raven.”
The Forest God sits, noble and strong, upon his dais. Within the crown of his antlered brow burns the spiritual fire of transformation, initiation and creative force. Ram headed snakes interlace themselves within the pentacle below him. The Lord's throne is supported on his right by the bull- representative of power, strength and virility. On his left is the mythic stag- an emblem of wildness, sovereignty, and the bountiful forest. His aspect as "Lord of the Dance" is displayed on the back. The dance was performed to bring fertility to the crops and to his people.
The Lunar Goddess sits on her throne, which is graced with the phases of the moon. She is crowned with the horned crescent. In her lap she cradles a scrying bowl representing receptivity, intuition and the magical womb of transformation. On her right side a rabbit looks on, her emblem of life, fertility, and beginnings. On her left the crow cries out as her messenger, symbolic of the waning years of life and the ultimate passing from this life into the next. The back of her throne depicts the Goddess in her three aspects as Maid, Mother, and Crone.
This saying is an affirmation of the truth of one’s word, not unlike the term “Amen”. Some have suggested that “mote” is a reference to the goddess Maal, the Egyptian Goddess of Truth. It has also been translated to mean basically “So must it be”.The border is a knotwork design with hidden imagery. See if you can find two stags a chalice, pentagrams and moon phases.
