The Goddess in the Gospels: Reclaiming the Sacred Feminine

In an era that has reclaimed many aspects of the feminine, Margaret Starbird's The Woman with the Alabaster Jarstands out as a courageous exploration of the scorned feminine in the Western religious tradition. But espousing the marriage between Jesus and Mary Magdalene created a personal crisis for this Catholic scholar. In The Goddess in the Gospelsthe author tells how she was guided in her ever-deepening study of the New Testament and the gematria—number coding of the Greek alphabet—by an incredible series of synchronicities that mirror the inner and outer worlds and which reveal the Sacred Marriage of male and female—the hieros gamous—leading to her own personal redemption.
