 WELCOME TO GODDESS CARDS! Happy Mothers' Day! The public celebration of personal mothers is a recent phenomenon. In ancient times, the Great Mother was a goddess, not a mortal woman. She was the focus of private worship and state-sponsored festivals honoring her in almost every culture on Earth. Much later, in the early 20th century, peace and social justice advocates fought for a day of recognition for anti-war activists and suffragettes, who dedicated themselves to peace and women’s rights. Mothers’ Day became an official, politically inspired holiday with an urgent social agenda. That activist strand continues today. At the heart of Mothers’ Day, however, is The Mother. She presents in at least three different phases. First, as a gorgeous young woman, radiant with her first pregnancy. Next, a seasoned mother, raising her chicks. Finally, a grandmother, transferring her wisdom to the next generation. All honor and glory to mothers everywhere! They, and the children they cherish, are the hope of the world. *********************************** Have you been looking for goddess cards that delight, inspire and empower women?
