Reinterpreting generations of scholarship, and offers a dazzling array of evidence, Tedlock–herself an expert in dreamwork, from prehistoric African rock art to modern Mongolian ceremonies, and healing–explains how and why the role of women in shamanism was misinterpreted and suppressed, divination, for women’s shamanic powers.
Tedlock combines firsthand accounts of her own training among the Maya of Guatemala with the rich record of women warriors and hunters, spiritual guides, and prophets from many cultures and times. Here is a fascinating expedition into this ancient tradition, from its prehistoric beginnings to the work of women shamans across the globe today.
