Planetary Gods and Goddesses Coloring Book: Astronomy and Myths of Our New Solar System (2016) by M. Kelley Hunter
Have fun coloring astronomical gods and goddesses from the Sun out to remote Sedna and undiscovered Planet 9. Astronomers are discovering more and more planetoids in the far reaches of our solar system. These new distant neighbors are being named for lesser-known gods and goddesses from around the world. Most familiar planets have names from Greek and Roman mythology. New ones are from Hawai'i, India and Lithuania, from the Intuit, Etruscan, Rapa Nui, Tongva, Wayu'u and Iroquois peoples, and even from J.R.R. Tolkien's pre-history of Middle Earth before the hobbits. Many are indigenous creator gods. We need to know about them! This book contains 28 engaging, original coloring pages of mythic images that convey a sense of the culture they come from. Text pages introduce their story lines. A global map shows their geographical origins. Sky maps and tables give updated astronomical information on our new solar system.
Black Moon Lilith (2010) by M. Kelley Hunter
Named for an ancient female figure of primordial mystery, Black Moon Lilith is an astronomical point intimately connected to the Earth-Moon system. In these times of expanding ecological and cosmological awareness, the Black Moon offers a spacious field of investigation engaging women and men in fuller self-awareness and soul expression in life, urging us inexorably to a deeper embodiment of Heaven on Earth. Of increasing interest to astrologers, the Black Moon has been used for decades in Europe, but there is little written in English about this enigmatic female figure and subtle astronomical point. This book, an expanded version of an earlier, shorter work, helps fills that gap.The author blends astronomy, myth, depth psychology and original creative research into her investigation of the Black Moon. Basic, suggestive interpretations are offered, supported by examples of well-known personages. Read it and consider for yourself a question that has haunted and taunted humanity for four thousand years: is she demonic or divine? Lilith offers no easy answers.
Living Lilith: Four Dimensions of the Cosmic Feminine (2009) by M. Kelley Hunter
In our twenty-first century renaissance, renewed interest in the goddess has brought many faces of the divine feminine into modern awareness. Lilith is one of the most alluring - and ancient. After five thousand years of smoky rumours, this female of ambiguous reputation remains a mystery. As seductive femme fatale, crib death hag or cosmic goddess, vampire or beacon of female integrity, she has continued to excite our cultural imagination. If we follow her trail back in time to seek the source of the fear and negativity she typically evokes, we often discover, not only a major shift in the collective human image of the feminine, but also something essential that needs to be redeemed in our personal lives. Living Lilith traces this powerful archetype through mythology, the arts, astrology, on the world stage and in real life. Of increasing interest to astrologers, Lilith is the name given to four astronomical points - an asteroid, a star, a dark "ghost" moon, and the better-known Black Moon. All four Liliths are discussed and differentiated with the aid of numerous case histories and fascinating insights into the lives of public figures. A section of suggested interpretations of Lilith's influence through the signs is included. This book is suitable for all levels of astrology, and anyone interested in the presence of Lilith in our lives today. Not everyone is ready to explore such profoundly unknown dimensions of self and experience. Is she calling to you?
