Circle of Thirteen

Images and Poems to Celebrate the Wisdom of The Grandmothers

Carolyn Hillyer

The poems and images describe the circle of thirteen grandmothers, each one of whom hold a key to an aspect of our inner landscape: collecting the fragments of ancient memory, resonating with earth rhythms, pushing to the wild edges. Woman as warrior, guardian, creator, mystic and myth keeper.
