5.0 out of 5 stars Good for our Relationship
I am reading out loud some relevant passages to my partner. It is helpful to see aspects of our story reflected back to us through these archetypal figures and stories. They open a dialog that flows from the recognition that our issues are universal and we can see ourselves in the context of human family. The Ancient Greek stories have the power take us deeper because the personality traits of the gods are also to be found within ourselves. Carol's treatment and interpretation connects the dots in a way that is transformative, letting us know from within that we have the power improve ourselves individually as well as our relationship. Self knowledge breeds acceptance and confidence in our capacity to actualize our highest aspirations. This book helps us to achieve this.
5.0 out of 5 stars An empowering must-read for the modern-day heroine in each of us
In Persephone Rising, Carol Pearson adds a deeply insightful and just-right-for-the-times entry to her extensive catalog on the intersection of ancient myth and modern meaning. Through the interlocking stories of Persephone, Demeter, Zeus and Dionysus (especially Demeter’s abduction into the Underworld), Dr. Pearson sheds new light on what today’s women need to be happier, more fulfilled and more authentically alive. This wise and wonderful book is a must-read for any woman looking to claim her own power, purpose and potential in the world.

Great gift for a college grad.
5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent writing on the archetypal qualities of Persephone
Excellent writing on the archetypal qualities of Persephone, especially considering how difficult it is to find consistent information on the story that surrounds her. I also love how connections are made in the dynamics between Zeus, Demeter, Hecate and Persephone as well. Wonderful read and helped me greatly in understanding some of my own subconscious inclinations.
5.0 out of 5 stars Powerful myth, important guidance
A beautifully written exploration of the myth of Demeter-Persephone, mother-daughter. Rich and useful analysis of these archetypal energies,and how they may be lived out unconsciously in our lives, when one is gripped by that energy. Important for men as well as women. I highly recommend it.
3.0 out of 5 stars This book is just fine…
I liked it well enough to read the whole thing, but found it long-winded, a little dated and lazy in the way that the author spends multiple chapters re-telling stories from the works of others to make her point. I found it rather intellectually lazy and hollow. There are much better books out there that don’t take nearly 400 pages to make the points that others have already made.
5.0 out of 5 stars This is an incredible and inspiring book. Every woman ...
