Ancient Spirituality for the Modern World

​

The myths of ancient Crete, her people, and their deities twine through our hearts and minds like the snakes around the famous figurine’s arms. They call to us across the millennia, asking us to remember the beauty of Minoan spirituality, born from a culture of partnership and inclusion. In answer to that call, Ariadne’s Thread provides a deepening modern connection with the family of Minoan deities, the loving Mothers and their children who invite us to live and worship with reverent joy.

​

Explore the history, the culture, and most of all, the profound spirituality of these fascinating people and their family of deities as we know them in Ariadne’s Tribe. Then invite the deities into your sacred space with seasonal rituals and rites of passage. And let them inspire and transform your ways of thinking, worshiping, and being in the modern world.

The ruined temples of ancient Crete may crumble along the coastline of this tiny island, but Ariadne’s thread still leads us deep  into the labyrinth and safely back out again.

The book is divided into three sections:

- A short history of Crete, her people, and her ancient spiritual traditions

- A year's worth of seasonal rituals

- A lifetime's worth of rites of passage, from birth to death and beyond

Ariadne's thread reaches across the millennia to connect us with the divine. Will you follow where it leads?
