Book Review<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Pagan Portals: Rhiannon, Divine Queen of the Celtic Britons <\/span><\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

by Jhenah Telyndru<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

There is knowledge, and there is wisdom; one comes from the mind and the other from the heart and soul. Jhenah Telyndru has both of these in abundance.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

As the founder and Morgen of the Sisterhood of Avalon, Ms. Telyndru’s love for her subject comes through in every page and word.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

With a Bachelor’s degree in Archeology and a Master’s in Celtic Studies, her knowledge has been attained through years of study.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

“Rhiannon” is well-researched via many avenues, i.e. etymology, story-telling, mythology and literature. Rhiannon’s connections to other Goddesses such as Epona, Morrigan and the Matronae (Divine Mothers) is explained in the earlier parts of the book. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

While Rhiannon, herself, is not identified as a Goddess in history, this does not stop many women from around the world from <\/span>worshiping<\/span> her as such, and the whys and hows of her divinity and sovereignty are explored within the pages of this wonderful book. Ms. Telyndru draws in each reader as she shares her own insight and wisdom, and helps us to more fully come to know Rhiannon.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

For those who know nothing of Rhiannon, this is the perfect introduction. To those who know of her and yearn to learn more, this book is a stepping-stone to knowing her more fully and deeply, how to understand her and use her stories on our own journey to Sovereignty. We can begin to learn how to build and deepen our own relationship with her, through the use of shrines, altars, offerings, her symbols and meditative trance journeys. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Allow Jhenah Telyndru to guide you in your journey to Rhiannon.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

(Disclaimer: While it in no way deters from my recommendation of this book to all, it bears mentioning that I am proud to be a member of The Sisterhood of Avalon \u2013 SM)<\/span><\/i><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/i><\/p>\n
