A priest in the modern day, Egyptian-based Church of the Eternal Source advises, "Cultivate an Egyptian frame of mind and schedule celebrations according to the magic of your own locality." In this light, author Normandi Ellis has constructed a reader-friendly guide to the Egyptian goddess mysteries, that we might develop our own celebrations of the sacred events that bless our lives. Referring to herself as an "Episcopagan," Ellis believes commemorating the divinity inherent in everyday happenings is something sorely missing from modern life. A renowned expert in Egyptology, Ellis attempts to fill this gap by demonstrating what the ancients celebrated as sacred, thereby helping us to bring the divine home again. Each of the 50 festivals is prefaced with a list of suggestions of occurrences we could celebrate, and suffixed with ways we might celebrate them. This book is a lovely and loving introduction to one of the more fascinating ancient spiritual traditions, replete with sparkling relevance for today's spiritual seeker. --P. Randall Cohan
