Women Who Run With The Wolves by Clarissa Pinkola Estes

Product Details

About the Book

Within every woman there lives a powerful force, filled with good instincts, passionate creativity, and ageless knowing. She is the Wild Woman, who represents the instinctual nature of women. But she is an endangered species — for though the gifts of wildish nature belong to us at birth, society's attempt to "civilize" women into rigid roles has muffled the deep, life-giving messages of our own souls. In Women Who Run With the Wolves, Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estés unfolds rich intercultural myths, fairy tales, folk tales, and stories, many drawn from her own traditions, to help women reconnect with the fierce, healthy, visionary attributes of this instinctual nature.

Through stories and psychological commentary — including the tale of La Loba, the Bone Woman who sings the bones of wolves back to life — Estés illuminates how women can work with the Wild Woman archetype to access power, growth, and fulfillment, examining the forces that stand in the way of female self-awareness and the necessary cycles of life, death, and rebirth. Blending psychology, spirituality, and folklore, the book invites readers to retrieve, examine, love, and understand the Wild Woman within, and to hold her against their deep psyches as one who is both magic and medicine.
