A lilting, lyrical journey into the self, Woman of the Elements sings of the elements of Air, Water, Fire and Earth within each woman. The book starts with the Song of the Woman of the Air, who sings out the different aspects of air that exist within her. This section is followed by the Songs of the women of Water, Fire and Earth. The book culminates with the Song of the Goddess, wherein the Goddess urges every woman, “Do you know the joy of what you are? Know yourself and you have not need for any other knowledge. Know yourself not and there is use not for knowledge at all. You are what links the earth to the heavens, You are the song that the gods themselves sing.

Earth. Woman of the Earth I am…
