"A clear introduction to the spirituality, beliefs, rituals, and gods and goddesses of the Greek Pantheon from a modern practitioner. Rather than presenting the gods and goddesses as symbolic, lifeless figures one can use to embellish spiritual practice, this book teaches readers how to find each god or goddess within themselves"--

A clear introduction to the spirituality, beliefs, rituals, and gods and goddesses of the Greek pantheon from a modern practitioner.

Secrets of Greek Mysticism is the first spiritual book about the Greek gods and goddesses written by a native, practising priest of Hellenic Polytheism. It goes beyond the simplistic and archetypical representation of the Greek pantheon and instead introduces the gods and goddesses from a theological perspective.

Secrets of Greek Mysticism teaches readers how to find each god or goddess within them. This is achieved through grounded insights on the gods' virtues as they relate to modern life (i.e., practising bravery with Ares, cultivating endurance with Demeter, and embodying love with Aphrodite), explaining the deeper spiritual meaning of popular myths, practising guided meditations, activating the gods' energies with mantras and hymns, and performing simple rituals.

In helping readers build a spiritual connection with the gods and goddesses, Secrets of Greek Mysticism reveals the beginnings of the practice as well as practices for everyday life:

  • The twelve gods' birth stories, essences, and virtues
  • The foundation of ancient Greek spirituality, cosmology, and theology
  • How to live and work with the gods on a daily basis
  • Setting up altars
  • Symbols, hymns, and meditations to guide readers' practice of connecting with the gods

Secrets of Greek Mysticism also makes the claim that for the Divine Feminine to rise, the Divine Masculine needs to rise, too. Rather than solely focusing on female goddesses, it brings together the male and female deities of the Greek pantheon to help readers experience divine union.

Secrets of Greek Mysticism is a rare gem that marries scholarly wisdom with practical spirituality. George's insightful approach unveils the gods' profound essence, offering readers a transformative road map to inner growth and connection. This book is an invitation to weave the divine into our daily lives. - Sophie Bashford, intuitive and bestselling author of You Are a Goddess
