Goddess At Home, Book Review

As the editor of the Folklore and Mythology site at BellaOnline, I love to research, read, and write about the great goddesses of ancient mythology. I have always wanted to have at least one room in my home looking like a goddess would enjoy lounging there. I found the perfect book to help me with this. GODDESS AT HOME, by A. Bronwyn Llewellyn, is the beautifully illustrated book I found and have so enjoyed -- it is an inspiration for my dream room.

Llewellyn has given us the secrets to invoking the Greek goddesses in our homes. The beauty and grace of your favorite goddess can be a divinely empowering part of your life.

Provide your guests with an enchanting and beautiful impression of you and your home by invoking the beauty of a goddess in your entry hall. When one walks through this beauty you provided, all cares will be left behind as they luxuriate in your world of beauty and grace.

Turn your bedroom, bathroom, living, or any other room (or your whole house), into your own special haven of beauty. Llewellyn provides room by room and goddess by goddess exactly how to bring out the goddess in you and reflect that in your home. The photographs are beyond description and will help you to design and enhance your dream room.

The divine interior look of the rooms in Goddess At Home have been inspired by Aphrodite, Artemis, Athena, Demeter, Hera, Hestia, and Persephone.

Each one of these goddesses has their own attributes and unique beauty. In her introduction, Llewellyn notes that we can welcome every aspect of our favorite goddess into our home, just as the Greeks did in their lives.

Can you imagine drifting off to slumber in a bedroom that surrounds you in beauty and the divine aspects of Aphrodite? She is the goddess of love, passion, and beauty.

How about sitting in your living room that invokes the pure and primitive femininity of Artemis, goddess of the hunt, nature, and independence?

Athena in your office can invoke wisdom, civilization and the arts in useful and practical ways.

Bring Persephone and her attributes into your garden or shrine, your private room to relax in. A place where you can meditate, nap, or read in peace and drift away from the stress of daily life.

A. Bronwyn Llewellyn will help you design your home to give you that special feeling and to invoke the goddess in you.
