Book excerpt: From the realms of consciousness studies and the shamanic, from pre-history, myth and religion, from shakta tantric India - out of our psyches her archetypal power calls. Journey along with one western woman who heeds the call of the dark goddess Kali Ma. Follow her path in research and dreams, meditations and breathwork. Jump into the void, the chaos, the black night of the cosmos- as she is challenged to claim the fierceness, ecstasy, and oneness of the dark goddess - the birthright of all women.
