Sophia is, in the esoteric teachings, the embodiment of Wisdom, the matrix from which God arose and God’s heavenly consort and mirror. But, as Raff explains, she suffered a fall from this exalted state. It is our task to work with imagination to reunite Sophia and God. Raff brings Sophia to life through a vivid analysis of Aurora Consurgens, as well as his personal experience with Sophia and active imagination. 2003.

The Book of Lilith
Barbara Black Koltuv.
Lilith is the mythological she-demon of the night known to many cultures. It is said that Adam’s original consort was Lilith, and she represents the first Eve, or the woman who really tempted Adam with the apple. She is many things—seductress, child-killer, evil—one of the motherless forms of the feminine Self that arose as an embodiment of the neglected and rejected aspects of the Great Goddess. Lilith is an archetypal part of the self, and this book helps us reconnect with this powerful energy to transform it and ourselves. Illustrations. 1986. • 224 pp. • ISBN 0-89254-014-1 • Paper, $12.95
