A modern trilogy that traverses the rocky and often treacherous terrain of the human psyche. In this Epic work, three Goddesses emerge from the underworld to aid in an autobiographical search for universal and personal truth. Lowquesha, Medina, and Devina represent the new holy trinity, building upon the ancient trinity of Maiden, Mother, and Crone. Within each story, each goddess is charged with the task of posing a question and clearing the path for an authentic exploration of that question. As part of her guiding nature, the Goddess(es) will point to the universal aspect of this exploration, and it is my task to extrapolate her universal observations and experiences into my own personal and biographical observations and experience. The "mediations" represent my dialogue with the underworld, and my personal mission in this work is to learn how to listen, to learn how to give voice to things that don't often get said out loud; things that words cannot readily convey; things that get lodged in pride, fear, and normal reasoning. Meditations with the Goddess will seek to find a way to move that which is deeply personal and private to the realm of that which is human and therefore deeply personal.- (Rha Goddess)
