Isis has a history spanning millennia and an influence stretching across land and sea. She is a Goddess who transcends time and geography, remaining one of the most popular Goddesses from the ancient world to this day. The book explores Isis' mythic journey and how she became the Goddess we recognise today. Striking a balance between the old and the new, Pagan Portals - Isis provides an historical account of her mythology and worship alongside modern Pagan perspectives and offers the reader tools for Isis' contemporary veneration.

Church lays out the basic mythology of the Goddess; her roles as magician, healer, savior, warrior, and mother; her association with other Egyptian Goddesses; the expansion of her worship across the Graeco-Roman world; her temples and cult centers; the festivals and rituals in her honor; and the role of magic and prayer in her worship. A terrific introduction to this ancient and popular Goddess. #goddess #paganism #isis #mythology
