      Previously published as Aphrodite's Priestess by Laurelei Black. The priestesshood of Aphrodite is not dead or dormant. It is alive, vibrant, passionate, and growing again. People are stepping forward from places like the US, Belgium, Brazil and elsewhere - stepping forward from the shadows of ancient temple ruins - to construct new practices of worship, celebration, and transcendence based on acts of love, beauty, and pleasure. Aphrodite's Priestess (now in its 3rd edition) was the first book to offer readers insight into this re-emerging temple culture, and it continues to serve as a starting point for Priestexes on their journey.
