When the world was young, the soul was not at enmity with the flesh. Jungian analyst Nancy Qualls-Corbett recreates the image of a priestess who performed an act of love with a stranger in the face of the goddess. This sacred marriage marked the union of a deity with a mortal. In modern times, the connection between spirituality and sensuality has been lost. Hence the dissatisfaction in the couple and the decline of the woman’s vitality. The author shows how to restore this connection.

The original uses the English word sacred — sacred, sacred. The word «saint» in the Russian linguistic consciousness is too closely connected with Christianity, so that its use in relation to the pagan world does not cause linguistic discomfort.
