Triple Goddess

CA$133.00

Edited by Jack Grayle

Triple Goddess explores the ancient, multifaceted power of the Mother–Maiden–Monster through mythology, folklore, esotericism, and modern scholarship. Featuring original works by leading occult authors, this beautifully crafted edition offers a sweeping journey into the divine feminine’s most enduring and enigmatic expressions.

This compendium is a sweeping, cross-disciplinary anthology exploring one of humanity’s oldest, most powerful, and most haunting archetypes: the Mother–Maiden–Monster. Drawing from ancient myth, folklore, esoteric philosophy, literary analysis, ritual practice, and lived gnosis, this collection traces the many faces of the Triple Goddess across cultures, centuries, and spiritual traditions. From the spinning rooms of early European fairy tales to the necromantic chambers of the ancient world, from the Alpine storms of Perchta to the mystic poetry of Robert Graves, this anthology reveals the Goddess not as a symbol—but as a primordial force still weaving her way through the human psyche.

Across essays, myths, historical studies, and philosophical meditations, the contributors illuminate the deeper patterning of Triplism: the pervasive, often-forgotten worldview in which the number three forms the root-structure of fate, magic, and meaning. Here, readers encounter the Moirai and Norns who spin and sever the threads of life; the folk figures—Holle, Holda, Perchta—who bless the industrious and punish the idle; and the esoteric feminine powers hidden in Gnosticism, ritual sexuality, and the symbolic language of ancient rites. The anthology also dives into Robert Graves’ transformative vision of the Muse and the White Goddess, revealing how the triple feminine inspired some of the most enduring poetry in the Western canon.

Yet this collection is far more than an academic compilation. It is a living text—immersive, visceral, and often unsettling. Its pages pulse with the rhythm of ritual unfolding from stillness into rupture; with the hum of spinning wheels echoing ancestral memory; with stormwinds, oracles, and the ecstatic terror of encountering divinity in its most ungovernable form. Each piece builds toward a deeper understanding of fate, magic, embodiment, and the metaphysical “third factor” through which the uncanny enters the world.

Whether you come to this anthology for mythology, occult studies, women’s mysteries, folklore, ritual praxis, or poetic inspiration,Triple Goddess offers a comprehensive, beautifully interwoven vision of the ancient feminine power that stands at the crossroads of birth, death, and transformation. Dense with scholarship and rich with enchantment, it is a landmark volume—one that restores the long-buried roots of the Triple Goddess to their full intensity, complexity, and sacred ferocity.

This is not merely a book about the Goddess.
It is a book that invokes her.
