This was very informative. I didn’t really know what the term creatrix was until I read this.

Thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for the eGalley. All opinions are my own.

While reading this book, I learned that the term Creatrix is not new. However, it was new to me. Raffelock briefly addresses the history of this female archetype while weaving in her own story of her transition to the creative phase of her life. Her story is full of women and men who have had an impact on her life in some way. Raffelock does not gloss over the non-flattering episodes of her growth and accepts full responsibility for where she messed up. She follows each chapter with a "For Reflection, Activity, and Journaling" section that prompts the reader to look deeper into herself on the topic in each section. I will be purchasing a physical copy for myself and one for my library. Highly recommended.

I received a copy of this book for a fair and honest review. This book was broken up into four different sections. I was excited that the archetype of the crone was replaces with Creatrix. I got the impression this was all about women's empowerment and the coming together of women. That they are no longer remaining silence but using their voices for the betterment of the world. This just made me feel good as a woman. It did give me the feeling that this is only the start of a journey like this one. It makes me want to look into archetypes and more on this subject.
