Goddesses Knowledge Cards

Forty-eight goddesses from Greek, Roman, Celtic, Native American, Egyptian, Middle Eastern, and Scandinavian mythologies—among others—are gathered in this deck of Knowledge Cards to enhance our understanding of the role of the feminine deity from ancient history to the present day. In learning about goddesses from different cultures, we can recognize these archetypes as parts of ourselves, allowing us a clearer vision of our strengths and weaknesses and giving us a common thread, a link to the collective unconscious. Susan Seddon Boulet’s magnificent goddess paintings have long been favored by mythologists and art lovers alike, and with Michael Babcock’s insightful text, they offer a brilliant vision of the worldwide pantheon of goddesses.

Susan Seddon Boulet

As a child, Susan Seddon Boulet (American, b. Brazil, 1941–1997) drew the animals on her family’s farm while listening to folktales told by her father. From these simple roots, creating art became central to her life. She developed a unique style, an inspired vision suffused with detail, texture, and color. Boulet’s artwork reflects her innermost journey as well, with emphasis on her study of world spiritual traditions. Even as she explored the darker aspects of the psyche in her work and began her long struggle with cancer, she retained the energy, honesty, and warmth that endeared her to so many. In the decades since Boulet’s death, her artwork has continued to move and inspire people the world over.
