Rites of Passage: Psychology of Female Power : A Manual for Young African-American Women, Medicine Women, Priestesses and More Mature Women of Spirit

From the author of "The Cult of Sango" comes the new book "Rites of Passage, Psychology of Female Power". Author, Iya Sangode examines and raises everyday female issues, while offering self-help techniques. Probably more important, Iya Sangode presents various potent "female psychologies" culled from the Yoruba culture of Nigeria and West Africa. Researching deeply the sacred odus (Yoruba religious scriptures), Sangode draws the readers to the esteemed role of women and their profound position in the community as well as in some of the most powerful and important Yoruba societies and cults.
