This fascinating guide to the history and mythology of woman-related symbols features: Unique organization by shape of symbol or type of sacred object 21 different sections including Round and Oval Motifs, Sacred Objects, Secular-Sacred Objects, Rituals, Deities' Signs, Supernaturals, Body Parts, Nature, Birds, Plants, Minerals, Stones and Shells, and more Introductory essays for each section 753 entries and 636 illustrations Alphabetical index for easy reference Three-Rayed Sun The sun suspended in heaven by three powers, perhaps the Triple Goddess who gave birth to it (see Three-Way Motifs). Corn Dolly An embodiment of the harvest to be set in the center of the harvest dance, or fed to the cattle to `make them thrive year round' (see Secular-Sacred Objects). Tongue In Asia, the extended tongue was a sign of life-force as the tongue between the lips imitated the sacred lingam-yoni: male within female genital. Sticking out the tongue is still a polite sign of greeting in northern India and Tibet (see Body Parts). Cosmic Egg In ancient times the primeval universe-or the Great Mother-took the form of an egg. It carried all numbers and letters within an ellipse, to show that everything is contained within one form at the beginning (see Round and Oval Motifs).

Best dish detergent ever!
This is the best dish washing detergent we have purchased. The last one did not foam for long and in a cold kitchen turned solid. This one lasts for a good while and retains its fluid flow. It also smells very nice.

Great, light product.
I really love that this product is from an ancient recipe from JR Watkins. Not heavy and soapy, I have sprayers that I use to spray those items that need a quick wash. From plant-derived liquids, this stuff removes any food products as well as any heavy liquid detergent I have ever used. Been using it for several years now and see no reason to stop.

My Favorite
I've been using this dish detergent for months. I just love it. The light fresh lemon scent and the fact that it does not give you dish-pan hands like those name brand grease cutting detergents. You have to spray more of this on a greasy surface and wash 2, maybe 3x depending on the surface, but it will cut grease. Love the spray bottle too. If the sprayer gets wonky I've found that if I remove the white screen from the sprayer nozzle it works better.

Works well at removing grime
My mother-in-law convinced me to start using the Dawn version of this, which has been a game-changer with the dishes. When I saw this product for less money, I decided to try it and it works just as well. Smells nice, cute on the counter, and cuts through the toughest of grease and grime.
