"I AM THE CRADLE OF HUMANITY . . . WITHOUT ME THERE WOULD BE NO TOMORROW . . . NO FUTURE GENERATIONS. HUMAN BEINGS WOULD BE EXTINCT. SAFEGUARD THE CHALICE OF THE DIVINE FEMININE WHICH GUARANTEES THAT HUMANS WILL FULFILL THE DESTINY AND PURPOSE OF MOTHER EARTH," so stated my womb. The Wounded Chalice is about honoring the Divinity of the Womb, the instrument fashioned by God to procreate human beings on this planet. It is the story of every woman, the holder of the most precious temple and the Ark of the Covenant between God and humans. Women have within their bodies an ark that holds the most precious of gifts, the Secret of Life. That is why Mary Grace insisted that her uterus be returned to her after its removal from her body. Without this unique temple the human race would cease to exist.   Follow Mary Grace along her path as she finds her voice and courage after feeling dominated by the patriarchy of our society. It is time for all women to honor their femininity and role on this planet Earth. Women are born healers who must begin by healing themselves. Depression is rampant among the nurturers of life because women are not aware of their special gifts.
