Jennifer Hughes’s placenta was delivered ten minutes after her first child, just before midnight on March 31. It was on the large side, with a liverish texture and a bluish tinge; it measured nine inches in diameter and weighed a pound and a half.

Goddess of the Blood of Life, Part One

In a series of articles for Metaformia, Judy Grahn Ph.D. explores what seems to be a pressing question in Women’s Spirituality circles, with implications for women and gender relations overall. That is the two part question of what the relation is between the goddess and menstruation, and why the goddess was or is considered “bloodthirsty.” By “goddess” I mean various female deities in a number of traditions, both historic and contemporary. And by “bloodthirsty” I mean the innumerable accounts from both antiquity and contemporary practices of goddesses in particular needing to be propitiated with blood sacrifice.
