M. Kelley Hunter, Ph.D., has avidly studied the stars as astrologer, mythologist and stargazer since the 1960s. Studies in depth psychology, cosmology, holistic modalities, unified field physics, spirituality and consciousness, as well as 1001 nights (or more) of stargazing have enriched her teaching and consultation work. She enjoys the creative process through drama, visual arts, poetry, movement and experiential learning. This led to her most recent publication, PLANETARY GODS AND GODDESSES COLORING BOOK.

A longtime writer, she authored LIVING LILITH: FOUR DIMENSIONS OF THE COSMIC FEMININE and BLACK MOON LILITH (see book list on this page). A member of the Goddess Scholars online network, Kelley contributed to Patricia Monaghan's 3-volume anthology, Goddesses in World Culture. Her articles have appeared in numerous magazines, including The Mountain Astrologer and The International Astrologer as well as online. She sends out her own COSMIC NEWS blog on New and Full Moons, via email, Facebook and on her website.

An internationally-respected astrologer, Dr. Kelley has lectured and presented workshops around the U.S., Canada, in western and eastern Europe, Turkey, and the Caribbean. She is very interested in the realignment of astronomy and astrology. Until the 16th century, these now-separate fields were a combined discipline. The science of Astronomy develops our technical understanding of the movements of the planets and our place in the larger cosmos, continually making new and exciting discoveries. Through its long history, the science and art of Astrology has developed sophisticated methods to interpret these cycles in relation to our lives on Earth. As written in the Bible, "There is a time to every purpose under Heaven."

In our twenty-first century renaissance, renewed interest in the goddess has brought many faces of the divine feminine into modern awareness. Lilith is one of the most alluring - and ancient. After five thousand years of smoky rumours, this female of ambiguous reputation remains a mystery. As seductive femme fatale, crib death hag or cosmic goddess, vampire or beacon of female integrity, she has continued to excite our cultural imagination. If we follow her trail back in time to seek the source of the fear and negativity she typically evokes, we often discover, not only a major shift in the collective human image of the feminine, but also something essential that needs to be redeemed in our personal lives. Living Lilith traces this powerful archetype through mythology, the arts, astrology, on the world stage and in real life. Of increasing interest to astrologers, Lilith is the name given to four astronomical points - an asteroid, a star, a dark "ghost" moon, and the better-known Black Moon. All four Liliths are discussed and differentiated with the aid of numerous case histories and fascinating insights into the lives of public figures. A section of suggested interpretations of Lilith's influence through the signs is included. This book is suitable for all levels of astrology, and anyone interested in the presence of Lilith in our lives today. Not everyone is ready to explore such profoundly unknown dimensions of self and experience. Is she calling to you?
