        FRIENDS AND REVIEWERS COMMENT

"So much more than an autobiography, this book offers a map to the inner world where we must all ultimately go if we wish to discover our own truths and the guidance that transcends them.  Through sharing her own journey inward, the author unveils what is universal, a larger truth we can all embrace."  ~ Hal Zina Bennett, author of The Lens of Perception: A Users Guide to Higher Consciousness

"Jo Garceau's life experience traverses the full spectrum of possibility from the deepest personal spiritual quest to the most practical business and householder life, all grounded on the ideal of service.  Her revelation of the emerging new feminine paradigm arises now at the Turning Point of the Ages.  I'm honored to have Jo Garceau in the inner circle of the Shamanic Astrology Mystery School."  ~ Daniel Giamario, developer of the Shamanic Astrology paradigm

                 
"Women live in a different world today because of the author and her pioneering work in 'women's rights', as well as in her spiritual quest.  A must read."  ~        Ralph Munro, Secretary of State, Washington State

        
"If we are instruments of God, then Jo Garceau's work is an orchestra. Readers, regardless of where they are on their spiritual journey, will find this book enlightening and very informational. It's a must read for anyone on their personal quest. Two more words...life changing".          ~ Jeff Elkins, Sound Therapist/healer/photo-journalist


"A fascinating account of a woman's courageous journey to self knowledge"   ~ Janet D'Urso, author of 'The Social Construction of Woman", Melbourne, Australia


"In these times of deep division, Jo Garceau offers a path toward wholeness.  Hers is a remarkable pilgrimage, both feminist and spiritual, of learning to integrate her self with the world." ~Joanne Mulcahy, Northwest Writing Institute, Lewis and Clark College; author of Birth and Rebirth on An Alaskan Island


"...Wonderfully expressive writing style!  Great color and creativity.  ...Makes me want to read more. Vivid." ~Fred Rozendal, psychotherapist, San Francisco


"A thoughtful, stimulating account of the inner workings of a dynamic state office and very popular governor, from the viewpoint of an insightful administrator, this is an important account of a very critical period in Washington state history. It would be a valuable read for anyone planning a public service career. The spiritual side, often neglected by other comparable writers, provides a true bonus."    ~Roger Meyer MD Clinical Professor of Pediatrics and Public Health, University of Washington; President, Child and Family Health Foundation.

"I have known Jo Garceau for over 38 years.  She has been an asset in developing wisdom and clarity. Her book will be a welcomed addition to understanding how we can better relate to God and each other."  ~Paul R Meyer, Seattle King County Ombudsman

"If you have a room of your own, go there and read Knowing Woman.  If you don't yet have such a place, find a quiet public location and read this book, then set out to create conditions in your life to tell your story in your own way by the light of this one."        ~Kim Stafford, author of The Muses Among Us

"I thought it was an incredibly wonderful afternoon.  I really enjoyed watching/listening to your readings.  You really touched every person who listened to you.  You empowered them if that is what they needed, others you gave courage, still others you gave strength to look within....people fought tears because what you said/wrote touched a chord deep within them..."  ~Heidi Morgan, guest at the first book reading

" I have read your book and have found it to be not only a most fascinating story, but a must read, ..... of value to women and men alike.  I AWOKE THIS MORNING feeling as though my mind had been cleansed of  unnecessary thought and worry, I now have a greater awareness of all that surrounds me and I  thank you for that."...Marvin Burgy, Gearhart,Or.
        A BRIEF DESCRIPTION 

You are gifted--but not for yourself.  You must help millions of people." Jo Mills Garceau was eight years old when she received this message from her inner soul. Growing up a child of convention, she became a prominent 1970's feminist politician, then found transcendence in spiritual community, and embraced the Divine Feminine.  Awareness came slowly-a spiral journey toward self-understanding, driven by an inner knowing, nurtured by tiny, seemingly insignificant, but ultimately life-changing decisions.

During her search, Garceau's soul guided her, and she discusses how in Knowing Woman--signs in nature, synchronicities, visions, meditations, speaking in tongues, kundalini, dreams, astrology, and more. These soul messages, in whatever form, are the heart and truth of who we are. In Knowing Woman, Garceau not only details her spiritual journey, a life of emergence from patriarchal society to embrace the feminine, she encourages each of us to become aware of our higher self and our soul, and to be inspired to make our own personal journey. 

Part One is a spiritual/political memoir.  Part Two, Metaphysics for the Knowing Woman, and Part Three, a Workbook for the Soul, expand upon the spiritual concepts the author encountered during her life.  Simple ways to meditate along with journaling/discussion questions for personal/group work are presented.
