Religious beliefs of Ancient Egypt not only portrayed Isis as a gentle, womanly matron of daily life but also as the business-like, divine partner to aristocrats and rulers.
As the mother of Horus and wife of Osiris, Isis was adored and respected in a cult-like fashion during the Greco-Roman period before the rise of Christianity. She was a patron to many levels of society and led a colorful goddess life.
The goddess aspect of spirituality was not an uncommon element in religious practices prior to the onset of Christianity. Many spiritual followers, after experiencing hundreds of years of monotheistic religion, are now yearning for a return to sacred balance by honoring the Divine Feminine.
