Patterns of primordial origin reside deeply within our psyches at an unconscious level. Religion and its scriptures have not given women's stories told through their voices prominence, and theology has not taken into account the nature of women as spiritual beings. The secular and religious histories of women generally, herstory, and personal life stories affect who women are and how they relate to each other. Ties That Bond is a feminist study that searches for the nature of connections that exist and function among women who share genealogies--daughters, mothers, grandmothers. Family systems and relationships can be fragile, but also indestructible. Groups of people who are tied to each other by strong emotional bonds can invigorate or hurt, embrace or ignore, nurture or demean each other. The women in this book find many ways to bring wholeness and security to their families, and they tend carefully their roles in their family systems. Inherent in this work is the passion to have the voices of all generations of women heard, but especially the voice of the oldest women in the genealogy, that of the grandmother-crone.
