Aphrodite's Secrets: Dressing Up for Getting Down and Other Ways to Unleash Your Inner Sex Goddess

Love Goddess! What does that phrase evoke in you? If it makes you feel powerful and passionate, you probably already know all about your inner Love Goddess. If not, you may need some magical help to awaken a part of you that has been sleeping too long. In this gift book, Aphrodite, the Goddess of Love and Beauty, shares her love secrets with women of today. According to mythology, Aphrodite had a "cestus" - a magic belt that made her charms irresistible to any man, god or mortal. She would lend the belt to women if they needed a boost of extra magic to entice a beloved. Dressing up can help bring a little of Aphrodite's love magic to the bedroom. As the book suggests, you can decorate your undies to make a modern cestus (Ancient Greek for "hot pants"); use ritual to heighten your own mood, excite a lover, or turn you both on; and add a playful twist to intimate encounters with sensuous delights involving food, dance and body paint.
