The Path of the Empress The Feminine Power of Transformation. Die englische Übersetzung von dem Bestseller "Der Weg der Kaiserin", von Christine Li und Ulja Krautwald. In der Übersetzung von Mary Adams. Gebundene Ausgabe, 220 Seiten. The path of the empress is a book for Empresses. Empresses choose their own path, so the book contains no ready answers or sure-fire tips. The ten chapters reflect ten important stages of development in a woman's life, with their typical challenges and life-tasks. Exercises and magical herbal elixirs will help open up the mind and soul to new insights and solutions. But the book begins to take effect even as it's being read, without the reader having to do very much about it. In the same way large portions of the book virtually took shape with almost no help from us. We simply held our knowledge and experience at the ready, like a set of tools, and pooled our thoughts. In a mysterious way we then began to encounter people and situations that shed light on our theme. The Chinese call this Wu Wei, when the Unknown moves of its own accord. This is how this book came about. This is how the words of the Empress came to us. Over a thousand years ago the concubine Wu Zhao set out on the fairy-tale journey to become China's most powerful woman. Her intelligence and erotic aura, combined with the strategies of Chinese art of war, paved the way for her to become Empress. She was the only woman who ever officially ruled ancient China. Her faithful adviser was the wise shaman and doctor, Sun Simiao, guardian of the age- old secrets of feminine wisdom and power.
