Holy Spirit Rising: The Vital Return of Our Divine Mother for the Healing of Our Planet Hardcover – May 7, 2024
Purchase options and add-ons
At the beginning, humanity had a Divine Mother and God had a wife. We were made in their image. Scholars have uncovered evidence that long ago scribes altered the gender of our Mother Holy Spirit through redactions to the Bible, entirely changing our perception of God, each other, and the world! With our Divine Mother's erasure, everything associated with the feminine became somehow less than, including women, qualities such as heart-centered wisdom, as well as nature, and the world lost its healthy yin and yang balance.
Holy Spirit Rising explores how these redactions happened, how it has impacted humanity and our planet for thousands of years, and what can be done. Because we now stand at a pivotal time in history, where the earth faces great challenges. We have lost our understanding that the Cosmos is alive with a soul and that the Holy Spirit is the sacred web that permeates everything. For a wiser more conscious, loving humanity and the healing of our planet, nothing is more vital than our Mother's return.
Reviews
Author Sylvia Binsfeld asserts that the path to healing both people and planet lies in understanding the divine feminine. The Holy Spirit, the teacher, healer, comforter, and message-giver, is the benevolent maternal presence that illuminates the value of every person, and of all creation.
Holy Spirit Rising will surprise, inform and challenge some long-held assumptions. Ultimately, it is a work of abiding love, and unending hope."
--Reverend, Dr. Craig Atwood, the Charles D. Couch Chair of Moravian Theology, Director of the Center of Moravian Studies
"Sylvia Binsfeld has written a powerful manifesto to the human race, calling out for our spiritual awareness and change on both an individual and global level. If we are ever to regain the health of our planet and assure our children of a bright and beautiful future, then balance must be restored. With love, compassion and wisdom, Binsfeld gives us a radiant light to direct our path during challenging times."
--Kathryn Otoshi, award-winning author and illustrator, and speaker. Creator of the character-building book series for the young.
"This book exposes the damage done by obscuring the feminine aspect of God in faith, culture, economy, politics and the environment...This distortion has warped the way society conducts itself; violence, loss of rights, war, poverty, the extinction of many species, and environmental disaster are the results.
Acknowledging the feminine nature of the Holy Spirit opens us to the beauty, compassion and grace evident throughout the creation."
--Kate Tsubata, Journalist, activist and filmmaker, Dancing Joy

Images in this review - Reviewed in the United States on August 29, 2024I received a complimentary copy of Hold Spirit Rising from the author, who I've known and respected professionally for many years. Her book blows my mind and confirms so many of the things I've wondered about. I especially like the 25 pages of resources at the end, which--like a treasure map--point me in new directions for expanding my understanding of God and the universe. As a child, I learned in Catechism classes that God was everything and everywhere. How then could God be only a male? God must also be female. Holy Spirit Rising confirms this intuition and gives me food for thought that I can digest for years. It returns the idea of the Divine Mother to the center of Christianity, no longer a fringe idea but part of the Holy Trinity from the beginning. It also acknowledges the significance of Saint Mary Magdelene, as well as other female prophets and sages. Read this book for affirmation of your deepest yearnings; it will feed your spirit.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 22, 2024Excellent scholarship and research, written in a very conversational, easy to grasp manner. A gratifying read. Made me feel hopeful that humanity stands a chance if we allow Wisdom in.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 28, 2024As a fan and supporter of books written on the topic of Holy Spirit Mother, I am happy to say that this beautiful book was greatly enjoyed. We live in a world that has both undervalued and demeaned women; Holy Spirit Rising helps to restore balance by recentering the female image to where she belongs – as part of the Godhead. The author speaks from her heart and from her unique background, helping readers to appreciate Holy Spirit’s crucial role in our spiritual and even our planetary healing. The writing is conversational and contains a wonderful message of hope. Numerous topics are covered such as: Jesus Called the Holy Spirit Mother; There Were Female Apostles; Effects of Removing Our Divine Mother on Girls and Women; Effects of Removing Our Divine Mother on Consumerism. There are also resources at the end of the book that are sure to be helpful to those who study this topic or are simply interested in getting to know Holy Spirit better. There’s something for everyone in this book. I received a complimentary copy of Holy Spirit Rising from the author.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 22, 2024I found this book to be an enlightening and thought-provoking read, diving deep into the divine feminine and her crucial role in our spiritual and planetary healing. The author clearly researched this topic and expertly explores how the erasure of the Divine Mother distorted our understanding of God, ourselves, and the world around us -- while at the same time writing in a tone that is relatable (not academic). This book offers a profound message of hope, reminding us that reconnecting with the Holy Spirit’s maternal energy can restore balance and wisdom in our lives. A truly powerful guide for those seeking deeper spiritual truth and healing.
