I thought some of you might want to know about this. Shekinah was one of the designers of the first feminist tarot deck, The Matriarchal Tarot, which eventually gave birth to the Daughters of the Moon and Motherpeace Tarots.

Shekhinah Mountainwater... Faery Bard, Radical Muse, Foremother of the Womanspirit movement, Author of Ariadne's Thread, Priestess of Aphrodite... crossed into the arms of the Great Mother at 2:30 pm PST on Saturday, August 11, 2007.
Shekhinah was a beloved sister and a teacher to countless many. She dedicated her life to sharing and expressing the love of the Goddess in all ways. Her love and spirit will continue on in the hearts of those she touched... and beyond, for generations to come.
Shekhinah was diagnosed with cancer in December 2005. She fought like an Amazon, in an amazing dance with her cancer. Always sharing her experiences, she was a teacher throughout her death transition, and continues to be even now.
Her passing was quiet, peaceful, and even beautiful; with one last deep exhalation, her spirit crossed the veil. Thursday, August 9th, her sacred last rites were performed by Z Budapest... Shekhinah reminisced about this important, loving experience before falling into constant sleep. She was surrounded by sisters and her family at the time of her passing. She was honored with song, laughter, a few tears, the beautiful sent of roses, and lush robes... exactly what she always wished for the time of her crossing.
Dearest Shekhinah, may your spirit fly with the stars, into the arms of the Mother. May your spirit be healed and cleansed in Her cauldron; may you be comforted and rebirthed in Her womb. Our love flies with you, as our tears wet the sweet Earth. Forever shall you be loved and honored.
