Women Who Run with the Wolves: Myths and Stories of the Wild Woman Archetype Review: Not a quick read - This is one of those books that feels less like a casual read and more like something you sit with and really take your time going through. It blends storytelling, psychology, and mythology in a way that’s very thought-provoking, but it’s definitely not something you can rush through. The writing is rich and layered, and there are a lot of deeper meanings behind the stories. Some sections really stuck with me and made me stop and reflect, especially around themes of intuition, identity, and personal growth. That said, it can feel a bit dense at times. If you’re expecting something light or fast-paced, this probably isn’t it. I found it’s best read in smaller portions so you can actually process everything. Overall, it’s a meaningful and unique book that I can see people coming back to more than once. If you enjoy introspective reads and don’t mind something a little heavier, it’s definitely worth picking up. Review: The search for Self in the magic of fairytales - Women Who Run with the Wolves, by Clarissa Pinkola Estes, Ph.D., is an innovative exploration of feminine journey to Self. The book was written more than three decades ago and has aged well. The oppression of the feminine that Estes focuses on in this book is still present in the twenty-first century. This book is an important reminder of the importance of the feminine and of the dangers of losing that connection in the name of comfort. We love fairytales: the magic, the kingdoms where justice wins and “forever after” is about to begin. This book teaches the different meanings of magic; how and when it manifests itself in the characters’ journeys. We learn how much feminine wisdom is hidden in those fairytales, and how rewarding it is to uncover that wisdom in oneself. The book helps us to rediscover our ancient connection to the land and how our histories overlap. We remember what we never thought we knew. It hurt to read about the intentional sidelining of women and the unaccountability that continues to the present. We rediscover the inner she-wolf and follow her closely as she guides us to our own “Wild Woman” archetype:spiritual, creative and intuitive Self. I appreciated the symbolism of the fairytales and lamented the need to hide the meaning of the stories that revered the feminine. In her poetic way, the author allows for a determined immersion into the potential of recognizing one’s own intuition and creativity through the archetypal feminine figures in the fairytales she has collected from all over the world. Each story is a lesson in loss and the possibility of redemption, through the difficult challenge of honest reflection of your Self. All this requires courage and this book is a faithful cheerleader; should one be brave enough to learn it. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,684 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #6 in Mental & Spiritual Healing #12 in Sociology Reference #70 in Personal Transformation Self-Help | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 17,324 Reviews | ## Images ![Women Who Run with the Wolves: Myths and Stories of the Wild Woman Archetype - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71CopzwvMTL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not a quick read *by M***A on April 7, 2026* This is one of those books that feels less like a casual read and more like something you sit with and really take your time going through.

Especially women! Actually just everyone. It talks about the female archetype and the role of the female throughout history and it is one of the most inspiring and strength giving books I have ever read I get a copy of this for literally every woman or girl that I meet. You could be having a horrible day and just crack that book open to almost any page and you will find something that will uplift you and make you feel like a powerful strong woman. And I feel that everyone should read this because it is important to understand and recognize and acknowledge the strength of the female archetype and the strength of females in general. ## Frequently Bought Together - Women Who Run with the Wolves: Myths and Stories of the Wild Woman Archetype - The Power of Now: A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment - The Untethered Soul: The Journey Beyond Yourself --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/235745-women-who-run-with-the-wolves-myths-and-stories-wild](https://www.desertcart.us/products/235745-women-who-run-with-the-wolves-myths-and-stories-wild) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-05-19*
