The cover of The Minoan Coloring Book by Laura Perry next to a neatly laid out stack of colored pencils in a variety of different colors. The coloring book cover features colored-in versions of the Minoan Snake Goddess, the Bull Leaper Fresco, and the Ladies in Blue fresco as well as an uncolored (black and white) line drawing of a Minoan octopus vase.
I created this coloring book (by hand, no clipart or AI) because I wanted a historically accurate Minoan coloring book, and there wasn't one available. Details and sample coloring pages via the link below.

Closeup photo of a portion of one of my pagan altars on a cream-colored painted tabletop. This one has a Minoan theme. From left to right the photo shows a red glass votive candle holder, the business end of a rustic sistrum, a Minoan Snake Goddess figurine, a finger labyrinth made of spice clay, a pair of dark brown Minoan sacred horns sitting atop a chunky wooden stand, and the Fate card from my Minoan Tarot deck, which shows a seated goddess holding a drop spindle.
When I draw a Tarot card for the day, I stand it on my altar so I can see it every time I pass that spot and be reminded of it. Sometimes I put it away at the end of the day, and sometimes I leave it out overnight as a companion to my dreams.

This week’s Minoan Tarot cards are two sides of the same coin and are more closely related than you might think. This deck is my creation, made the old-fashioned way (ink on paper) and available at bookstores everywhere.

As an extreme nerd of the Bronze Ages, I have a particular love for the Minoans! So of course I had to make a drop spindle inspired by Minoan Linear B! This taste of history can be found here! www.woolabull.com/products/59 #Dropspinning #Minoan #LinearB #WoolaBull

Three copies of The Last Priestess of Malia by Laura Perry (ebook on tablet, ebook on phone, and paperback) stand in front of ancient Minoan vases at the Minoan site of Knossos. The book cover is blue with a painting of a Minoan priestess in front of a temple. At the top of the graphic is a quote from a review of the book. It reads, "...a beautifully written tale that will break your heart. Nimue Brown, Druid Life Blog."
This book was hard to write, not because the story is complicated (though it is) but because it's so heart-wrenching, and so very relevant to our times. Details and CWs:

One of the challenges of Paganism-as-nature-religion is reconciling sacred calendars from different parts of the world.

Graphic with the book cover of Labrys & Horns: An Introduction to Modern Minoan Paganism by Laura Perry on the right and text on the left. The book cover is aqua and features a pair of Minoan sacred horns with a labrys standing upright between the horns. The text reads, "The Minoans themselves may have died long ago, but their deities are still very much alive, waiting for us to reach out to them." Below the text is the URL LauraPerryAuthor.com. In the background behind the text and the book cover is a Minoan fresco that shows two red-skinned Minoan men with long, curly black hair, processing toward the right. They are bare-chested, wearing short kilts and carrying large offering vessels.
I wrote this book at the request of the Ariadne's Tribe community. It's a guide to inclusive Minoan spirituality for the solitary practitioner, with rituals, devotionals, the pantheon and the sacred calendar - and even some crafts!

The Minoan Bull Leaper fresco from Knossos with two Minoan Tarot cards, each of which depicts a part of the fresco. The fresco shows a large tan-and-white spotted longhorn bull galloping toward the left while three athletes in loincloths and boots perform bull leaping. A white-skinned athlete on the left hangs on the bull's horns. A red-skinned athlete in the center balances upside down on the bull's back. A white-skinned athlete on the right stands facing the bull with arms out, as if they have just landed from a leap. The Minoan Tarot card on the left, 8 Strength, shows the athlete hanging from the bull's horns. The card on the right, 14 Balance, shows the athlete balancing on the bull's back. Both the fresco and the cards have a detailed multicolor border all the way around.
Every card in my Minoan Tarot deck was inspired by a Minoan artifact or work of art. In this case, a single work of art - the Bull Leaper fresco - inspired two Major Arcana cards. I made this deck the old-fashioned way, with ink on paper.

The front cover of Tales from the Labyrinth: Modern Minoan Myths by Laura Perry overlaid on a photo of green grass blades bejeweled with drops of dew. The book cover features the Minoan Snake Goddess and a labyrinth design. Text above the book cover reads, "Ariadne knew that she must leave the Underworld as a natural part of the cycle. She would return to the World Above for the season, rising up with the first green sprouts in the fields." At the bottom of the graphic is the URL LauraPerryAuthor.com.
I had so much fun writing these stories and painting the illustrations for them! Each myth includes a full-page color illustration, in the Minoan art style. Details, table of contents, sample illustrations: www.lauraperryauthor.com/tales-from-t...

A view from above of a white footed plate on an altar covered with a yellow cloth. On the plate are, in the center, a green swirled dome-shaped glass paperweight, surrounded by three scallop shells (one orange, one pink, one white - all natural colors) and a dried palm frond.
The Minoan Three Great Mothers in symbolic form on my altar. The goddesses Rhea, Therasia, and Posidaeja are connected with the sacred realms of Land, Sky, and Sea. Can you guess which object(s) represent each goddess?
