Walking in the deep woods, he strikes apart two coupling serpents and transforms into a woman. Seven years later, she, now called Teira, encounters mating serpents, strikes between them, and becomes male again. When summoned by Zeus and Hera to answer who enjoys sex more, man or woman, Teiresias replies woman. Enraged, Hera blinds him. In compensation, Zeus grants him second sight, and he becomes the soothsayer entwined in the tragedies of Oedipus and his descendants. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSources: Ovid's Metamorphosis for the gender changes and the Theban plays of Sophocles as well as tragedies by Euripides and Aeschylus for the stories of Teiresias as the blind seer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDuring thes fading days of Mother Goddess religions, he relates his long-secret history to his daughter Manto, telling her a story that she, and Webber's readers, will never forget.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jinny Webber\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0998698059\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780998698052\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bluetide Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/12\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 310\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.79lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.70d","brand":"Jinny Webber","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46962047582463,"sku":"9780998698052","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9e18bfd3-aba5-41e5-a2c3-26be8e8b3946.jpg?v=1750649164","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/serpent-visions-jinny-webber-9780998698052","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
