Cactus Springs is not much more than a wide spot in the road, but set back several hundred yards from the road is The Temple of Goddess Spirituality Dedicated to Sekhmet. The Temple was construed in 1993 "founded on the principles of peace, goddess spirituality & the gift economy. "
Some people incorrectly refer to the structure as The Woman's Temple because the Temple is dedicated to Sekhmet and it was constructed primarily by women laborers. Apparently, the building has no foundation and the walls are made from straw bales, covered with stucco. The dome is made of seven interlocking copper hoops and there are four ceramic turrets on top of the walls There are no doors, roof, or windows in the Temple, but there are four wall openings - one facing each direction.
Sekhmet is an ancient Egyptian goddess that has a lion's head and a woman's body, which is just the opposite of the Sphinx that has a man's head and a lion's body. Surrounding Sekhmet on the other walls in the Temple are goddesses from many other cultures. Information provided by the Temple's builder indicates that "Sekhmet is the goddess of four thousand names, of which only a few hundred are known to normal humans."
