The attitudes towards menstruation have differed widely in world religions and cultures. Christianity made it a negative taboo, while in Egyptian art menstrual blood was a symbol of the life force from the creative power of women. In other cultures it was interpreted as a powerful force of love and creative magic, inducing fecundity in both nature and humans.
