the divine feminine
If women remember and rise up rooted, like trees. . . .well then, women might indeed save not only ourselves, but the world.
wonder | wander | women celebrate March for Women’s History Month and the birthdays of our sisters — beloved matriarchs and nurturers in our family.
As the women featured in the book reclaim women’s role as guardians of the land, our sisters have efforted long and hard over creating communities that seed and shape a better future for us.
Once upon a time, the people knew what the indigenous people of other lands knew: that our fate is inseparable from the fate of the land we live on, and the fate of wider Earth. Once upon a time, women knew that we are the land, and the land is us.
Once upon a time, we spoke with the moral and spiritual authority of the ancestors and the Otherworld. Once upon a time, before the coming of the Wasteland. Before the forces of the patriarchy systematically stripped us of that knowledge and of our power.
Before the great patriarchal religions and the men who spoke for their misogynistic gods systematically rewrote our stories.
This Lenten Season we are reminded to be the light we were born to be. The Universal Mother belongs to humanity and we belong to her. You are invited into the wisdom temple of her heart, a place of sanctuary, miraculous grace and healing.
Through her compassion, a path is always shown, with challenges transformed into blessings. To realize that her light is our light. Be connected, heart to heart, with the power to bring brilliance, strength and hope alive and into the world.
Kuan Yin (Goddess of Compassion), Tara (Ancient Star Mother), Kali (fierce Black Madonna of India), Isis (winged Goddess of Magic and Soul Alchemy), Mother Mary (Madonna of Miracles), the Holy Spirit (the Divine Feminine), Goddess Gaia (living embodied spirit of our planet Earth) are only a few we recognize and honor.
May all women discover a vibrant life as a channel of the sacred feminine and embrace our magnificent divine destiny. Blessed be!
