Every once in awhile, when the moon is positioned just right and the stars twinkle in just the right way, I get a visitor or two that make me shake my head. A member of the unconscious male persuasion will pm me and express their extreme disgust for "my type".
"My type" I wonder incredulously. Do they mean well read, well meaning, funny, upbeat members of society? Do they mean ones that give to charity, volunteer and bring flowers to people who are sad? Do they mean Canadians?? Tarot card readers? Gasp, they don't mean writers?!?
No, they mean a woman that is walking the path of empowerment, celebrating the divine feminine and opening to the mysteries and gifts that are within. Ah. I see. Actually I don't but I understand where your barbs are coming from.
The patriarchal paradigms are falling away, being stripped down and shown for what they are which is no more than lies designed to oppress anyone or anything that doesn't follow their way of being.
Women, in their "expert" opinion, should not be empowered, fiery, sensual, brilliant, wise beings that can rock whatever-the-hell we want to and do it during our moonblood. Oh, shoot. I talked about taboo female bleeding. Another nail of the patriarchy will surely fall upon my casket! (Do some research kids, vaginas had a little something to do with the process of your birth. It bled. Grow up and go bring your mother some flowers.)
So sometimes there are those that show up, and like to say mean things because they feel women should get back to being quiet, playing small and being a background character. Look, you tried to silence the divine feminine, and although your rules and regulations made a pretty violent and oppressive attempt, you never succeeded in taking our voices. You will never be able to silence the wombs of the world.
You took the spotlight for awhile, though how you chose to show up wasn't in a place of being empowered (PS: It's not all men that are continuing to propagate the old way of thinking. There are many men that have been on the path of truth and authentic expression. I LOVE to see men stepping into their truest power.)
Moving away from the oppressive patriarchal focus that we have seen in the past, that is not a place of authentic truth and power. We all need to rise together, we're kinda partners in this whole thing don't you think?
So, now we've been stepping back onto the stage for awhile now, and there is nothing you can do about it, but you realize that which is why you lash out. This isn't something that you can bully mentality out. This is the divine feminine flow. This is creation baby. We're not going anywhere.
I understand and forgive your ignorance and your hatred, because of the oppression of your own beliefs. You haven't had the opportunity to open your mind to the fact that there is more than one belief, and that the feminine is nothing to be feared. W can all co-exist very happily if we all accept one anothers voices and come at things from a place of love.
Oh, and if you want to get up here and join us on the stage and be accepting and open to other's truth, there's room for all of us. That's kind of the point of this whole Earth thing, we don't have to believe the same thing, but to thrive into our fullest potential we need to be good neighbors.
So how about we share the microphone this time around and make it a duet?
