Ramblings About Goddess Spirituality

Goddess Focused Religion - or at least a religion in which the woman is valued and honored - has a strong appeal, not only personally, but for many other women, as it gives and honors our power, the power of the marginalized. It is no accident that many whom proclaim to be Witches are women, not to discount my dear Brothers of the Craft - but I will honor you another time. In this post I want to explore the female focused power, the strength and wisdom that is honored within the religious paths of Goddess worship in her many forms and the female Witch, the carrier of wisdom that many feared, revered, tried to silence, and rises now once more.

We, as citizens of the Universe, need more of these women, those whom are aware of their power that goes beyond of being pushed in roles that do not suit us. We need, the Earth needs our caring AND our fierceness, our kindness AND our power.

Our voices have to rise again, as meek and weakness' does not serve the expansion of all of us. As we reach our power through exploration of the mysteries of Goddess worship and Witchcraft (which is not always the same, even for female Witches, let me be clear of that), we are serving by not bowing, even to our own chosen deity. We are her Priestess, not her maid, an calling that is not for the weak hearted. As our voices rise, our children, both female and male will benefit from our strength. They will benefit from non-conformity, from our personal diversity and our power. Our voices, as well as our bodies will move from the hidden and used, to a treasure of wisdom and pleasure to benifit our Brothers as well. Just like the increase of wealth for all brings more wealth, the increase of power to us women, Witches or not, will serve all that partake in the Universe.

We need to claim that power back. We need to hear her calling. And we need to allow those of our Brothers whom extend their hand to us partake in our dance.
