Voices of the Sacred Feminine

Are we assisting oppression or resisting? Are we being neutral in the face of atrocities? Why? Is it moral or selfish? How do we define love? Are we just spiritually bypassing? How can we turn our back on our neighbor and believe we're spreading love and compassion? What about agape or love of the common good?  Discrimination is not love or compassion.

Are we Social Justice Warriors or Spiritual Bypassing Conscientious Objectors? Are we assisting oppression or resisting? Are we sitting beside injustice and calling it peace? Is white privilege or fundamentalist backgrounds preventing so many from fighting against fascism?

History has been written by the winners leaving the perspectives of the dominated and oppressed on the cutting room floor. Hear some examples of History vs Herstory and social justice and political commentary about living in our patriarchal society vs the other half of the equation so often denied, neglected or simply never known!

Taking a look at the lies, consequences and myths created by reality television from Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous, The Apprentice, The Duggars, The Bunny Ranch and Duck Dynasty. The psyches of an unsuspecting public can be twisted and manipulated with dire consequences.

Patriarchal conditioning has not only robbed men of their empathy and emotions, it has taught women to endure and denied them their ability to express their sexuality and their sacred rage. Are women honest about what they really like and want? Or are they conditioned to only worry about the pleasure of others?

Continuing my series of topics under the umbrella I call Stifled No More, I'm sharing an on-going peeve: People who think they can scapegoat, marginalize and discriminate against others and still believe they're living a life of love the oneness. Spoken from the perspective of a Divine Feminine Goddess Advocate. We can never rationalize and justify discrimination.  Love is agape, not infliction of...

I think its safe to say we all endure abuse to survive. That might sound like hyperbole, but that's because we have normalized so much abuse and exploitation in our lives. We say "Oh, that's just the way it is." But it shouldn't be. It is abuse, exploitation - maybe even in some people's lives they would call it a sin. Check out this segment and last week's segment as I discuss my trauma, healing...

The collective is deciding Humpty Trumpty is falling off the wall. He's cracking and failing and we began to really notice with the coming of the sun and the Beneficence of Jupiter at Summer Solstice 2025! Give a listen. As we will it, so shall it be. The Collective Consciousness creates it's reality!

So many of us are saturated in abuse and exploitation. It can be coming from family, the workplace, religion, the media, police. It might be institutional. It can be mild or blatant, even life threatening. Even though it might not feel good to talk about it, we must. We must shed light on it, heal it, so the trauma doesn't affect our decisions moving forward and the trajectory of our lives. Check...

Let's examine what our REAL wealth might be beyond the material and consumerism and what are our metrics to measure success. Might we measure our wealth and success differently in capitalism/patriarchy versus in a divine feminine oriented world?

So as MAGAs begin to wake up and realize the leopards are going to eat their faces too, should we expect some remorse for them being complicit in bringing the country its knees?  Aren't we all tired of seeing Trump and people associated with him get a get out of jail free card?

Talking about being stifled no more. Whether signing a NDA, or being stifled by religion or culture, allowing ourselves to be stifled does not serve us. Have you allowed yourself to be stifled as well?  Also, this is what the call "May Patriarchy Fall" looks like but we couldn't have imagined it. Wake up. Stand Up. Faith and prayer requires action. Our freedom and democracy depends on it.

I discuss in our anger-phobic culture, how women have been conditioned to avoid the normal feelings of anger, convinced it is a negative emotion, resorting instead to the passive-aggressive strategy of White Women's Tears which is more acceptable. Take a listen. Reclaim your sacred rage without guilt!

A true story of the Day Fires in California and the power of prayer, faith and trust in the Divine. At times I still find myself in a battle between my left and right brain, my analytical versus my intuitive self. Foremost analytical, I am sometimes slow to trust intuition and feelings, so for my own good, God/dess or my Divine Self, speaks to me in the language I am less likely to brush aside.

I share a magickal series of events from escaping the wasteland of the city during a traumatic time to the pieces that fell into as I connected with Spirit during shamanic journeys that healed my psyche. Maybe it can be inspiration and guidance for you.

Today's sharing with you is the story of my trip to Wisconsin to teach a weekend workshop. As I was getting ready to depart I sat among a grove of trees and had the most mysterious experience I can only describe as everyday magic. A true story.

We never know from where wisdom might flow. I tell the short sacred travel story of our fortuitious trip to a Lazy River outside Las Vegas where I found wisdom and got my mojo back!

It's hard sometmes to keep our emotions in check with all that's going on and I talk about that as well as offer some personel anecdotes, tools for coping; balance, discernment, divine guidance and resilience

Inspired from sacred journeys abroad meeting Ugly Americans and from watching what's going on in the news I talk about let's be an ambassador, not a philistine at home and in far away lands.
