Women! So much wisdom & so much depth…..
We are women who are living in this in between time, at the threshold of what was and what is yet to be. And as unsettled as the world is, we rest in a greater truth: the knowing that we *chose* to be born here at this time. In this place. We who belong to the old stories. Women who dream in symbols, feel the rhythm of the earth in our bodies, and are not afraid of descent or becoming. Clarissa Pinkola Estés calls us “wild women” — those who remember who they were before the world told them who to be.
That energy is needed now more than any other time in history. We came here for this, to minister, to show the way and to love. And to help remind you of what that is and who you are, I hit my journals for remembering a few things we do differently, that we have learned in our years here and the energies we bring to teach and lead others - things that the earth so badly needs right now. Things that maybe you too need to be reminded of.
1. We have learned the sacred nature of our intuition, even when it howls in the dark. even when it wakes us screaming. Especially then. We trust the instinctual knowing that rises unbidden—especially when it disrupts. “The wild nature carries the bundles for healing; she carries everything a woman needs to be and know.”
2. We pay attention to and honor our cycles—not just calendars. We move with the moon, rest when our bones say stop, and bloom in off-season hours. “To be strong does not mean to sprout muscles and flex. It means meeting one’s own luminosity without fleeing.”
3. We do not fear descent nor the shadow self. We finally understand that the underworld holds treasure. “To live as closely as possible to the numinous wild is to live at the edge of death. That is where the creators live.”
4. We seek solitude without apology, and have learned the love of our own company. And while we deeply love others and still experiencing loneliness, we also know that in silence, the wild woman speaks. “Solitude is the soul’s holiday.”
5. We are led by, and are devoted to the creative fire. We write, paint, tend altars, bake bread, cultivate and harvest wild plants, whisper poems—not for performance, but for survival. We buy art not because it matches our decor, but because it sings to our soul. “The creative life is the soul’s food and water.”
6. We leave when it’s time to go. No matter how beautiful the cage, we choose the forest. “If you have ever been called uncivilized, untameable, congratulations. You are on the right path.”
7. We protect the sacred fiercely. Our boundaries are circles of fire. “A healthy soul must do two things each day: release and defend.”
8. We daily seek wisdom and pay attention to all of the mysterious ways it sings to us. In the language of birds, in the ladybug crossing the threshold of a window, in a word heard from nowhere, in the art that just “happens” to appear in our feed. And we keep these things conscious and in from it us soas not to lose track. “The doors to the world of the wild Self are few but precious.”
9. We re-member ourselves. What was shamed, hidden, buried—we gather it all. “We all begin as a bundle of bones lost somewhere in a desert. It is our work to re-member her.” We are women of the bones.
10. We support other women in our tribe and community. We have learned the terrible destruction of women on women crimes and will have no part of them, whether gossip, fake influencers or bad art. We support what immediately sings as truth to us, as from soul, which is more sacred than approval. “The most important thing is to hold on, to begin again, to trust the soul.”
Remember this when you feel wandering or not like you are “doing something” in the midst of this collective chaos. If it were not for YOU buying my art, commenting on these posts, sharing them or even just being here and being witness, then I could not do what I do. By virtue of you being you, you are doing everything.
Including helping me to be me. And there are not enough words to thank you for that.
