Why is it that so many women today are looking to the goddess? What is missing in our experience that we are looking to another time for answers? What is it that women are really wanting?

Embracing the goddess is about embracing an archetype. Women are looking for a model that resonates true for them. Male/female, yin/yang, god/goddess, divine feminine/divine masculine. Two parts of a whole. So what is the healthy female model?

We live in a patriarchal culture, where the “male norm” is the standard. This affects a woman’s perception of herself and her experiences. I continue to hear people say that it’s a man’s world. Women are still made to feel like second class citizens. In the patriarchal model the feminine experience is seen as secondary, non-essential, messy. How does that make you feel?

My experience with the patriarchal model was that I felt like I was wearing clothes that didn’t suit me. I had to buy into a system that didn’t reflect my values. I had to justify, make excuses for my perception. I was not getting validation for my world view. I felt like a second class citizen in my own world.

And this was all because I was not finding anything that mirrored me to the core, grounded me into my values, seated me into a place within myself where I understood who I was. A place where I no longer needed to explain, justify, or step aside.

If you feel like you haven’t been able to seat yourself into your body, into your relationships, into your life in a way that feels grounding, nourishing, and abundant it could be because you haven’t found something that resonates with or mirrors who you really are.

The mirroring of your essence is what the journey into divine feminine is all about. It feels natural. It feels like home. It is acknowledging our goddess nature.  Exploring what that really means is the purpose of the WellSprings blog. The WellSprings Women’s Program is a series of courses that speak to women in their core experiences in life, grounding them into the divine feminine, transforming a woman’s sense of self.

I invite you to join me on this path. To explore a “world of thought” where you are essential, valued, honored, cherished, and most of all divine. And to bring all of this home to re-create your world in a way that makes it feel vital to you. When women change, the world around them will reflect that change.

I would love to hear from you. Please share your comments here and then join in the conversation on Facebook.
