The Return Of The Divine Feminine

Sometimes when I do psychic readings, I sense a powerful female presence from Spirit, with wings spread wide, who appears to be lending strength and support to my clients. I recognize her as the Egyptian Goddess Isis, or by her Greek name, Auset.

When Goddess Isis comes into a reading, I know that serious business is at hand and that my client needs to be brave, strong, and to believe in themselves. This brings in the grander subject of the Divine Feminine and how that is showing up during my client’s reading.

The awakening of the feminine is alive and happening all around us, and more widely recognized now than ever before. The rise of the Divine Feminine is showing up in all sorts of arenas, including the corporate workplace. Women, as a whole, are speaking up and no longer have much tolerance for sexual discrimination, lower pay rates, or other outmoded ways of female disempowerment.

However, the interesting thing about the Divine Feminine is that it has a quality of power that is not based on forcefulness. It works more in alignment with the psychic realm and intuition.  The Divine Feminine works in harmony with what is, and ways to empower everyone.

Men are very much a part of, and inclusive in the reawakening of the Divine Feminine, because this is not about gender, but more about a more balanced, harmonious way of living life. The Sacred Masculine and the Divine Feminine go together perfectly, like peanut butter and jelly! We need both sides present and active for complete wholeness.

Women carry the instinctual knowing of the divine substance in matter and of how to bring this substance into life… Now this wisdom is needed for the regeneration of the earth, for the earth’s awakening ~  Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee

The concept of power versus force is another interesting aspect in the realm of the Divine Feminine. Many people associate power with pushing or force, but that is not true power. When you think about the incredible power behind the Moon and how it governs the tides of the ocean, women’s menstrual cycles, and the phases it passes through effecting us on Earth, it’s a different kind of quiet, or subtle power.

The Divine Feminine has an intuitive quality that carries a wisdom with it… a knowingness that can move in like the Element of Water and absorb or embrace all things. The Divine Feminine encourages us to honor our emotions and to embody our nurturing qualities of compassion and forgiveness.

The Goddess archetype can be experienced most obviously when we’re out under the Full Moon, standing in the herb garden, in the forest, or anywhere you can sense the quiet, loving presence of The Divine Mother. She shows herself in thousands of different forms and when she shows up in your life, it is truly a blessing to come in touch with the secret mysteries of the mystical realm.

The Sacred Feminine is not new to the New Age. It is ageless and from the beginning. The Sacred Feminine is in our blood. It is our heritage. You have permission to say, ‘God is Woman,’ and ‘God is Me” ~ Elizabeth Eiler

In the Tarot, the major arcana card, The High Priestess, embodies all the qualities of The Divine Feminine. The High Priestess says, “The greatest power is found in silence.” If you wish to reconnect with the Divine Feminine, place The High Priestess card, or a printed copy of it, on your home altar or in your sacred space. Gaze upon this card for messages and to merge with your inner Goddess.

In order to restore balance, we must start from within first on a microcosmic level. It is then that we will see it manifest on a macrocosmic level. All things from the past will return again and we as a society are remembering what has been forgotten.
