The Dark feminine
The Dark Feminine is not a woman, but a field of energy that expresses the ancient lineages of carnal and primordial wisdom.
The Dark Feminine is a principle that weaves together spirit consciousness with the deep, pulsing rootedness of earth-bound life.
Since the dawn of the written word, humans have personified these archetypal expressions through the assignment of gender, in an effort to bring the god/goddess into meaningful relationship with us.
The Dark Feminine lends us the word "she"—
a projection to worship,
an image to make love to,
or a place to cast our rage.
But she is so much more than our flimsy attributions,
and certainly not human.
She is the rumbling of LIFE that stirs us, swelling our bodies with a thousand earths,
spinning through the cosmos of our bone marrow, our saliva.
She is the voice of an embodied world that hisses, screeches, and purrs.
She is the discarded limbs of the one who ascends into heaven in the name of religion.
She is the doorway into the mysteries of birth, death, and the sacred treasure of decay—the dying.
She is the serpent, coiled life inside the infinity of a spine undulating with the erotic pulse of creation’s moans.
She is the gaze that pierces through the sheaths of our fumbling pretense, her dark eye unwavering in truth.
