Lotus Empress I love this post! I did read all of Judy Blume's books back as a pre-teen and of course I tried the arm flapping. LOL! I like how you allude to our lack of ritual and tradition around the developmental stages of life. I think we've really lost something there. I also became enraged as you reminded me of what JUST HAPPENED in FL. I'm guessing as the DF revs up, so will the backlash. I foresee more attempts to subjugate woman through laws in our future. Sorry for ending on such a downer! That's why these spaces and all spaces must be inhabited by women who are living in accordance with our truths.
Thank you for reading my post and the wonderful feedback, Kelley! I'm so glad you liked it!! Yes, I agree. It's so important for women to have these conversations and dialogue so we can share our truth and light. During meditation, I visualize the earth being encompassed in a big heart of love that saturates every being on the planet and if we do that collectively then we can help shift the global energy to one of love, peace, and joy. Have a great day, Kelley!
What you said is so true! Myself included, we all get caught up in the labels so we can bucket it into something familiar and if it isn't familiar then it's perceived as different which is okay. We need to become the difference to make the difference!
I will always read your beautiful writing! Thank you!

Love the visual!!!
I will always read your stuff.
Right on!!!!!
I think one of the challenges is language itself. So much about this shift is wisdom based rather than knowledge.
Embodied.
We've become so verbal I think it's often hard to have discourse because we (me absolutely included) get caught up in definitions.
