Why is the divine feminine rising? (...and what that really means)

You’ve heard it, all over the internet…

the feminine is rising.

But what does that really mean?

First, let’s explore what it isn’t. The reclamation of the feminine is not a performance, it is not a glorification of wounded maiden energy, it is not a glamorization of the distorted dark feminine, nor is it a pedestaling of the unintegrated light feminine.

It is not dancing in silk robes, dumping your emotions on the internet, using your sexual energy to manipulate, or being the perfectly pure “good girl”.

While the feminine is indeed rising, and women are the river through which her waters run… this movement is also being hijacked by matrix programming that is creating even more confusion, chaos and distortion.

Many ver well-meaning teachers are often promoting a watered down, disembodied and performative version of feminine rising. This is not a judgement of their journey, but simply a clear discernment that the most powerful teachings and movements will always be hijacked and watered down — thus stripping them of their true power.

So, why is the feminine rising?

For thousands of years, humanity has denied and demonized anything that is associated with true femininity. This has caused harm to both men and women, as aspects of human experience were pushed into the shadows.

Everything from full emotional range, intuition and oracular wisdom, connection to the body and sensuality, healing and nurturing, creation of life, art, expression, and beauty, death and rebirth, cyclicality, connection to the Earth, wisdom of magic and mysticism, rest, devotion, surrender, worship, receiving, community, collaboration… all of it has been distorted, demonized, weaponized, and destroyed.

At the same time, we have collectively been conditioned to see femininity as weak, passive, submissive, lesser, docile, and dependent. We’ve been taught to see the feminine as the wounded expression of the light feminine. A push over, people pleasing, helpless maiden “good girl” who has no value beyond her youthful naive submission. Or, we’ve been conditioned to see the feminine as the wounded expression of the dark feminine: the wicked witch, the slut, the whore, the manipulative seductress.

Simultaneously, our culture has promoted qualities of the wounded masculine essence — rewarding and teaching us to value these distorted projections of masculinity. We have been conditioned to value status, accumulation, hustle, chasing, forcing, pushing, and aggressive “power over”, domination and control. Without valuing or integrating the truly beautiful masculine qualities such as power within, integrity, respect, discipline, protection, provision, direction, leadership, vision and service.

We have been conditioned to see masculinity as dominant and oppressive, yet ultimately incapable of true leadership. We have been taught that the only way to succeed is to sharpen the masculine energy within us… in a deeply wounded and distorted way that seeks power over others with no consequence or consideration.

Both men and women have suffered deeply due to this.

Women have fought for their place within a world that has never valued their authentic gifts, choosing instead to overdevelop their own wounded masculine energy to “get ahead”. Men have either embraced the toxic race to accumulate and acquire more status of power over — leaving them as impotent warriors with no kingdom to defend. Or they have succumbed to the wounded light masculine, giving up their power altogether to the temptations of porn, addiction, video games and isolation.

reclaiming the embodied feminine

In order to change our trajectory on the planet, we need to reclaim the integrated, healthy, and empowered expression of both the masculine and the feminine.

As a woman born in a female body, it is very likely that your core, authentic essence is primarily feminine in nature. In order to express that nature in a way that is integrated, embodied, and whole — you must uproot the distortions you have inherited and picked up around what it means to be feminine, to be a woman.

You must unravel the false masculine “shell” you have acquired to make it in a world that taught you wounded masculine qualities were the only qualities of value.

You must develop a healthy and integrated relationship to your true masculine side — understanding which qualities of the masculine truly resonate with you. You will need to develop and master these qualities and harness them when it is appropriate.

And finally, you must come home to the wholeness of the feminine essence which is your truth. You will discover what femininity truly means to you and the incredible power and wisdom that can be found there. You will reclaim the full spectrum of the feminine, not as a performance but rather as a shedding of all false constructs and illusions.

You will operate in life as and through the feminine vessel that holds you. Your natural gifts will be remembered. Your innate wholeness will return.

You will call upon different aspects of self, since you are whole and complete, including your integrated inner masculine energy. You will have the discernment and intuition to know exactly when which of your gifts are needed.

You will embrace your own unique soul expression of what it means to be woman. And you will choose to be her, regardless of the dark forces that try to suppress and deny her.

To embody the divine feminine is to live as love. To be a stand for truth. To understand and embody your authentic feminine gifts as a way of life.

Big love,
