Expanding possibilities

Its just possible that Santa hasn’t fulfilled all your dreams. Perhaps the elves couldn’t wrap up love, freedom, ecstasy, health, world peace and a clean environment, or perhaps they knew we would enjoy and grow through co -creating (or helping to re-create) these things.

If New Year’s resolutions or traditional goal setting ideas don’t help, you might like to try a feminine alternative. All of us have some feminine traits (as well as some masculine traits), and we can all benefit from both approaches for different desires. The masculine approach makes things happen through focus, discipline, doing and control. The feminine approach is based on feeling, allowing, co-operation, incubating and joy. The difference may not be visible to outsiders but it feels different to those involved or affected. (more…)

The winter solstice honours all the seasons, including the feminine or yin darkness and internal focus of winter, anticipates and celebrates the return of the light. In honour of this, I want to celebrate some women who have matured in obscurity and emerged to offer us all new hope and inspiration.

Towards the end of my husband’s life I noticed that I was broken inside. I was still functioning effectively, so it did not feel as though what was broken was my ego, and I do not think anyone else noticed. (more…)

Back in the 1980s, when referring to a woman as a girl was non-PC, my husband called me his ‘baby woman’. (more…)

1. Have deeper experiences so know what seeking

Many of us know that being in our hearts leads to a more satisfying experience of life and individually and collectively, we sorely need the feminine, but most of us have only superficial experiences and few, if any, role models of either. The result is that, rather than embodying something radically different and virtually unknown in our culture, we are somewhat less in our heads and somewhat less masculine. If we are to bring these true and distinct alternatives back to this planet, we need first to experience what we are seeking and returning to. The best way to do this is in the company of the few people who embody the divine feminine, such as Amma. (more…)

Since Darren Eden (darreneden.com) is launching his Intuition Initiation workshops in the UK in Brighton (my back yard) I listened to a tele-seminar with him. From this brief introduction to Eden’s work, there appear to be many similarities between Eden’s approach and Matrix Energetics (ME), such as :- (more…)

Unhappy medium

The feminine principle has been suppressed for millennia. In recent decades, we have also learnt to suppress the masculine and relate in a safe, neutral way. Relating in a neutral way is expedient for all of us at times, but part of the richness of life and opportunity of this time, is for all of us to develop a wider spectrum of strengths and choices, and dance more freely with others, especially in intimate relationships. To dance we have to be willing to be and express something other than neutral. In doing so, we help others express more of themselves. In particular, when we are more feminine, we leave space for others to be more masculine. (more…)
