Let’s take a good look at the spin…

Of how natural law, became patriarchal law…

This power that woman holds in her body…

To create life, from her substance…her flesh & her blood…

To commune with the realms…

To see, intuitively…

Is a great threat

For the law & order

Of the linear mind

She produces chaos—

In periods—

Because from chaos—

She can create something—

Altogether new…

And when she circles with other women when the moon is dark, she makes a lot of noise indeed—

Blood & menstruation to the ancients, was a break in status quo order, & was seen to be the making of noise—

The women coming together in circle around the communal hut in noisy ritual—

The ritual of heightened awareness

Of feelings being surfaced

in bodily movement & song—

What wildness, this chaos-making is?

From which the women come back, producing order from their communal noise

She brings back knowledge & culture from the blood altered state—

For man this became a growing insult, to be seen with eyes that are wise & knowing— How painful…

And if she chooses her partner for the full moon, at ovulation, surely some men will have more than others?

Wounds fester & grow, until resentment & anger becomes violence & force to get…

To tame, to domesticate, to subdue the intuitive wildness, to control, dominate

To claim the power

Patriarchal law originates in a primary wound, call it anxiety, & patriarchal law perpetuates anxiety

Because he has to learn the truth of the power he wants—

The power is his consciousness

The power is his heart

His seeing—

The acceptance that he as child of Mother Consciousness

Has never been left out

And is always, already, fully seen

By her

Ancient moon priestesses were called virgins.

‘Virgin’ meant not married, not belonging to a man - a woman who was ‘one-in-herself’. The very word derives from a Latin root meaning strength, force, skill; and was later applied to men: virile. Ishtar, Diana, Astarte, Isis were all called virgin, which did not refer to sexual chastity, but sexual independence. And all great culture heroes of the past, mythic or historic, were said to be born of virgin mothers: Marduk, Gilgamesh, Buddha, Osiris, Dionysus, Genghis Khan, Jesus - they were all affirmed as sons of the Great Mother, of the Original One, their worldly power deriving from her. When the Hebrews used the word, and in the original Aramaic, it meant ‘maiden’ or ‘young woman’, with no connotations to sexual chastity. But later Christian translators could not conceive of the ‘Virgin Mary’ as a woman of independent sexuality, needless to say; they distorted the meaning into sexually pure, chaste, never touched.

"What would it have been like if patriarchy had never happened? To get an idea we have to comprehend the first law of matriarchy: Women control our own bodies." #greatcosmicmother #mothersday #monicasjoo #barbaramor
