The lovely wise and fierce Hag. The one we are all afraid of finding in the woods, because she will eat our hearts or the one that we shudder to become ourselves. The Hag is not limited by romantic love, she is not bound to her children for an identity. She is not even successful in the world of business and money. She is not intelligent or a good girl, she is not a nurturer. She will not mimic the power dynamic of any externalized source. She is embodied and empowered from within and that is not dependent on her actions. She is precious from the beginning until the end of her spark here on the planet

“Authentic and lasting healing does not come prepackaged as sweet and syrupy wisdom to spoon-fed to lost souls, nor does it aim to fix what we perceive as broken. True healing is born of both awareness and integration- nothing more and nothing less. True healing is an eternal, often cyclical process through which we discover the roots of our unique passions and wounds, framing them not as, respectively positive and negative but, rather as interconnected gifts that, when brought out of the cavernous depths where we buried them during childhood, cast a clear gleam on precisely whey we are here.” Danielle Dulsky There is something about the tone, the lull, of this style of writing that reminds me of Tom Robbins’ literature. A window deep within my cranium is opening slowly and connecting the dots. I think the sound is that of the primal feminine, dancing with the linear language.…

A client helped me formulate this one, (you know who you are)… thank you very much.

Neither approach works well and this pattern has been the instigator of most of the violence and greed that we witness. The inherent problem is that both approaches are flawed and so the imbalances balloon. It seems that we need to abstain from taking whatever we want and we also need to stop yielding because both tendencies put us in disempowered position. We just need to stay put inside ourselves and act according to the situation at hand. Because this stance is so different then what we have been exposed to, it will take a lot of exploration and re-patterning, many self reminders. I had this…

Females are indoctrinated into Western culture at a very young age and told by every novel, pop song and movie that we must fall in love. That may be one of the first historically marketed drug, the feeling of love. We are not only told that we must fall in love but that we need that person to define us and shape our identity in the greater world. Be it a wife, a mother, or a business partner. Males are also sold the song of love but they are never told that they need a female counterpart to be successful. I read somewhere that the ideology of love was actually formulated around the mid- eighteenth century to control the population and before that time no one spoke about such matters. Let us be honest, it was designed to control the female population. Since the male population was never restricted by…
