Women are Emerging

Women are standing up to take their place in their world is greater and greater numbers. Others are "Measuring" them.

My stand in relationship to women's role in this world has shifted greatly from my birth community's teachings.

If we measure with a ruler with digits missing, the entire structure will be unstable. The same is true with women. If we begin with incorrect or missing truths, their value will be lost. As a Radical Mystic, I will share new views for contemplation.

Mother Earth Adds Her Voice

-->
All that Forms for Good has Intelligent/Good as Core
The Intelligence of energy which holds the space for our planet to manifest, the One we call Mother Earth, first came to me in 1997.
Although I am including her message in my next book, I know that it is time to share it now, with you.
May her words touch your heart and awaken your desire to know....
Sharon Riegie Maynard- T

Spring, 1997

Doe Bay, Orcas Island, WA

"Greetings, my daughter. We are here today to begin awakening women, to remind them of the magic of being female. 
 “There is a large circle of your Spiritual Sisters here and as Mother Earth I will be spokesperson. We want you to know that we, the Golden Dragons, are here!
“What can I say to my daughters that will free them quickly? How to give truths so that all women around the world will drop off the false masks, heavy chains and get humanity out of its’ death cycle. Yes, you are in a death cycle, you have a death wish, living under the heavy mantle of many death wishes, and it is time to snap out of it!
 "We must begin where we begin and pray that our love will be enough to lift our sisters into their clarity and power.
 "We plan to be practical, use common sense, and suggest a lot of magic. It is my purpose to provide a path so women can step into their true mission. This information is like none other for it is from the Ancient One, the crone of the earth, the Mother returning truth and purpose to her daughters, the Goddess you have had ripped away from yourself. My dear one, with my help, you will dream awake the bones of your mothers and of the female mission. 
 "I reach out to my daughters, my sisters, my mothers and grandmothers. I gather you all in my arms to return you to the heart, soul and power of yourselves. 
 "I gather you onto my lap, wrap you in protection, in invisibility, in love and in joy as I rock you and sing the songs of your beginnings.
 "To awaken a desire to know your beginnings you need only look into the eyes of your children and feel your heart ache for their safety. To find the courage to find your roots you need only feel the pain as you look out over the world in its rush into war and greed. To deepen your commitment to plant your feet onto the Earth and say, “No more!” you need only acknowledge the heavy sense of insanity and powerlessness many lie down with each night. Have you sensed the emptiness around you?
 “Your children are ready to live in new ways. My question to all of my sisters is, 'Are you ready to help them?’ 
 "Deep inside, so deep inside that it may be but a flicker, you know that things are not as they ought to be. In that deep inner place, the place that you dare not touch for fear of the pain and of the rage, you tell yourself that you must keep still. You tell yourself that others will do it. You tell yourself that it is not a woman’s place. While at the same time, you know that in keeping still, expecting others, or waiting for the men, you and your children will die.
 "In our cave, deeply hidden, in circle we wait. There are others with me. We are your sisters. We are together, eyes closed, heads bowed; waiting, hoping, still. We have turned ourselves off because we must. But, be assured. We are not dead. We are not despondent. We wait by choice for the moment of your awakening. We watch. We listen. And we wait. We have waited for generations. When you awaken, when you come out of your imposed stupor, when you see the loss of your true selves, our mission together can begin.
 "Close your eyes, quiet your mind, and sink deeply within yourself. Sit beside us. You can sense, see, and feel our circle. Breath. Be still and know your place with us.
 "Notice our calm, the depth of our clarity, the absoluteness of our love, the vigilance in our quiet. Breath. Feel our energy embrace you. We hold the mission of women waiting to re-emerge. We hold the truth of your grandeur, wisdom and power. 
 “We are not frightened, frivolous or fretful. We know we will prevail. We know that love will triumph. We know that our Greater family will walk into their Divine nobility.
 "Come, sit within our circle. Let our stillness permeate you until you know our space, until you become one with us. We have held the remembrance and now we invite you to step out of your drama into the remembrance. We have held truth for you. There is nowhere you need to get; this place has been with you forever. We hold space and now, we are ready to enfold you within our circle.
 “Listen as I, the Mother, tell your story.
 "My dear daughters, sisters, you have been lead down the garden path, as they say."
"You have been raped, tortured, enslaved and murdered. You have been accused, searched out, hung, drowned and burned at the stake. 
 “All this was done in the hope that you, all women, would forget who they are. Many, no most of you, have gone into the dramas and have played the roles written for you: the role of harlot, bitch, victim, witch, crazy, valueless, crazy, slave. You have cut off your sisters, turned on each other, competed for the attention of men, clawed to keep each other small, denied your value and place, and played roles assimilated to the culture of enslavement. 
 “You have done all of these things to keep your true, precious Selves from being totally destroyed. Generation after generation you secreted away your magic. First you hide is away within my stones, water, air and fire. Then, you tamped their call deep within your bones and bought the voices that discounted your intuitive wisdom and clear seeing visions. Lifetime after lifetime you locked your knowledge, boxed and hidden away within yourselves. Time after time you sided with the oppressors to still their power to destroy you. In village after village you stood in secret circles and promised to keep yourself and your sisters small in order to preserve women’s lives. And more importantly, you have played the roles to keep this secret cave undiscovered. I repeat you have played lesser roles in order to keep the secret of women and the strength of women protected. 
 “Hear me!
 "You have come to believe that you are the roles. After being in the dramas of fear and cruelty used to force your mothers and grandmothers into subservience, you have come to believe you have no value. You have assumed that females are weak, are disgusting, are were nothing. 
 “The truth is that you began playing these roles to preserve the power of females. From a place of magnificence, of intelligence, of commitment you CHOSE to pretend weakness. You have put yourself through the fires of hell to protect the sacred female mission, to protect all who know the truth of sisterhood and to preserve your flicker of deep inner light until we could all rise to our mission, the mission of women to lead this world into glorious expressions of our Divine Nature.
 "We are telling you that the need to be false is over! The strength of your eternal intelligence, wholeness and authority has been re-membered in the highest dimensions of Light. You can no longer hold on to the false roles. It is not a matter of being strong and clear when you are ready. We are ready! All of the false masks, false protections, and false roles among women must be removed. We tell you that it is time to unplug from the dramas of false roles and subjugating systems. Unplug. We have established impermeable boundaries that provide environments for the evolution of humankind, boundaries that give you safety. 
 "Sisters, we are ready to roar with you as lions, ready to run as wolves, ready to weave magic into the world. We are ready to wake up and move mountains! We are the Golden Dragons holding Female Truth and YOU are one of us!"

Writer:
Much has been done to transmute the energy of torture, abuse, survival within the female psyche. The immense clearing and release of patterns from the "burning times" and other such experiences that women have held hidden makes it possible for the "bones" of women's truth to be seen.
Thanks to all who have lessened the energy for all-sisters and brothers!

Women on the Move

Motherhood, One Option for Women

The year is 2012. The focus in the United States is on Occupy, on the elections and on terrorism. And, women are on the move.

What does women on the move mean?

More women in the Olympics
Women in more corporate positions
Women speaking out about domestic abuse and violence
Women traveling around the world
Women saying "no" to war in their village
Women breaking the silence about the impact of partriarichial systems
Women encouraging women to run for political office
Women speaking of the Goddess in religious circles
Young girls standing up to power to say No to altered body images...

and more....

Some will say this movement is good. Others will say it is bad. What determines?

Like everything in our lives, our view is the result of our inner world of beliefs. If I hold the concept that women belong in the home; cooking, cleaning, raising children, and keeping life smooth for their "man", then I might judge the increased numbers of women in the workplace as "bad".

If I view life as an opportunity for each individual to explore and discover what brings them joy then I might judge the increased options for women outside of the home as "good".

Women on the move is creating a new culture in which we will see our own dogma and inner concepts about being female show up in our thoughts, emotions or actions. Realizing that all that we believe is only one way of seeing the world, is a made up concept and that we can mature beyond our limited thinking is the gift for humanity.

Will we open the box of our minds and let in the new gifts of seeing male/female differently?
