As with any spiritual or philosophical construct, there are many different definitions of the Divine Feminine. The Divine Feminine is often seen as a force of nature – She is the Earth, the Moon, the oceans, and the stars.
WHAT IS THE DIVINE FEMININE?
The Divine Feminine is the feminine aspect of the divine power that connects and binds the Earth together.
In other words, it is the goddess energy that exists within all of us. Many ancient cultures have a Divine Feminine concept. The Egyptians had Isis, the Greeks had Aphrodite, and the Hindus have Shakti. Aspects of the Divine Feminine can be found in almost all ancient and modern belief systems.
The Divine Feminine is often associated with fertility, creativity, and intuition. Tapping into this energy can help heal the mind, body, and soul of women in addiction recovery.
QUALITIES OF DIVINE FEMININE ENERGY
To start, let’s turn to the dictionary. Divine has many definitions, but the one that stands out is “supremely good, heavenly, Godlike.” Feminine also has several meanings, but this one seems the most appropriate: “the embodiment or conception of a timeless or idealized feminine nature.”
Remember, we are talking about the spiritual aspect of what it means to be human. Understanding the Divine Feminine is a tall order.
Here is a list of qualities that describe this sacred energy:
1. Emotional.
2. Right-brained.
3. Action oriented.
5. Seeks self-mastery but is more concerned with sacrificing for the greater good.
6. Extroverted, open.
7. Vulnerable and nurturing.
8. Cooperative.
9. Wants to “be” rather than “do”
10. Gentleness, sensitivity.
11. Defines success by relationships.
12. Concerned with creativity.
13. Makes decisions based on intuition.
14. Focused on the emotional world and the inner being.
15. Open to the experience of joy rather than an outcome.
The Divine Feminine can also get out of harmony. When it does, these characteristics go to an extreme end of the spectrum.
If a man or woman does not properly channel their femininity, they can become codependent, overly emotional, irrational, sacrificial to their own detriment, disorganized, confused, and lost.
This results in dysfunctional relationships and contributes to mental health issues like bipolar disorder, constant burnout, a lack of productivity, a loss of self-worth, a “damsel in distress mentality,” and the inability to complete projects.
When you tap into the Divine Feminine, you will experience a more profound sense of personal freedom and self-love. In no uncertain terms, you will have a spiritual awakening. There is no need to be afraid when it comes to the Divine Feminine.
