I am asked to explain my opinions within modern-day Feminism quite a lot, when people hear my work is in empowering women.
My heart breaks with frustration at times when what comes as common sense to me, is difficult for another to understand.
I try to reach back into time when I first unraveled my own understanding.
I point out that privilege is defined by not having to uncover these things in order for your life to make sense, and for you to feel safe and valued.
I try to find Divine Feminine methods of explanation. But at the end of the day, facts are still King.
I notice the parts in me that have been avoiding these inquiries. Dreading the moment when the conversation turn towards- so what do you do?
I notice the deep sense of contraction in my chest- a desire to exit the seeming interrogation as fast as possible before I get humiliated or hurt.
I start on common ground, by watering down the magic of my work- claiming myself as a life coach for women, and a writer.
…then sometimes I add- spiritual teacher.
…then perhaps- energy healer.
…then maybe- teaching the ancient ways of the Goddess and earth-reverence.
I don’t say Priestess.
I don’t say f*ucking goddess queen
I don’t say shamanic healer and psychopomp
I don’t say ceremonialist and magic-maker
What is energy healing? What do you actually do?
Hmm… I think to myself- I basically do hypnosis plus psychic surgery on people. I follow my imagination, and watch the show, intuitively guiding the healing as someone’s spirit communicates with the healing energy channeled into the space.
I follow your ancestors back in time, clearing trauma of persecutution and bringing through the healing energy forward in time into your own life today, and every ancestor in that line of patterning along the way.
… ummm
its kind of like a guided meditation, and you just relax- similar to an acupuncture session. Sometimes we do more of a dialogue with your spirit guides or ancestors, or inner child.
It helps you release past experiences that were difficult so you can move on and choose something new for your life.
