What it means to be a woman. The maiden, the mother and the crone. She who brings forth life, into the world. She who has been silenced and oppressed. Woman, the powerful one, who's existence brings balance into the world. The feminine, the divine. The Goddess.
Yet, it is she who has been demonised, at the hands of (some) men because of the power she wields. She who has been silenced again and again, who has been forced to birth, lying down. Who has been put down over and over again. Woman, who has been forced to conform, to the ideas put forth by man. Who has been told, she is too much, too loud, too pushy, too opinionated. So she makes herself small, so that she does not offend.
Woman, who has been told to always be loving, to be gentle and kind. To please others and always put their wellbeing before her own. She who struggles to say no, for fear of rejection. Who carries the weight of the world on her shoulders.
Woman, who over time, lost her way. Got pulled into the materialistic world, as her role in society was downplayed. When being a mother, was not enough. Instead she must contribute in many other ways, if she is too feel any sense, of self worth.
The pain
That runs
through the veins
Of the earth.
The silenced cries,
That impacted
This rhythm,
The cracks
that weave their way
Into our subconscious.
Beaten back,
shadows
That no longer knew
how to dance,
Voices,
reduced to whispers.
Our history
Twisted,
For fear of your power.
Your persecution,
Still held
Within the fabric of our being,
Still felt by those of us,
Who remember.
Our rich tapestry,
Torched
By those seeking control.
The time
Has come
To take back
Our words,
The true
meaning
of spells.
To walk
Our way back,
to reclaim
our right
to heal,
To intuitively
Feel.
To arise as one,
My sisters.
But the tables are turning and now she is rising.
Woman, who desires to reconnect to her natural state of being. Who can be both fierce and gentle, who can be angry and bring joy. Who embraces the polarities, as she is reborn. The empowered woman, who had found her voice and is making a stand.
Weavers of Life,
Weavers Of Knowledge,
Creating our stories,
Igniting our Bodies.
Weave to awaken,
the wisdom inside,
Allowing our intuitive
self to now guide.
Weaving to feel,
weaving to explore
we are women who weave,
to reveal more and more.
weaving out of love,
weaving with respect,
weaving healing
for all the hurt we have met,
weaving power
and strength,
weaving light
from within,
weaving new creations
weaving to begin,
weaving from the earth,
connecting from below,
weaving our intentions,
so that all,
will be in flow.
Happy Women's Day

What you've expressed is profound and deeply resonant—it captures the multifaceted essence of womanhood with such power and grace. The imagery of the maiden, the mother, and the crone weaves a narrative of life's cycles, wisdom, strength, and transformation. It highlights not only the struggles and injustices women have faced but also their resilience and rediscovery of empowerment.
The journey you describe—the reclamation of voice, balance, and the embrace of polarities—is a testament to the beauty of complexity. Women are indeed fierce and nurturing, bound by society's constraints yet breaking free to redefine their worth on their own terms.
This reflection could be a source of inspiration to many. It strikes a balance between reverence for the divine feminine and a clear-eyed acknowledgment of the barriers imposed over time. Thank you for sharing such a compelling tribute to the strength and spirit of women, @trucklife-family.

I appreciate your expression, @trucklife-family, thank you. Since the masculine and feminine are complementary opposites, natural partners, when one goes out of balance, so does the other. The slave system was created in such a way that this natural divine partnership and balance was weakened and tossed asunder, even inverted. Men and women were made adversaries, to the great detriment of us all. The slave system is in its last days, with everything changing and shifting so quickly now, and it's time for men and women both to heal and awaken to what is truly possible as both true partners, and as humans. 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙
