When A Woman Is In Her Power
I am now closer to 50 than I am 40.
And another portal has opened.
I am shifting into the person I have always been too afraid to set free.
I am shifting into someone who knows who she is, and who is not afraid to let the world see her authenticity.
For years, I tried to suppress the truth of who I know myself to be. I did not think I was worthy of the power within me, so I often looked outside myself. I believed that other people held the keys to the universe; that they were somehow more worthy of the Divine's love and guidance.
I feared the power because when I used it, I came from a lower octave. I was bossy. I was easily offended. And I would lash out whenever I felt threatened.
The pain of being afraid has become too much.
I can no longer be in this space. The true nature of my being has finally broken the chains, and all that I am has stepped out! (I even here Diana Ross singing, "I'm coming out!" {wink})
"Crone women fly directly into the face of ageism and sexism. They refuse to be put down. They do not walk meekly on the road to old age. They are keen to assert their presence if not their influence.
Crone provides an energetic consciousness, a radical aliveness, which fuels the fierceness of women’s strength in old age. Crone is a framework for honoring the wisdom of elder women. Crone is a template for communication, community, and communion. Crone is a basis for cooperation and compassion for all living beings. Such a consciousness allows for action in the world or for deep, quiet peacefulness with all that is.
What sets the Crone apart, however, is her willingness to tell the truth about her life."
- DR. SUSAN ANN STAUFFER
I am the Crone.
I am moving as the Mother into the final phase of the Goddess, and I am no longer afraid!
I am integrating all aspects of who I am... Maiden, Mother, Crone.
I am a Goddess standing tall in all my glory!
And...
I AM FREE!
If you see yourself in my story, it is because you too have come to a new portal that is waiting for you to step through it, in order to fully claim your power!
