"And speaking of witches…all strong women hold the innate wisdom to heal, coordinate, consolidate, and magically get things done. It’s what we do. And, why it makes such morbid sense for our patriarchal forefathers to burn us at the stake in a public grotesque practice designed to torture some of our very unlucky sisters and control all the others. 


And if today's political scene feels familiar to your witchy bones that’s because it is. The power of fear is stronger today than ever before in our lifetimes and per usual women are taking the brunt of the politics of fear. No matter which side of the isle you’re on this truth is undeniable. And not just women but people of color, LGBTQ communities and religious communities not aligned with the current Christian Nationalism which bears no resemblance to traditional Christian values. 

 

Whether you’re a man or a woman, if you consider yourself a decider of another’s soul, body, or thoughts or if you’re OK with those that do, then you might be a part of the patriarchy. We’ve all been indoctrinated or more aptly gaslit from birth. Sometimes it takes a while to unpack our misguided assumptions and beliefs from well-meaning teachers, parents, religions, and governments. But make no mistake the patriarchy doesn’t work for the whole. Look around at our relationships, our communities, our world. We’re not utilizing the brilliance of the balance. Our imbalance of masculine over feminine energy has caused chaos and trauma to both men and women for centuries. Just as we don’t benefit from a male dominated society, we might not  benefit from the opposite either. Inside the balance is our true power."
