Exploring the Dark Goddess
Exploring the Dark Goddess
What does the word "dark" mean to you?
Do you think of something that is evil and frightening? Or are you filled with awe and wonder?
If the concept of "Goddess" means "divine feminine", what then is a "Dark Goddess"?
Can something that is "divine" also be "evil and frightening"?
Within mythology there are certain goddesses, aspects of the divine feminine, who seem to taunt or challenge us mere mortals, reminding us of our failings and our own mortality. They are depicted as being sexually alluring temptresses, evil hags residing in the darkness forests or deep the Underworld, or worse, destroying mothers. These Dark Goddesses can haunt our dreams, bring chaos to our organised lives, or even push us to our limits.
Yet, there is more to them than that.
When we connect with the Dark Goddess, or the various aspects from mythology that fall under this title, we find that they can offer us comfort from a world of pain, and a place of much needed rest to heal and replenish our soul.
If we are brave enough to step through the veil and pass their initiations, they bestow sacred gifts upon us - the gifts of understanding the light that is contained within our own darkness, our "shadow".
These Dark Goddesses help us to "get real" in an ever-increasing world filled with superficial layerings.
Their teachings may appear harsh, yet their love is fierce and deep.
Are you brave enough to step through the veil into the realm of the Dark Goddess?
Are you able to prove yourself worthy of their sacred teachings?
Are you ready to open your own Pandora's Box and expose your failings?
Are you able to accept that precious gem hidden deep within your soul?
