Fucking hell! Can you send this to all schools so that children/very young people can get acquainted with this? Maybe it is the case, but I am sure it is not at schools (definitely not in majority) in our country. It would have saved me so much sorrow, if I had known this much earlier in my life. Brilliantly written! Thank you!!
I wish I had known this, too. And alas, when it comes to these kinds of things, we tend to only be able to hear the information when we're good and ready to hear it. As Rachel wrote below, six months ago this would have made no sense to her. Such is the nature of coming to consciousness... we can only hear what we're available to hear.
Thanks for the kind words. Hope the awareness continues to help.
Big fucking mood! Six months ago I would not have had a clue what you were going on about. I confronted my devouring mother, her name is Lilith and she’s a bad bitch, she damn near devoured me! But she showed me that I was in fact wearing the crone’s scarf... when I realized I wasn’t who I thought I was I felt liberated. My crone’s name is Eve and she’s equally disempowering. Swung from hating Lilith to hating Eve until I realized that they both exist to counter each other’s extreme, and we found some kind of harmony. It was a rollercoaster to get here but I love them both now (but not simp!) ;) ☯️
Rach, you know I'm your friend and I do actually listen when you speak to me & I've been around through this whole process until the past two months, right?! ;-)
Also, I was under the impression that we were working with your Eve/Lilith dichotomy as more ego/persona, no?
I find this spectrum of feminine expression to be less 1-to-1 mapping, more of a continuum that we're moving throughout from moment to moment.
Of course ❤️ I hadn’t realized how it might come across that way, you have been a star friend Mac ❤️ And you have been again just now for getting me to question why I wrote it impersonally like that. Yes you’re correct L and E are shadow/persona respectively, but I also found patterns to map on to this too. I’m finding patterns in literally everything at the moment, since I stopped drinking and tapered my meds my brain is in overdrive, I’ve been having altered states and religious experiences left right and centre so I might have seen something in this that was not implied (I saw god in a candle recently so)!
I love you & your religiously wild brain, Rach. I also find patterns in a million things when I'm in those states. Patterns abound! There's an essay about that very thing brewing somewhere in me. And I'm not saying your assessment wasn't spot on with Eve & Lilith, just that this continuum is not as static/consistent as persona & ego are. Those are forever. This particular deviation of the feminine is a moving target.
Love you. I hope you're managing to keep your feet on the ground through all this spiritual flight you're doing.
I occasionally swoop down and skim my toes through the dirt lmao yes (I’ve finally been approved to drop my analysis seshes to 2x/wk so I must be somewhat ok)! I love you too ❤️ I’d love to read your essay on patterns! 🔥

I meant persona/shadow, my bad.
