Global Goddess Traditions
Here out of instinct or grace we seek
soulmates in these galleries of hieroglyph and glass,
where mutual longings and sufferings of love
are laid bare in transfigured exhibition of our hearts,
we who crave deep secrets and mysteries,
as elusive as the avatars of our dreams.

Re: Global Goddess Traditions
I should perhaps also add a caveat, this discussion contains references to Steiner's take on Anthroposophia

Re: Global Goddess Traditions
I liked it and am not at all disturbed by the references to Steiner, whose works clearly qualify as a wisdom tradition and spiritual path. In this regard, the stellar work of Becca Tarnas in archetypal astrology and explication of Jung and Tolkien clearly reflects her Waldorf School education. The return of the Mother is clearly an emergent theme in many forms along diverse paths both spiritual and not. In my view, it is one of the most fundamental ancient/future both/and themes and has led me many times to ask at this forum, "Where is the Mother?"
With regard to Sophia, consider Proverbs 8:22-31, which states:
“The Lord brought me forth as the first of his works,
before his deeds of old;
I was formed long ages ago,
at the very beginning, when the world came to be.
Hard to get more ancient than that.

How do you know I'm not transgender?
Alas the best I can offer is a deep embrace and expression of this psyche's anima aspect ... Come here big fella, and touch a little piece of her heart.Here out of instinct or grace we seek

No problem as long as you are able to perform the generative function. Just don't reduce Her to only providing comfort. One way or another, She is gonna bat last as the household boss of ecology. As Lynn Margulis famously noted, "Gaia is a tough bitch."

Re: Global Goddess Traditions
The significant other, a great mother, says I can generate a good amount of corporeal warmth
... Having never womb-carried or birthed child, from what I've seen of it secondhand, for sure a mother must one tough gal. Mind you, the way surgical and genetic intervention is going, who knows if some male grandchildren may become child-bearing mothers, and not just surrogate stay-at-home-dad ones—which I found challenging enough.Here out of instinct or grace we seek

Re: Global Goddess Traditions
Indeed, we exist in a rapidly changing world. For example, 80% of the middle-class expectant moms in Brazilian private hospitals now give birth via C-section. I'm sure that this will have developmental consequences.Soul_of_Shu wrote: ↑Thu Dec 09, 2021 9:17 pmThe significant other, a great mother, says I can generate a good amount of corporeal warmth
