This week I’m thrilled to share a guest post I did for Shann Vander Leek’s Transformation Goddess Experience. Here’s a sneak peek at the post, but be sure to head over to Shann’s site for the full piece!
What does it really mean to connect to a goddess?
I wonder why we use that lexicon to connect to the “higher” realms of our being/consciousness. When I look back on the lengthy reign of gods and goddesses throughout history, there is so much strife, entanglement, and suffering created by these so-called deities.
