“My political activism always grew out of my spiritual
understandings of the Earth as the living Mother
because the Goddess is injured wherever there is
injustice, wanton cruelty, poverty and pollution.”

“The ‘medicine woman’
is one of the most forgotten
and suppressed female
archetypes in human history.
She is the wise woman,
the visionary, the seer,
the intuitive, the healer,
the sexual priestess,
and truth-holder.
She holds the gifts of
energy, healing, and
expanded consciousness.
She sees the past and future
and sees deep into the hearts
of others.
Her passion is to serve
and restore harmony,
balance and healing to
Humanity and the Earth.
She is the aspect of us that is
ready to return as part of a
greater Human Awakening.
In our pre-patriarchal past,
during arguable hundreds of
thousands of years,
the Medicine Woman occupied
an celebrated position in her
society.
She served her community in all
parts of the globe in myriad ways
as shaman, wise woman, midwife,
herbalist, oracle, priestess,
sacred dancer, seer, and queen.”

“What is acted out on the female body parallels the larger practices of domination, fragmentation, and conquest against the earth body, which is being polluted, strip-mined, deforested, and cut up into parcels of private property. Equally, this pattern points to the fragmentation of the psyche, which ultimately underlies and enables all of this damage.”

Celtic Goddess Arianrhod, is known as the Goddess of the ”Silver Wheel”. She is a primal Welsh archetype of feminine power,
As the Goddess of the Silver Wheel, Arianrhod is said to magically weave the tapestry of life and death.
She resides in the far north on the magical island of Caer Sidi. The ancients believed that her castle is in the Corona Borealis, the group of stars that revolve around the North Star. Poets and astrologers learn the wisdom of the stars at Caer Sidi. .
Caer Sidi is also known as Annwn, the Otherworld, land of the dead. Arianrhod is responsible for the souls of warriors who fall in battle. She gathers and transports them to her domain. There, in the Northern sky, whirling around the enduring stability of the north star, Arianrhod presides over the fates of departed souls, nurturing and protecting them between lives.
