Exploration of the Dawn of the Era of Divine Feminine.

A fellow student of Dr.Joe Dispenza graciously shared an outline of her notes from his recent seminar in Spain, and I noticed that he touched on the topic of women taking the responsibility of being leaders in this current age. I look forward to hearing more from him on this topic.

Here is my own understanding of “women taking the lead at this time”.

As a collective, we are currently leaving the dysfunctional paradigm of Patriarchy, “Confused Masculine”, which has carried an energy of the fear-based “fight-or-flight” mentality of separation that seeks to conquer, dominate, divide, use, and own.

The emerging era of Matriarchy, “Divine Feminine”, is one of heart coherence, connection, and love. There is now an invitation for us to understand how to lay the ground for this new paradigm. Since “The Shift” is upon us, I think it’s important to explore how we can think in a different way in order to envision a very different future.

Simply put: The fate of our future demands that we change our way of thinking so that we can change our way of living.

Women will lead the way for the collective, but not in the way we have previously thought  of “leadership”. We have to re-define “leadership” in the same way that we will have to re-define everything in our new paradigm. If we resort to our previous way of thinking and being, we will produce the same results. Until now, the collective modus operandi of control and manipulation (in which we have all participated, consciously or unconsciously) has been concerned with “getting what we want” and “seeking to satisfy ourselves with something outside of ourselves”.

The energy behind the modus operandi of the Confused Masculine paradigm played out globally in wars, political power-plays, corrupt governments, dishonest business dealings, lack of essential food and water for many populations, sexual abuse, environmental corruption, etc. Essentially every problem now facing the collective can be traced back to the imbalanced, dysfunctional way that we have been relating to ourselves, to each other, and to the planet herself.

THINK DIFFERENT,

In the confused paradigm, Confused Masculine energy played out as a need to dominate and control genuine feminine energy, primarily because few people remembered what genuine feminine energy actually embodies. The misunderstanding of feminine energy resulted in fear. There’s no blame here; we all participated in perpetuating the old paradigm.

Currently, there aren’t many manifestations of “Divine Masculine” (men who have understood and embraced their own Divine Feminine energy). I think Dr. Joe Dispenza may be an example of someone who has balanced these energies personally (which may be contributing to his popularity). Also, as of yet, there are but few examples of women who have fully manifested authentic Divine Feminine energy either.

We have forgotten the essence of Divine Feminine energy: Unconditional Love.

Now everything is shifting. It had to shift, otherwise we would have created our own demise.

The most obvious way to recognize the confusion of the previous paradigm is to consider how we have been treating our own mother, our Earth. She is Divine Feminine, manifested in full display. How have we been treating our Mother? How have we been relating with our Earth? Do we consider her well-being? How have we been living with her? How have we been listening to her? How have we been honoring her?

Consider the way we tend to relate to each other in an intimate relationship: manipulating or dominating our partner, suppressing our own energy…using ploys to try to "get what we want”…when actually, what everyone wants (and what we’ve all been searching for) is CONNECTION with our partner. We are yearning for Unconditional Love. Yet if both sexes are disassociated from their own true essence of Divine Feminine, the connection of energies (Unconditional Love) can’t be experienced.

No wonder we can’t harmonize with each other. If there’s a lack of genuine connection and harmony between the sexes, it’s because the power of genuine feminine energy has not been recognized and honored. Authentic feminine energy is not being honored because it has been misunderstood, and thus feared, ignored and forgotten.

If Divine Feminine energy has been forgotten, then of course it cant be balanced with masculine energy. The imbalance of masculine/feminine energies creates all kinds of power plays because the fundamental ground of intimacy is missing a key ingredient: authentic Divine Feminine energy.

Men have a sense of women’s innate power, but they tend to be afraid of it because they don’t really understand it. Men don’t know what true feminine power is because they aren’t experiencing the authentic power of Divine Feminine energy being fully manifested in their female counterparts. So men are reacting to what they “imagine it to be”.

The unknown is usually feared. “I don’t know what it is, so I’m afraid of it.”

Women haven’t remembered either. They can’t manifest their own genuine Divine Feminine power because the wisdom of how to access this power was forgotten (in the old paradigm). Uncertainty about their own Divine Feminine essence has weakened women’s authentic manifestation.

Despite this conundrum, masculine and feminine energies still hunger to connect with each other. So we strategize and manipulate, we play games of all kinds. We negotiate, control, bargain, cajole, beg, seduce, dominate, hope, plead, grab, take. Everyone senses that something is off, but it’s hard to name the problem because the confusion of the old paradigm has been so prevalent that it has been promoted in all aspects of society… it’s everywhere! And we’ve bought into it. We’ve brainwashed ourselves into buying the “war of the sexes”, which is a lie. We’ve re-created this lie with our dominating/repressing behavior, perpetuating more of the same. Cultural ignorance around this is so prevalent, we may not have even stopped to consider what the primary problem might be.

We have forgotten the power of Unconditional Love that lives within everyone as Divine Feminine energy. This energy of Unconditional Love resides in our hearts. It is our essence and our birthright. When we touch it, when we connect with it, we remember who we really are.

All we need to do is think outside of the box. However the instructions on how to do this are on the outside of the box.

THINK DIFFERENT.

Connecting with our heart, we are connecting with the energy of Divine Feminine. We can begin to relax with ourselves. We can start to acknowledge and appreciate the authentic masculine and authentic feminine energies residing within us.

Then it starts to get exciting! When we recognize our innate masculine/feminine energies, we naturally start to balance those energies, (neither over-amplifying or repressing any aspects of those energies). Then we can begin to balance masculine/feminine energies within our relationship with our partner. The practice of conscious sex (Tantra) provides a way to develop awareness of the union of those energies, along with a way to remember and re-connect with our inherent state of well-being, presence, relaxation, wholeness…the experience of Unconditional Love that we have been yearning for.

Unconditional Love is the powerful, transformative energy of Divine Feminine that holds space for Other (what is ) and loves it unconditionally, like a mother loves her own child, with a completely open heart.. Unconditional Love is contagious; it spreads. It naturally ripples out to our families. It ripples out into our communities, into our systems and our businesses, into our cultures and our societies. It ripples out to the entire world.

Until now, vulnerability has been regarded as a weakness, thus vulnerability has been avoided and perhaps even feared. If we “love too much” or “love too freely”, we may lose ourselves. We may lose our ground; we may “give ourselves away” or be taken advantage of. We may suffer heartbreak, loss, rejection, embarrassment, disappointment or pain. We are afraid of the wounds that may be produced if we become truly vulnerable and hold a heart of Unconditional Love that demands nothing in return. It might leave us in No-man’s land!

However, the vulnerable and willing heart is the heart of the true Peaceful Warrior.

“The cave you fear to enter holds the treasure that you seek”- Joseph Campbell

The open, vulnerable heart loves unconditionally without any bias or expectation. It loves simply and freely because it loves loving. It is fully complete within itself, therefore it lacks nothing. It is confident, so it seeks no external confirmation. The open and vulnerable heart alchemizes negativity because it perceives all external experiences as its own self, inseparable from self-love. This is the true energy of Divine Feminine. The heart of Divine Feminine loves shape-shifting and impermanence; it loves the transient nature of all things. This type of love always engages fully in the dance of life in the ephemeral present moment.

The open heart is a supreme alchemist. When the heart is in coherence with the brain, it transforms confusion into wisdom, allowing suffering and struggle to cease. A connection to a greater consciousness is created in the union of heart and mind, and  likewise in the union of Divine Feminine and Divine Masculine energies.

Divine Feminine experiences the transient nature of all of existence, completely and fully, as she merges with the experience of NOW.  She opens to all experience without bias or hesitation, just Unconditional Love. And this Unconditional Love provides the container for the Divine Masculine energy of Conscious Action to experience itself also.

All of us were born from Divine Feminine’s womb space of Unconditional Love. Divine Feminine is the Queen of Space who invites the cosmic dance to be experienced within her and all around her.

Divine Feminine’s powerful essence is apparent in Nature. When we connect with Nature, we connect and honor our own nature, our own essence. Nature is the mystery of life on constant display, talking to us, teaching us. She shows us how everything is interconnected. She shows us how life is the constant process of exchange, of ebb and flow, birth and death. She supports us and nurtures us in everything we do…a perfect demonstration of a mother’s Unconditional Love for her children. And she is willing to share her secrets and her mysteries with her children.

To receive her wisdom, all we need to do is be still, observe and listen.

Regarding the previous question of leadership: in creating The New Word Paradigm, women will lead the way for establishing this new paradigm, but only after we recognize that true feminine empowerment resides inside ourselves, not outside of ourselves. Divine Feminine power has always resided in the womb, but we have been regarding our femininity through the confused lens of Patriarchy, so we couldn’t recognize it or honor it. We need a new lens!

The task at hand is to relax and re-associate ourselves with the power of Divine Feminine energy, the power of Unconditional Love. Calm the mind, open the heart. It’s like coming home. When the Divine Feminine and Divine Masculine energies are balanced, each fortifies, honors and empowers the other. As we remember the true power of Divine Feminine, we will reconnect with our own authentic masculine/feminine energies and balance them within ourselves (as the natural thing to do). We can then balance and harmonize with our intimate partner, then balance and harmonize with our friends and relatives. This balance will joyfully spread out into the world, quite naturally. Unconditional Love will spread and become contagious!. Unconditional Love will flourish…and Its power will become unstoppable.

Unconditional Love is the ground for The New World Paradigm.

In the midst of upheaval and uncertainty, may we embrace change, messiness and paradox, allowing all of our problems to melt in the brilliant rays of our limitless hearts. May we find the courage to become our truest selves…healing our wounds, embracing our truth, and dislodging from our dark and murky past.
