The art of listening

The Female energy at this time has a longing to be heard. 
She will stop at nothing to be heard, to open her throat chakra, to connect to her womb, and get in touch with the scars that have been there for centuries.  Our womb is connected to our throat, our 6th and 3rd chakras.  Our womb contains and holds a woman wisdom, instincts and power.  Therefore, anytime we do not speak our truth, our womb is not being heard, it continues to store more and more energy.  Luckily, and by the grace of god, there are those of us that menstruate to release this energy every month with the moon.  There is a Universal awakening of Sekhmet at this time, and she is relentless.  You know and can sense, this undeniable FIRE. Rage. Anger. Guilt. Sadness.  And most importantly, right now, it needs a voice.  She needs a voice.  It’s asking to come out, to be heard, to be spoken.

This anger stems from many places.  It can be seen between sisters, between women.  
How have we betrayed our sisters?
How have we judged our sisters?
How have we not supported each other?
It’s calling for us to come together in unity, in equality, to nurture, to support, emotionally, physically, spiritually, and in power.  To moon together, to pray together, to lick each others wounds, and build each other up.  In resonance with father earth.  Yes, Father Earth.  Our Siva.

Can you feel into the anger?  Of all the times you said Yes, and really meant No, with fears of judgement, abandonment, or rejection, or not honoring your needs. Of when you said No, and really meant yes, but didn’t out of fear of judgement, that for once you wanted something, your truth, but were afraid of “how it would look”.

Theres an innate want to be heard with men.  When a boundary has been crossed, and we want to speak it.  With love, compassion, or even anger sometimes.  That what happened was not okay, or out of respect to another, we do not say it.  There have even been many applications based on this:

• Nonviolent communication: where we learn to speak our emotion, our feeling, and make a request, in which the other person, listens for the need, and request from a non-violent compassionate place, and either chooses to accept the request or declines.
• Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus:  masculine will get linear, analytical, and debate, while the feminine doesn’t want anything fixed, just to be heard.  To know her feelings are acknowledged.  While a man is listening to “how can I fix this?”

It is all so confusing, and yet so easy.  So why are we still going through this?
Why is it so hard to actually speak our truth and have someone listen without judgement, thats not just the job of a counselor.  IF we truly love someone unconditionally, it shouldn’t matter how they choose to live their life.  It’s not our life.  It’s their own experience.

We as women have held back our voice, our wisdom, our true nature.  Channeling the compassionate goddess of love to help heal the situation.  Yet theres still energy that needs to be released.  And if we cannot open to others, its up to us to transmute it?  Unfortunately…yes.  Another job as a woman, keep the peace, and say nothing.  Ignore that which is bad and focus on what is good.  Can help, but what if we want to teach others the ethics of right and wrong?  Whew…it just feels like an uphill battle.
