Modern Goddess

Emma Mildon asks, is the future really female?

The four foundations of owning a goddess (r)evolution:

Responsibility

Owning your place, your contribution. Understanding that none of us is above another person. That’s the illusion that keeps us divided. Take responsibility for all our energy, the good and the bad. We take care of ourselves, we take care of each other and we take care of earth.

Compassion

This is not a fight. There are no enemies amongst us. There is always opportunity for education. Conflict is a call for compassion, not a call to charge. The goddess’s goal is to never turn her back on something that needs love and nurturing (as tempting as this can be). We vow to care – forgivingly, empathically, sympathetically.

Unity

A goddess’s role is to bring people together. Circles. Covens. Communities. We cross-pollinate consciousness and seed new insights, be it as small as inviting a woman over for a cup of tea, or as large-scale as a gathering of hundreds. When we unite we greet each other with that energy and the equal respect every single one of us rightfully deserves.

Power

There are no winners and losers. Celebrate each others’ strengths, not when someone fails. It is a shift. The choice to do right. The choice to include, to forgive, to love anyway. This is your power. No matter what has been taken from you, what society has or hasn’t allowed you, what labels or beliefs limit you – your choice, your response, your action is your power.
