Watching a movie of about Queen Elizabeth, the idea of courageous women working within society's patriarchy. Taking on the disguise of Mary, the virgin and mother goddess to all, gave Elizabeth I a way to guide her people. Each Queen of her time struggled with how to protect the country's future without tying herself to a man. Take Cleopatra for example, she knew how to snake her way into having a Greek prince heir and seducing the noble hearts. She was trying to preserve her culture and people. And then Queen Nefertiti who with her husband change the Egyptian religious landscape to a single divine god without gender. Although Nefertiti's husband had several wives, she was the people's queen. Too bad Prince Charles had to keep his other wife Camella underwraps until Diana passed. Oh, irony....relationships and politics evolve as the rebels thorny actions and deeds serve.
In the age of the father, woman who reflect goddess move men's hearts, become the living divine. In the age of the daughter, the veil between women and goddess self doesn't exist. We are all goddess women.
Namaste,
Alysha
