Woman

Woman,

You are at once a warrior and a healer. In you, deep sky and shallow ground merge.

You are breath of God made human. An explorer of the cosmos, a daughter of the stars returned to this world.

You are fire and water. Your roots point to the centre of the earth, your branches extend beyond the clouds. You are solid like the mountains, fluid like the rivers.

You are priestess and shaman. You are music and silence. In you, the sacred feminine and masculine unite. Nothing clashes or collides. You are tender and fierce. Gentle and firm. Powerful and humble. Brave and timid. Graceful and wild. Soft and strong. Vulnerable and resilient. In you, all finds harmony, life, and repose.

Do not step back. For some, you are the great mystery. For others, you are absolute clarity - a lamp glowing in the darkness. Whatever they make of you:

Stay free, goddess. Stay free.
