Summary

The web content discusses the unique nature of feminine enlightenment, emphasizing that it transcends the concept of 'woke' and involves embracing the sacred feminine's embodied birthright of love and creation.

Abstract

The article "An Awakened Woman" delves into the distinctiveness of a woman's journey towards enlightenment, contrasting it with the commonly misunderstood notion of being 'woke'. It posits that true enlightenment for women is not about achieving states previously defined by male experiences but about embodying the Great Mother, the Creatrix that is the source of all love and existence. The text suggests that women's awakening should not be equated with martyrdom or suffering, as these are constructs of oppressive systems that fear the divine feminine power, or Shakti. Instead, it calls for a redefinition of feminine awakening that aligns with the love and creativity inherent in the sacred feminine. The author encourages embracing the perspective that every womb births consciousness, setting the stage for our life experiences, and that we are all continuously furthering our awakening within the Great Mother's womb. The article concludes with a call to anchor light and birth new worlds through our awakened wombs, expressing gratitude for the readers' engagement in this profound exploration of feminine spirituality.

An Awakened Woman

I’m not talking ‘woke’ here, which term, if I’m honest, describes a lifted-veil state having its own value as a stepping stone in the evolution of consciousness, but residing nowhere close to true enlightenment. The enlightened state is uninteresting to most beings traversing the human experience, as it renders a human identity obsolete.

I can report that nirvikalpa samadhi manifests differently through a woman’s body than through a man’s. One becomes the womb of all creation, the Creatrix who is the Great Mother of us all, of whatever kingdom, whatever star system, whatever culture, whatever gender, embracing every divinely aligned vibration as her own. If we, who wear the body of the sacred feminine, keep striving for what male bodies have experienced as enlightened states of being, we will not only miss out on our embodied birthright but on the essence of love that is the foundation of all existence. We must choose to exit the human timelines and trajectories of conflict and competition, to first ride, and then become, HER waves of love. The Great Mother’s love contains every expression, including tough love, however gorgeously packaged.

As we intend and receive, so we become. What is an awakened ‘woman?’ What is an awakened manifestation?

“Don’t need me…BE ME!” she calls through every heart.

Feminine awakening is often equated with saintlike status, which invariably evokes the self-sacrifice of martyrdom. It is sometimes said, especially in Western traditions, that women come to ‘God’ through suffering. Calling bullshit in every dimension! That belief was set in place by systems of dominance and control, those who fear the Shakti, the fire of the Devi, which exists beyond all limitation.

What if we embraced the perspective that every womb births consciousness? What if it has always done? When we dial in the astrological configuration of our entry portal and choose the genes best suited for a lifetime of experience and expression, we are setting parameters in consciousness. We are choosing our play of light and shadow. Regardless of our choices, the womb of the Great Mother births us all.

Think of it from the perspective of an actor of stage or screen. The role is not the person and the person is not the role…lest we forget. The actor plays a role, then drops the persona, perhaps retaining a few key quirks or integrating tricks and tips along the way. So do we all, as we move from incarnation to incarnation.

We are all furthering our awakening, re-birthing ourselves from within our Creatrix, at every moment.

Anchoring light, our awakened wombs birth worlds. What realities might we now express?

May all beings awaken the inner temple of HER love…and may we continue to open and unfold its expression, lifetime by lifetime, petal by petal, reality by reality, unto Infinity.

No matter how often we sit in/as cosmic consciousness, we can always ask,

“How small has been my lens of perception, and what is there still to learn?”
