As women, we carry the feminine energy of the world, and it is our task to not only honor the feminine in ourselves but also make sure that it is honored both in others and by others. We need to welcome those feminine principles of kindness, consideration, and reverence into both our personal lives to those on our planet so that all of us can move from a spirit of competition and chaos to one of cooperation and compassion.
It is our calling to complete the sacred circle of support by accepting blessings and becoming a blessing. Culturally and socially we have been trained to give to others; but, in order to become an integral and constructive cog in the wheel of life, we must first complete the sacred circle within ourselves--feeding ourselves from the feminine fruits of kindness, consideration, and reverence. From a vessel filled with such fruits, we will be able to freely pour our best into the Whole, giving the bountiful harvest of our love.
Because preparing ourselves to complete the circle is a sacred charge, reverently ask yourself what kind of blessing you would like to become. Are you already blessing yourself in some way? If not, what do you need to do in order to complete your inner circle? What attitudes would you like to change about yourself? What wounds need healing? What compassion do you need to show yourself? (From "The Women's Book of Soul" by Sue Patton Thoele)
