Dancing with the Divine Feminine

Well… the energies right now are truly powerful…and a little chaotic!
Its often a little bit difficult to keep your balance and remain centered when the energy is so powerful!
Yesterday, my friend Jan Custers in Holland sent me some beautiful images of a friend of his dancing….and I was struck by the absolute power and grace in these images! And it occurred to me that the way to cope with such powerful and seemingly chaotic energies from the Divine Feminine aspect of the Source….is to dance. The form of the dance itself lends elegance and grace to the energy of the Divine Feminine.
This dancer, a Dutch woman who is a professional Oriental dancer and goes by the name of Shahrazad, expresses the absolute essence of the Divine Feminine in her body.
I think that this may be one of the keys to running the energy of the present moment. To dance. Maybe literally, but also metaphorically.
For a dancer is poised and graceful and very centered. Part of the art of dancing lies in finding your center and then moving your body around that center to form graceful patterns.
In our head-oriented culture, we have become focussed on the straight line, called “logic”, and we have forgotten about the wonderful spiral patterns of the dance of the Divine Feminine.
The dance is an expression of inner beauty and grace, and the dance is its own purpose and story. Maybe we are learning to “dance” in our lives, to express our own stories with grace and poise. And maybe it is a skill that we are just learning. And so, like many learner dancers, we may be a bit clumsy and fall over our own feet. But, as my angels always say, if you fall down, get up and keep dancing. Eventually, you will dance with grace and poise.
Also, you will find, that as you become more attuned to your body, you will learn to express more through your body and less through your head. You will learn to trust your body and its reactions, because you will understand that it is your whole body that is involved in this dance, and not just your brain or your head. And you will learn to watch the “dance” of others, and to understand what is being expressed on all levels.
I have just been through an experience with some people who said one thing and their actions said quite another. In this case, their words and their “dance” were out of alignment. I was able to see the “dance” because that is what I have become aware of. It is a common problem in our western culture, and reminds me of the old Native American saying that the “white man speaks with forked tongue”….did anyone really say that? Anyway, it emphasizes that people who are primarily head based often don’t “walk their talk”, or in these terms, their words and their dance don’t align.
I guess we are all working on this aspect of ourselves as we work with the “absolute integrity” energy of the 11:11:11 cosmic wave.
Well, from now on its dance practice for me…..graceful, elegant and fully aligned….
