The Fire Inside

But rather than fearing this inner knowing, as Wild Women we embrace it. We surrender to its guidance. For when we not only listen but also rely on our intuition, we know what we need, what is good for us, and what we hunger for. When we are at one with our wild and true nature, we trust ourselves. We are surefooted.

Like Tara, I firmly believe that at the absolute level we are beyond gender, and any notions of gender are limited and not our true nature. At a relative level, men and women are different, and that difference is precious. I am not in favor of women becoming more like men in order to be acceptable and successful. We don’t need more men, or more

I became aware of a whole new perspective on feminine and masculine energy, and that’s when I realized the key that was missing. Instead of trying to fit my body and its biological rhythms into a paradigm clearly suited to male physiology, I needed to create a paradigm that included my physiology at the center.

This is not the path of giving more of ourselves to the world at the cost of our deepest knowing self; this is the path of finally, finally learning to trust that we already know everything; we just have to learn to remember.
