Why the Divine Feminine?

In the March 2020 issue of Guide for Spiritual Living: Science of Mind magazine, our writers explore the array of approaches to honoring the Divine Feminine in all. As writer Rebecca Hiraoka explains, “The Divine Feminine teaches us the art and power of presence. She shows up, in myriad emanations in nearly every culture and religion. …

“All of us, whatever our gender identity, are invited to dive deeply into the Divine Feminine and the specific embodiments of this vital life force,” she adds.

Rather than seeing the Divine Feminine as strictly a celebration of women, perhaps this is the moment in our history to celebrate those qualities associated with the Divine Feminine that inbue each of us with traits such as empathy, compassion, tolerance, and listening.

As Hiraoka adds, “There is power in cultivating a practice of honoring and integrating the Divine Feminine into our lives. We are nourished by learning about and tenderly love the specific embodiments of the Divine Feminine that have been cultivated in cultures around the world. The Divine Feminine is alive in our DNA. There is healing in knowing that we are also carriers of this beauty.”

Self-Care Practices Support Your Well-Being

In Spirituality and Health magazine, writer Margarita Tartakovsky, M.S., offers self-care practices we can use to nourish ourselves — mentally, emotionally, physically and spiritually. Those practices are:

1. Set a morning ritual. Remind yourself of the beauty in life.
2. Set an evening ritual to help you unwind and relax.
3. Check your emotional temperature. As she writes, “identifying and processing our feelings is a powerful way to care for ourselves.
4. Engage your senses. Think about what you eat, what scents appeal to you, how your skin feels.
5. Give your eyes a feast — at home or outdoors.
6. Write letters to yourself. Have meetings with yourself.
7. Make a daily list of what you loved that day.

“If none of these ideas resonate with you,“ Tartakovsky adds, “I hope they inspire you to think of other self-care practices that do.”

A Trinity of Unity

—by Ernest Holmes

We have discovered that the Universe is threefold in Its nature.

It is Spirit, Soul and Body. Spirit is the active, projective, masculine factor; Soul is the receptive, creative feminine factor; and Body is the result of the union of Spirit with Soul. The Spirit impregnates the Soul with Its ideas, and the Soul gives form to these ideas and clothes them with flesh.

But this is the Trinity of Unity, a Triune Oneness, for the Three are really One.

Life is androgynous. It contains within Itself both the masculine and the feminine factors. The male and the female of Creation come from One Principle, all come from the One and all will return to the One, all are now in the One and will forever remain in the One.
