We will Birth a New Era (The Rising Power of Mother Consciousness)

I was born an American woman. That fact informs my perspective in this lifetime. I learned as a little girl that American Women have twice helped lead the way to the correction of massive injustice at home that then trickled out to influence the world.

First, the Suffragettes who introduced the then radical idea that women should be allowed to vote. In the face of doubt and profound opposition, they organized themselves and accomplished just that.

The Women’s Movement worked tirelessly toward the goal of equality for women (personal, social, political and economic). And my goodness, what they were able to accomplish! We stand on their shoulders today.

It is commonly expressed that the Women’s Movement produced an army of women imitating the only “power” they had ever seen valued in the workplace. In the effort to stand side by side with the men, they took on Masculine Power, therefore leaving behind their greatest resource, the expression of their true nature.

The next big movement is unfolding now.

I don’t know about you but I feel something rising up in me. It’s been slowly awakening for a long time but in the past year it seems I have had and internal growth spurt. I see it awakening in women and organizations all over the planet. It’s potent and powerful and bound to cause the next revolution.

What is it?

I call it Mother Consciousness- a state of being in which an individual woman thinks, acts and speaks as if she were the mother of every child on the planet and that the earth were her very home.

This Mother Consciousness lives in every woman and is expressed in varying degrees. This Mother Consciousness brings about a fierce kind of love. This love protects & nurtures all members of the village, especially the babies and those who are too weak to fend for themselves.

This Mother Consciousness leads us to honor the earth by stepping lightly on her. This Mother Consciousness empowers us to shamelessly use our intuition (knowing that cannot always be quantified) to guide us. Mother Consciousness fills us head to toe with compassion (loving wisdom). Mother Consciousness teaches us to let our truth be our compass. The Mother Consciousness inside of us understands a community’s power to transform a neighborhood, a country and the world. This Mother Consciousness stands beside Father Consciousness to care for the well being of our home (the earth) and the children (of the planet, us).

This is a large part of what we will be exploring this Saturday in Workshop. My aim this weekend is to guide you to unite with this force of Mother Consciousness within you, whose power is vast and colorful.

Here at the WILD Woman Project we spend a lot of time looking inward with aims of truer expression in the world. While it is necessary and powerful work, there is an inherent trap there: living in a bubble. I believe there is a way to stay true to you-your faith, your heart, your mind AND look out into the world + engage it.

Let’s play with this “looking out” today.

Looking Out Exercise

I will write the exercise and use my personal answers as an example below. In the comments section, I want to hear from you and I am sure your sisters and brothers do too. Let’s get started.

First, write down 3 challenges/problems/injustices happening in the world that deeply disturb you.

(Mine:
1. Corporately sponsored politicians more indebted to those corporations and than they are the health, education and wellness of their citizen’s.
2. The astronomical Military budget in the United States while we are in economic crisis.
3. Truth being withheld in the mainstream media due, in great deal to the attack on journalism in the name of national security, by the current administration. Journalists seeking to tell the truth are being fired and blacklisted.)

Second, ask yourself, “What will I do this month to contribute to the resolution of these 3 problems?”

(Mine:
1. Pray for fearlessness and a clear mind as I look these issues square in the eye.
2. Research credible sources of information (outside the main stream media).
3. Talk to the smartest people I know and get their take on these issues )

Third, surrender this to the Universe/God/Divine/Mother/Source/Your Inner Guide by letting it be known that you are here to help in whatever way this higher power wants you to. Listen to the messages you receive from this source. 

In honor of our new theme this month, “Living in Service”, revisit this list each week. And repeat step 3 when fear and hopelessness start sneaking in. You can transform your thoughts, words and actions by simply asking for help.

Now is not the time for the myths of separateness and fear. Now is the time for you to do what you were born to do in the world, in the way you were born to do it. Your life is not an accident, dear friends. You came here with an assignment. Of course the details of that assignment are between you and God.

Practice letting your voice be heard in the comments section here. Please share steps 1 and 2 with your WILD family. I would love to hear your perspective.

When you register today for this month’s WILD Woman Workshop on Saturday, you save $10. We will be working on Aligning with Service (Mind, Body, Spirit). You will leave feeling in tune with your inner Mother Consciousness and energized with purpose. I can’t freakin’ wait to see you.

With a Mother’s WILDish love,
Chris
