Coming Home to Feminine Spirituality
I cannot overstate the importance of this dream. I knew “I” didn’t create it; it came from a profound source of wisdom deep within me. I think of this inner wisdom as Sophia, the Divine Mother.

Both logos and mythos contribute to our spiritual development. Children use mythos thinking automatically. This is why they respond to life with spontaneity, enthusiasm, joy and wonder. But once the “masculine” phase of external striving begins, logos and the ego tend to dominate our thinking and spirituality and life begins to lose its savor.
Vessels accept, contain, protect and preserve the birth/death/rebirth cycle of life at both the physical and metaphysical levels. Our planet Earth is a living vessel whose life cycles mirror the soul-making processes of psychological and spiritual transformation.

Many thanks for your kind words and warm blessing. Peace, Jeanie
Beautiful, Jean, and I love the colorful family history and tribute to Italian men. I wonder how it feels to lose someone so loved at 103. My mother-in-law will be 99 this winter, and she’s going strong in so many ways, but life becomes sadder and more limited for her. She’s a little fonder of me because I published a book with her son’s photo on the cover. 😉
I’m laughing at your last comment!! I understand it, but since my husband’s mother was Scotch/Irish, I’m not personally familiar with it! Losing Dad at 103 feels bittersweet to me. He was loved, had a full life, and was doted on by women who saw it as their life’s purpose to dote on him. What more would most men want?
