‘Akhilanda represents the essence of the Phoenix; she’s the indestructible energy that embraces change. Her full name is Akhilandaishvari. Ishvari in Sanskrit means female power or goddess and Akhilanda means never not broken, so she is the goddess of never not broken. She can never be broken, because she always is. She is the embodiment of what we try to avoid–the dissolution of our ego’s identity. She radiates the potent light and joy that’s the goal of change, transformation, or pain. There is very little written about her; she is meant to be known through experience. She is an intimate, interior goddess that we meet when we are in the darkest moments of grief and heartbreak. She shows us where our energy is trapped; where we have been stifled in routines or other’s expectations of us. And she whispers the liberation we will experience once we let ourselves break open, and allow the new expression of our self to come blazing through. She reminds us that we always have the power to choose to see every event as yet another opportunity to become more light, to become more of the radiant soul we are here to be.
When your soul selects her card:
Many of us exert tremendous energy in the effort to not break or fall apart. We resist our grief. Our heartbreak. Or we deny the need to change until the choice no longer feels like it’s ours. Something side swipes us from our ordinary life and shatters who we think we are and how we identify ourselves. Here’s what Akhilanda reminds us: vulnerability is our greatest strength. If we are always broken, we can never break. Akhilanda is the most intimate, and personally powerful goddess because she meets us in those moments when we can feel most alone, most exposed, and most afraid. She models how to thrive in the midst of change; she uses pain to joyfully and purposefully transform. She sees everything as an opportunity to release what isn’t serving her. And she knows that being broken isn’t a failure, or something we should avoid, it’s actually the whole point. We are here to let our ideas of ourselves go up in flames, so that beneath the ashes, the soft core of who we truly are arises. And so that we remember that it’s not the heart that ever breaks; it’s the ego. The heart only ever expands. ‘

Mary Magdalene embodies the capacity we all have to merge with the soul and receive divine guidance through a love that never ends. Mary was born in the first century in Magdala, Israel. She was the first to witness the resurrection, and for this reason is revered in Christianity as the Apostle to the Apostles. Author and Episcopal priest Cynthia Bourgeault relates that the Gospels of Thomas, Philip, and Mary Magdalene all reveal Mary not only as Jesus’s beloved companion, koinonos, but also as an equal partner in teaching and transmission. (p.42, The Meaning of Mary Magdalene.) Bourgeault believes that Mary Magdalene’s gospel contains a secret teaching that Christ gave to Mary so that she could pass though the seven stages to reach the soul, or the nous, which is the highest point of the soul. And it is this union with her soul that allows Mary to see the risen Christ.
In classic iconography Mary Magdalene is associated with an egg and the color red because of an Eastern Orthodox legend. It says that she used an egg to teach the court of Tiberius Caesar about resurrection. Caesar doubted her and responded that a person could no more rise from the dead than the egg in her hand turn red. The egg turned red immediately. Legends relate that Mary then traveled to the south of France to escape persecution and to continue her ministry. It is believed she lived the last thirty years of her life in the caves at St. Baume. There she met with Christ with a love that inhabits the human heart but that lives on beyond it.
When your soul selects her card:
Mary Magdalene represents the fierce, unwavering love that we all have access to within our own vulnerable hearts. It’s a love that renders all things sacred from the animals to the angels, from the poorest to the most powerful. It’s a love that sees the inherent worth of all things. And it’s a love that remains, even through the darkest times, even through death; her love is the one that resurrects.
The Gospel of Mary Magdalene relates that Jesus came to unite us, to demonstrate to us a “true human being,” an “Anthropos,” meaning a person who is both fully human, and fully divine. This is what Mary became and it’s why she was so beloved to Jesus. She didn’t seek to follow him; she sought instead to become her true self.
Mary Magdalene reminds us that we have the power to receive vision from within. We are worthy of such proximity to the divine because that’s the other half of what it means to be truly human. She reminds us that there’s a bridge between heaven and earth, and that we are that bridge. And she wants us to remember that the truest church we can ever enter is in the heart. This is where our true power rests and where love never ends. “

Parvati embodies the divine strength of devotion; she is the mountain that love becomes when we devote ourselves to another and to our own soul. Parvati is the Hindu goddess of fertility, of love and devotion, and of divine strength and power. She is the gentle, nurturing aspect of Shakti, or feminine energy. She is part of the Tridevi, a trinity of
powerful Hindu goddesses together with Lakshmi and Saraswati.
Parvati’s name means “she of the mountain.” Her icons and depictions date back to 400 BC. She is Shiva’s wife, and holds his trident, and she is the mother of Ganesha, the Hindu god who removes all obstacles. Shiva lives with Parvati in her house on Mount Kailash. Their favorite pastime is discussing Hindu theology. Traditionally in India women go to live with their husband’s family, so this reversal reveals Parvati’s priority and power. By living on Mount Kailash, Shiva becomes a part of Parvati’s lineage. She is the bond that connects all human beings, a bond of love that helps our souls evolve.
When your soul selects her card:
What is soft, gentle, and nurturing like water can be far more powerful than what is inflexible and fierce. The energy of this mountain goddess is about the strength we can give and receive when we devote ourselves to the healthy bonds of love. Parvati is about the divine feminine potency of being a calm, benevolent presence especially when
something seems to threaten a deeply meaningful relationship. Transformation with this goddess calls for a softening. When a situation is hard, even moments when our ego has typically fled infuses us with the capacity to transform all of our relationships. Devotion is not attachment. It’s letting go of the illusion that you and this lover, this
friend, this child, or family member, this soul within you can ever really be separate from you. Devotion brings us home to the point and purpose of every relationship; love. A love that can never leave, and that like a mountain can never move. A love that evolves the soul. “

2:22--"When the Gods send you a blessing, you don't ask why it was sent." (An instrumental of Moses' mother's lullaby floats in)

I love that bit. For all the credit and praise people give Moses for his role in the story, it all started with his two mothers--his biological one and the one who raised him. Those two women lived in a world dominated and ruled by men, existed in completely separate social spheres, and had different ethnic and religious backgrounds, yet they transcended all those things for their love of the same child. Beautiful. It just goes to show how powerful the Feminine, in both human and divine form, can be. Blessed be. )O(

Our lives are made of stories that manifest in and around us. At first, they may seem like complete (incomplete) nonsense. What is this substrate we’re swimming in? Rhymes? Poetry?
Relaxing into the flow of it, there is no doubt that it supports us in expression and absorption; it is nourishing.
We have sometimes thought of it as a foil; if onlookers might somehow detest our naturally strengthening substrate, we will not broach the most important subjects. It wouldn’t be safe to do so.
But if our substrate endears us to others, if our substrate is curious and nourishing to others --- then we will be able to talk about what really matters.
One step can lead us to another.
What substrate supports you best?
What is your substrate energizing?
What do you need to talk about in safety, support, and belonging?
What really matters?
What’s resonating?

this weakness is a valuable catalyst
I sort of remember coming into this pattern of publishing at any moment it felt most right, the rhythm of it being healing and stabilizing. It seemed to put me in immediate contact with my own self and with some collection of others resonating on the frequency. So it would be 5:00 a.m., 5:15 a.m. I believe actually, and my body would be ricocheting through strange subtle responses to the poisons being introduced to it, most of them misled, lied, or gaslighted about. It would be 5:15 a.m. and I would be wide awake, wondering why. Too much unaware of how my natural cycles were being squeezed, molded, pushed at, pinched. And very faintly realizing how perfect and right it was to imagine myself leaping up, donning shoes, going out running through the dark and pre-dawn morning mist. I figured it out later. Many times, I tried and balked at somatic obstacles, no idea about all the poisons. I mean, inklings. Little ideas here and there, but nothing that stabilized. Like building on sand. And then a lot later on, as the poisons built up and my function repeatedly failed... well, what would there be to do about it anyway? We have all continued to choose this hell. The men with the money say the poisons are good for us, no harm at all. With all that money, they probably know what they're talking about.
