Spirit Ascencion with Spirit Descension -
to Integrate as One, in this divine form.
These teachings offer us only half of a path. The majority of the spiritual teachers & yogis of voice that we are exposed to & inspired by, have been men, not surprising really, as it feels that it is the masculine energy within us that drives us to be teachers & leaders & place ourselves in positions of power & assertive change . The voice of the divine mother speaks such a different language. Of reception, opening, feeling, surrendering, emoting, allowing, nurturing, transforming, alchemising.
Both masculine & feminine energies are within us all. Are the dual aspects of Life itself. Shakti & Shiva , Prakriti & Purusha, Yin & Yang.In the interest of harmony & balance, it feels strongly that this is the time for the depth of the feminine to be truly & authentically felt, heard,, seen & understood now.So that our masculine & feminine aspects are able to truly know themselves & each other, in order to harmoniously integrate, both within ourselves & in relationship with each other & our earth.
In re embodying the divine feminine principles we recognise that divinity is found both within & without. So that we come back to seeing her, feeling her & respecting her, all around us. Seeing & invoking the God/ Goddess in all beings. Respecting & healing the damage we have created to our Mother Earth, & to each other. Re opening our hearts to each other fully, embodying Spirit Here & Now.
Embodying a balanced spirituality that merges discipline with flow, emptiness with fullness, witness consciousness with heart felt compassion, strength with vulnerabilty, manifestation with surrender.
In Dance of the Devi, we focus on yoga, dance & movement &
meditation practices, that connect us with the open-ness, sensory
awareness, receptivity, surrender & radiance of the Divine Feminine
aspect of ourselves. Exploring ancient & contemporay yogic &
tantric principles within the body, we discover how to connect with
& understand the vast & largely suppressed & misunderstood
Sacred Feminine Principle within ourselves.
