We are off to Isla Mujeres tomorrow, Women's Island. There I'll visit
the ancient ruins of the Temple of Ix-Chel, Mayan Goddess of Love,
Fertility, Midwifery and Medicine.

The island and Ixchel have
been calling me like a magnet since we got to Playa just over a week
ago. This is my third time here and I've never felt this strong a pull
to go there.
I will be taking some offerings for her, and saying some prayers. I invite you to say a prayer for something that is in your h
eart,
not to write here but just to hold in your heart, and tomorrow as I
visit I will pray that she hear those prayers in your heart.
As a thank you that your prayers are answered in a good way, in the
best way for all, make an offering of your own to this beautiful
representative of the Divine Feminine: offer a flower to the ocean,
plant a seed, do whatever feels right to you.
We used to be so
in touch with this way of living. Then when we woke up many of us,
myself included, focused on our connection to Spirit, to the Masculine
aspect of the Divine.
For many of us the Feminine remained
repressed or under-valued, yet now she is awakening our bodies, hearts
and souls. The continuation of her repression tends to create extremes
of depression or explosive outbursts. Our feminine within is seeking
release, creative expression, and acknowledgement.
The Feminine wants you to Receive. In receiving you are able to give everything.
