Many think about Friday the thirteenth to be an unfortunate date, maybe with out actually even realizing why. Considered by way of one other lens, Friday the thirteenth might be seen as a fortunate and sacred date of honoring the Divine Female rising on Earth and inside us all.
I sense and really feel there’s a highly effective alternative accessible right here and now, to reclaim Friday the thirteenth as time to honor the Divine Female – Divine Mom God. A time to expertise Aliveness, Oneness, Unity, Love with the One Stream that’s Divine Mom God Consciousness Shakti and Gentle.
Why Friday the thirteenth?
There are very robust correlations between Friday the 13th and the Divine Female.
