Permission to love the source of love
9 januari 2012 | Door: KlaraAdalena
The Great Mother, she is the core, the centre, the axis of this book- and she could be more central to your life than you are aware of. This stunning book makes visible and tangible the source and power of love. It gives us permission to love the source of love. The Great Mother is, among others, a symbol of the heart, and this book is a documentation of the ways of the heart to outlive and outsource the power of mind. A tribute to the Great Mother in all her aspects, a book that brings a smile and sigh of relief to your heart. In this time of craziness it is so good to read how that what has always been of solace to the people can not disappear, will not disapear, and is rising up after having being crippled. The Great Mother, the Strong Woman, is waiting to be untied. Thos book is a must read for everyone with a heart.
In 'Women Who Run With the Wolves', Clarissa Pinkola Estés joyously and powerfully took us along into the woods of our psyches where the Wild Woman lives. The book was an immense succes, a million copy bestseller, filling the deep need of women at that time, 20 years ago, to come forth from a life too tidy, too organized, too protected, too politically correct. Estés comes with a new book- Is that need no longer there?
'Women Who Run With the Wolves' still sells well, and as a trainer and Priestess working with women I can say: yes, women are still looking for more space in their lives, more space to be a woman, to be wild, to be wise. Do read 'Women Who Run With the Wolves'! What has changed in these years, is that we have more sense of direction. For many of us, our spiritual lives are calling or even flourishing, and we dare say now what was still unspoken 15 years ago: the Divine has a very powerful feminine face next to the male counterpart. And: we want to be transparant, about everything, and certainly about our spiritual truths, our lifestyle and our ethnical background.
In her very own breathtaking uplifting right-to-the-core style, merging Jungian archteypes, stories and everyday experience with ease and grace, Estés takes you on a ride with the Great Mother. Making herself and her life tangibly present on every page, Clarissa Estés opens us to the big truth: the feminine divine has always been there and still is. She may be hidden behind whiteparched walls, she may have been sewn into the hems of long dresses (true stories, humoristic yet heartbreaking, from the pages of her book), but she still is here, right amongst us, and many of us adore her like She adores us. She is the love that wells up when everyone has left you, She is the spring that makes the grass come up green after war has ruined the fields, She is the one thing that is stronger than death.
What you will not find in this book, is the intimate experience one can have with this Divine Mother. Still the Great Mother in each of her aspects does inspire people to go beyond joy and pain, into the realms of ecstasy- as you can see in the trailer. When you create an intimate bond with this Divine Feminine, learning more and more to allow your system to receive all her blessings, unabashed, going beyond the lowering of your eyes or the shake of the head, the rewards are great. The intention to live this limitless love of the Great Mother opens up a path, timeless, walked by priestesses – female and male- of all times and cultures. The path of a saint, a mystic, not marrying with God but becoming daughter, sister, beloved and mother of the Divine Feminine. This path became clear to me thanks to puzzling together many sources, and the wise fairy tale of Vasalisa, as presented by Clarissa Pinkola Estés in her bestseller 'Women Who Run With the Wolves', was one of them. I owe Estés a lot because of this, and I am sure 20 years from now many will say the same about 'Untie the Strong Woman'.
