"“The new femininity is to establish the value of inwardness, and of affirmation (but also conscious clarification and differentiation) of whatever is. It is open to -- and able to integrate -- woundedness, pain, and ugliness, as well as joy and beauty. The sensuous is to be valued no less than the spiritual; the intangible no less than the concrete.” “The archetypal role of the new femininity is to stand as a priestess of the fullness of life as it is, with its unpredictable pitfalls and unfathomable depths, richness and deprivation, risks and errors, joys and pains. She insists on personal experiencing and personal response to the needs of the human situation.” The idea is to transform the chaotic power of the abysmal Yin, the Medusa, into the play of life, to mediate the terrifying face of the Gorgon into the helpful one of Athena. “Life is to be lived and savored for its own sake, in sensitive interplay with earth and cosmos as living organisms, rather than as dead objects of exploitation for the sake of economic or technological ‘progress’.” There is needed the awareness that hurts can heal us, “receiving into consciousness and clarifying feelings, fantasies, and desires regardless of their moral or esthetic implications. It also means separating emotion and motivation from action.” The challenge is “to think and feel through everything that may present itself, and wait for its hidden symbolic message, rather than to act out or sweep things under the rugs and let sleeping dogs lie. The new woman (or the anima in a man) will have to champion and protect the need to live through and experience everything that (lest it threaten established order with chaos) has been repressed by the patriarchy.” The key is to avoid the temptation to deny, repress the experience, and do something instead! The idea is to be. "

I am feeling really deeply into this.

This last few days have been soooo 'deep and dungeon' for me. I knew bad stuff was waiting and I got there in the end.

The visions and dreams were like signposts that lead you in, then Wham! you ARE IN. And you stay in till.....Ok I know this wierd. I thinks its a BIG PLUTO gift. An initiation and I am trying to remain reasonabley human to get on with the human stuff, but I am compelled not to deviate from whats going on inside. Lunacy probably...

Its like liquid gold. Not the bright shiney 'Gold Bar' gold that would be like a Great gift....but Liquid gold is where you have to think it out, and feel the gift that it hides, before you get the gift.
Sorry I can't explain this stuff. Now even I don't know why this makes perfect sense to me. It just seems to fit perfectly, reflecting back the sitch...(as in situation) and if you read it you will know its just about pain. I found today http://www.halexandria.org/dward387.htm

But somehow its of the vibe I find myself in at the moment... It falls in with a nod from Chiron, opening my deepest wound and then continues with a trumpet blast from Pluto, heralding a rather unplanned journey into the potholes of my psyche....This is such a Blast!! We are having a party, just us three.

Any way read if it resonates, look at the Descent, it might be a way of getting through the maze of inner psyche stuff, that maybe is just waiting for you around the next corner....

The other thing is some music by Weekend. I am listening to this and it is strangely lovely.

Its definitely not spiritual This is human stuff. I know this is weird but it fits in with Inanna's Descent and the wound.
