In the stable, in the cosmos, on the altars of cathedrals and mud shacks—the spiritual presence of Mary embodies even more than cosmic beneficence and profound unity. In her are merged a poignant array of pathways to the sacred whole. She is the collective soul of many cultures, each seeing in her its deepest roots.
She brings into the present moment from our paleolithic past the unbroken stream of female forms of the Divine. She links the Old World with the New. She is invoked as the patron of seas, springs, and hills. She is called the Queen of Heaven yet dwells in the spiritual sanctuary of every heart attuned to her.

okay but the female tummy is the center of the universe and the origin of all life as well as incredibly extremely beautiful. i am just saying. so if you see soft lady tummy and go 'eww' there is undeniably something unwell within you, like something in your brain is busted. i make the rules! sorry!

All will be well, with God’s help (I say in a rosarian, goddess-worship way)
I have always struggled with the idea of god being both all-loving and all-powerful. If she is both, why is there so much suffering that is no one’s fault? Such as childhood cancers? This is something I am still working to understand and learn more about. I’m open to others’ opinions!
I have seen some confusion lately on what beliefs are deanist and which ones arent. I also think Deanism is becoming much too broad of an umbrella term. Deanism has very specific meaning and beliefs that differentiate from other goddess faiths. Very very few religions are truly Deanic, and that’s okay.
For one to be a deanist, you *must* agree on *all* of the following:
1. God is wholly good (omnibenevolent).
2. God is transcendent
3. God is immanent within creation, but doesn’t exist as a physical being. (God is not the universe itself/we do not worship Gaia)
4. God is wholly and exclusively Feminine, in name, form, and pronouns.
5. God exists in and of Herself. She has no consort. One can be a deanist and believe that other gods exist, but they can not be equal to God the Mother.
6. God the Mother is heavenly and Solar.
7. God is all-powerful
8. God is all-knowing
This isn’t meant to disrespect anyone’s beliefs. If you disgrace with these key points, that is quite alright. Do what feels is right in your own heart. Dea is different to different people who worship Her, I only wish to express what makes Deanism “Deanism”.
May She be with you always
All things flow from [Sophia], arise in Her, embody Her as a wave embodies the ocean… To know Her is to know yourself. To know yourself is to know the world, Her children, as your siblings.

Hi could you elaborate on everything
It's love
I am Love, which the vast expanses of evil can never still.
Description of God according to St Hildegard
There is no judgement where there is love. Collecting my thoughts on god, whatever she may be. 💗 Lesbian
