The priestess is the feminine archetype of stillness, silence and centered presence. From this feminine place of reception, she becomes the keeper of the keys, the guardian of the female mysteries; only from the place of inner stillness can divine knowing actually flow. The Priestess' transcendent function in the Mystery is she represents the universal flow of the divine feminine and balance within that flow; through intuition and feeling she is a guide into the unseen realms.
The shadow aspect of the priestess can be seen in the human psyche, as over subjectivity, becoming so lunar and intuitive as to be ungrounded or unattached to the Earth plane. The Priestess's gateway is meditation; divination with oracles; ‘presence’-ing beauty; reflection; knowledge of symbols; color; poetry.

We are entering the 3rd month of 2013, which has been prophesized as marking the beginnings of a whole new cycle of our cosmic evolution. The year 2013 is about fully celebrating the joy of allowing your physical body (chalice) to be full of light & love and hence be an active pioneer of a new humanity through the Heart.
The nature of the Priestess is to contain, to center, to transduce and transmit. We are being called to BE the Divine Transmission station of the Open Heart.

Oracle of Delphi by John Collier[/caption]
The Chalice is a symbol of the Priestess. The nature of the chalice is to be empty, in order to contain. We are being asked in this moon to empty out, to clear away, to cleanse, to simplify in order to be empty enough to receive the new that is trying to come rise to the surface. Whether that container is your body, your relationship, your home, or your life in general, now is the time!
As a sacred tool in the Mystery, the function of the chalice is to train consciousness in the transduction of subtle magnetic frequencies of resonant information. Our bodies are a chalice, our human chalice contains water, and we are made of water. Water is the consciousness of Mother in form. Water is the medium of directly evoking and resonating with the frequencies of the Divine Feminine. Water holds the power to cleanse and dissolve. It is the conscious intelligence that is held in elemental resonance. Water holds the power to heal through purifying release and is the receptive nature of the Goddess.
So as the Priest/tess you are asked to be more like water: to be receptive, fluid, and non- fixed in your perception, choices, and actions.
As you consciously embody in your human body and daily life the energy of the chalice, you will perceive through the elegant simplicity of Emptiness. Step into the chalice that represents noema, direct knowing.
We are the Planetary Priest/ess's that will heal our waters, our earth, our bodies, with our consciousness.
The Priestess is clear of vision because of her honesty. Be true and honest with yourself and you will be in harmony with the cosmos.
Hold the lantern high and be an illuminator for those who appear to be lost in the dark.
Be still, be centered, be balanced, and be the Visionary that is creating worlds with your inner sight.
Spring Equinox March 20th is a time when Mother awakens! Seeds begin to sprout and the sun comes out to warm us from our winter hibernation. Just as the seeds have been held in the dark matter of Mother Earth, our vision seeds that were planted on Winter Solstice 2012 are ready to blossom as we open our hearts and celebrate Spring.
Feel the Spring in your heart, feel the Love in your heart, feel the fountain of Joy that you are!
Celebrate our Humanity as it awakens to its Divinity!
