So for this particular muse, I’m going to focus on the Infancy Narratives as the birth stories of Jesus are named and the action of the Divine Feminine in those stories. Too often we attach anything feminine to women and masculine energies to men, but in reality, and thanks to the work of Carl Jung, we know that both energies operate in each of us. It is a day for all of us to honour or own abilities to create and receive energy from the world around us.Mother’s Day seems the perfect time to muse once again on the power of the Divine Feminine and its influence in our lives. We all have feminine energy in us, so Friday the 13th is not just for women. This has also helped to contribute to the fear surrounding Friday the 13th, as it was an important day for many who worshipped the cycles of nature. It is also an extremely powerful time of death and rebirth as it represents that mid-point in the cycle between something new emerging and something old slipping away.įriday the 13th has often been held in high regards by women and the pagan community, and many rituals and spells are often conducted on this day in order to make the most of this beautiful energy.
In fact, for many people understanding their Moon sign can often help to bring more awareness than their Sun sign.īringing Friday and the number 13 together, you can see that Friday the 13th is in fact, a very powerful day for feminine energy and creativity. In the astrology chart, the Moon not only governs our emotions but also our potential and how we choose to express ourselves through life. The Moon is also representative of feminine energy and helps us to understand and deal with our emotions and sensitivities. The lunar calendar is also made up of 13 months, which further supports 13 as holding feminine power. This attitude has helped to contribute to the idea that Friday the 13th is an unlucky day. It was only when society became more patriarchal that women were made to feel shamed when they were having their periods and to ignore their amazing potential to create and hold space for new life. When she was ovulating, she was considered to be at the height of her power and was celebrated for her ability to receive, hold and create new life. She was regarded by all for her wisdom and ability to offer intuitive and psychic messages. Long ago, when a woman was bleeding she was considered to embody divine and magical powers.
Day of the divine feminine full#
The midway point between the New Moon, where a woman is shedding (the death) and the Full Moon, where the woman is ovulating (rebirth). On average the 13th falls in the middle of the Moon cycle and represents that midway point between death and rebirth. If a woman’s periods are in sync with the cycle of the Moon, she will shed her lining on the New Moon and ovulate on the Full Moon. This is because we have 13 Moon cycles every year and the average female also experiences 13 periods per year. The Number 13 also holds an extremely potent feminine energy and is considered to be the number of death and rebirth, creation, fertility and blood.
