As I took a stroll down to the rose garden at the park in our community, I pondered on the eerie aspect of the conversation I just had with my friend ( whom I call Sister from time to time) of the paths we cross that are so similar. I was lead to call her after I did a cord fire ceremony to break the ties I had with my estranged biological father. I shortly found out that she was dealing with heartaches about her father as well, their disapproval of our husbands who were not of our same ethnical background had a hold on our heart strings.

” Surely, all this can’t be waved off as a coincidence? “, I kept on asking Spirit as I walked and mediated in the rose garden. Mother Nature has her ways of providing me answers and soon enough the answer was right under my nose. The rose I was ushered to walk straight into was calling my name and I couldn’t resist but take a look at what was being marveled by another elder female. See the picture below at the rose that captured my attention and allow it to captivate you as well.

I searched for the name of this blessing, a glorious red with orange shades rose, and the name plate said “Frida Kahlo”! I had a vision of her yesterday in my bedroom and without out a doubt, with this sign, I knew Spirit was telling me to write next about women empowerment being the solution to this women collective pain my friends and I are going through at the same time.

I call it a trauma bonds because we magnetize the energy we put out and allow into us, not saying this is totally bad, that includes solutions and answers to unsolved problems. Together I did a restorative- relationship sibling bond cord tie for my friend and I and we both forgave our siblings, letting go of the burden of resentment and hatred to be replaced with forgiveness to most importantly ourselves. Let go and let be…

The Buddha oracle card that wanted to share wisdom, that I drew for today, to address the subject of Women Collectiveness Trauma Bond is 1,000 Armed Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara (see picture below). Please keep note that this deity has both male and female aspects. Bodhisattvas are not solely male or female but at that stage of enlightenment they have become both gender. Gender probably doesn’t matter when you get that far up into ascension ;). I had sent this picture to my brother whom I addresses as She/Her sometimes because he is gay and is comfortable with me addressing him that way. I shared this with my brother because as a child I can remember both of us being in awe when we see her in our Buddhist temple we attended to growing up. This brother has a soul of a woman, as they accepted it, so I consider them going with this same tide of this Women Collective Trauma Bond all the female spirit. As the Bodhisattva no longer has a gender tied, I see my brother as a female because his personality and likes lends more on the feminine side of humans and not judging him by his outer appearance. So speak to this Bodhisattva about being compassionate to the world and, in the mirror (a practice I will share in another blog) at yourself. She is like all mother ready to multitask with her many arms. She will create a master piece out of us, what we thought were broken pieces of our heart, failures and set-backs. Let her guide you in your dreams to a wholesome and healed path.

Eckhart Tolle speaks about “The Collective Female Pain-Body” in his book A New Earth. There was a genocide of women during the inquisition what we would call the witch hunt. There was a wipe out of a whole tribe and I believe those that are reincarnated from that awful era must come together now to break the ties of this pain and suffering. We can free ourselves by sharing our beliefs and creativity, holding space for each other – whether that is physical space to speak or through prayer (prayer is what I do often being an introvert). This blog is how I recover my “witch pain”, as a female tarot card spiritual practitioner shared with me her female collective pain named it. Don’t allow things to hold you back from shinning your natural talents and abilities. Call it witch pain or trauma bond whatever it is, I encourage you the only way through it is to hold it by the hands and embrace your femininity. I dare you to live your dream and be the woman you wish to be, this is the only way to heal that reoccurring pain and suffering of many lifetime. Now is the time, by being simply you!

In Light and Love Om Peace,
