WARRIOR WOMAN
by Barbara Ann
(Virginia)
Warrior Woman
Strong, Bold
Not hiding her bravery
Not apologizing for her articulate Voice,
Anchored solidly to the Earth,
Both feet firmly planted.
Deep roots driving down into the warmth and nourishment of Mother Earth.
Artemis…Gaia
Nutrients cursing up through her veins
Blood pulsing
Beating the bold drums of her vibrant Heart.
Courageous enough to burst past herself
Without losing herself.
Holding onto Her own,
With Fierceness in the face of adversity…others’ confusion…assaults.
Warrior Woman filtering through the positive and negative energies
With Her brilliant, wise, intelligent discernment.
Sophia
Warrior Woman acting and waging war when She chooses her battles
With clarity.
Athena
Warrior Woman is Kali – Destruction and Rage.
The power called upon when needed to be the Mama Bear for our children,
Or the survival of ourselves.
Warrior Woman trusting her perceptions, intuition, her gut,
To guide her – steer her on life’s correct path for her.
Isis
Warrior Woman knowing the grace in her soul
Flowing in and out of her.
Compassion for herself, Compassion for others, individuals, globally.
Quan Yin
Warrior Woman owning the power of her body.
Of Herself….Her total Self
Owning the Power of creation and death.
Life cycles experienced in her body…
Birth, Death, Rebirth.
Friends with this power. Known and owned in every cell of Her body.
Warrior Woman is the Great Creatix….
The giver and taker of life.
Iana Asarte
Warrior Woman the Lover.
The naked curves
The craver of skin to skin contact
Venus… Aphrodite
Who knows and celebrates the power of her sexuality in every interaction
Connecting with life.
This Warrior Woman does not apologize for her seductive sensuality
But owns her power…
And says…Yes, let’s Dance!
Since life began, and as it ends, Warrior Woman has been called by many names
and projected in myriads of images.
Warrior Woman’s Strength
Integrates and claims ALL these parts…as Her Whole Self.
She does not hide her power
She is thankful for her strength.
Warrior Woman uses herself wisely.
At times she must Defend herself and Protect.
Occasionally she must wage war, on this earth, in this life time.
She cries for Everyone in all directions when this need arises.
But mostly Warrior Woman loves.
She loves and nurtures with her Whole Being.
She has faced down with courage the fears of loss, death, pain, destruction.
She accepts these realities and chooses to risk in order to
Love, Celebrate, and Partner with those around Her.
Warrior Woman owns Her power uninhibited, unthreatened by others offerings,
Graceful, open, allowing others themselves.
She marches on a path of adventure and discovery.
Strong Brave, Receptive.
Warrior Woman
The Goddess lives and thrives in All of us.
Know Her
Own Her
Allow Her her vibrancy.
