Light beings, Yesterday I wrote a little about what a priestess is- you can find the post here- because I've been getting a lot of questions recently about my work and training (I'm currently in what one might call a masters program and mentorship for priestesses), and also because, there isn't a whole lot of good information out there if you google it. :) There is so much more to say about the history and the complexities of the work (one of these days I will put something more detailed than what you can fit on an IG post together) but for now, I wanted to share about a key component of the feminine/priestess way of healing and supporting growth, freedom, balance, and change which is: witnessing & holding space. In contrast, the more patriarchal (the culture we grew up and live in) way to do this is to fix a person and/or their situation. I do not believe you or anyone needs to be fixed but we all need to be witnessed and held with love. It's more than just listening, its actively listening with your whole heart. When we spend the time without judgement to see someone, hold them, honor them, and welcome them into our hearts just as they are, I have never experienced anything so healing, so true and so beautiful.
