Excerpt from Woman Most Wild: Three Keys to Liberating the Witch Within



        The ebbs and flows of the great Earth’s natural cycles live within you, Witch.
        Know the wild feminine as circular, and concerned above all else with the
        interconnectedness of all things. That logical left brain of yours wants to separate,
        fragment, and linearize all that you perceive, but your generative, intuitive right
        brain knows a deeper truth. In your cells you know that this world lives in you as
        much as you live in it. I call this magickal life for which you are destined your
        spiritual integrity, but in truth it is your physical, mental, and soulful integrity as
        well. The rhythms of nature are the rhythms of your energetic womb, the cycles
        of your emotions and creative work,
        and the continual, spiraling
        understanding that divinity exists in it
        all, forever and always. The
        recollection of your embodied cycles is
        the key to the broom closet’s first
        lock; without this, your Witch
        consciousness remains dormant.




        The intentional embodiment of your
        wild rhythm is integral to your
        spirituality because it grounds you
        firmly in this world; it creates
        opportunity for continual affirmation of
        your sexuality and creativity as
        hallmarks of your very nature. There
        is no great chasm between your
        enduring spirit and your holy, sensual
        self. The rhythms of the wild world are
        proof of your holistic being. Your sex
        and your spirit were forced into a
        divorce long ago, but now, now let
        these two parts of you be reunited under red satin sheets. The first pillar of wild
        woman spirituality is the marriage between the Witch’s whole being — that is, her
        soul, body, mind, and spirit — and the cycles of the world around her. You are not
        merely in the world, my love; you are of the world.




        When a woman’s life becomes isolated from the cycles of nature’s magick, she not
        only experiences a starvation of soul and spirit; she begins to question her sanity.
        The psyches and bodies of women are meant to wax and wane, swelling and
        thinning out with much majestic variability. The feminine is neither even-keeled
