6. THE FEMININE PRINCIPLE

Below is my definition of the feminine principle as it appears in my book, TALKING THE WALK, The Grassroots Language of Feminism © 2008.

1. Survival of the self; and the procreation and protection of life.
2. Fulfillment of human nature; development of all potential to its highest ability.
3. Embodiment and will of the principle.

The feminine principle is a matrix for understanding what’s wrong with the patriarchal paradigm and for redefining, re-conceptualizing and developing the power we need to destroy its lies and deceptions. These must be replaced with knowledge and communication of the laws of nature as they relate to a civilized society and healthy planet. This can only be done with the products of women’s intelligence, experience and imagination which have not yet entered the common consciousness.

If we are to save the earth, we must each personally commit to working toward the fullest realization of the feminine principle. It must become a way of life. We, our children, grandchildren and the future of humanity depend on it.
