BECAUSE, whether I am a woman or a man, I am so programmed to see a man’s world that I become enmeshed in patriarchal games of domination.
The thing is: no matter my choice, and whether I sign up to play the victim or the bully, I am still misusing Power. This makes it impossible for me to feel that the Force is with me!
This is how, every once in a while, I need to be reminded of who I really Am – a being whose brain is created male and female. So “God” or Netflix sends me a superhero to inspire me to vanquish dark Powers, and to know that the Force is with me in this “Princess-process!”
My challenge is to save the Princess (that is, the right side of my brain) from the dungeon in which she is jailed. I must be “Prince enough” to face the dragons that block my way. Only then will I be able to be with my beloved (me, myself, and I). Yet how can I come into that much valiance when I am myself entrapped in the prison of “not enough?”
“For my ally is the Force, and a powerful ally it is.”

WHY the Formidable Force of the Feminine?
BECAUSE denying the dark side of the Moon for too long unleashes a primal and ancient hunger that will destroy everything on its path until its message is heard, understood and received.
Just like you, I have known pain, loneliness and despair. Just like you, I bleed when pricked. I am you, an ancient soul who came back from the future to “digest” a specific area of greed, and play my part in healing the Earth.
Greed is more than a rapacious desire for wealth. It is a will directed to Power; to controlling me, us, it – the world! It is the voice saying: “I can stop anytime,” and can’t hear its own screech. It is the anxiety that won’t quit, as it fears life in “$care City!” It is also and foremost the neurotic thought of revenge, whose terrible pain will one day lead me to give and forgive.
“Our virtues and our failings are inseparable, like force and matter. When they separate, man is no more.”
Nikola Tesla
My will is directed to Power because, deep down, I feel that I don’t really have it since no one hears me. Therein is potentially my greatest pain: that the gifts I am bringing would not be accepted. This is what enrages me the most. This is what leads me to become violent, and want to do harm.
Just like you, I am learning to be honest. This is the only way I will ever be free of this terrible yearning that is not so terrible after all, as it will drive me to THE END of my fairy tale, when I see the Beast transforming into Beauty…
