I'm kind of obsessed with cannabis and spirituality and have spent hours upon hours of reading and researching about this wonderful plant. I think that this aspect of cannabis can really get lost amidst all the states and countries making it legal and it turning the cannabis industry into anything other than sacred.
So today let's touch on the divine feminine energy that cannabis embodies and how we need to start creating a better balance between the masculine and feminine energies present in our society.
At the present time there is a huge imbalance between these energies causing us to constantly seek growth which turned into over-consumption, war, greed and corruption. These energies are what is responsible for the prohibition of the cannabis plant. The only agenda being to be in control of something that Mother Nature gave us.
Prohibition of the Divine Feminine
The Divine Feminine energy embodies the qualities of unconditional love, wisdom, gentleness, patience, accepting, forgiving, nurturing, welcoming, kind, intuitive and healing.
The Divine Masculine Energy embodies the qualities of love, strength, consistency, trustworthiness, loyalty, protective, leadership and resiliency.
Each of us contain both the divine masculine and feminine, the light and the dark, the yin and the yang...
But for so long the divine feminine has been stifled as we grew into a society that is embodying a huge imbalance and toxic masculine energy that is built on masculine principles. We are over-consuming and destroying our environment for greed and pointless gain.
Cannabis embodies this wonderful Divine Feminine energy.
Not only is the most potent and beneficial part of the plant the flower that comes from the female plant, it's also one of the most caring and nurturing plants on this planet that has evolved with us since the beginning of time.
Hemp can provide us will all sorts of building materials, nutrition and things like fuel and clothing materials. The seeds are incredibly nutritious as they are super high in plant based protein, they have a perfect ratio of omega 3s and 6s, it's easily digestible and the oil from the seeds can be used to make a variety of products with healing properties.
The compounds in cannabis flower are perfectly intertwined with the endocannabinoid system in mammals. The plant literally works synergistically with our bodes. It heals us, nurtures us and can provide us a way to open our minds and see beyond the illusions of reality. It provides all of our needs just like the Divine Feminine.
Unfortunately we have accepted and normalized the prohibition of this sacred plant as well as the characteristics of the Divine Feminine in all the things that we do.
Much like a mother breast-feeding her baby, cannabis embodies the nurturing energy that we so desperately need to save our Earth Mother. Both have become taboo topics in society and usually stirs up a reaction from the toxic masculine society that we are in.
The Toxic Masculine:
When I mention "toxic masculinity" it isn't to make the masculine "lesser than" the divine feminine. It is defining the imbalance in the masculine that has led to government and corporate greed and the masculine military industrial complex that has deemed cannabis illegal and has been suppressing the Divine Feminine for centuries.
The prohibition of this plant is beneficial only to a few, and legalization as we are seeing it in Canada right now is only again trying to gain control of something that should be a basic human survival staple. The only agenda is to control the profits and distribution.
it would be less profitable to have something growing freely that would help heal people from their ailments rather than seeking medical attention and being prescribed prescription medication that causes all sorts of awful side effects to keep the customer... oops I mean patient coming back in a vicious cycle.
The leaders of the world have worked very hard to gain control of the people. Their goal is to teach the collective to undervalue our basic right to compassionate and sustainable alternatives. They managed to gain our "willing" consent to strip away our natural environment and destroy our planet in the name of profit.
The Divine Feminine influence on our culture and the collective has diminished as our focus become more on patriotic global elitism. Entire civilizations are out of balance leaning farther towards the masculine rather than the nurturing, caring, natural way of the Divine Feminine.
Our most influential institutions have become competitive instead of cooperative, controlling instead of empowering, scientific rather than creative.
We are taught through the education system these unbalanced values and just pass our problems down through generations. We've allowed cognitive dissonance to take over.
The Toxic Masculine nature thinks it neats to destroy to create, we think we need to go to war to obtain peace in the name of patriotism. Let's define patriotism - love of country, the desire to compete with other nations, celebration of men's influence on society.
Matriatism is the feminine equivalent to patriotism which means devotion to Mother Earth, sustainability, peace, survival, celebration of women's influence on society.
Cannabis is a gift from Mother Earth, from the Divine Feminine herself. There is no question that there is a desperate need to seek more natural and caring alternatives to honour our planet and reconnect with the feminine energy that is lacking in our society.
There Is Another Way
Ancient cultures and civilizations all over the world were built on more feminine principles. We need the mothers and grandmothers of the world to teach us giving instead of forcefully taking and to teach us to care for our plant and one another.
We need to return to a more natural way of live. Including the use of cannabis and hemp to replace all the awful industrial and agricultural practices that are the norm today. We need to return to our roots and accept the loving and caring feminine energy that the earth is so desperately asking for. Cannabis is just the start of embracing the Divine Feminine energy and caring for the earth while also allowing the earth to care for us.
It starts right here, now, with you.
All the mothers and grandmothers need to teach the young about the importance of caring for the earth and showing them to implement more sustainable ways, teaching compassion and love, to acknowledge the Feminine in harmony with the Masculine.
It is also up to the fathers and grandfathers of the world to teach the ways of the Divine Masculine, and not the distorted version we see in society today. They must teach the young to honour the Divine Feminine and help guide the culture, families and communities towards balance and honouring the Divine Masculine qualities such as loyalty and protection.
The Divine qualities of both energies are rising and I believe that we are heading in the right direction. We are coming to a point where the truth cannot be hidden any longer. People are waking up to the patriarchal world we live in and we are ready for a change. We are ready to get back to a more healthy balance that will lead to a better world.
