Hard truth: “Be nice” was never a survival strategy; it was a muzzle.

Bare feet press into loam that hums with the memory of lightning strikes and funeral pyres. The ground does not judge rage, it recycles it. Somewhere in the march of empires, we were fed a lullaby: Real women are soft light, serene smiles, forever forgiving. Whole forests fell behind the choir screen while that tune kept playing.

Where the Lie Began

The cloistered version of femininity arrived with iron bars hidden in hymnals. Goddesses who once wielded sword and storm were rebranded as cautionary tales. Kali became “demonic,” Lilith “dangerous,” and the Morrígan “mad with blood.” Patriarchy learned early that discrediting the guardians keeps the gates open.

Rage is grief that has remembered its job description.

This rising heat is not an aesthetic, it is an immune response. The dark feminine appears the way fever does: hot, unyielding, purging infection so the body can heal. Calling that fever an illness is like picketing the ambulance because the siren is too loud.

Carl Gustav Jung (a Swiss psychiatrist and psychoanalyst who founded analytical psychology) warned that what we refuse to meet in the mirror turns into fate. Witches speak the same law through a different phrase, as within, so without. Integrate the blade or swing it blindly. The dark feminine hands us a mirror, a torch, and a scythe, then asks, “Will you perform surgery or keep feeding the tumor?”

Remember Sekhmet (ancient Egyptian goddess), the lioness summoned to scorch a land choking on its own lies, later praised as healer once her fire became light. Every lineage holds a story like hers: a woman weaponized by calamity, then sanctified by the crops she saved. Purge, plant, protect, repeat.

Anger is not the opposite of love; apathy is.

When we defend rivers from poison or bodies from legislation, we extend the lineage of those lion‑hearted foremothers. The dark feminine is a birthright, not a brand. She calls us to choose allegiance to the living world over allegiance to comfort.

If your boundaries upset abusers, congratulations, you just found the edge of the lie.

Ritual: The Bone Drum Walk

Solo rite to ground righteous anger and convert it into living power.
