Hello, luminous beings, joy with virology here. I am so honored to be here with you today and I'm going to be. I'm following up in this conversation with something that I posted on Instagram about the wise woman, and I've been exploring these different archetypes of awakening and this one was really downloaded to me, and many years ago I actually studied poetry. So once again, I'm cracking up at how everything I've ever done has just started weaving into this now moment, this presence that has come forth through me, this ability to tune in and stay present, and when I do that, I am in sacred flow and in that I am just like really tapped into creativity and downloads. And this one came through and it's really beautiful and it was a poem. And then, of course, I dove a little bit deeper and I was like what are the qualities of the wise woman?

Speaker 1: 1:05

A wise woman holds the mirror. A wise woman doesn't tell you who you are. She doesn't hand you a script or mold you into her image. Instead, she reflects your light back to you, the parts you've forgotten, buried or have been too afraid to claim. She holds the mirror steady even when you flinch, even when you want to turn away. She sees past the layers you wear for protection, straight into the essence of your divine nature. She doesn't shy away from your shadows because she knows they are the doorways to your greatest gifts. A wise woman whispers look deeper, deeper into the doubts, deeper than the fear, deeper than the stories you've been told. She doesn't just see your potential. She sees your wholeness, the sacred self-expression that's already within you, waiting to rise. Her presence activates something you didn't know was there your voice as a tool for healing, your truth as a source of freedom, your sacred self as a creative force. She doesn't fix you, she doesn't save you. She reminds you that you were never broken. To meet a wise woman is to stand face to face with your own divinity, to remember the self you were never allowed to be, to reclaim your voice, your essence, your light. When a wise woman holds the mirror, you realize you've been whole all along. So that's the poem that I wrote about the wise woman archetype.

Speaker 1: 2:44

So who is the wise woman? What are the qualities that define the wise woman and how do you embody the wise woman archetype? The wise woman is a deep vessel of knowing. She's a keeper of truths that flow not only from her experience, but from a profound connection to life's mysteries. She embodies the sacred balance of intellect and intuition, the tangible and the unseen, the finite and the infinite. Her wisdom is not bound by age, though it's often shaped and refined by time, hardship and triumph. It's carved from her willingness to listen to herself, to others and, most of all, to those whispers and cries of the world. So what makes her wise? Well, number one, the same trait that I tell you all the time, that I tell everybody all the time. That is the first trait that must be cultivated, and that is self awareness.

Speaker 1: 3:48

A wise woman knows herself deeply. She is not afraid to look into the shadows of her heart, of her conditioning, of her soul. She is not afraid to turn toward and go toward whatever is arising in the present moment within her. She knows that when you turn toward your wound, when you turn toward your wounding, toward your wounds, that those are actually the portals to presence, that those are the portals to now, because you have to go through that the stuck energy of feeling wounded which keeps you rooted and grounded in the past, because you're stuck in the hurt, versus going through that the stuck energy of feeling wounded which keeps you rooted and grounded in the past, because you're stuck in the hurt, versus going through that wound as a portal to presence. And you go through that wound, unfortunately, by feeling the energy that is stuck there in the body Because, remember, the body is the unconscious mind, which is why your wounds are the portal to presence. Because only when you clear that conditioning, that wounded conditioning, can you stop operating from that place of wounded conditioning where we keep creating that same wound. We keep creating these external manifestations of that wound and our external manifestations are there to simply show us where we are vibrationally. And so if we keep recreating this wound, then we know, if we can look at this pattern of wounding, then we know that it's an invitation to stop running from it, to stop hiding from it, to stop manifesting it, to stop dwelling on it and instead to turn toward it. The wise woman really knows that when you go through that wound, that's how you arise. You come out whole on the other side of that, because you reclaim this part of you that you've neglected. The wound happened, the wound is there, the wound exists and instead of denying it, pushing it away, not wanting to feel it, not wanting to deal with it, we turn toward it and in that we reclaim that part of ourself. Wisdom really begins with self-knowledge. Who am I in here? And then that self-knowing is what radiates outward. And that self-knowing, that self-awareness, that level of self-knowing is how we manifest intentionally in the world, because we've gone through the wounds and the portals of the past to come into the portal of the present moment, so that we can be in self-aware choice, awareness in the present moment.

Speaker 1: 6:21

Number two sign of the wise woman, or the quality of the wise woman, I should say, is empathy and compassion. Her wisdom is rooted in openheartedness. This is not wisdom that thinks. This is not wisdom that's quoting from books and and thingsheartedness. This is not wisdom that thinks. This is not wisdom that's quoting from books and and things like that. This is wisdom that comes from the heart. This is wisdom that comes from lived experience, and she holds space for others from this place in her heart, not to fix people, not to rescue people, but to simply reflect back to them their own strength and truth, because the wise woman knows that if she did it, others can too. She knows that what she has others have too. The powers, the gifts that are available to the wise woman are available to all and she knows that and she sees people's potential and she allows them to see it more clearly. Because the wise woman knows that we are not our stories, we are not our conditioning, we are not the wounds. Having gone through that wounding process, she no longer identifies herself with those wounds, the conditioned self. So she knows that other people are not identified by their conditioned self either, and that's where the empathy and compassion comes in.

Speaker 1: 7:40

Number three is integration of experience and, as I mentioned in the last part of it, this is lived experience, this is embodied experience that the wise woman has. And wisdom is not just knowing it, it's living it, it's integrating it, it's taking those life lessons and putting them to work in your own life. You really walk your talk when you're a wise woman, because to do otherwise would be unwise. And a wise woman learns from her past and she's not imprisoned by it. And in the present, if she makes a mistake, she views it as learning. It's just lessons, and you'll hear her say that no mistakes, just lessons.

Speaker 1: 8:19

Very lighthearted about her own errors and her own mistakes, she turns every scar into a story, like her scars are her stories. How'd you get that scar? Here's the story. But a lot of us wear our scars on the inside and the wise woman is one of those that wears most of her scars on the inside, so you can't see them to say how'd you get that scar. But she might be able to see that scar within you and ask you, how'd you get that scar? And then you can share your story, because the wise woman doesn't need to share her story. She wants to invite you to open up and share your story. She wants to invite you to feel that vibration of safety from someone who lives it, embodies it, has empathy and compassion, is highly self-aware and you can tell she has integrated the experiences of her life.

Speaker 1: 9:12

She's not a wounded healer, she's wise, she lives her wisdom and she reflects this back to you. And she knows that her scars are stories and your scars are stories. And she knows that every challenge is simply an opportunity to growth, that the solutions to everything in life lie in the problems themselves. The problem also contains the solution to the problem. And she knows that, which leads to number four, which is she listens beyond the hearing and she listens with intuition. And to listen to intuition means that you're listening deeply, you're trusting that inner voice that comes from beyond logic, that might say something different to you inside than what is being said on the outside, and it's a deep, ancient knowing that really goes above the intellect, because every way that we listen is a container of meaning. So when people are communicating, you're listening for the message, you're listening for their intention and you ask clarifying questions. And then the other way that she listens, she's listening with her intuition. Now she listens also to her intuition.

Speaker 1: 10:29

The wise woman doesn't just listen externally and hear intuitively, she also listens inwardly to her own intuition and trusts her own intuition, and she is highly intuitively guided. She does not question her intuition anymore. She's beyond that phase of doubt, of doubting her own self, of doubting her own intuition. She knows that her intuition is her direct connection to her nafsha, her soul self, her higher self, that aspect of ourself that resides in the quantum field of all, that is, that communicates with us. She listens to that, she trusts it and her decisions are often even guided by it.

Speaker 1: 11:07

Number five is that she has a connection to nature and spirit. The wise woman knows that everything is one. She knows that we are a field of unity. She knows that when I pull my end of the web. It pulls the end of the web over there. She knows she doesn't live in a vacuum. She knows that what she does impacts the whole and she feels the responsibility of that. She's also attuned to the rhythms of nature and she really tries to pay attention and guide her life by the cycles of the moon, these very rhythmic cycles of nature and the moon and it's it's a very fluid dance of the divine feminine and she honors the sacred and the mundane. She honors the sacred and the most mundane thing of all, which is ourself. Going deep within to connect with the sacred in the flesh and then to live from that place is the deepest connection. And her wisdom comes because she is in harmony with nature, with flow, with and with spirit and with herself, and she flows in this beautiful divine harmony.

Speaker 1: 12:18

Number six is fearless truth telling. But her sort of truth doesn't cut. Her sort of truth is a beautiful bomb that you can feel ring through to you as a truth in your soul. And she speaks the truth with clarity and grace, even when it's difficult. Her words are not painful. She understands the power of her voice to heal, to uplift, to inspire, to empower and if it's got the power to do those things. It's also got the power to do the opposites. It's got the power to destroy Right. Our power is our tongue. Our power is our tongue, and she really takes her word. What she says as also being sacred, because it's an expression of the self.

Speaker 1: 13:09

Number seven is her resilience and surrender. She has danced through grief, she has danced through joy, she's been to the depths of despair and to the heights of love, and that's part of the journey of the wise woman is to be this vast container, this vast vessel of human experience, of human lived experience, so that she can have empathy and understanding. And because she's bounced back, she knows that you can too. That's that resilient spirit. And even still, she knows when to hold on and she knows when to let go. Again, those rhythms, when to hold it, when to let it go. She flows with life's currents rather than resisting them. She surrenders. And there's a strength in surrender, there's a softness in surrender, because when I surrender my will and how I want something to go, and I stop forcing my will and how I want something to go, and I stop forcing it to go how I want it to go, and I surrender, I can now go into flow instead of force, and then things unfold in ways I could have never, ever have foreseen, because I don't have that vision that spirit has. I can't see what spirit can see for me, and so I know to surrender, and the wise woman knows to surrender and that she knows when to let go, she knows how to bounce back because she is resilient.

Speaker 1: 14:32

And last is number eight, and that is that the wise woman is of service to others. Wisdom is not for the self. Wisdom is not for the self. That's ego. If you're thinking you're all wise and you've got all this wisdom but you're keeping it for yourself, that's your ego. Your ego always wants to exalt the self. And the wise woman, any of these spiritual archetypes that I'm writing about and creating here in co-creation with spirit, are not to serve the self. If it's of service of self and it's selfish, then that's from ego and it's spiritual bypassing, it's spiritual narcissism and it's mental masturbation at its finest. I'm going to say it. So this energy of being of service to others is that my wisdom is to share. My wisdom is to lighten the load of others. My wisdom is if I can shortcut this process for you from point A to point B and I'm like, oh, I took that same journey, here's how I did it, if it's helpful to you.

Speaker 1: 15:44

And she seeks to uplift others and guide, not from a place of superiority, of thinking she's better than. We're not talking about a cult leader here. We're talking a person who's leading from love. She's guiding from a place that is just so much love for humanity, because once you realize the divinity in yourself, you see it in others because, again, she's connected to the natures and to nature and the unity and the all that is. So the wise woman holds the mirror up to others because she knows that the greatest gift that she can offer is to help others see themselves as they truly are. I know that's so true. I know that I love when a wise woman holds the mirror up for me so I can see who I truly am, and I love it when I can do that for others. It's so beautiful, it's one of the most beautiful experiences I feel like there is. And she shows you your light and your shadow. You have to see the shadows. You got to see the shadows so that you can turn toward them and shine your light on them and walk through those dark places by the guidance of your own inner light, having that courage, having that resilience to turn toward the wound.

Speaker 1: 16:58

And she never imposes her answers on others. She does not give advice. The wise woman does not tell you what you should do and in fact she won't even offer advice. If you're speaking to a wise woman and she's listening to you and you're sharing a problem, more than likely she's simply going to be silent and listen to you. She's not going to reflect back any advice. She's going to reflect back your own strength. She's going to reflect back your own ability to step into that solution of your own problems, of your own life.

Speaker 1: 17:31

Because the wise woman knows that if you shortcut the path for somebody, you're shortcutting their growth, you're shortcutting valuable lessons that their soul might need and then they're going to have to repeat that lesson because you shortcutted it for them. And this is part of wise parenting too, that we don't shortcut these things for our children. We have to let natural consequences happen. That's part of the wisdom of learning of life. And yes, it hurts to watch people go through these things, but then it's also beautiful to watch people go through these things when you have reached it to this place of resilience and transformation, transcendence and actually it's not even transcendence, it's intercendence, it's intercension, because this all happens in here, it all happens in the temple of the body, and the wise woman knows that too.

Speaker 1: 18:24

The wise woman isn't perfect, she doesn't try to be perfect, she doesn't want to be perfect. She is very aware of her own human, flawed nature. And, most of all, the wise woman knows that she knows nothing. The wise woman knows that her way is not the way, her answer is not the answer. It's a way, it's a answer, and it worked for her and it might work for you, or it might not. And so it's really.

Speaker 1: 18:55

The wise woman reflects back to you your own sense of inner trust and listening within. And that is it for the wise woman and I'm going to be doing Magdalene path of illumination. And it's walking that path of illumination and what it unlocks in you is really profound and I'm so grateful to be a steward of it. And then, of course, processing all of these things through how I do it, which is through joy, through sound, through art, through dance, through drumming, I invite you to visit me at vibology V-I-B-O-L-O-G-I-Ecom. You can take a sacred vibrational class for self-expression to get into this feeling of who you truly are and express from that place and, of course, join me for soluminous, my beautiful modality that I use to help you get into your body so that you can heal the traumas of your body, you can awaken the truth of your body and you can become who you are here to be. All right, loves, I'll see you next week. Be blessed, bye.
