Dale Allen opens her dynamic show, "In Our Right Minds" with a journey through the historical subjugation of the female and all things "feminine." She concludes with an invitation;
"As the co-creators of a new paradigm, together, let us close the book."
Those of us raised with a Judeo-Christian perspective have been seeped with incorrect information.
In our story of female, the behavior of Eve in eating of the "tree of knowledge of Good and Evil" in the beginning is marked as original sin.
The serpent is touted as a representative of Satan who tempted Eve with the invitation to come to the "Tree" and eat in order to know Good and Evil.
Those incorrect interpretations leads to the incorrect thinking about women:
a. Women caused the family to be driven from the Garden.
b. Males are more highly valued by "god"
c. Female, by nature, is a temptress
e. That to learn to "taste and know of the existence of "Good and Evil' is
forbidden.
Women sang the Garden into existance.
Their story has been twisted and the result is that women have been locked out of their Sacred Feminine Mission and their Divine gifts.
Our families and our world have suffered.
