Message from Vesta

If home is where the heart is, call on the Roman goddess of household abundance and well-being, Vesta. She energises the home with a welcoming energy for bountiful, healthy food and comfort.

The butt-kicking super goddess

When I say, Greek goddess Athena knows how to kick butt, I’m not talking about her anti-smoking habits. I’m talking about her ability to pick up her sword and defend her home-town of Athens and all that which was rightfully hers.

A self-actualised goddess

A self-actualised goddess:

* Celebrates her physical body and her connection to Earth, family and humanity

* Is comfortable with infinite abundance, emotional flow and creative freedom

* Is proud of her Self and her actions in all her aspects

* Fosters mutually fulfilling relationships at all levels

* Speaks her truth with diplomacy and shares her learnings with grace

* Clearly knows what is right for her, and acts in honour of her innate wisdom and intuition

* Revels in her divine purpose/work with gratitude, dignity and generosity

Message from Amaterasu

Life’s too short to hide in your cave forever. This was definitely the case for the Japanese sun goddess Amaterasu who refused to come out of hiding. She did eventually venture out to share her radiance once again.

A sea of "yes"

For every No you hear, there is a sea of Yeses around you.

Just like astrology

Just like astrology, goddess energy defines who we are and what our life purpose may be. In astrology, the alignment of stars and planets influence our personalities, values and choices. In Goddesstrology, it’s the season your were born in that influences every action, thought, projection of self, and treatment of others.

Your secret weapon

Your secret weapon in fighting negative self-image messages is your attitude. Understand that your body is a temple, a pleasure and a treasure. Be proud of your tummy that is feminine and round, walk tall like the warrior queen that you are, and wear your clothes as if you're the world's greatest glamour puss (which, as we know, you are).

Life's inherent gifts

The more we can learn to celebrate and honour each death within our own life, the greater our appreciation and gratitude of life and its inherent gifts.

Message from Tara

With her third eye and eyes in each hand and foot, Tibetan goddess Tara sees beyond the mortal veil into eternity. She reminds us that all things pass and each moment is perfect.

Create your day - your fifth step in marrying yourself

Create Your Day. Now that you are your own little solar system and the brightest little star at the centre of your own cosmos, it is time to invite family and friends who love you as much as you love yourself, and to help you celebrate your rocking divinity. Picture your perfect ceremony in your head, see the smiling faces of your friends as they witness your joy, play with wedding vows until you have the perfect expression of your perfect self.

~ Anita Revel
SelfLoveAffair.com

Be your own best friend - the fourth step in marrying yourself

Be Your Own Best Friend. Tell yourself jokes. Spoil yourself rotten. Keep yourself entertained by doing what YOU want to do. Write down a promise to self that you will "never put baby in the corner." Flick "friends" that dare to support habits of self-loathing. Become a magnet to new friends that are a reflection of your perfection.

~ Anita Revel
SelfLoveAffair.com

See yourself as goddess - the third step in marrying yourself

See Yourself As Goddess. Begin to notice your perfections when you look in the mirror. Receive compliments as graciously and copiously as you give them. Say "yes, yes, YES" a lot, with revellious and delightful energy. Practice shameless acts of joy and master joyous acts of shame. Affirm yourself daily with delicious words including "magical, mystical, sparkling, juicy, ethereal, beauty, intuitive, divine." When you see yourself as Goddess, this is the gorgeous energy you radiate and hence, you begin to attract similarly gorgeous people into your life.

~ Anita Revel
SelfLoveAffair.com

Throw out self-loathing - the second step in marrying yourself

Throw Out Self Loathing. Looking in the mirror and criticising your imperfections? Laughing off compliments and dismissing nods to your brilliance? Flying under the radar so your super-stardom goes unnoticed? These are classic signs that you have a degree of self-loathing. Self-loathing only serves to block you from finding happiness within. When you radiate unhappiness, you attract unhappy people. Unhappy people are generally commitment-phobes. So get over yourself girl, and repeat after me: "Self-loathing is for suckers."

~ Anita Revel
SelfLoveAffair.com

Set your intention - the first step in marrying yourself

Set Your Intention. Work out what you want to achieve by marrying yourself. For example, "a lifelong commitment from a partner in a relationship that exudes happiness at every turn." Before you can expect this commitment from someone else, you must first promise that you will do everything in your power to give this to yourself, every day.

Message from Kwan Yin

Chinese mother of compassion, Kwan Yin blows gently into the lives of those seeking a source of comfort and peace. Her values are about balance, sharing, harmony, co-operation and partnership; she is weightless and free thanks to highly tuned tolerance and acceptance.

Lessons from Pam

The paparazzi love focusing on Pamela Anderson's breasts, Posh Beckham's Size Zero wardrobe and Nicole Richie's anorexia. If any of these girls were in touch with her inner goddess, she'd understand that it takes more than big knockers and boyish hips to be sexy. She'd understand that every crease tells a story, every curve is defining, and that with age comes wisdom. And most importantly, artists and men LOVE curves in women!

~ Anita Revel

Lessons from Shazza

Sharon Stone exercises so much, there is an obsession-related syndrome named after her. If she were in touch with her inner goddess, she'd be happy with only 30 minutes of moderate exercise every day to keep her blood flowing, her metabolism firing, her immune system strong and her fitness level up.

~ Anita Revel
Beautiful On The Inside = Beautiful On The Outside
BOTIBOTO.com

Lessons from Posh

Victoria Beckham, Nicole Richie and others are reportedly losing their hair. If they were in touch with their inner goddess, they'd know to eat a beautiful variety of fruit, vegetables, whole grains, nuts, seeds and protein every day to nurture their bodies, keep them alert, strengthen their bones and nails and give their hair a healthy shine.

~ Anita Revel
Beautiful On The Inside = Beautiful On The Outside
BOTIBOTO.com

Lessons from Paris

Paris Hilton freaked out about the prison-issue beauty products - a bar of soap. If she were in touch with her inner goddess, she'd know that eight glasses of water each day is generally enough to nourish her skin, organs, mind and attitude. Water fills out your wrinkles (or "laugh lines," as modern goddesses call them) and makes your skin glow.

~ Anita Revel
Beautiful On The Inside = Beautiful On The Outside

Subliminal message for successful women

Now, as any girl who has read gossip magazines knows, it can be really awful to look at the skinny Size Zero swanettes in their swanky clothes and flash cars - it can make a girl feel a little inadequate and frumpy in comparison. But when I looked a little closer at the subliminal message that women must be skinny, rich and shallow to be successful, this is what I found.

Stand-out blissing

We have a thousand things a day that entertain us, inspire us, humble us and teach us, but there is always at least one stand-out thing to be grateful for every day.

Message from Persephone

Persephone spent her time between being Maiden of Spring and Queen of Darkness, proving that it is entirely possible to stand wholly in your power no matter what the circumstances.

Transcending earthly borders and time

Pre-dating Astrology, however, are the ancient gods and goddesses of all time. Each culture had its own divine being or pantheon of deities, yet they all transcended earthly borders and time with common attributes: security, creation, power, benevolence, judiciousness, wisdom and divinity.

Love is like jello

Love is like jello - the more you try and hold onto it, the more it squeezes out of your grasp.

Blissed Be

Blissed be the peacemakers for they shall be called "daughters of Goddess."

This is, of course, a variation of the beatitude made by Jesus (Matthew 5:9). The scribes who recorded his story have only referred to sons of God, which paves the way for women to claim our own interpretation of this beatitude.

Hence, we proudly claim to be daughters of God/dess (we acknowledge sacred balance in the male/female), and offer our prayers for peace in accordance with this beatitude.

Be blessed and blissed be :-)

~ BlissedBe.com

Death is our teacher

Ultimately death is our greatest teacher. For when we lose all that we hold dear we reflect upon what is truly valuable and discover not only who we truly are, but also the nature of things.

~ Tanishka
(The Inner Goddess Makeover)

Message from Diana

Diana’s short skirt is not for attracting male attention, but is more a symbol of freedom. This Roman goddess of nature remains free to leap through the forests and touch the sky with her outstretched fingers.

~ Anita Revel

A whole world of rainbow beauty

Inside you, there is a whole world of brilliance and beauty. Imagine the incredible inner terrain that is you: the great oceans of love, the mountains of achievements small and massive already made, the fields of wildflowers singing your name, the rose gardens dedicated to you in your honour.

This whole big amazing world inside you. Try not to focus all of your attention on the little overgrown lot that needs some tending to. Remember, there is a whole world of rainbow beauty inside you.

Dare to be brave

***

What I just want to say is this life isn't as painful as it was. I don't feel as stuck or alone or as angry and confused anymore. All I feel is that I am GLAD that it all happened... because here I am, awake with my beautiful heart, dreaming of new ways that life and love are possible.

I dare to be brave, be loving,
be vulnerable, be filled with delight,
be open and be even more
my own beautiful self."

Message from Oya

Oya is the African goddess storms, tempests and rain, dances in spirals representing tornadoes and wind – her winds of change sweep away the old in order to prepare for the new. She wreaks destruction so that you can find and prepare for underlying calm.

Blessings

***

Give special consideration to the word blessing. It is a word which we raise up to God / Goddess / Spirit / the Universe in prayer. With humility. We ask for showers of blessings in order to further experience peace and the wonder of our higher consciousness: aka BLISS. We do so without ego or selfish intent. We do so for the greatest good of all. You can ask for abundant blissings by doing Daily Salutes, practising Sacred Vigilance, or even by asking for it via the Love and Blissings Book.

Blissed be :-)

~ Abundant Blissings

This power is your birthright

****

More often than not, we have been educated in left-brain dominated curricula – maths, science, and in my case, even religious instruction was taught by formula. Art, drama and other right-brained pursuits were generally considered ‘electives’, or not as essential in ‘real life skills’. But what this style of education did was teach us to think logically rather than foster creativity.

We learned to live in our heads and we lost touch with our bodies, our signals, and our receptors to the greater environment. We became disconnected with our authentic and powerful selves – our primal connection to Mother Earth and her nurturing gifts. Learning to trust your own wisdom begins with re-connecting to your authentic power. This power is your birthright, your god/dess-given gift, and your most effective guide for your beautiful journey.

Being easy on your Self

.
Being easy on yourself also entails releasing self-imposed expectations. Banish the word ‘should’ from your vernacular as this misleads you into thinking you need to be some-where other than your sacred space. If you catch yourself saying ‘should’, be honest: it’s something you don’t really want to do at all, hey?! Free yourself from this burden and replace ‘should’ with ‘could’. Hoooo, feels lighter already!

Personal confusion = social chaos

.
Personal confusion contributes to social chaos. What you currently observe in the exterior world is a reflection of the collective state of mind. Everyone has a role to play in this. Examining your fears and what motivates you leads to self understanding. Being an active participant on your inner journey of exploration is your personal contribution to the evolution of consciousness within the collective mind.

On pregnancy

.
Pregnancy intensifies a lot of things for a woman – it enhances the senses of taste and smell, for example. It deepens her relationship with her support network of friends and family. And, it heightens her intuitive connection with her body and thus, her insights and drive to build a safe, empowered and happy life for her and her baby.
