Omniscience

Omniscience describes women’s need to contemplate their definitions of, and relationship to, the Organizing Intelligence of the Universe, through:

  • Personalizing God/dess
  • Making peace with God-the-Father
  • Recognition of Self-as-Sacred

Personalizing God/dess

Women with Embodied Spiritual Empowerment have given themselves permission to change their ideas about God/dess.

"When my clients don’t like the God of their childhood, I give them permission to find a new one. Those that find something that works for them seem to progress faster than those who remain disconnected from their family ontology, but don’t bother to find another way."

Making peace with God-the-Father

"…I had to reject God. Because God was part of the patriarchy and the patriarchy was oppressing me and suppressing me and harming me, in very deep ways. When I was able to move beyond that… I began to be a little more open to the concept of God."

Realizing that their suffering is caused by Patriarchal structures claiming to speak for God-the-Father, and not God himself, women are then able to embrace the idea of a Divine Masculine.

Recognition of Self-as-Sacred

Embodied spirituality and the women who practice it are empowered by the recognition that “we all have God-seeds inside that we’re growing.”

“I didn't know that I could call myself God. That I could say, I am divine, I am a spiritual embodiment.”

“Thankfully, I had the Divine presence inside of me, and my spiritual being kept pushing me forward."

When women connect with their inner holiness, some also embrace the idea of a Divine Feminine.

"I see how our current picture of God is male, and white, and that is what we value in our culture. I am afraid that what we leave out of our picture of the Divine, we leave out of our culture. So, we have left out women, matter, the earth, the body, mothers, intuitive knowing, those things that are so feminine. And because the feminine is so connected to the body, and to the earth, and to the ordinary moments, it all seems to be part of one devalued package."
