Suffragette

Last night I watched the movie, Suffragette, about the brave young women who fought to acquire the vote for women in early twentieth century Britain.

Balancing The Divine Feminine And Divine Masculine

I started to wonder about the balance between masculine and feminine, and whether our society, in Australia, is headed towards that balance. We know that in many societies in the world, including our own, the masculine has dominated for many years, but is that starting to change? As often happens, I received some inspiration from a television program: Doctor Quinn – Medicine Woman (again). The story this evening was about
