THIS dance circle my beloved UNDAKOVA led during our last hip hop yoga retreat in Thailand. At the time, I was spewing venom. As beautiful as my pregnancy was, RAGE was the predominant negative emotion for me as I passed through life's threshold into Motherhood. I felt it in burning pains in the night and anxieties turned aggressions against myself. I was channeling crone in our hip hop yoga ciphers, visualizing bones and blood as I walked the labyrinth and breathing fire. Then there I was in the center of the circle, everyone was feeding me with their energy. I deep dived into the belly of the abyss, navel to the galactic center (Womb of the World). I call this move the "COSMIC FLOP" It reminds me to trust I am supported, connected, I belong. I am enough I have enough.
This is some of the daily work of hip hop yoga, remembering I AM. We call our son Kali because I was Warrior Kali (Dark aspect of Shakti) when I met my partner, on the battlefield of Feminism, spiraling out of control when enter my twin flame, sleeping, corpse like below my Lotus feet. Shiva is shava "corpse" without the feminine element of Shakti. Thank you David for dancing with me in the flow of death, time and change. I had shaved my head and turned against the feminine aspects of myself, which I perceived as weak, unconsciously cosigning a culture that exploits and assigns little value to the Motherly qualities of love, nurturance, empathy. Underlining my ambition was an undermining of my greatest assets as a wombyn. I could try to beat the world into submission through my calculated and focused work, but in the end the only thing I beat to death was myself.
It is through the feminine aspect that we LOVE and to love is to Live. The Mother is "Mater" she is Matter. The ground of all reality. Sometimes when faced with a triggering situation I can feel my walls going up, my mouth frozen over like stone, the RAGE is still slowly dissolving into the sea of energy as I step into allowing myself to be soft, vulnerable, psychic, open, receptive and fluid like SHAKTI as I feel the earth beneath my feet supporting me. In this way I am a Strong Woman/ Mother that can support my family and community, continually letting go of the past and regenerating Myself.
