Today, we celebrate the sacred strength, resilience, and wisdom of women across the globe. International Women’s Day isn’t just about honoring women—it’s a call to rise, to reclaim our power, and to heal from centuries of imbalance.
This day also reminds us of the deep connection we have to the Earth, to the divine, and to one another. We are the creators, the nurturers, and the warriors who have long stood at the crossroads of wisdom and endurance. It’s time to remember our inherent power and return to a world that honors the sacred feminine.
But as we rise, we witness the pushback—what some may call a patriarchal extinction burst. As the old, harmful systems crumble, those who benefited from the patriarchal structures will fight with all their might to preserve their hold on power. This burst of resistance may be loud and violent, but it is merely the death throes of a system that no longer serves us.
The patriarchy knows its time is up, and in its desperation, it lashes out. But this burst of resistance will only fuel our collective transformation. We are the phoenix rising from the ashes, our spirit unbreakable, our power unstoppable.
As we honor the women who came before us, let us also remember that this fight is not just for today—it’s for our daughters, our sisters, our future as humankind.
We are not fighting to be heard; we are fighting to create a world where our voices, our hearts, and our souls are honored in their purest form. Don’t let this be taken from you or erased from the history books.
“Every step forward toward a more just society draws extinction bursts from people who have learned to expect more than their share of privilege.” - Martha Beck
