Friday the 13th and the Divine Feminine: What's the Real Deal?
Hey, hey! You know how some dates just have a vibe? Well, today we're unpacking the juju behind Friday the 13th. Forget the whole "haunted, don't walk under a ladder" stuff for a sec, and let's talk about why this day is actually kinda awesome for celebrating the divine feminine.
Friday? Think Venus!
So first off, why Friday? Well, Friday's got a pretty intimate relationship with Venus, the goddess of love and beauty. You ever notice how Friday in languages like Spanish is "Viernes"? A nod to Venus, for sure. It's a day that's historically been all about love, beauty, and, you guessed it, feminine energy.
13 Isn't Unlucky; It's Just Misunderstood
Now, the number 13. Yeah, some folks dodge it like it's cursed or something, but hold up. Did you know that there are 13 lunar cycles in a year? Thirteen has been connected to femininity and the natural world for ages. (Interesting that the meaning has been suppressed isn’t it?) It's like the cosmos printed a celestial invitation to honor our feminine side, and it reads, "See you on the 13th!"
So, What Happens When Friday Meets 13?
Combine Venus-loving Friday with the mystical number 13, and what do you get? A day that's basically like a celestial high-five to the divine feminine. A time to give a shoutout to that innate, mystical feminine energy that makes the world go 'round.
Mythology Time: Say Hi to Freyja
Speaking of celestial, have you heard of Freyja, the Norse goddess of love and fertility? Her name is basically the VIP pass to understanding why Friday the 13th is a big deal. She was no ordinary goddess; she was into magic and had some serious spiritual prowess.
Modern Society, You're Missing Out
The whole bad luck narrative? Probably just a lot of noise, spun from a mix of old myths and patriarchal vibes. When you get down to it, Friday the 13th is more about tuning in than freaking out. It's not a day to fear; it's a day to, well, just BE.
How to Make the Most of It
Wanna get into the Friday the 13th spirit? Here are some chill ways to vibe with the day:
1. Moonlight Chill Session: As evening rolls around, just sit outside under the moon. No goals, no stress. Just be.
2. Sip Some Herbs: Get yourself a cup of something herbal. Chamomile, nettle—you name it. Slow sips, deep thoughts.
3. Journal Like No One's Watching: Got a thought? A dream? Scribble it down. No rules, just free flow.
4. Smudge It Out: Feeling a bit cloudy? Clear out the vibes with some smoke cleansing.
So there you have it. Friday the 13th isn't the day to hide under the covers; it's a day to embrace the hidden powers and energies of the divine feminine.
So much better.
