Studying Goddess Mythology is rather new for me. However, I have found that many women are becoming more drawn to the feminine energies surrounding many of the world’s Sacred Goddess Centers. I certainly felt the Earth’s or Goddess’s feminine energy at the Minoan Ruins. Today lets focus on how to feel and believe in our Goddess within. In the book, Goddess Bless! Divine Affirmations, Prayers, and Blessings, author Sirona Knight guides the readers on how to create affirmations to contact the Goddess you need, when you need her.
The author recommends a simple formula for creating Goddess affirmations. You can customize your affirmations to fit your personal situations or specific issues. She suggests begin with a basic phrase consisting of one or two lines. Keeping it short and to the point, makes it easier to remember for repetition.
Following is a basic affirmation suggested for healing by author Sirona Knight:
Today and every day, I feel the healing power of
the Goddess flowing through me.
After you have a basic affirmation to work from, you can then begin to tailor it to fit other situations and needs. If you are needing wisdom, you can change the affirmation like the following:
Today and every day, I feel the divine wisdom of
the Goddess filling my body, mind, and spirit.
To give the affirmation more power, you can call upon a particular Goddess to help give you the wisdom you need. Keep repeating the lines until you begin to feel the power of that Goddess. Imagine in your mind’s eye the great Celtic Goddess Anu, whose main power was her motherly wisdom, as you repeat the following affirmations:
Today and every day, I feel the divine wisdom of
the Great Mother Goddess Anu filling my body,
mind, and spirit. She is helping me to
make the best choices possible.
You can also add your name to personalize the affirmation even more, for example:
Today and every day, I, (your name), feel the divine
wisdom of the Great Mother Goddess Anu filling
my body, mind, and spirit, and helping me to
make the best choices possible.
To make your affirmations more successful, consider setting up a sacred space for doing them. Pick a place that is out of the way and private. It doesn’t have to be anything elaborate, but where you feel comfortable. It is nice to place an image of a Goddess or something that represents her such as a favorite rock, flowers, or a special photo. Enjoy creating your own affirmations and Awakening your Goddess Within.
