Embracing the Divine Feminine: A New Era of Inner Balance and Creative Power
On Mother’s Day 2023, Michele Rae invited us into a powerful conversation about the Divine Feminine—not just as a concept, but as a living, breathing energy within each of us. In this inspiring talk, she explored how the feminine archetype—nurturing, intuitive, creative, and wise—is essential to the evolutionary shift humanity is currently undergoing.
Michele doesn’t see this as a small transformation. She describes our time as a liminal space—a massive shift not only in personal consciousness but also in our collective species. This “new era” she speaks of calls for a full integration of both feminine and masculine energies, transcending toxic expressions of either.
The Feminine Within All of Us
While the Divine Feminine is often associated with motherhood and nurturing, Michele encourages us to see its presence in everyone—regardless of gender. It’s the force behind creativity, receptivity, deep listening, intuition, and the cycles of growth, death, and rebirth.
From archetypes like Kuan Yin, Mary Magdalene, Kali, and Isis to everyday expressions like cooking, gardening, organizing, parenting, or creating a business—Michele reminds us that the Divine Feminine expresses itself through everything we birth into the world.
Balancing the Masculine and Feminine
Michele shared that our world has long rewarded masculine-dominant traits—achievement, analysis, action—while suppressing the equally vital feminine qualities. The healing path forward isn’t about abandoning one for the other, but bringing them both into full presence. In her words, we’re being called to operate from “100% feminine and 100% masculine,” guided by what each moment truly requires.
Creativity as a Path to Flourishing
Michele referenced research showing that everyday creativity not only boosts our energy and excitement—it also increases our sense of flourishing. When we create—whether it’s art, gardens, relationships, or new ways of living—we become more engaged, connected, and aligned with our purpose.
Living as an Everyday Mystic
In a beautiful guided meditation, Michele invited participants to tap into their own inner wellspring of divine creativity, to release limiting beliefs, and to open to the support of Mother Earth and all the spiritual energies available to us.
Whether it’s merging with the wisdom of a tree, connecting to a goddess archetype, or simply trusting the quiet nudge of inspiration, Michele teaches that we are all everyday mystics—co-creating a new world through our choices, our creativity, and our courage to live from the center within.
A Call to Embody the New Era
Michele closed the gathering with a vision: a future where every human and every living being flourishes. A world shaped by both sacred feminine and sacred masculine energies. And a reminder that the way forward is already within us.
