Listen to the Wild Woman
The two
words wild and woman are inseparable. There has always been a wild soul growing within
us since our birth. It is the pulse which makes a woman dive deep into the
wilderness and aim to achieve what she was convinced she can’t. The wild archetype of a woman does not let herself get lost, rather it embodies her
power which she can’t live without. The wild woman is a visionary and a
listener. She bleeds tears and walks on the ocean fighting the storm. She lives in the world but she is not a part
of it, her evidence of existence is unknown to maximum but her presence is luculent just like her inner force. She lives within us. Each one of us stands as the splendid and
convincing proof of the wild woman present in us. It constantly keeps pushing
us to the darkness because it is not afraid to investigate what lies there. It makes
our mind question everything and seeks meaning to everything happening around
us. It encourages us to break away the old patterns and assures us to stand by
us no matter how tough the world becomes. She is not born to be tamed and her
fire is not meant to be calmed. But sadly her wild instincts have been reasoned
to be silenced as she has to portray herself as a nice girl. Her desires have
been tied by the boundaries of society. Every woman is born with a natural wild
instinct in her soul but her wilderness has not been celebrated properly as a
result she falls short in ability to manifest her ideas and curiosity in the
outer world. These young women who are perceived as naive are aware of the
demons present outside but instead of being taught how to fight with them they
were taught how to hide from them. While they grow in a society like this, their inner life becomes
frightened and wedged. Perhaps the wild woman present in them always tells them
to listen to their inner voice, ask questions, be curious but they choose to
remain silence. They put a mask of “nice and sweet” only to make others smile. But
by doing this they invite more threats for their soul, they kill their deep
insight and silence their original voice. These naive women hurt their soulful
living by not following what wild woman has been teaching. The only way to
recover our soul from being tamed is returning to wild woman - practice listening to our own instincts and always
stand with the truth. With some practice the injured wilderness of our soul can
be brought back to its pristine state once again. No one is born to be the
tamed by the internal and external circumstances. No matter how religion,
society and culture define rules for women to behave and think, no matter how
much obstacles rise in a woman’s path of soulful living.. nothing can change
the fact that a woman is what she is!
She is a
wild woman!!
