INTRODUCTION Quick questions: 1. When was the last time you had the opportunity to sit peacefully with your own thoughts? 2. When was the last time you allowed the Divine to speak to your heart with its gentle whispers of comfort, inspiration, hope, & priceless guidance? 3. “Goddess Guidance - Divine Inspirations” what does this mean to you? Most women are so dedicated to the rat race of living that they have forgotten how to live. Or maybe they were never taught how to relax into the richness of the feminine companion energy of the mighty masculine image of God that has been “drilled” into our psyche over thousands of years of conditioning. This cycle of ignorance and misunderstanding has done so much damage to the psyche of women. We have suffered; emotionally, mentally, physically, and spiritually. Losing track of the spiritual connection we already possess independent of organized religions and other sources that consistently ignore the dual nature of God. We constantly underestimate our personal value and the gifts we bring into the lives of others. We are often unaware of how precious we truly are. Instead we get lost in the never-ending cycle of not being or doing enough. Lost in the cycle of serving others before we serve our own needs. Burning out and trying to fulfill the needs of others even when there is nothing left to pour from our “pitcher” into what feels like a bottomless cup being placed in front of us from others. Enough… we were created to enjoy life and be the gateway to Divine love and wisdom that uplifts others without depleting ourselves. We were created to be part of a team, not the dumping grounds for others. It always amazes me how easily an indigenous culture allows for the wisdom and guidance of women to enrich the lives of their families and tribes; while our so called sophisticated religions continue to shutdown a 11
Cyndi M. Harris Divine truth. Regardless of the misconceptions, myths, and outright lies… Women are equally important in the evolution and especially in the existence of this world and beyond. Even God, the standard version of masculine divinity, mentions in the beginning text of Genesis that as He looks over one of his masterpieces the Garden of Eden that Adam seems lonely and God says, “It is not good for man to be alone.” This is a clear cut and simple statement. So, God in all of his wisdom and loving ways pulls Eve out of Adam and creates a companion, friend, helpmate, lover, and partner who he can relate to and enjoy the beauty and bounty of God’s love. Someone he can share life, appreciate, love, and support as well. Why is this information relevant to this discussion? Because, what most people forget or may not know is: The Adam you read about in more recently edited version of the Christian bible is Adam 2.0. Meaning God had created a version of man before him. And according to what I read many years ago in a more in-depth minister/pastor’s teaching bible. The first Adam was androgynous; meaning he was masculine/feminine combined. The masculine and feminine coexisted in a yin/yang symbolic way. Even when God decided to separate Adam and Eve. They, the Divine energy of God/Goddess, understood that in order for both to be happy and survive; they needed each other to experience life at a deep level of happiness, love, and peaceful coexistence. Now, I am sharing this information to make a point. Let’s put aside the doctrines of organized religion for a moment and be open minded to a simple truth. Regardless of who is telling the story. The energy of the Divine Feminine has been involved with the creation and success of everything and when She is set aside or ignored things follow an eventual path of destruction. Life as we know it falls apart. It is impossible to enjoy life fully by ignoring the truth. The energy of Yang/Masculine needs the energy of Yin/Feminine to do more than survive. We need each other to truly thrive. 12

And no matter how often men, society, even women has tried to diminish this Divine and Sacred truth. It shows up in a very simple yet profound way. The Divine decided that every human life must be created, nurtured, and birthed through a woman. The ultimate container of human creation is inside each of us. Women were gifted with a micro universe within our beautiful and heavenly-crafted bodies. A micro universe that contains within itself the wisdom of the ages. Wisdom that we have the privilege of tapping into once we learn how to “listen” and honor the sacred truth of who we are. Yes, women are the adored and cherished vessels that the source of all creation has deemed worthy of cradling its best and most sensational secrets and guidance. Whether you choose to have children or not; you still possess this ability to create, cultivate/nurture, and birth the most amazing of the Divine’s blessings and miracles. Men are sacred in their own way, but this book was created for a woman’s inner wisdom not a man’s. Now, you may be thinking; this sounds all wonderful and magical Rev. Cyndi, but how do I let go and live this truth. I am: • • • • • •

How do I step lovingly and joyfully back into our hidden truth and bring back the balance that is missing? First, you will need to embrace the remembrance of who you truly are. You will need to have faith in and trust this “new” information which is 13
Cyndi M. Harris unlocking the doors to a Divine truth long forgotten in recent human history. We are the gatekeepers of a sacred wisdom that encourages, heals, loves, and graciously surrenders to the compassion & truth of Divine Love.

Divine Love, whose glorious example, once freed from all the clutter, confusion, doctrines, and deceit; will passionately yet peacefully light the way for you to return Home. Celebrating your return to greatness, peace, and joy that has never been fully enjoyed or understood in the chaos and mayhem of modern life and living. “Goddess Guidance: Divine Inspirations – Celebrating a Woman’s Heart & Soul” was given to me as a gift for you. I am living proof that when you allow yourself to let go and let God/Goddess guide you; unexpected answers and wisdom appears. There is no struggle or fear.
