Easter's Hidden Tale: When the God Dies and the Goddess Resurrects 🌹
Easter is about more than death and resurrection...
It's about love, devotion... and anointing 🌿
It reminds us of something profound... something we've almost forgotten:
That the masculine and the feminine are not opposed.
They are meant to work together in a cycle of life.
🔥 The masculine sacrifices itself
When we look at ancient stories, a theme emerges:
The masculine sacrifices itself.
Not because he is weak...
but because he is willing to lead the way.
- In war
- In work
- In battle
- In responsibility
The masculine gives of his strength...
often to the point where he loses himself.
In the story of Jesus, we see it clearly:
He sacrifices his life for something greater.
In the myth of Adonis, he dies in the hunt –
in the masculine instinct, in movement, in power.
And in Egypt, Osiris is literally killed and dismembered.
👉 The masculine goes out into the world... and pays a price.
🌹 The feminine heals and revives
And here the feminine enters.
As that which dares to feel it all.
Mary Magdalene anoints Jesus with costly oil – a whole jar worth a year's wages.
She touches him.
She honors him.
She is with him at the moment he is to be crucified.
In the story of Aphrodite and Adonis:
When Adonis dies in her arms, she grieves so deeply that her tears mix with his blood...
and from it grow flowers – anemones. 🌺
👉 Life arises from love and sorrow.
Isis & Osiris
And in Egypt:
Isis refuses to let Osiris remain dead.
She gathers his body.
Holds him.
And through her love and magic, she revives him.
🌿 What does this remind us of?
That the masculine gives...
but it is the feminine that rebuilds.
That a man can go out into the world and fight...
but it is through the feminine's love, presence, and connection that he renews his energy.
👉 The god sacrifices himself...
👉 The goddess heals...
👉 Love revives...
and together they create new life.
Like spring, which always returns 🌿
🐣 Easter within you
Easter is not just something that happened once...
It is a cycle that lives within you.
Something within you that gives
Something within you that grieves
Something within you that resurrects
✨ Notice what is stirring within you right now
Perhaps this is where your journey begins...
