What is Dark Feminine Energy?

The Dark Feminine Energy is a concept that encompasses the light and dark aspects of the feminine psyche associated with depth, mystery, and fierce transformation of the shadow side of the feminine.

It is acknowledging yourself as a whole. Not just as the ‘light’ version of yourself (whatever that looks like). Rather, the side of your “dark” that many do not get to see. You tend to keep this part locked away to yourself, even sometimes from yourself.

It is most likely the part of you that has been suppressed the longest and misunderstood most of your life.

Why don’t we change that?!

You need to start with the understanding that “dark feminine” is not inherently negative; rather, it represents the rich tapestry of qualities that go beyond traditional, culturally prescribed notions of femininity.

Understandably, the Westernized, patriarchal, and capitalistic structures (New Age Movement) are playing a major role in how we view this particular energy in movies and TV shows.

Remember that there are contrasts to things in life.

Just as the day needs night, so does the night need the day. The moon also shines bright at night.

Understanding the dark side is a necessary aspect of your life and one to embrace because your life depends on it.

Why should I heal? I’m fine the way I am?

No one is saying you are not fine. It’s more like another adventure in your life you can awaken to if you have not started to do the work yet.

There will be many things you will be healing from. Learning and becoming highly attuned in your life will be determined by the decisions you make. So then why not make your choices from a more conscious you?

Choices in your life start to become more free-flowing, acceptance of situations that are outside of your control, manifesting desires and wants, mending wounded broken relationships with yourself and others, finding abundance and success in the person you truly were meant to be, and more!

This is exactly what healing does.

How to heal your dark feminine energy

Understanding how to heal your dark feminine energy encompasses asking yourself questions about your life and how you view it. Taking action towards figuring out what aspects of your life need healing – that’s the first step.

Write it down!

How healing looks like …

You’re healing may look like you either stepped into a wrestling match or a high-end fashion show.

Whatever that looks like everyone’s healing will look different, but the actions steps you do can be the same.

Here is some homework, or what I’d like to call soulwork to start your action steps.

Grab a journal and pen and work on the exercises below. You will hopefully thank yourself later. (This is not going to work if you don’t take action, so this is the time).

Excersise #1

Answer these 3 questions without judgment or fear.

Question 1: If I could change anything in my life what would that be (be specific).

Question 2: What is one habit you would like to incorporate in your life?

Question 3: What emotions or qualities do I associate with the dark feminine, and how do they manifest in my life?

Excersise #2

Take your question 1 answer and time yourself with one minute on the clock. Act as if it is already yours.

I am sure it felt strange if you were not use to imaging things you want as though it is already there. When you come from a place of lack you tend to repel the very same thing you actually want. Bizarre right!

Take your question 2 set an alarm on your phone for tomorrow and when you hear it go off do something about the habit you mentioned.

Hold yourself accountable like your life depends on it, because it does. Now, if you are currently occupied, set another alarm to remind you to continue your new habit. Keep this as a reminder until it becomes a habit.

Take your question 3 answer and make a conscious effort to notice the patterns about the qualities and emotions you’d like to change

The History Behind the Dark Feminine

The history of dark feminine energy is complex and multifaceted,

reflecting the diverse ways different cultures and traditions have approached the understanding of feminine power and its dual nature.

The concept of dark feminine energy has roots in various cultural, spiritual, and psychological traditions.

It’s important to note that interpretations and associations with the dark feminine vary across cultures and belief systems.

It intrigues me how much we have suppressed these energies, especially in Western modern societies. However, it comes as no surprise that modern society would do this.

In contemporary times, there’s a growing recognition of the importance of embracing the dark feminine as an integral part of the wholeness and authenticity of the feminine experience.

In many ancient cultures, goddesses were revered as embodiments of both light and darkness. For example, in Greek mythology, Hecate was a goddess associated with the moon, magic, and the underworld, embodying aspects of the dark feminine.

In Hinduism, goddesses like Kali represent the fierce and destructive aspects of the divine feminine. Kali is often depicted with dark skin, symbolizing the transformative and regenerative nature of time.

The Egyptian goddess Sekhmet, often depicted with a lioness head, represents the fierce and protective aspects of femininity. She is associated with both healing and destruction.

In modern Wiccan and neo-pagan traditions, the triple goddess archetype includes the Maiden, Mother, and Crone. The Crone represents the wise and sometimes dark aspects of the feminine, symbolizing the later stages of life and the wisdom gained through experience.

In alchemical traditions, the concept of the nigredo (blackening) phase represents the initial stage of transformation and purification. This phase is often associated with the dark and chaotic aspects of the transformative process.

Within certain tantric traditions, the feminine Shakti energy is acknowledged as both nurturing and powerful. Kali, a tantric goddess, embodies the dynamic and often intense energies of the feminine.

Many have reinterpreted the concept of the dark feminine, reclaiming it from historical associations with negativity and instead viewing it as a source of empowerment, resilience, and authenticity.
