The role of the Dark Goddess is both simple and complex. She depotentiates toxicity wherever it is found and creates new spaces for life-affirming, fuller expressions of reality. She is Dark because she can speak of that which we don’t want illuminated: injustice, inequity, inequality, inappropriateness. She is Dark because the Dark is what humanity has generally subjugated, one people to the next. She is Dark because she reveals our secrets. She gives voice to the voiceless, creates room for the marginalized and oppressed, opens our eyes and moves us to greater depths of soul…if we are willing to struggle with Her and move mountains.
