I feel inspired this morning to share with you about a sacred celebration that begins today — honoring the Divine Mother in a profound and beautiful way.
What Is Navaratri?
Starting today, millions around the world will celebrate Navaratri, a nine-day festival dedicated to honoring the Divine Mother in her many forms.
While this celebration has roots in Hinduism, its essence speaks to a universal truth many of us are feeling called to embrace—the rising of Divine Feminine Consciousness within us all.
Recently, I was traveling in India and was deeply moved by the rich and alive presence of the Divine Feminine there.
Unlike many Western traditions where the Feminine Divine has been hidden or diminished, in India the Goddess is vibrantly celebrated in daily life—in homes, temples, businesses, and hearts.
The Divine Mother Within Us All
Navaratri reminds us that the Divine Mother energy resides within each of us—regardless of gender.
She is the creative force that brings all life into being, the nurturing presence that sustains us, and the transformative power that guides our evolution.
A Simple Practice for Honoring the Divine Mother
If you feel called to honor this special time, here's a simple practice:
Each morning for the next nine mornings, light a candle and spend a few quiet moments connecting with your heart.
Invite the nurturing, protective, and transformative qualities of Mother Divine to awaken within you.
Allow yourself to recognize and celebrate the Divinity that has always resided within you.
A Blessing for Navaratri
As we celebrate these nine sacred days, may the Divine Mother's fierce compassion dissolve obstacles, activate abundance, and fill your life with love.
May she remind you of the Divinity that has always resided within your heart, waiting to be recognized and expressed.
We are not separate from the Divine—we are expressions of it.
The same creative force that birthed the stars flows through your veins.
The same wisdom that orchestrates the cosmos resides in your heart.
I'd love to hear if this resonates with you. How do you experience the Mother Divine energy in your own life?
