Why was this American Goddess forgotten and have we damaged ourselves in doing so when we left her behind? Did we leave part of ourselves behind?  Columbia represented the concept and idea of the birth of what was once a beautiful, new, incredible country that wanted to be the beacon, the light on the hill. Created at the inception of the country, she was beloved in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries in the United States of America.

Named after Christopher Columbus, Columbia was the first American Goddess who faded out of history in the early twentieth century. Once a Goddess who led the battlecries in the American Revolution, “Hail Columbia” was sung and spoken for centuries. The District of Columbia is named after her but why is she not revered and celebrated anymore? We need her blessings now more than ever. Let’s bring her back!

Join April and Maggie as they address a listener’s question about a Goddess with one eye open and one eye sewn shut. Explore the power of sight in the physical and metaphysical realms as the witches explore the Graea, Lamia, and Manasa, who are all connected to the power of the serpent energy. Does the sight of a goddess need gatekeeping and what power is meant for the eyes of humanity?

The Graea shared one eye and one tooth amongst the three demi-goddesses. They revealed the location of their half-sister, Medusa, one of the Gorgons. Perseus stole their one eye to obtain the whereabouts of Medusa, leading to her demise. Lamia became the goddess of everyone’s nightmares after receiving the Gift of Prophecy and the ability to remove her eyes and reinsert them at will. Manasa cured Shiva of a dangerous poison after having an eye burnt out by a jealous concubine. What do these goddesses have in common? They all have connections to the serpents and to the eyes.

 Have you contemplated the sentience of magick? You never needed anyone to interpret the divine for you. Interpretation of the the divine feminine for yourself is a part of your path to your purpose as a healer and as a witch. Your desire to address the feminine within to heal, yourself and this planet, is building a different vision of the world. You can create, like the goddess, a new world where you have the freedom to be who you are. People will come to you because they're afraid or they're uncomfortable and they sense that they can trust you to help them.  Trust your own energy and your own magic and become the best version of yourself. Remember the power of the goddess and the witch and the sentience of magick!

In this episode, April and Maggie share more of their journey as you meet them again in Season 4. Thank you for your questions about the path of a solitary witch.
