A woman is most protected when she’s in her softness. This is why the world was intentionally made in a way that women couldn’t be soft. The softness of a Black women is the rarest and a lot of times the most persecuted. This is because a soft Black woman turns into a healing jewel for thousands and a healed world is one that can’t be controlled by with fear.
A couple of weeks ago as I was walking home from dance class a group of kids biked by and screamed out that I was a “Nigger.” Earlier this week I was singled out by the cashier and treated very badly while the customer before me was treated with class. See racism takes different forms and the purpose behind it is to make a group of people feel like they aren’t humans.
There’s even a deeper reason – if you look at the movie Sinners there is vampirism. This is an abduction or vampirism of our energy. I like to think of the Barbie movie and in the beginning of the movie Ruth Handler, Barbie’s creator says “ Every woman is Barbie and Barbie is every woman.” Within Barbie land there are different Barbie’s. One Barbie represents Barbie’s intellect. Another Barbie represents Barbie’s personality, etc. etc. Well this is alive today except what or maybe I should say who Barbie is, is the Goddess. Which in Barbie terms that there are cultures of women who not only represent but actually are Barbie’s energy field and other that represent Barbie’s sensuality, and another who represents Barbie’s wisdom. Which is why the wise women were called witches and hung. The most painful part of this is that we are totally unconscious of the parts of Barbie that we are.
A women’s softness protects her vibration and a protected vibration is one you can’t feast on, which is why evil beings don’t want it protected.
Black women specifically represent a special part of Barbie which is why they have been attacked the most, but the attacks don’t just stop with us it extends to all of us because what happens to one woman or goddess happens to all of us, literally, figuratively, & spiritually.
I’ve only been able to use divine feminine energy to protect myself from racism once and it was an event so traumatic that every year my body relives it. Which brings me to the next point – how do you heal from something like this? Especially when it’s something that happens continually?
The answer is that the same thing that you are being beat for you use to heal yourself. As a woman and as a Black woman your job is to be soft, extra soft from within for yourself. Be soft so that you can let the chains of what’s been done to you seemlessly fall off your body.
Light yourself candles as you eat dinner set for one. Devote Friday nights to bubble baths. Watch Girlfriends or even better yet call your girlfriends and laugh.
Your body is not a curse. She is a vibration. One waiting to be loved and treated to kindness, everlasting love, and grace.
I remember a woman told me once, “ Jasmyne you talk about feminine energy but you really are feminine. You walk as a who has been through a journey and know who she is and they don’t want that.
That’s why they go out of their way to put you down more than me. They don’t want us soft end you’re probably the softest Black woman I’ve ever seen.”
To the women listening your softness is not demonic it’s a jewel waiting to be proudly & lovely worn and be held on by you.
