My Inner Goddess: Hathor
There’s a divine feminine being inside of me. She’s my best self. She’s when my confidence is at my all time high, when I feel my worthiest, wealthy, sexy, soft feminine divine power of divine.
I call her Hathor.
Hathor was one of the forty-two state gods and goddesses of Egypt, and one of the most popular and powerful. She was goddess of many things: love, beauty, music, dancing, fertility, and pleasure. She was the protector of women, though men also worshipped her.
I believe there is a divine goddess in everyone of us. Sometimes she’s dormant and she’s waiting for you to unleash her. Sometimes she’s charging and growing into something more, and sometimes you neglect her. No matter what, she lives within you.
I’ve just come to realize that I can do anything and I want other women to know that you can do anything too.
