A-ha! I’ve found a Goddess that is as inspiring to me as Saraswati and Wonder Woman: Estsanatlehi. She is the “Changing Woman.”

According to the Navajo legend, Estanatlehi created the first man and woman from pieces of her own skin. That’s as close to the creative source that my Goddess search has brought me thus far. She meets her husband, the Sun god Tsohanoai, every night as he sets. This is good – she has her own day job and hangs with her man at night. Smart. I’m liking this. It is also believed she becomes old each winter and young each spring, just as the Earth does with the changing seasons. Even better. And she also answers to Turquoise Woman. Turquoise is my favourite stone (the minty blue kind with brown desert flecks…ahhh.) It must be a sign. I’m getting closer to God-dess.

I just wish I knew how to pronounce her name.

. . . . . . . .

What is The Goddess Experiment? I’m wondering what will shift or bloom or go bust in my psyche if I very intentionally envision God in female form. For the next 21 days, including weekends, I’m going to actively re-frame He into She. His Highness into Her Highness. I’m collecting images that speak to me of God-dess.

Please join in. I may post what you send. Just to…see.
