Women As Portals:
The unique capacity to give birth requires the opening of a portal within, which allows women to be gateways between worlds. All ancient cultures from across the globe understood the significant spiritual role women play in society, as evidenced by the countless pregnant and birthing idols, statues, pictographs, shrines, and she-la-na-gigs, figures of birthing women on Medieval churches. We can also see this concept of the sacred feminine in the mythic stories passed from generation to generation, which tell of deities giving birth to our world including Isis, Ishtar, and Grandmother Spider who weaves the web of the universe, which gives birth to life.
"Is this potion expired? Drat! You can never trust a traveling salesgoblin."
"Oh wait, it's working."
All humor aside, Ewa was a pleasure to work with. Together we braved rain and mosquitoes. Her baby's birth was a marvelous one, and her baby is one of the most intelligent, beautiful, healthy babies with bright, engaging eyes, that I have have ever seen. Babysitting that angel is pure joy.
