    Walking with Darkness

    🌹 What does it mean to walk in the darkness of the Mother? Why is the Mother depicted in so many beautiful and terrifying forms? And what does the darkness of the Mother have to do with liberation? The co-hosts and co-producers of Red Mother Rising, Ruby Magdalene and Meenakshi, who are both devotees of the Red Mother and also follow the yoginī/priestess path, discuss these questions in the second episode of Red Mother Rising. They discuss the Mother as She appears in various world traditions, including as Kālī, Lalitā, Inanna, Guanyin, Mary Magdalene, Pārvatī, and Cāmuṇḍā, and ultimately as Kuṇḍalinī Śakti, the liberating power that delves into the crevices of māyā to liberate the jīva (individual soul) from saṃskāras (egoic conditioning) and bring the mind back to its true nature as pure consciousness. Ruby Magdalene and Meenakshi discuss: ✧ The beautiful and terrifying faces of the Divine Mother ✧ Why the darkness of the Goddess is about liberation, not aesthetics or edginess ✧ Kṣaya, saṃskāras, and Śakti, and the way buried karma is brought to the surface ✧ Nirvikalpa samādhi, remembrance of the Self, and return to the womb of the Mother ✧ Kālī as Brahman and the fierce liberating forms of Durgā, Cāmuṇḍā, and Chinnamastā ✧ Lalitā Tripurasundarī, Kāmeśvara, and Kāmeśvarī, and the Goddess as the source of manifestation ✧ Tapasyā, renunciation, and why spiritual purification can feel painful ✧ Inanna’s descent into the underworld, Ereshkigal, and the stripping away of identity ✧ Mary Magdalene, the powers of wrath, Sophia, and parallels with nondual realization ✧ Bhoga and mokṣa in Śrīvidyā, and why enjoyment does not eliminate the need for renunciation ✧ The pañcamakāras, Vāmācāra, and the difference between transgression, hedonism, and liberation ✧ Yoni, liṅga, sacred sexuality, and the deeper metaphysics behind Tantric symbolism ✧ Yoginīs and ḍākinīs as fierce initiatory and protective beings rather than “evil” spirits ✧ Discernment, entities, cremation-ground practice, and the importance of spiritual protection ✧ Guanyin’s descent, sacrifice, compassion, and the fierceness hidden within gentleness ✧ Satī, Pārvatī, sacred union, and the renunciation that precedes union with the Divine ✧ Yeshua, the Sermon on the Mount, and the relationship between descent, liberation, and nondual awareness ABOUT RED MOTHER RISING’S HOSTS AND PRODUCERS Ruby Magdalene is a professional Magdalene priestess, oracle, trauma-informed psychic medium, sound healer, and archetypal-evolutionary astrologer.

    What does it mean to worship the Divine Mother in Her red form?

    🌹 What does it mean to worship the Divine Mother? Why does the Divine Mother appear in a red form, and what does Her “redness” signify? What does Śrīvidyā Tantra have to say about the Red Mother, and how has the Red Mother shown up across cultures, not just Tantra? The co-hosts and co-producers of Red Mother Rising, Meenakshi and Ruby Magdalene, who are both devotees of the Red Mother and also follow the yoginī / priestess paths, discuss these questions in the introductory episode of Red Mother Rising. They discuss the Mother as She appears through Śrīvidyā Tantra and Gnostic Christianity, Her form as Kuṇḍalinī Śakti, and how She is the liberating power in every being. Meenakshi and Ruby Magdalene discuss: ✧ Śrī Lalitā Tripurāsundarī and Sophia ✧ The Kali Yuga, or the dark ages prophesied in Hindu scripture ✧ The power of Kuṇḍalinī Śakti ✧ Dakṣiṇācāra, Kaulācāra, and Vāmācāra paths ✧ The meaning of the “red path” ✧ Hedonism vs. liberation, and why hedonism is NOT Tantra ✧ Embodiment of wisdom on the path to liberation ✧ The dark night of the soul that comes with worship of the Divine Mother ✧ The importance of direct experience, which is facilitated by Śakti ✧ The discomfort in claiming the title of yoginī / priestess ✧ How the spiritual path differs for women ABOUT RED MOTHER RISING’S HOSTS AND PRODUCERS Meenakshi has been walking this path for over a decade.
