Virginity and virgins were once terms of power, strength and independence, and women who turned down advances were used to be describe as goddesses who were immune to the temptations of men and sexuality.

Artemis, Devana, Yewa, Hestia, Athena and Etügen Eke for example and many more unknowns female deities who were virginal and strong. Mainly they were tied to the hunt, archery, and forest. In many religion virginity is a high calling especially in matriarchal and matrilineal religions/cultures. Makes a lot of sense, and we do come from female pathogensis. The Power of Virginity explores the benefits, privileges, strength and power of female asexuality, even Artemis in myths was very protective of her purity and many women make The Creator their first love.

Palestine is crucified because of the self-interests of nations...Peace cannot be formed on the bodies of children and slaughtered men, nor is it imported by shedding innocent blood...Hence, our call is for the immediate cessation of the war on Gaza...What is happening in Palestine is the result of the violation of human dignity...We ask the Holy Lord to send down His divine justice and mercy, and His peace which surpasses all human peace, a peace that cannot be established by blood and fire.

My current icon is that of the Theotokos as the Softener of Evil Hearts. May she bless your dash and help soften even the hardest of hearts.

“We are advocates of the abolition of war, we do not want war; but war can only be abolished through war, and in order to get rid of the gun it is necessary to take up the gun.”

“She was the still point of the turning world, man. I never got over that girl. Never. I mean… you know, I loved a lot of ladies, but not like that. That was real. I’ll never forget the first time I saw her. I didn’t know what had hit me. I didn’t know what to do, cause it was so easy with all the other girls, but she wouldn’t look at me. I was never the kind to pursue, if you know what I mean. That girl drove me crazy, man.” Trip Fontaine, The Virgin Suicides (1999)
