Bitchfest was an amazing and very bonding experience for those of us who attended the day in May 2011. It became a very intimate time of sharing and sisterhood. It made me excited for another Bitchfest opportunity but of course you have to wait and give the creative elements a chance to develop and flow.

Since last May Bitchfest has bubbled and percolated around in my mind and soul and has manifested itself in to something for our Mother: Earth. This year at Bitchfest we will be tapping into the energy source of our Mother through this sacred planet we call home. It will be an opportunity for soul enhancing and reconnecting to each other as sisters and as sisters to our mother.

This day promises to stir your soul and your mind. It will provide you with an opportunity to enrich yourself and to enrich others. Bitchfest is all about finding that balanced ALPHA female in you. In some cases it is about finding your alpha for the first time while for others it is about getting reacquaint. It does not matter which it only matters that you are given the choice and opportunity to do it.

Now, when I talk about the Alpha Bitch I am not talking about the loudest mouth, the one who talks the most, or the bully in the office or school yard. While that is sadly a demonstration of the Alpha Bitch is a very unhealthy demonstration. It comes, in my opinion, from a very unbalanced energy which is completely running on fear. The kind of Alpha Bitch I am referring to is the Alpha wolf. She is that balanced, strong, deep and rich wolf. She is part of the pack, leader of the pack, protector of the pack and mother to the pack. She knows her own inner source and strives to remain true to it because it is this inner source , her true essence, which connects her to the Universal Source. The orignial Univeral Source of the Mother is where we all begin and it is where we will all return.

The Alpha doesn’t have to force herself onto anyone. She doesn’t have to take from another in order to feel strong. She looks into herself for her strength, to her source and the Universal Source.  She is in touch with her intuition. Intuition is ancient. It is pure. It is genuine. The well balanced Alpha recognises it as an essential resource.

That is the Alpha Bitch I am talking about, so if you have been experiencing some discomfort about the word Bitchfest perhaps this will help it to settle more comfortably into your bones. We will continue to dialogue about Bitchfest and the balanced healthy Alpha Bitch in all of us over the coming days and weeks. I would love to hear your thoughts and feelings about your inner Alpha so please feel free to share.

Take care and talk to you soon,

Elizabeth

Meetings will begin on Saturdays at 11:00 a.m. and conclude at 1:00 p.m. We encourage everyone to read the story prior to the date. Some of the stories can be challenging to find and in these cases we will supply a copy of the story. We encourage readers to highlight areas of the stories which speak to them. There will be opportunity to discuss these passages over the course of our meeting. We will review the story and discuss key components of the story including the heroine, hero, setting, atmosphere and mood. We will also discuss the flow of the tale. The theme of each story will be of particular significance to our conversations. The timelessness of these particular fairytales and enchanted legends to women of today will be of pivotal importance.
