Why did I call myself "Angry Deva"?
This "anger" that is the THEME of my work is Righteous! Words can be so misleading and "anger" is perceived as it is due to counter spiritual definition. Therefore, the mere mention of "anger" paints a picture that has been impressed on our minds as something volatile and hostile; however, if one can get on the other side of that definition, we are reminded that this energy is our fire and this fire our very core foundation. Do not allow this in any way to be diminished.
Anger is a POWERFUL agent of change! I recognize the power of Anger and Outrage as transformative Spiritual Initiations. The flaring of anger or indignation is an Initiation on our Dark Night/Knight of the Soul Journey. Still I Rise! Never to give up, never to give in! ;)

I embrace my anger, my rage, my love, my gentleness, my patience and impatience, my fears and my dreams. I go running to all the things we aren't supposed to say or do, because I know I can Survive. Fear kills more dreams than failure, & my former fear of my anger? It was killing my dreams, it was siphoning my energy, it was destructive to my psyche and my soul.
I dare you:
Release your fear of the ANGER! I love the Dark Goddess, because she taught me that death is only the beginning. She taught me that death is not final, that death and destruction means creation and rebirthing. With Death comes the renewal and refreshing. We are "borne again" through this Dark Night/Knight of the soul. Or rather, Borne in True, as we are simply remembering the things we have forgotten. We are recalling the Lost, Stolen and Robbed fragments of our being, and commanding them into Power. We are taking back the parts of the Divine Dark Feminine that have been beaten into submission by patriarchal demands and definitions, by his-story wiping out my-story and her-story, our-story.
I often think the problem for women is:

I often think the problem for women is:
- Branding us as angry is a political move that seeks to invalidate our righteous critique of anti-woman global social norms.
- Branding us as angry with a negative connotation is an act of dehumanizing womanhood, we aren't allowed to be anything other than "strong" and "angry." We aren't even allowed to be angry at the repeated abuses of the Dark Feminine.
- Embracing our anger therefore is challenging; we have no courage because we have learned to dial down our anger. Which is our Fire!
This is a strategic attempt to silence black wombn; because black wombn are Creators and our Creator energy is a powerful arbiter of change. The result is a Cowardly Lion disposition, all roar and no bite.
What the hell do we do with our anger?
This is a good question.
When we do not express ourselves, we impress those feelings. These things manifest in poor diet, poor outlook and poor disposition. We tolerate less than we deserve because we no longer value ourselves. We cannot value who we are, when we repress our anger. This isn't spiritual or righteous, in fact there is nothing righteous about repression. Let us give back this mythos of "turning the other cheek." The Art of Getting Even is practiced by everyone.
Except women.
- First women need to realize we are angry, and validate our right to be angry.
- Next, women must source the root cause of her anger. This varies person to person, as our lives are all nuanced and varied. We might all be Wombn/Female, but we are not all the same.
- Lastly, express it. We women are often dealing with un-diagnosed depression.
