An excerpt from The Wheel of the Woman:
"Sperm meets egg. XX. Marked a girl; determined by man. Made to be a woman from the moment of conception. Designed to be placed inside the belly of the one who came before. As she emerges from her predecessor, she reveals a hidden beauty, a reminder that treasures often lie buried in the depths of the darkness, at the center. And we’re sent off into this world, spending our whole lives trying to unravel the intricate layers of womanhood that have been placed upon us. Like a set of nesting dolls, intricately crafted and steeped in legend, traditions are passed down through feminine lineages.
Every one of our ancestors had their own magic.
Today we honor you, Woman.
Wild and tame. Beautiful and chaotic. Wise and curious.
May every aspect of you be loved and appreciated.
Xo, MM
