“The wild nature has a vast integrity to it. It means to establish one's territory, to find one's pack, to be in one's body with certainty and pride regardless of the body's gifts and limitations, to speak and act in one's own behalf, to be aware, alert, to draw on the innate feminine powers of intuition and sensing, to come into one's cycles, to find what one belongs to, to rise with dignity, to retain as much consciousness as possible.” NatureConsciousnessIntegrityDignityIntuitionWildClarissaEstés Book:Women Who Run With the Wolves Source: Women Who Run With the Wolves
“Another way to strengthen connection to intuition is to refuse to allow anyone to repress your vivid energies... that means your opinions, your thoughts, your ideas, your values, your morals, your ideals. There is very little right/wrong or good/bad in this world. There is, however, use and not useful.” IdeasValuesEnergyThoughtsIdealsIntuitionMoralsOpinionsGood BadRight WrongUseful Not Useful Author:Clarissa Pinkola Estés
“Practice listening to your intuition, your inner voice; ask questions; be curious; see what you see; hear what you hear; and then act upon what you know to be true. These intuitive powers were given to your soul at birth.” CuriosityIntuitionInner VoiceWild WomenWomen Who Run With Wolves Book:Women Who Run With the Wolves Source: Women Who Run With the Wolves
“Women's curiosity was given a negative connotation, whereas men were called investigative. Women were called nosy, whereas men were called inquiring. In reality, the trivialization of women's curiosity so that it seems like nothing more than irksome snooping denies women's insight, hunches, and intuitions. It denies all her senses. It attempts to attack her fundamental power.” PowerCuriosityInsightIntuitionWild WomanWomen Who Run With WolvesTrivialization Of Women Book:Women Who Run With the Wolves Source: Women Who Run With the Wolves
“What does this wildish intuition do for women? Like the wolf, intuition has claws that pry things open and pin things down, it has eyes that can through the shields of persona, it has ears that hear beyond the range of mundane human hearing. With these formidable psychic tools a woman takes on a shrewd and even precognitive animal consciousness, one that deepens her femininity and sharpens her ability to move confidently in the outer world.” WomenIntuitionFemininityPersonaWolfConfidentWild WomanWomen Who Run With WolvesAnimal ConsciousnessPsychic Tools Book:Women Who Run With the Wolves Source: Women Who Run With the Wolves
