"Today the ancient matriarchal
principle is reasserting its power. This is eros, the female spiritual or
psychological principle of love, unity and peace. The laws of the matriarchate
are the laws of nature and instinct: the inner life of feelings and emotions is
highly valued. Life is seen as cyclical, a continually rearranging balance. The
earth is sacred, giving birth and sustenance to all that is. Nature is the
teacher, revealing the mysteries of life. Nature is not a power to be harnessed
or overcome."
