Description

I AM ENOUGH & SO ARE YOU! Discussing Sex, Power, Religion and Politics under the Divine Feminine Umbrella with Rev. Prs. Karen Tate, Hon. D.Min, thought leader, author, speaker and social justice activist.  Voices of the Sacred Feminine is the longest running Divine Feminine podcast - on the air since 2009, discussing spiritual psychology, esoteric wisdom, cosmic inquiry and spiritual awareness. Check out the archives! Every Wednesday hear Dr. Rev. Karen Tate, discussing the bees buzzing round in her bonnet: local, national, global and personal from a Divine Feminine or Right Brain point of view. Some call it the Feminine Consciousness or the shift away from patriarchal values to manifest a new and much needed normal. Raise your consciousness and save the world! It hasn't always been this way. And things don't have to stay the same. Fear Not - taste the forbidden fruit! Dare to speak it out loud! Rethink, reclaim and embrace wisdom and knowledge denied us far too long. Unlock your tool kit and empower yourself as you learn long hidden truths and ideas from your home altar to the voting booth, including what denying the feminine face of god (deity, archetype or ideal) has cost humanity! Karen Tate's 7 published books include her newest, Normalizing Abuse; A Commentary On The Culture of Pervasive Abuse, Sacred Places of Goddess; 108 Destinations, Walking An Ancient Path; Rebirthing Goddess on Planet Earth, Goddess Calling; Inspirational Messages & Meditations of Sacred Feminine Liberation Thealogy and the anthology based on this show, Voices of the Sacred Feminine; Conversations to ReShape Our World. That book, along with the anthologies Goddess 2.0. and Awaken the Feminine comprise the famous "manifesting a new normal" trilogy.

Spirituality Isn't For the Faint of Heart - Three Truths About Transformation
2026/10/21
Today I want to talk about something that doesn't always get enough attention in spiritual circles - COURAGE. Not the kind that sends us climbing mountains or sky diving. I'm talking about the courage to question what we've been taught, to challenge the familiar and to acknowledge that sometimes the beliefs and institutions we've trusted may actually be contributing to the problems we're trying to solve. And when you're finished listening, please check out my website www.karentate.net and do me a favor and purchase my new book - Divine Feminine: Deity, Archetype and Ideal from my website here - https://www.karentate.net/post/pagan-portals-the-divine-feminine-deity-archetype-and-ideal  Or reach out and let me know if you like my episodes at [email protected]
The Missing Piece: What We Lost When We Erased the Divine Feminine
2026/10/14

Mistress of the Animals Helping Us Maneuver This Untamed World
2026/09/30
Let's take a look at the Mistress of the Animals or Lady of the Beasts to understand her in symbol and concept and see how, like the ancients, we might use her as a tool or buffer to keep the dangerous and untamed world out there at bey so we might survive and thrive. Lets look at her as a symbol or role model for female authority, control and sovereignity. Then get paper and pen ready to think about these prompts: 1) If you grew up with these myths, how might it change social constructs like patriarchy in society? Would it exist? 2) What decisions might you make differently? 3) How might you see yourself differently? 4) Think about that feral wild woman within we force to lay dormant in civilized society - what is she like, what is she forced to sacrifice? What would we do if there were not rules or no one was watching? How might you restructure your life? 5) Where in your life are you sacrificing your freedom? 6) What parts of your true nature or voice have you locked away to keep others comfortable or to fit in?

Women are Hated, Neglected, Exploited & Oppressed
2026/09/23
This podcast is inspired by the Lindsay Clancy trial; all the reactions on both sides of the aisle. And because women are carrying 73% of the cognitive labor while men have the emotional maturity of gerbils yet wonder why we'd rather not marry or date them. The US is falling behind other Western Countries when it comes to all the metrics that matter - there is no American Exceptionalism. We've been sold a bill of goods to pacify us. The rest of the Western World is evolving and we're regressing thank you Christian Nationalism. Tune in and see if you agree then please go to my website www.karentate.net and buy my new book, Divine Feminine: Deity, Archetype and Ideal.

Who Were the Amazons? Were they Lesbian?
2026/07/22
Taking a look at what contemporary and ancient writers said about the Amazons and their lifestyles. Did they really live in female only societies? Were they hetero, bi-sexual or lesbian? Taking a look at Xena, Gabrielle and Wonder Woman and asking if men have a problem understanding fluid female emotions. Can we normalize gender fluidity? Does society, religion and culture groom us to be hetero when that might not be our authentic bent? By bringing history, mythology and fluidity of the ancient world to light, we see how much more rigid contemporary society is today as the ancient world didn't even have words for lesbian, gay or homosexuality.  Check out my website www.karentate.net and please pick up a copy of my book Divine Feminine: Deity, Archetype and Ideal.  https://www.karentate.net/post/pagan-portals-the-divine-feminine-deity-archetype-and-ideal This episode inspired by Dr. Carla Ionescu from The Goddess Project youtube channel.  Thank you Dr. Carla for your magnificent scholarship!  https://www.youtube.com/@goddessproject
Puritan Women Preferred Native Americans to Puritan Husbands
2026/07/15
Today I summarize a Substack article I mention in the episode about how 40-60% of Puritan women kidnapped by Native American tribes actually preferred living with the progressive thinking tribes to their Puritan husbands and did not want to return to their Puritan culture - including lesbian women who were not abominations in Native American culture. Learn more about the false captivity narratives started by Puritan ministers that sanitized what we learned about the expansion of the US settlers westward and misinformed us about what was really playing out in people's lives. John Wayne movies were a total lie in many cases.  Please check out my website at www.karentate.net where you'll find lots of interesting and free stuff.  And please order my new book, Divine Feminine: Deity, Archetype and Ideal from my website here - https://www.karentate.net/post/pagan-portals-the-divine-feminine-deity-archetype-and-ideal
Lesbian Goddesses within Goddess Spirituality
2026/07/08
People in the ancient world were a lot more accepting of the spectrum or fluidity of gender from androgynous divinities to lesbian or gay gods and goddesses. In fact, in Greece, there wasn't even a word for lesbian, gay or homosexual. Today I'll chat about this and share the names and descriptions of several of the ancient lesbian goddesses, some of which are contemporary icons for lesbian women today.   And I'd also like to invite you to visit my website, www.karentate.net where you'll find lots of free stuff, links to my newsletter Toolbox for Transformation and "all things Goddess" - while you're there take advantage of the ease in which you can sign up for my newsletter from the pop up window. Please do consider pre-ordering my new book, Divine Feminine: Deity, Archetype and Ideal.  It would mean the world to me to have your support.  The books are only $12.95 and would make great holiday gifts.  Here's the link - https://www.karentate.net/post/pagan-portals-the-divine-feminine-deity-archetype-and-ideal
Asherah: A Love Odyssey - A Film About the Divine Feminine

The Sacred Pubic Triangle - Ancient Symbol of the Divine Feminine
2026/06/24
Its important to know symbols and their origins. Symbols have power in the collective consciousness. They're not accidents. Ancient people, unable to read and write, communicated complex ideas using symbols of which the sacred pubic triangle is one. The triangles were on statues, in caves and temples to signify the g******s and life giving female body. Red ochre represented the sacred blood.

Sheela Na Gigs - The Magical Enigma
2026/06/17
The ancient female carvings called Sheela Na Gigs or Sheelas are enigmatic indeed. Theories are they're protection or fertility symbols, that their magic helps women in childbirth or if you're within a building on which a Sheela is carved, you are considered within the protective embrace of the Goddess. This and other aspects of the Sheelas are discussed in this short series about women reclaiming their agency via the power of female genitalia and sacred life giving. Check out my Sacred Places of Goddess book herehttps://www.karentate.net/post/sacred-places-of-goddess  for more information about Sheelas and other sacred places of Goddess around the world or to drive your own domestic or international sacred tour.

2026/06/10

Reclaiming Anger as Protection, Justice, & Accountability
2026/06/03
"Stop swallowing glass and calling your bleeding mouth grace" was the profoud statement in our Storytelling with Goddess circle this month. We discuss how patriarchy has robbed women of this emotion, telling her that her anger was hysteria, bitterness, irrationality. Many became terrified to be called a feminist, bitch, c*nt or other demonized word which reflected our boundaries, our consent was probably being violated. We shouldered the shame instead of the abuser. For more, give this episode a listen or go to my website for the article at www.karentate.net. Please also order my newest book in pre-order now from Amazon or Simon and Schuster titled Divine Feminine: Deity, Archetype and Ideal.
