Q is for Quan Yin – Goddess of Qompassion

Quan Yin - a Natural Beauty dedicated to Women and Compassion

I sit here wearing a Quan Yin necklace, believing that this beautiful Goddess of Compassion and Mercy, and Protector of Women will bring me all my wishes and my heart’s desire.  I have found that she has been there for me in the past and I know she will be there for me now.

The world needs to hold the power of Quan Yin dearly now and offer its compassion and mercy wherever needed.  The name Quan Yin, or Kwan Yin, means “One Who Sees and Hears the Cry from the Human World.”

Quan Yin, like her Christian counterpart Virgin Mary, looks over the sick and the troubled, as well as world travelers.  She hears the prayers of those who seek to do good or to do better and she graces them with her beauty and her compassion.
Quan Yin is most often shown holding pearls (which may be pearls of wisdom) in one hand and pouring the liquid of peace and harmony from her other hand.  She brings forth the universal feminine in her outstretched hand and holds the key to fertility and motherhood, oftentimes being pictured surrounded by children.
As the goddess of all things naturally beautiful and feminine, we  dedicate a blessing to the women of the world by invoking the name of the goddess of compassion and protector of women, Quan Yin.
I thank thee O Mother Goddess,
Who shines for all,
Who flows through all.
Thank you for sharing your time with me,
My thanks for watching over me,
Guarding me and guiding me.
My thanks for all you have given me,
And all you will continue to give me.
Please continue to light my path, and my life.

Kwan Yin – Goddess of Kompassion & Mercy – Protector of Naturally Beautiful Women

Kwan Yin - Protector of Naturally Beautiful Women

Kwan Yin (Quan Yin, Guanyin) – goddess of compassion and mercy and protector of women – symbol of Universal Love for all beings.  Her cup runneth over with love and mercy and compassion.

Kwan Yin, like the Virgin Mary or Guadalupe, is the mother of all, the female Buddha, the energy of the world that hears the plea of those in need and comes to their aid, whether they are sick or poor, or just having a hard time.  In these days of rising up against corporate greed and political corruption around the world, one needs to look to the mother goddesses to restore peace, harmony and love.

Kwan Yin is usually depicted holding pearls of wisdom and illumination in one of her hands and pouring a liquid with the other from a small vase to bless all with spiritual harmony and peace.  In her hands, which are usually cupped, she holds the universal feminine, the womb and the children that are desired.  In doing so, she is a goddess of motherhood and is the one to be looked at when fertility is an issue.  She sometimes is depicted holding a sheaf of rice or wheat, which is a metaphor for sustenance and abundance.  Sometimes she is accompanied by a dragon, which is a symbol of wisdom, strength, and the power of divine
transformation. A Divine Mother like Mary and Guadalupe, there are usually some children around her or being held by her.

One Who’s Voice is Mercy”

Y is for Yemaya – Yoruba Goddess of all Women

Posted on August 10, 2011 | Leave a comment

Yemaya, Yoruba Goddess of Women

Naturally beautiful women of the world, take heed and give thanks to Yemaya, Yoruba Goddess of the Sea and Protector of Women, Fertility and Motherhood.  This gal’s got our backs!

In Western Africa, the Caribbean and Brazil, Yoruba orishas are the deities that whirl and flow and dance like the waves and surf of the ocean, and Yemaya is the Mother of the Ocean.  In Brazil on New Year’s Eve, the locals build large altars to the Goddess Yemaya with candles and flowers and foods (similar to Mexico’s Day of the Dead altars), to be washed out on the waves of the birth of the New Year.

Yemaya is known by many names in modern and Western culture – she is the Virgin of Guadalupe who watches over Mexico and the Virgin Mary of the Immaculate Conception.

Yemaya gave the world a shell with which to remember her – by holding up the shell to one’s ear, you will hear the whisper of Yemaya!

Yemaya - Naturally Beautiful Woman

Like Kwan Yin (Quan Yin), Yemaya is a goddess of mercy and compassion and protector of women.  She grants women the courage and fortitude to withstand the challenges of life and to live through the pain of childbirth.  She rules with gentleness and comfort, and watches over the family and the home – as only a woman can do!  And like her sister, the Goddess of Love Oshun, she appears to us as a really naturally beautiful woman!
