radical truth

Anne Brontë, the last of the Brontë children, was born in Thornton, Yorkshire, England on 17 January 1820. Meek and more religious-minded than Charlotte or Emily, little is known about her life compared to the lives of her more popular sisters.

The Brontë sisters like many women writers at the time published their poems and novels under male pen names so that their work might be taken seriously in the male-dominated literary world of the 19th century: they were Currer, Ellis, and Acton Bell. ~ The Attagirls on Twitter

Anne Brontë: the radical sister overlooked by history

Anne's first novel was Agnes Grey (1847), based on her experience as a governess. It didn't get much attention, but her second novel, The Tenant of Wildfell Hall (1848), was an immediate success. She met with fierce criticism for her work despite its huge popularity.

a return to feminine power

As we strive to connect with the universe to unlock its secrets and our innate potential - the divine feminine has been a potent concept in human history.

The manifestation of feminine energy in the universe is the energy inside everyone associated with creativity, fertility, and intuitive thinking. It is a sacred power source that is both integral to the nature of the universe and inherent in ourselves.

All through history the divine feminine is revered and deified as the foundation of all creation. In many cultures - then and now - the Mother Goddess is a matriarchal archetype represented frequently in art and found in various mythologies around the world.
