Goddess Week 17-18: Kali

I'm really eager to do the reading for Maa as She is one of my patron goddesses.  That being said you would think that I would know tons about Her but that really isn't the case.  I know Her story, some of what She represents and own a statue, tapestry, and a Kali Yantra.  I also plan to have Her tattooed on my left arm, in the center on the inside of my elbow - fun fun!

I see her (at this moment) as the dissolver of illusion.  She is powerful and not to be trifled with.  She represents the frenzied state in victory and dance, which can easily lead to excess (like The Maenads).  She is the Dark Mother, though She has no biological children, She is mother to us all.  She helps us learn the hard lessons, and Her way is not the "easy" path - however it is very rewarding.

I'm looking forward to what else I will learn about Her and what teachings She brings.
