Do you think it exists? Why or why not?

It's the idea that there's a feminine aspect to God (as well as male). The "feminism" part is trying to uncover the truth.

I don't think a single person who answered this question actually understood it. First I would like to point out for 'Quinn' that the Sacred Feminine has nothing to do with Mary worship and Catholics do not worship Mary. Catholics honor her as the 'Mother of God'.
I do believe in the sacred feminine because I believe there is a male and female side to everything. Night and Day, Black and White, Yin and Yang, etc. After all of the revisions to the Bible and propaganda, the truth is so far gone that it's hard to know.

It is a dumb concept made up ny people who want to make money by giving seminars on the 'sacred feminine' which are designed to make women who have a self esteem problem feel better about themselves and around $100 poorer.
We are all sacred in our hearts. We just have to open ourselves to that.
God is a female. Nurturing, caring, productive. Some religions detest women because of this.
river is a male by the way.

While the 'Sacred Feminine' or 'Divine Feminine' means different
things to each of us, at its most essential it is that life force within
every sentient being, every woman and man, to create , to nourish,
to intuit and be in cooperative relationship to others. Symbolized
since before recorded time by female deities and earth goddesses
--and suppressed by the male-dominated, sky-god religions, leaving
our world unbalanced and wracked with war-- the Sacred Feminine
is again on the rise.
we learn everyday dont we? atleast i do thanks for the question

Frankly it doesn't matter whether the Sacred Feminine exists or not. I have no doubt that if she did then men later erased her from memory, but if she didn't then how would we know?
Believe what you want. What goes on in your head and heart is between you and whatever you believe in.

I do not think it exists. All the names God uses for Himself in the Bible are male. The only feminine Hebrew name for God -- Shekinah -- is not found in the Hebrew Bible (OT); it is found in extrabiblical rabbinical commentaries.

I think it smells nice but everyone I know said it smells like a French Whorehouse.
So apparently, as long as you wear it around people who've never been in a whorehouse, you'll be fine!
I saw some in the mall. I know, I know... it was one of those stores, that's all I remember.
But it was cheap.

Yes, but our patriarichal society ignores it, much to the detriment of the world as a whole

God is both completely masculine and completely feminine. It all depends on how He/She/It wishes you to see Him/Her/It.
