In a culture where profit has become the true God, self-sacrifice can seem incomprehensible rather than noble.
Starhawk
Solidarity is based on the principle that we are willing to put ourselves at risk to protect each other.
Starhawk
A spiritual organization with a hierarchical structure can convey only the consciousness of estrangement, regardless of what teachings or deep inspirations are at its root.The structure itself reinforces the idea that some people are inherently more worthy than others.
Starhawk
Beware of organizations that proclaim their devotion to the light without embracing, bowing to the dark for when they idealize half the world they must devalue the rest.
Starhawk
Any ritual is an opportunity for transformation.
Starhawk
If we are to reclaim our culture, we cannot afford narrow definitions.
Starhawk
Where there's fear, there is power.
Starhawk
The test of a true myth is that each time you return to it, new insights and interpretations arise.
Starhawk
Spirituality leaps where science cannot yet follow, because science must always test and measure, and much of reality and human experience is immeasurable.
