Queen of Heaven beside her King
Sacred Tree beside the Temple
Female with Male
Two are One in Divine Harmony.
Raisin cakes baked for her
Libations of wine poured out
Women worshipped her
Knowing they were created in her image.
But man feared woman’s power
Afraid she would deny him
Could not let her shine
Refused to share the spotlight.
He tore down the Sacred Trees
Named her as an idol
Banished her name
Denied her very existence.
In all the years since
Woman has been subjugated
A plaything for man to control
Not even her own person.
Now Asherah is rising
Air, Fire, Water, Earth
Cyclones, fires, floods, quakes
The Elements are raging.
Divinity is broken
We are able to correct it
Restore the Queen to her King
For in this day, Asherah is rising!
