Summary: Women's intuition has long been a subject of fascination and debate. This article delves into the historical, cultural, and spiritual aspects of women's intuition, exploring its roots in ancient civilizations, religious practices, and societal structures. From the influence of the Hyksos and Merovingians to the role of women in religious cults and the controversial portrayal of Mary Magdalene, we uncover the complex interplay between gender, power, and spirituality. We also examine the enduring impact of these historical narratives on contemporary perceptions of women's intuition and their role in society.

The Historical Context of Women's Intuition

The Hyksos and Merovingians

The propaganda against the Jews may have been initially stirred by the Benjaminites,Women's Intuition: A Historical and Cultural Exploration Articles who were expelled from the Holy Land by the Israelites. The House of Judah, or Merovingians, had their Phoenician (Hyksos) kin transport these elite overlords to Arcadia in Greece. From there, they spread to various regions where their trading empires were already established.

The Influence of Osiris and Mediterranean Gods

"The Golden Bough," a seminal work on religion and magic, reveals that scholars like Plutarch believed many prominent male gods of the Mediterranean were imitations of Osiris, the original colonizer of Egypt. Apollo, Dionysius, and others began to have red-headed people offered at the graves of Osiris and these gods during frequent rituals. This shift reflects the growing independence of colonies and their resistance to the Hyksos (Phoenician Kelts) 'foreigners.' This period also saw an increase in fortifications and indoor temples as regional priesthoods sought greater power.

The Rise of Divine Proclamation

Alexander the Great and Akhenaton/Nefertiti/Moses

The desire for men to proclaim themselves divine while still alive became prominent. While many scholars argue that Alexander the Great was the first to do this, there is evidence suggesting that Akhenaton/Nefertiti/Moses, possibly a single person, had a similar ego. This notion is supported by Gardner and the actual bodies in the sarcophagi. It is my belief that most nations are born out of ego rather than a genuine desire to improve governance. Those who claim that government has improved are often paid by the government itself, perpetuating a system that benefits sovereign nations rather than personal growth and empowerment.

The Role of Religious Cults

Sexual Gratification and Spiritual Growth

One of the purposes of Dionysian and other religious cults was sexual gratification, which some may have used for soulful growth. The Bacchanals likely practiced Tantric sexual systems, and there were undoubtedly individuals with less noble motives, similar to modern Thelemics like Crowley and L. Ron Hubbard. Fraser's "The Golden Bough" provides evidence of temple-enforced prostitution, benefiting the temple's coffers and offering priests free opportunities. This practice is appalling, especially considering the Catholic Church's historical allowance of concubinage despite its celibacy requirement.

Tantrism and Wicca

Sexual union can provide profound insights, as seen in Tantrism and Wicca with their 'working-partners.' Kundalini and Bhakti are spiritual uses of sexual and chakric energy. Neolithic libraries, stelae, and bas-reliefs depict various sexual or Sutra-type positions, indicating that people have learned from these experiences for as long as humanity has existed. Despite the repression of such potentials, women have gained great understanding and wisdom through these experiences, even when reduced to slaves or harem chattel.

The Controversial Portrayal of Mary Magdalene

Propaganda and the Gospels

Propagandists from the time of Christ and the Gospels, written 30 to 70 years after his death, portrayed Mary as a prostitute and Jesus as the Dark Prince for associating with her and drinking fermented grape. This narrative conflicts with the idea of Jesus having a co-equal mortal mate and diverges from Augustine's concept of 'Original Sin,' which casts women as its harbingers. Authors like Jerome, Philo the Jew, Josephus, and Paul contributed to this propaganda, while figures like Origen and Clement resisted the deceit.

The Dead Sea Scrolls and Rennes-le-Chateau

The Dead Sea Scrolls include a leather scriptural document attributed to Abraham, which would have impressed the impressionable but is now known to be a fake through carbon dating. In a more speculative vein, the Rennes-le-Chateau artwork depicts Jesus in plaid swaddling clothes. This area, rich in historical and archaeological significance, includes a natural pentagram formed by the Pyrenees, a Druidic University, and ancient mines off the coast of present-day Marseilles.

The Legacy of Ancient Civilizations

The Cathars, Templars, and Phoenician Brotherhood

The Cathars, Templars, and the treasures of Solomon and the Phoenician drug trade are all part of the complex history of the region. Rennes-le-Chateau is significant to Mary and the family of Jesus, and the Magdalenian culture and the Basque people played a role in ancient trade routes. Archaeological evidence suggests human habitation in this area dating back almost 500,000 years.

The Giza Pyramids and Advanced Technology

There are intriguing claims about bagpipes being depicted on the Great Pyramid during its early construction days, despite no evidence of Cheops except a cartouche from reconstruction crews. The Giza Pyramids and their funerary stories may have been fabrications by later people who misunderstood their true purpose and the advanced technology required to build them. The precision of the King's Chamber bed, with its 1/150th of an inch fit, suggests the use of ultrasonic drills or other advanced technology, unlikely for the 'hunters and gatherers' of ancient Egypt.

Virginia Woolf's Insight on Nations

A Woman's Perspective

Virginia Woolf's profound insight on nations highlights the disconnect between women's experiences and the motivations behind national conflicts. She writes:

"Therefore if you insist upon fighting to protect me, or ‘our’ country, let it be understood, soberly and rationally between us, that you are fighting to gratify a sex instinct which I cannot share; to procure benefits which I have not shared and probably will not share; but not to gratify my instincts, or to protect myself or my country, ‘For’, the outsider will say, ‘in fact, as a woman, I have no country, As a woman I want no country. As a woman my country is the whole world.’ And if, when reason has had its say, still some obstinate emotion remains, some love of England dropped into a child’s ear by the cawing of rooks in an elm tree, by the splash of waves on a beach, or by English voices murmuring nursery rhymes, this drop of pure, if irrational, emotion she will serve her to give to England first what she desires of peace and freedom for the whole world." (3)

Conclusion

Women's intuition, deeply rooted in historical, cultural, and spiritual contexts, continues to be a subject of fascination and debate. From ancient civilizations to modern interpretations, the complex interplay between gender, power, and spirituality shapes our understanding of women's intuition and their role in society. By examining these historical narratives, we can gain a deeper appreciation of the enduring impact of women's intuition and its significance in our world today.
