    Wisdom Wednesday Long Form: From War to Weaving: Living the Shift to the Violet Ray

    The world feels locked in the red ray—force, threat, intimidation. Our mentor, Oh Shinnáh, taught that a shift is underway toward the violet ray—compassion, balance, repair. The goal isn’t to erase strength. It is to transmute it. In this week’s Wisdom Wednesday we name the teaching, honor the line of wild, wise women who kept it alive—from Hildegard to Mary Magdalene—and offer four practices you can start now: forgive, self-reflect, speak to restore, add a simple ritual. From war to weaving. Start today. Full episode on the red vs. violet rays is coming—stay tuned.
