My take on it is that they are using the wrong fluid. The creative power of the female body is to enable consciousness to descend into matter, creating a new life. Menstrual blood means the egg died, so I find it idiotic to celebrate the female creative power with it (thought its ok for celebrating other things, such as sex for one.) I find it better to celebrate with the fertile mucous that appears just prior to ovulation. This screw-up (pun intended) using menstrual blood has to be something a (duh!) man invented so in that way I find the ritual sexist. Sure its more effort to learn about the female reproductive tract and to be attentive enough to detect the changes (any twit can notice the blood), but the extra effort is worth it. >Note that Crowley's variation is typical of his age and culture in that it >supplies heavily gender-distiguished roles for the participants; the man >becomes in essense the priest and the woman becomes the goddess or >one-offered-to. Hmmmmm.... That part doesn't bother me. I think it depends on how you look at it. Being the goddess does not = being powerless. Also, both male and female fluids are offered up, so I don't see how one can be said to be the priest and the other something else. Both participants can be seen as priest, priestess, god and goddess and sacrifice, etc... - Peggy - - Peggy -
