You see? Just mentioning the sacred concept of the Goddess brings out, in those who are open to Her, a spirit of celebration, humor, music and dance, magic and love. At the same time, those who fear her liberating touch display their gloomiest aspects, which is also a testament to Her power.
In fact, I think I could say that the heart of our most recent Awakening era (1964-1984) was a reawakening of the Goddess. Consider the sexual liberation of the times, the divine intoxication and revival of Dionysian values (Dionysus being a God, of course, but one with notably androgynous aspect), the triumph of gender equality, the new reverence for the Earth. And of course, the expansion of Wicca and other overtly Goddess-based religions.
The Goddess is our hope of love and freedom. Naturally the gray-faced devotees of the slave-gods would drive her back, as they would drive women back into "their place," but against the power of the Goddess awakened they cannot win.
