Respect! Herstory: Celebrating the Feminine Journey Series: 31 Goddesses Goddess #3: Yemaya Origin: West Africa & The Caribbean (Yoruba) In the African diaspora, Yemaya (Yemoja) is known as “Mami Watta” (Mother of the Water). She is the Nurturing Mother Goddess of living waters. While mostly known for being even-tempered, when angered Yemaya can be violent and relentless like a storm in the ocean. Her anger is righteous: She fiercely protects what she loves and restores balance to instability. She is often depicted as a mermaid, dressed in blue and white, with cowrie shells representing her vast wealth. Her strong and protective energy can be found virtually everywhere, but especially near oceans and lakes. Her Legacy: The power of surrendering to Divine flow, destruction to clear the way for new life, Divine protection of mothers and children, fertility, self-love, healing emotional wounds and trauma. May we connect to the Divine Feminine within us and remember who we are. -compiled by Molesey Crawford, The Queen Code, Inc Artist: Mikael Quites (www.mikaelquites.com) Works Consulted: “Legendary Ladies” by Ann Shen #womenshistorymonth #womensherstorymonth #herstory #queenascension #trusttheprocess #purpose #royalpath #royalpathmap #divinefeminine #goddessrebirth #ascension #5DQueen #ancientwisdom #oldsoul #unchained #queencode #thequeencode #therealqueencode (at Times Square, New York City) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpVHrIrs2XG/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

We, the organisers of this exhibition - MAriska MA Veepilaikaliyamma and Sarah Marquesen, are
delighted to see such a unique creative diversity and are happy to celebrate with all of you women's herstory month in form of this online virtual art exhibition.
Mouseion means Temple of the Muses and the word Museum is derived from it.
Artists throughout the ages have regarded women as muses. The museums are full of paintings of women, mostly in positions and postures satisfying the male gaze. Depictions of strong and independent women are rare and what is the rarest in museums–artworks by women artists. Museums all over the world still choose to organize exhibitions for male artists, praising them as geniuses for their visions, while many women artists do not get any recognition. In former times, they have been even declared insane and confined to psychiatric asylums.
We do not wait until the museums open their gates for us. They are patriarchal systems which do not give space to women. We are done with begging for acceptance. We start the creation of our own spaces...
