Australian Aboriginal Culture: True Matriarchy

The Midwitch - A podcast by Anita Katherine

Categories:

I sit down with Jamie, a proud Gamilaroi woman and one of my greatest teachers and friends, to discuss true matriarchy - as it were (and still is) a part of Aboriginal Culture. We discuss spirituality, respect for women, women's business, community, circles and business grounds, animal totems, connection to the Earth and her cycles, the differences between Matriarchy and our Patriarchal Mainstream Australia today, Motherhood, Birth, the significance of the 'Because of Her We Can' NAIDOC theme and what Jamie has taught me through observing the forgiving, peaceful, respectful way she walks this land. Jamie and I have had many a chat around these topics, but I feel so grateful that she shared her story and ancient feminine wisdom with all of us in this episode.
