Exploring the Divine Feminine
We discuss the Mother in Heaven, the Patriarchal Order, Priesthood, Marriage, as well as female and male roles within the LDS community. Not a feminist group, but one that explores all things related to the power created through the combination of the feminine and masculine.Get your copy of "We are Adam: the Partnership of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden and what it means for you", mentioned in this podcast, here: https://www.amazon.com/We-Are-Adam-Partnership-Garden/dp/1462138241/ref=sr_1_1?crid=RNSLJWDLB89B&dchild=1&keywords=we+are+adam+ramona+siddoway&qid=1602263514&sprefix=we+are+adam%2Caps%2C219&sr=8-1Read more at ramonasiddoway.com Follow me on Medium.comFollow me on Instagram: @exploringthefeminedivine

In this brief episode I share some thoughts about leaning into our divine femininity and the struggle some women have in and with culture. Learning about Heavenly Mother cannot be separated from her son Jesus Christ, nor her husband and partner, Heavenly Father. Separating the divine masculine and feminine comes at devastating costs.

In this episode, we discuss how the scriptures show the pattern of Father and Mother as co-creators. They worked together not only in the Genesis account of the earth's creation, but also when Mary was quickened by the Holy Ghost and the Son of God was created in her womb.
As always, these are my thoughts as I read the scriptural accounts, and not doctrine from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

If we are going to discuss our Mother in Heaven seriously, we have to address the issue of polygamy. In this episode, I address several myths that have been perpetuated in our LDS culture, almost from the inception of the practice of polygamy—all of which are speculations and have been debunked.
Listen as I discuss whether or not polygamy is:
*The law or an exception to the law
*Was taught as a requisite for the celestia...
In this episode, I share some thoughts about the seeming lack of transparency concerning Heavenly Mother. 1) There is a preordained path to both parents, 2) we have access to the "code" to decipher who she is and where to find her, 3) she is known by a specific name, and 4) there is a pattern for all things, including learning about and recognizing the Mother.
I also share some sneak peeks about my upcoming b...
In this episode, I discuss Lehi's vision of the Tree of Life and symbols that point to the Tree of Life not only as the Divine Feminine but as the tree that sweetens and purifies the bitter. We will review the three rooms in Solomon's Temple and how this vision represents those same three rooms as stages in a temple setting.

The Matriarchal Order--which sits alongside the Patriarchal Order--can be viewed (in part) as pertaining to the ordinances of the flesh.

Jesus recognized Mary's act as an anointing connecting with his impending death. This is also when he said, “Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached throughout the whole world, this also that she hath done shall be spoken of for a memorial of her” (Mark 14:9).

I love learning about Mary and Jesus! In the Nag Hammadi library we have a curious statement by Jesus stating that he shall make Mary "male." While there are some unique commentaries on this, may I offer another suggestion that ties in with the "mysteries" of the kingdom and the temple?
I discuss Abraham 4:18 and how that applies to unity in marriage. I also love talking about marriage hacks that help spouses reach a consensus in their councils, and share some personal examples from my own marriage.
Let me know some of your tricks that help you and your spouse make decisions together!

Welcome to Part two as we discuss women, priesthood keys, witnesses, and resurrection. I go over the recorded instances of women as Special Witnesses of Christ and the interesting archetypes in the scriptures of women, goddesses, and their ties to resurrection.
The resources that I used are as follows:

* Kevin and Shauna Christensen, “Nephite Feminism Revisited: Thoughts on Carol Ly...
In this episode I discuss how we do not have all the priesthood keys as of yet. Some of those we are not given in this earth life and must wait until we are on the other side, and some cannot be used except by a Divine Pair.

In this episode I discuss three important identities we possess as women in the gospel of Jesus Christ, married or not, children or no children. It's important to search for and understand our true identities and not let the disempowering philosophies of the world suffocate or render us powerless.

We finish up the discussion about wisdom, the Tree of life and its oil, and the connection with the Divine Feminine. Learn about witnesses in all of the scriptures.

The Burden is a documentary series that takes listeners into the hidden places where justice is done (and undone). It dives deep into the lives of heroes and villains. And it focuses a spotlight on those who triumph even when the odds are against them. Season 5 - The Burden: Death & Deceit in Alliance On April Fools Day 1999, 26-year-old Yvonne Layne was found murdered in her Alliance, Ohio home. David Thorne, her ex-boyfriend and father of one of her children, was instantly a suspect. Another young man admitted to the murder, and David breathed a sigh of relief, until the confessed murderer fingered David; “He paid me to do it.” David was sentenced to life without parole. Two decades later, Pulitzer winner and podcast host, Maggie Freleng (Bone Valley Season 3: Graves County, Wrongful Conviction, Suave) launched a “live” investigation into David's conviction alongside Jason Baldwin (himself wrongfully convicted as a member of the West Memphis Three). Maggie had come to believe that the entire investigation of David was botched by the tiny local police department, or worse, covered up the real killer. Was Maggie correct? Was David’s claim of innocence credible? In Death and Deceit in Alliance, Maggie recounts the case that launched her career, and ultimately, “broke” her.” The results will shock the listener and reduce Maggie to tears and self-doubt. This is not your typical wrongful conviction story. In fact, it turns the genre on its head. It asks the question: What if our champions are foolish? Season 4 - The Burden: Get the Money and Run “Trying to murder my father, this was the thing that put me on the path.” That’s Joe Loya and that path was bank robbery. Bank, bank, bank, bank, bank. In season 4 of The Burden: Get the Money and Run, we hear from Joe who was once the most prolific bank robber in Southern California, and beyond. He used disguises, body doubles, proxies. He leaped over counters, grabbed the money and ran. Even as the FBI was closing in. It was a showdown between a daring bank robber, and a patient FBI agent. Joe was no ordinary bank robber. He was bright, articulate, charismatic, and driven by a dark rage that he summoned up at will. In seven episodes, Joe tells all: the what, the how… and the why. Including why he tried to murder his father. Season 3 - The Burden: Avenger Miriam Lewin is one of Argentina’s leading journalists today. At 19 years old, she was kidnapped off the streets of Buenos Aires for her political activism and thrown into a concentration camp. Thousands of her fellow inmates were executed, tossed alive from a cargo plane into the ocean. Miriam, along with a handful of others, will survive the camp. Then as a journalist, she will wage a decades long campaign to bring her tormentors to justice. Avenger is about one woman’s triumphant battle against unbelievable odds to survive torture, claim justice for the crimes done against her and others like her, and change the future of her country. Season 2 - The Burden: Empire on Blood Empire on Blood is set in the Bronx, NY, in the early 90s, when two young drug dealers ruled an intersection known as “The Corner on Blood.” The boss, Calvin Buari, lived large. He and a protege swore they would build an empire on blood. Then the relationship frayed and the protege accused Calvin of a double homicide which he claimed he didn’t do. But did he? Award-winning journalist Steve Fishman spent seven years to answer that question. This is the story of one man’s last chance to overturn his life sentence. He may prevail, but someone’s gotta pay. The Burden: Empire on Blood is the director’s cut of the true crime classic which reached #1 on the charts when it was first released half a dozen years ago. Season 1 - The Burden In the 1990s, Detective Louis N. Scarcella was legendary. In a city overrun by violent crime, he cracked the toughest cases and put away the worst criminals. “The Hulk” was his nickname. Then the story changed. Scarcella ran into a group of convicted murderers who all say they are innocent. They turned themselves into jailhouse-lawyers and in prison founded a lway firm. When they realized Scarcella helped put many of them away, they set their sights on taking him down. And with the help of a NY Times reporter they have a chance. For years, Scarcella insisted he did nothing wrong. But that’s all he’d say. Until we tracked Scarcella to a sauna in a Russian bathhouse, where he started to talk..and talk and talk. “The guilty have gone free,” he whispered. And then agreed to take us into the belly of the beast. Welcome to The Burden.
