The Primal Rage of Women – A Departure for Transformation


ree

The primal rage of women is not a spontaneous, uncontrollable reaction, but a deep, archaic force that has grown over millennia. It is the expression of a centuries-old resistance to oppression and disregard - a collective echo of women who have never been heard. In this anger lies the story of women who have been broken, cut or simply ignored. This primal rage is not just a feeling, but a signpost to a deeper form of awakening.

When women feel this anger within themselves, it is more than just a protest. It is the moment of awakening in which they recognize themselves as fighters , creators and bearers of life . It is a form of rebellion against the patriarchal structures that have determined women's lives for generations and taken away their freedom.

Myths and stories around the world reflect this primal rage. It manifests itself in the vengeful goddesses of antiquity, the witches of the Middle Ages or the revolutionary fighters of our time. What is often overlooked, however, is that this rage is not destructive for its own sake, but transformative . It is a resistance that not only demands the disintegration of old, unjust systems, but also the creation of new, just worlds.

In the private and political spheres, this anger is expressed through the courage to push boundaries and the refusal to remain silent. It is the impetus to create change . This anger is loud, uncomfortable, inconvenient - exactly what is needed to break through the walls of ignorance and indifference.



The connection between knowledge and feeling

It is not enough to have knowledge about grievances; we must also feel what moves us. Only when we grasp the deep meaning of an issue through our feelings does knowledge come alive. The difference between knowledge and feeling is that between mind and heart. Knowledge can give us orientation, but it is feeling that really changes us.

Knowledge alone remains abstract and, however necessary, cannot lead us into the depths of human experience. Feeling is what anchors us in the here and now, what helps us to make the abstract tangible and to understand true pain or joy. It is what inspires us to change - out of outrage, compassion or longing.

Feeling is not always comfortable. It challenges us, it asks us to drop the masks and see the truth, even if it is painful. Only through feeling are we able to truly understand ourselves and the world around us.

This deep connection between knowing and feeling is the foundation of a transformative force – the primal rage of women who fight not only for themselves but also for the freedom and well-being of others.
