Wow. Your words bring chills through my body. The unveiling of beauty in the depths of darkness through reverence for Kali is phenomenal. I’ve not personally studied too much of her identity through the texts, but from recognizing symbols, I have come to similar understandings of Kali. I find it important to keep space for her in my own life. I swim in the shadows, and so as not to drown, I recognize the growth that comes from rot as necessary and beautiful. I will probably never be one who frolics in the light, but I’m okay with this. Om Krim Kalikayai Namah.
