| Nature became culture and moved into the mind of humans... |
roydewi I'm 30 years old, Working as a make-up artist and hairstylist I got involved with the rituals and ceremonies on the Indonesian island of Java. These rituals and ceremonies are dedicated to the legendary Queen of The Southern Ocean. The Javanese people make beautifull offerings included make-up and hair articles. Because of that I started to look for the myths and legends about this phenomenon. I just could not believe over more than 33.000.000 people kept a secret in their heart, the Female Goddess Aspect! Their belief in this Female Goddess Aspect is not just superstition, but an aspect kept in their hearts... All legends belong to the supernatural power of a spiritual character. In these times of the popular come-back of the Goddess-belief it is incredible there are people who do really belief in the aspect of the Goddess. The Goddess who got besmirched, banned and defiled. We know that happened a long time ago. Like with the biblical Eve-woman, the beautifull Goddess Aphrodite, the Egyptian Goddess Isis, the poor Goddess-Mother Demeter, the Oriental beautifull Goddess Of Death Durga, the Chinese Goddess Of Mercy Kwan Yin and last but not least the Javanese Goddess Of The South-Sea with a lot of names, like the Gusti Kanjeng Ratu Kidul... the nymph Nyi Roro Kidoel... the virgin Nyai Loro Kidul... and the Goddess Sang Dewi Ratu Kidul... | |||||||||||||||||||

In the meantime why not check out the link below to get your own 20MB of free webspace? Like the Javanese rituals and ceremonies the legends of the South-Sea Queen must have excisted for ages and ages. Ofcourse you can not find Her name in the ancient times. Yes, you can!!! Her name Gusti Kanjeng Ratu Kidul literally means Her Majesty Queen Of The South. That sounds in a normal way, don't you think? That means the name does not belong to the East nor the West... In the Holy South a lot of strange things happened... Afterall the gorgeous but dangerous and poisened planet of Venus belongs to the South... The beautifull Queen Salom� had been described as the Queen Of The South (Matthew 12:42)... The Chinese Goddess Of Mercy Kwan Yin had been welcomed with a song named The Song Of The South... The Beauty-Goddess Aphrodite came out of the South, claimed by the Amazons... The daughter Persephone of the Mother-Goddess Demeter had been kidnapped and dragged to the South we know now as the Hades... The famous Hopi-Indians direct themselves to the South in their rituals... The beloved God Of Love Kama had to go to the South to get his soul... Even the darkness of the Goddess Kali is point to the South, the Hindus tell... | Virign Bride Of The Endless Waters | |||||||||||||||||||
