I got this from the dark Goddesses tribe. I think it fits well here too. It expresses our own inner warriors Goddesses that need to lash out and scream. Please click on the link below for it gives great life examples entitled - Bitch Contents. Great info - Love it!
I'm the bitch from hell.
I think you know me well.
I am the dark goddess
kali, hecate, lilith, morrigan, ereshkigal
These faces of the feminine are much less easily acceptable than those of Aphrodite the Goddess of Love or Demeter the Great Mother. But it is in the energy of the dark goddesses that a vast store of feminine power lies.
kali is the creator and the destroyer. She is depicted as one who cuts off the heads of men. Scary stuff! But this is a symbolic representation, it is not actually their Life she is after, simply their Ego.
The dark goddess lives in us all. Often suppressed and denied she will eventually leak out in hostility and sarcasm, with sly cutting digs, nagging, gossip and put downs. She reveals herself at her most ugly in our closest relationships. Liz Taylor in "Who's Afraid of Virginia Wolfe" plays her out admirably. Jung calls her the 'animus suppressed'. She is everything that nice girls are not. Suppressed too far she turns her destructive energy inwards and creates depression and disease.
The energy of the dark goddess brews and bubbles in the belly. Suppressing her simply adds bite to her words when they do manage to escape. If the energy of fermentation in a bottle of rich wine starts to become more than the cork can contain the wine will ooze out. If we ignore this and shove the cork back down harder the build up will become greater and next time the leaks will become spurts. Finally the pressure will shoot the cork off completely and the precious liquid will be lost. This is the path of denial, of refusing to acknowledge the truth that needs to be spoken. The alternative is to appreciate that bottle, to nurture the rich gift that is brewing, turn it and tend to it and to choose when the cork should be removed and the sweet dark flavour be offered to the world.
Accepted and celebrated the dark goddesses give us the strength to overcome the fear of rejection and to dare to stand in our truth and tell it how we see it. This is an enormously empowering experience.

Re: Bitch from Hell
Sat, June 21, 2008 - 5:55 PMAll the Ancient teachings point out that the Goddess has a Fourth face, the one never spoken about. Just as the moon, who influences us in the feminine side of nature, there is a dark side. It is so important to be aware of that, and to acknowledge that side of our nature even if we choose (Yes, Choose, as we were born with free will, thank heaven!) not to act upon it. If we ignore it it will manifest itself when least wanted or expected. This evocative post says it all, and I thank you Epona, for sharing it with us here, as never before have I heard or read the Dark Goddess described in such a way, as She Is ignored. Thank you also for pointing out if we acknowledge that side we have better control over it. -

I know this Fourth face and I use it in a tempered fashion in my Writings to try and shake the Complacency that exists in this Present time!
