If “She” has consciously chosen to let her hair down from a comfortable hairdo of combed plaits, pony tails and buns something has already transformed inside. Draupadi knew her desire when she let her hair down which demanded nothing less than the blood of Dushasan who played a pivotal role in a moment of shame in a place and palace where she was to be held in respect as the Kulvadhu. Never confront a woman in anger for Kali does wear her hair loose in her destructive wrath.
Only a man as conscious as Shiva knows what power He is in when he lets his hair loose too. It is either the moment to receive the Great Ganges or the dance of destruction.
The hair bears great testimony to the seasons a woman has gone through in her inner journey. It compliments her exactly the way she intends to present herself choosing its length, style, color, treatment and the shade she is going to get comfortable in the next season of her life. I am still struggling with my greys and need more courage to have them seen so it’s still hair dyes and streaking for me. My hair reminds me of gaps where I am still not accepting myself totally. The soul tribe of truly beautiful women needn’t declare what they do professionally but the days when they let their hair do the talking the conversations are different. The tresses reflect the aura of power and confidence shining with vital force oozing from their brave hearts filled with unconditional love. Their healing shows as streaks of different shades. They are rooted into earth like the old wise rosewood trees. The power of their intentions is enough to bless the souls that will come in their energetic fields unborn, born and passed over. They heal everybody who invites them with gifts they have and leave imprints behind.
Some days particularly opportunities arrive when one has to show up as her authentic self and as a lady who has finally chosen to let their hair down!
You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth.
The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite, and He bends you with His might that his arrows may go swift and far.
Let your bending in the archer’s hand be for gladness;
For even as He loves the arrow that flies,so He loves also the bow that is stable.
Kahlil Gibran
