    As a woman with a husband and other partners, philosopher Carrie Jenkins knows that love is complicated. 
     
     
     
    Love is most often associated with happiness, satisfaction, and pleasure. But it has a darker side we ignore at our peril. Love is often an uncomfortable and difficult feeling. The people we love can let us down badly. And the ways we love are often quite different to the romantic ideals society foists upon us. Since we are inevitably disappointed by love, wouldn't we be better off without it? 
     
     
     
    No, says Carrie Jenkins. Instead, we need a new philosophy of love, one that recognizes that the pain and suffering love causes are a natural, even a good part of what makes love worthwhile. What Jenkins calls "sad love" offers no bogus "happy ever afters". Rather, it tries to find a way properly to integrate heartbreak and disappointment into the lived experience of love. 
     
     
     
    It's time we liberated love.

    Our world is out of balance; so far out of balance we've almost forgotten there was ever an alternative.We know the age-old story of oppression of the Goddess in favour of a patriarchal force, and the ways that same story has played out over the centuries and generations to impact upon all those who identify as women. 
    But what if we were to step back from that story and look at the ways it plays out more broadly too and how we - and our planet - are suffering as a result. 
    Divine Feminism invites us to look deeper at this inequality, and consider the ways that all things considered "feminine" have been treated as less than over the centuries and generations. 
    This book is your invitation to reconnect with those aspects within and for ourselves and the world; to find the sacred balance and flow that lies beyond the dualities society has inflicted upon us and allow them to bring you not only back to yourself, but to a life that helps you remind the world there is another way. 
    Ceryn Rowntree is a Therapist, Coach, Medium and host of the Divine Feminist podcast. A practicing witch, she lives with her dog Lagertha in Northumberland, UK and is never happier than when the two of them are walking in the woods together.

    Naturalism - Reality Through the...

    Naturalism is a philosophical worldview that asserts that everything that exists, and every phenomenon that occurs, is a product of natural laws and processes. It contends that the universe operates without the need for supernatural explanations or interventions. In essence, naturalism posits that the natural world, as observed through science, is all there is. This perspective has deep roots in both philosophy and science, offering a framework for understanding reality that relies heavily on empirical evidence and reasoned inquiry. 
    At its core, naturalism rejects supernatural forces, divine beings, or metaphysical entities as explanations for natural phenomena. Instead, it emphasizes that everything in the universe, from the smallest particles to the vastness of the cosmos, can be understood in terms of physical, biological, and chemical laws. Naturalism also suggests that humans, as part of the natural world, are subject to the same laws governing the rest of the universe. This view aligns closely with the scientific method, which is built upon observation, experimentation, and the continual refinement of theories based on evidence. 
    In defining naturalism, it is essential to recognize its distinction from other philosophical frameworks. Unlike idealism, which asserts that reality is primarily mental or spiritual, naturalism asserts the primacy of the material world. Similarly, it differs from supernaturalism, which attributes the workings of the universe to forces beyond natural laws, such as gods or spirits. Naturalism’s embrace of the empirical allows it to form the foundation for scientific inquiry, fostering advancements in fields ranging from physics and biology to psychology and medicine.
