What is the Goddess?

- What is the Goddess? -

What is the Goddess? Where is She?
What is the Goddess not? She is everywhere.
She is the infinite and the finite,
Though even finite, Her glory cannot be measured.
She is the order that is born from the chaos that She Herself creates.
She is the peace that is crafted from the righteous wars She fights.
She is the thief of hearts and souls,
Though She has stolen nothing that was not already: Her own.
She is the unseen force that is seen by all,
She is the face of the invisible.
She is the weaver: who spins the threads of fate,
As well as the hand that cuts them.
She is the maker of life and love,
For She is the life of all who live,
And: the breath of all who breathe.
She is the destroyer of the fleshly illusion,
For She is the truth beyond all lies,
And: the light of those whom She illuminates.
She is the eye that sees all,
And She is the sight of all who truly see.
She is the faith of the blind,
And the strength of the weak,
Though in Her, all weakness is overcome.
She is the body of the bodiless,
She is the form of the formless,
And: the totality of nothingness.
She is Void and Creation,
She is the word of the unutterable,
And: the mind of the inconceivable.
She is the boundless and the bound,
Though all art bound to Her.
She is the love of those who art loved by Her,
And the providence of those for whom She providentially cares.
She is the wisdom of those who art made wise in Her,
She is the power of those to whom She gives power.
She is the assembly of those who art assembled before Her.
She is the revelation of the things most sought after.
She is the fountain, which flows from the Divine garden,
She is the root of all that is planted,
And the Goddess of all who exist,
Though She existed before all else was made.
She is the desert that burns forever,
She is the sand of the infernal wasteland,
And the Goddess of the dead,
Though She is eternal and undying.
She is the unity of those who art united in Her,
For all of them exist in the single one.
She is that one, for She is the many,
For many art one, in Her.
Is the Goddess anything that can be defined?
Nothing can define Her, for She is everything,
And everything in Her is of the Divine.
