There's much to love about the story of the Hunter and the Fox Woman. But there is also much to regret about what inevitably happens.
So the Fox Woman says "I will be woman of this hut." and her fur gives off a "strong, regal scent." So her scent "gets into the mind of the Hunter, gets into the clothes of the hunter, it gets into everything." "There's just one thing," the Hunter says, asking her to leave outside the door of the hut the very essence of who she is.
And when Fox Woman is gone. When her pelt is gone. When her scent is gone, "the Hunter stands lonely in his whole body at the entrance of the hut for the scent of the Fox Woman."
So yes, as Martin Shaw says, "Somewhere in history we have exiled the Fox Woman." Some of us have willingly left our pelts "outside the door."
And yet, regrettably, there are attempts to sing across the snow to the Fox woman, to call her back.
I've really been looking forward to the “55 Flavors of The Feminine” practice card deck!
I'll post them as soon as the design is finished. I'm super excited about them. First of a series...the Archetypes are coming soon too.

Yes! And some of us have taken the Pelt and left into the woods!!!
Yep!
I loved the line about the swan of love wrapping its wings around them
