The Truth of Lilith and Eve — What We Were Never Told About the Divine Feminine
This isn’t a retelling. It’s a remembering — one that begins in the soil of the forgotten and ends in the body of truth.
🔊 Listen to “The Truth of Lilith and Eve — What We Were Never Told About the Divine Feminine” if you prefer.
Hey. Hi there. Let’s have a discussion about the falsehood of the Divine Feminine.
Can I ask you something?
What were you told about the Garden of Eden?
Have you ever heard the truth of Lilith and Eve?
Maybe you heard it like this — there was a woman, a serpent, and a single forbidden act that ruined everything.
Eve reached for what she wasn’t meant to touch. She listened when she should’ve stayed quiet.
She tasted the fruit. For that, she was blamed for the fall of the world and the end of paradise.
It sounds ancient, but it’s still echoing, isn’t it? That one-sided story that has stretched through time, mostly from religion that was using it as control and diminishment.
That soft hum echoed that these women were too emotional and weak. Sometimes as harsh as sinful and not worthy of “God’s” love.
The story we inherited was never just about a garden.
It was about control and about teaching women that silence was safety, and men that dominance was their birthright.
A rewriting that turned divine partnership into a hierarchy that was never meant to be.
But underneath that version, another truth has been waiting — patient, alive, and untamed.
The False Truths We Were Fed
Eve wasn’t born from a man’s rib.
She was born from the same earth, clay, breath, and spark of Adam.
Lilith, the first woman, came before her. She was Adam’s equal in every way, not his shadow.
When he demanded she lie beneath him, she said no. Not with bitterness, not with rebellion — with remembrance.
“I am not beneath you, nor above you — I am beside you, made from the same dust that called us both into being.”
— attributed to Lilith, The Alphabet of Ben Sira (reinterpreted)
For that, she was erased, renamed, and demonized.
The first woman in history was punished for choosing herself.
Eve came later, carrying the following thread in the feminine story.
And when she took the fruit, she wasn’t disobeying — she was awakening.
That act wasn’t about sin; it was about evolution.
“The serpent said, You will not die — your eyes shall be opened, and you shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.” — Genesis 3:4-5
Think about that.
It wasn’t death that followed knowledge — it was awareness.
The serpent wasn’t a trickster but a messenger — a mirror of transformation, wisdom, and divine feminine knowing.
When the story was rewritten, the message became fear: don’t question, don’t reach, don’t want more.
But the original message was freedom.
The Real Story of Lilith and Eve
Lilith and Eve were never enemies — they are two parts of the same feminine soul.
Lilith is the breath before creation — the raw, untamed force that refuses to be caged.
Eve is the breath after — the curiosity that brings light into form.
One carries the fire of sovereignty, the other carries the grace of awakening.
Together, they are wholeness.
Together, they remember what the Garden really was — not a paradise of obedience, but a field of choice.
The patriarchal rewrite made Eve’s hunger for knowledge a curse and blasphemy.
However, her hunger was a grab for enlightenment and the truth.
It’s what pulls us from innocence into awareness, from imitation into embodiment.
“The fruit was never forbidden; it was the courage to taste that changed everything.” — Aurelenyia.
What True Feminine Energy Really Is
True feminine energy doesn’t apologize for its depth or its purpose.
It’s the rhythm of birth, death, and rebirth. Some may have heard this reflected as Maiden, Mother, Crone—a constant movement between surrender and creation.
It feels everything. It knows without needing proof.
The feminine doesn’t rise to overpower anyone. She rises to restore.
With undeniable soft power.
It’s in the way she feels the truth before she speaks it.
In the way she creates wholeness from what others call hopeless.
And the masculine? This article is not diminishing the power of the Divine Masculine. When it lives in truth at its highest, it doesn’t suppress that energy. It stands beside the feminine in unison.
It gives her flow grounding and structure, protection for her fire.
And she, in turn, brings life to his vision, intuition to his action, softness to his strength, and heart to his purpose.
They were never meant to compete, only to co-create.
When both energies remember who they are, the world begins to heal. The vision of the garden and enlightenment, of direct communication with “God, Source,” awakens and is remembered in its wholeness.
Reclaiming the Forgotten Garden
Every woman who stops apologizing for her knowing —
who trusts her intuition, who chooses herself —
She becomes the rewrite.
Every man who honors that truth. Chooses to listen without fear and stands without the need to control.
He then becomes part of the union of remembering.
The Garden was never lost; it was buried under shame and story.
But it’s still here, beneath our feet and within our hearts.
Waiting for both energies to return to a beautiful partnership.
Ask yourself this?
What if the serpent was never the enemy?
What if the knowledge was never the sin?
What if the real fall wasn’t Eve’s at all?
What if Lilith was not the demon they betrayed her for?
What if the forgetting that Eve and Lilith were both divine was a lie to extinguish the Divine Feminine?
And maybe, just maybe, we were never meant to be cast out of Eden.
We were meant to realize that Eden has always been inside us, and it never left. It is the Source of all things.
Let’s remember the wild, the wise, and the union is all.
“When a woman remembers her truth, the world remembers balance.“
— Aureleynia
