Dine' Woman

Dine’, or Navajo, teachings emphasize women’s deep spiritual understanding and intuition, alongside a capacity for emotion and feeling.  The concept of women is also represented by the revered spiritual figure Changing Woman (Asdzaa Nádleehé), a goddess central to their mythology who embodies the cyclical nature of life, transformation, and creation.

The reference photo of this woman showed up in my life right when I needed to be reminded of the Divine Feminine and I believe she represents all that and more.
