Kookaburra Woman

Kookaburra Woman is the truth seeker and the truth teller — the one whose call breaks through illusion and announces the terrain of what must come next. After the deep dive into devourance, after the bones have been stripped and the underworld has spoken, she arrives with her unmistakable cackle, rippling through all realms: above, below, and centre.

Her laughter is not one of lightness but a wise knowing — a sound that clears the air, marks the boundaries and invites us to step into our own truth with courage. She prepares us for the journey ahead, calling us into alignment, into power, into the centred place from which expression can rise.

Kookaburra Woman teaches voice — the brave and embodied kind, a companion to remind us that truth is a territory, and claiming it is a rite of passage.

The Call

She throws her head back

to drink in the light of the stars

to feed from the blood of the moon

Laughter tears and sadness cries

flows from her silken eyes,

diamond rapids down her cheeks and spine

All. Wide. Open

Her mouth.

Her heart.

Her wings.

Receiving the Call from beyond

She hears them cackling her Name

Kooka, Kooka,

Mother of the Sky

Kooka, Kooka,

Sister of the Wind

Kooka, Kooka, Koo KA KA

Oh Woman of the Deep

Who has flown all terrains,

Soared all realms

above, below and centre

Diving in and out and through

Wading out of the Stormy Dark

and cutting through the Blinding Light

The One who can hold the holy flames in her lap

Fuelling the embers with her ancient breath,

Thick smoke furls around her breasts

She Descends

Swoops down, plunging to the ground

Digging into the Deep, where all of it lays

She devours, devours it all

Every piece

And the taste of truth pervades her bones

flavours of sweetened muddy ash

She savours this moment,

Her feathered arms tenderly brushing the hallowed earth beneath

She throws her head back

and takes it all in,

which seems like a thousand years long…….

Kooka, Kooka

Her unwavering presence is broken,

broken by the Call

Kooka, Kooka

She rises from her prayer mat

Her body emerges broad and full

a sweeping circle of dirt and leaves

twirl and spin and pull

She flies

Kooka, Kooka

Nothing can contain the vastness of her Love

the loyalty of her hinterland heart

Kooooo-KA, Koooo-KA, she replies

Her voice creates and dissolves universes

For she was born out of the Deep

Birthed from the blood of the Moon

and the light of the Stars

The Song in her Throat

Oh Mother Isis! I hear your Call

Koo ka ka!

I am given life by the song in your throat

and the unfurling rose in your heart

Koo ka ka!

I am given breath by the fire in your belly

And the prayers spiraling in your womb

Koo ka ka!

I am rooted in golden light

my body a temple

filled with the mystic honey, I recite

Beloved Mother,

I have travelled far and wide

through uncharted galaxies

circled a thousand moons

to arrive back here, on this hallowed ground

to breathe my breath

back up to you

Oh Mother Isis! Hear my Call

I have come from a Land of ancient red sand

of shimmering horizons and oceans blue

Flown across all terrains

Bloodlines

Leylines

Songlines

I know

I know, the way through

Koo ka ka!

I know who I am

I am She who serves in the Temple walls

To light the dawn fires

To Welcome the Sun from the Underworld night

I spin magic and brew the cocoa elixirs

And dance to the Goddess and her Holy Rites

I sing

I scribe

I heal

I drum

I make love

I make medicine

I hold

I am alchemist

I am sacred Witness

Sekhem, I am Devotion

Koo ka , I am Love

I yearn for tenderness

I seek the Truth

I bleed magic

I fight and nurture

I dive into the burning salt bush

and remain there in ruins

Until I rise again, reborn from my own ashes

Sekhem, I am Woman

Koo ka ka, I – AM - Woman

Born of the red and golden sands

Sister to the Temple

Woman of the heart

I am Kookaburra Woman

Feathered Priestess

Lotus Dreamer

Guardian of the Mysteries

I emerge again,

arms out

heart open

wide winged

I am Daughter of Isis

my body filled with her golden jewels

I give

I receive

I am a Vessel of Light

A Channel of Love

that too holds the sorrows of night

I am She who heard the Call

I am She who sings the songs of death and birth

Koooo – Ka ka Ka!

Devoted

in service

to all who journey with this blessed earth
