David Richo in his book Mary Within: “Humor is a direct path to intuition. When we do not take things so seriously, we are more likely to access cosmic wisdom.” 

In the beginning was the Goddess EVOL. She was void, formless, and full of chaos. All of her ideas were in potential in a great black abyss. There were images of bears and turtles and bees, fish and flowers and trees, but she was just too busy to birth them. The Goddess yearned to express herself, but she kept putting it off.

One night, the Goddess EVOL received a wake-up call in the form of a dream. In her dream, a rooster was crowing: “cock-a-doodle-doo, wake-up, it’s now or never, go for it, girl!” This dream was so ripe with creative energy that it shook EVOL to her roots. It was then that she began her rainbow dance.

On the first day, the Goddess EVOL danced forth a bright red, like the color of the rooster in her dream. From her very being, EVOL flooded the redness deep into the core of Earth, and this “Earth Light” illuminated all the images in the Goddess’s womb.

On the second day, EVOL began to sort out the images. She created the moon and the sun, plants and planets, oceans and animals. As she did so, the elemental creatures that lived in the secret places in Earth began to stir, and they filled Earth with a vibrant orange.

On the third day, EVOL told the yellow sun that his fire was needed to bring forth consciousness. “Okay, Sun,” she said, “you have my permission to participate in creation. Let’s see what your fire can do.” The first thing the sun did was to push aside the moon, for he wanted to dominate her soft lunar light. He then brought forth humans, cell phones and computers, trucks and tall buildings—and he began to favor the male over the female.

On the fourth day, EVOL sensed that there was trouble brewing, so she decided to reverse the letters in her name. The Goddess EVOLved into the Goddess LOVE and opened up the human heart. She told humans of her love for all creation, and she asked the sun if he would be her partner in this green fertile dance.

On the fifth day, the sun became angry because he didn’t want to give up his power, so the Goddess decided to disguise herself and take on the form of the moon. She then asked the sun to have a dialogue with her about yin/yang energies. At first the sun didn’t want to cooperate, but when the moon released the power of LOVE, a deep healing blue entered the space between them and the sun agreed to co-create with the Goddess.

On the sixth day, the Goddess and the sun held a brainstorming session and came up with a vision. They would extend themselves in order to birth a new expression of peace and balance on Earth. And so it was. The Goddess looked over her new creation with her wise indigo eyes, and she saw that it was very good.

On the seventh day, the Goddess spun lavender strands from the crown of her head and connected the stars in the Milky Way to every part of Earth down to its central core. As a web of white light surrounded Earth and all the cosmos, the Goddess knew her rainbow dance was done. And then she rested.
