Abstract

In this article we rite/write, as an act of shamanic enfleshment, into knowing-being a decolonizing and feminist political subjectivity that centres the divine feminine and feminist spirituality of the abuelas. We journey across the territories of Colombia and so-called Australia and with the archetypes of Bachué, la Mujer Salvaje, la Mujer Amante-Hechicera, and Baubo, ella quien habla por la entrepierna. We rite/write to bring to presence the role that the erotic, the cyclical, and enfleshed can bring to our politics so that it weaves a sacred erotic political sociality, other registers of kinship/homecoming and (political) subjectivity, and a politics (m)otherwise in which no one is left behind and the racialized and feminized body is returned to its rightful place in our visions and onto epistemological practices of healing liberations.
