to write a video by Atlantian Gardens Kaaba symbolizing the feminine aspect of God before patriarchy cover up history black cube is ancient feminist symbol everywhere black cube yeah I mean they say that the black cube represented some of them have said I mean they disagree amongst themselves some have said it was dual shara moosi shara who was Baal Shamin who was a masculine deity but then some have said a cube

0:35

symbolized OSA as well it symbolized her who was feminine who I think they also linked to Artemis and and some other female deities and things like that but yeah I mean the the feminist or feminine I don't know the feminist feminine symbol is still present in many things but I don't think that hmm I don't know if the cab the Kaaba is the Kaaba a feminine symbol or if is it hmm I don't

1:13

know I suppose Kappa is feminine in Arabic I suppose I can see that I can see that in some ways that being feminine in the sense that it's it's the word is feminine kappa how deal capital maraca for example the fact that it's clothed and the concept of clothing let's say covering up because the kiswa means a clothing that they put over it

1:47

casing of the black stone I mean I can't see that kind of if you in a symbolic term I can kind of see that who'd who I mean who is there that doesn't surrender to to the feminine to the power of the feminine ultimately ah it's where all strength just kind of like crumbles to its knees [Laughter] alright so circle

2:28

is feminine okay is it okay I don't realize circle yeah I suppose so with women's kind of circular their cycles and mm I can see but yeah I mean I I don't know whether in Islam it definitely I can see that femininity associated with the Kaaba but I don't know whether it's so strong strongly stands out it hasn't really generally to me but I can see that to be fair I have pondered historically over the concept of the kiswa why dress

3:06

the Kaaba I have actually thought and found that a bit strange at times but yeah [Music]
