The Knife You See the Ikenga Wield Is Already Naturally Wielded by Women

The knife held by the Ikenga motif is not a privilege of the masculine, it mirrors a weapon the feminine already wields within. Every woman carries an innate edge: the instinct to preserve her essence and defend the life she bears or may bear. This sacred sharpness is an innate manifestation of cosmic intelligence, the primal will of the womb to protect, renew, and sustain creation itself. When she guards her peace and vitality, she honors that hidden blade, the divine power that keeps the rhythm of life intact.
