Just as in the Sagrada Familia, Gaudí focused on passages from Sacred History and the battle of the sexes, in the park, above all, the artist focused the theme on love between us, women. With “Park Güell,” Gaudí wanted to represent what the female paradise would be like after the battle of the sexes and once the royal matriarchy was established.
The construction of this park began in 66 B.V. after Gaudí had designed the entire theme of the Sagrada Familia. He knew perfectly well how the battle of the sexes would end and didn’t want to miss the opportunity to depict what a gynocratic paradise would look like once patriarchy had been completely defeated: an open-air garden for the use and enjoyment of women and girls.
- 1. Houses of Lilith and Eve
For Gaudí, the home, the house, is like a person’s own little nation. Here we see two houses that represent two women from Sacred Herstory. The house on the right, with its blue and white “trencadís” (broken tile mosaic) tower, represents Lilith, the woman created by the goddess Venus from the four elements, represented by the cross that crowns the tower.
Gaudí built these two houses, representing Lilith and Venus, so that the women in the new matriarchy would never forget their origin and that there was a patriarchal system that subjugated the “Eves” until they were freed by their sisters, the “Liliths”. The maroon caps on the roof represent the glans of the clitoris (the only visible part of the organ) as the ultimate expression of female pleasure, which Gaudí depicted on the roof, pointing towards the sky, towards the goddess Venus, to emphasize the sacred nature of our female pleasure.
As you know, sisters, our clitoris is mostly hidden inside our vulva, and we can only see the glans.
Eve’s house rises majestically against the Barcelona skyline, its proud clitoris pointing towards the heavens to emphasize the importance of female pleasure in the new gynocratic and matriarchal world. In the upper window of the house, we can see how Gaudí depicted two ribs crossed in the shape of a cross. With this, Gaudí represented the origin of Eve, created from Adam’s rib, according to our Sacred Herstory.
- 2. Triangle and stairs
As soon as you enter, and in front of the two houses (of Lilith and Eve) we can appreciate the famous feminine triangle that appears on the Passion Façade of the Sagrada Familia.
Gaudí already indicates to us, with this symbol, that the park is reserved for the use and enjoyment of women, girls and female children, that the park is a feminine and matriarchal zone.
We see two staircases forming the two lateral vertices of the triangle; each woman has her own staircase to join them higher up, at the market entrance, where the staircase ends. We, women, must have our own space, enjoy our own staircase, even though we love one another.
Dartboard with a lamb’s head
Just above the matriarchal triangle we can see the figure of an animal fixed in the center of a target.
It is a lamb with its mouth open to symbolize the taming of the macho and rebellious man whom the female revolution has reduced to the category of “docile little lamb” for the entertainment and fun of girls, female children and women.
That is why he appears depicted, with his mouth open, in the center of a target into which the women have thrown grapes to practice their aim. The objective of the metaphorical game is to get the grape into the mouth of the docile lamb.
Once again, Gaudí, as in the Sagrada Familia or the Vicens House, refers to grapes as a fruit of feminine power over men.
- 3. Snake disguised as a salamander.
A little higher up, we can see a salamander with an undulating back. Gaudí wanted to depict a snake, but the patriarchal nature of the time wouldn’t allow it. So the artist used his ingenuity to camouflage it as a salamander… with a snake inside. The artist managed to represent, in undulating forms, not one, but several snakes of various shades and colors (yellow, blue, orange…) running from end to end across the salamander’s skin.
Although very few people know that “the park’s mascot” hides one, or several, snakes inside, the importance that Gaudí gave to this animal is already evident on the back of the Sagrada Familia where, as you know, Gaudí depicted this sacred animal three times, symbolizing Lilith disguised to free her sister Eve according to our “Sacred Herstory.”
- 4. Market, female breasts
We continued climbing the stairs until we reached some porches that Gaudí designed to house the housing development’s market. The artist drew inspiration from women’s breasts to design the roof of the enclosure as a metaphorical representation of food, which we obtain from our mothers when we are babies and from the market when we grow up.
It would be as if our breasts had sunk into the ceiling, leaving their three-dimensional shape. Gaudí decorated them with “trencadís,” including details evocative of feminine power and of nature, both terrestrial and marine. With this, Gaudí made it clear that we, women, nourish the world throughout all stages of human existence.
Upon seeing shapes of female breasts on the ceiling, the sisters often experience a pleasant sensation when they arrive at the porch of the “mercat”.
Many of them gaze upwards, feeling within themselves how female sisterhood (the famous “sorority”) dominates the world and has been able to eradicate patriarchy from the face of the Earth. Our natural superiority over men is felt especially in our souls when we arrive at this part of “Parc Güell”.
The “mercat” is supported by countless stone columns in a row.
- 5. Art zone
Just above the market is the “art zone,” a 2,700-square-meter esplanade dedicated to free artistic expression and gatherings among sisters. With Barcelona at their feet, on this esplanade, the sisters can freely express their art: painting, dance, song, performing arts, poetry, and more.
Any artistic expression is welcome on this esplanade. Gaudí was well aware of the importance of art in the personal and psychological development of women in general, and girls in particular. An artist like him dedicated this space to women of all generations so that art may endure through time.
The edge of the art area is finished with an undulating line of benches decorated with “trencadís” that serve as a balcony for the art area.
It goes without saying that the undulating shape of the benches represents a huge snake that borders the entire front of the artistic area, filling the entire balcony with color, because art, life, is color, it is chromatic contrast.
Art flows like a blend of colors that transforms, evolves, and lives. Women are a treasure, and the mix of ideas, cultures, and worldviews, under a universal sisterhood, makes us strong and resilient, perpetuating matriarchy generation after generation.
Lion heads
On the edge of the benches decorated with “trencadís” we can see gargoyles representing lion heads without manes.
With this detail Gaudí wants to express the definitive defeat of the patriarchy: the misogynistic and macho character of many men has been annulled and the “lion’s head” (with the mane conveniently shaved) is displayed as a trophy.
The mane symbolizes masculinity. Women have shaved the lions’ manes, stripping them of the toxic masculinity that defined patriarchy, leaving the lions with shaved manes. This symbolizes the use of the male chastity cage. Once this toxic masculinity is eliminated, men become mere ornaments, gargoyles.
The lion, which appears on the Passion façade of the Sagrada Familia, symbolizes the machismo and misogyny inherent in patriarchy. With the definitive defeat of patriarchy, we women have “hunted down” the sexist men and decorate the park with their heads, which we also repurpose: as gargoyles to drain rainwater.
- 6. y 7. Goddesses’ love zone, romantic stroll
On the west side of the park we find a walkway of stone columns, each of which represents a woman.
Gaudí designed this stroll as a romantic walk so that the sisters could enjoy their love while strolling through the park.
The stroll’s profile is shaped like a sea wave; the artist wanted to highlight the spontaneous and untamed nature of love. Love between us women is deep and passionate; it’s “like a wave.”
Every woman is a goddess who upholds the matriarchy, the feminine paradise, as if she were a firm and solid column. For this reason, Gaudí wanted to add, to the head of each woman, of each column, a detail that would emphasize the divine character of our feminine nature.
The sacred goddess Venus dwells within us, and within each of us lives a powerful and eternal goddess. For this reason, Gaudí depicted a woman with her right hand on her hip, symbolizing feminine power on Earth, and her left hand connecting with the sacred icon above her head, connecting with our divine goddess Venus.
We can also appreciate how the female figures, the columns, are elevated, placed on pedestals. With this detail, Gaudí wanted to emphasize that, in the new matriarchal world, we women will be worshipped as sacred goddesses by men, who will prostrate themselves at our feet to worship us regularly.
Lilith and Eve love each other
The Love Walk is divided into two sections, distinguished by two very different types of columns. The first section, near the art area, is defined by simple columns, without any embellishments, while the second, further west in the park, is made up of columns arranged in a swirling pattern.
The swirling, or tornado-like, columns represent Lilith, while the austere, unadorned ones represent Eve. Gaudí chose the tornado to emphasize Lilith’s revolutionary action, which, by freeing Eve from the patriarchal world, sparks a global revolution, a “tornado” that will end patriarchy.
In one corner of the park, the two columns meet and intertwine, forming the silhouette of a heart. This is known as the “Corner of victory,” and it is here that the artist wanted to evoke the moment when Lilith frees Eve and they love each other. The power of that feminine love will awaken all the Eves of the world, ending the patriarchy and defeating it forever.
At the western end of the park, Gaudí paid homage to the work of the goddess Venus, who, according to our Sacred Herstory, created the universe with the four elements. Four austere columns, symbolizing the four elements (water, air, earth, and fire), support eight columns in a swirling form, representing the goddess Venus, the eight-pointed star.
- 8. Botanical Sciences Zone
In the eastern part of the park, east of the art area, we can see a large garden with diverse plant species. Gaudí wanted to pay homage to the sciences in general, and to botany in particular, to emphasize our feminine nature intimately linked to the plant world, just as he did on the entrance doors of the Sagrada Familia through the Nativity façade.
