MATR: THE WOUND OF THE MOTHER
Matr --> Mater --> Matter --> Mother
"Matr" is the etymological and epigenetic taproot for the word, "matter"...and........."Mother".
We see this ancient Latin word-root, "Matr" in words like these:
MATR-ix
MATR-imony
MATR-iarch
MATR-iculate
MATER-ial
Matter and material/s are the very "mothers" of which our entire world is built. Our matter (in form) is literally built by Mother. When we MATR-iculate, we are agreeing to our knowledge being built by Mother.
When we enter MATR-imony, we are allowing ourselves to be relationally swaddled, as we once were, energetically contained when thrashing about as newborns.
A MATR-ix is the interconnected mother or womb consciousness in which things arise, and are created.
In The MATR-ix (film), machines of consciousness, or MOTHERS, created the simulated world we know as reality.
Our entire terrestrial reality is intrinsically encoded in MOTHER....not just Gaian wisdom....but at the level of our very "stuffness"....our MATTER.
*THE MOTHER WOUND IS ENCODED IN OUR MATTER*
The Mother wound is the core blueprinted wound of the Feminine. It is an existential, epigenetic, ancestrally-bestowed, karmic, cosmic wound. It is a discordant, life-denying writhing existential crisis of not knowing AT THE LEVEL OF OUR VERY "STUFFNESS", our matter, the
matr-ix of womb, that WE MATTER. It may be discreet. subtle, quietly tucked away within womb and marrow....
but at its most far-away, even an echo contains that which created it.
It is quite literally, that our MATTER has been energetically injured. And so, a life is built from MATTER of not WHOLLY MATTER-ING ....and we live in this distortion for all our days, our very MATTER denying its own essence.
This is so very real: this is life turning upon life.
This is the very heart of the wound that is passed down from mother, to mother, to mother.....the dissonant shadow of not-mattering encoded in womb (ie: MATR-ix) from one mother, to the next, to the next…
I know not ONE WOMAN EVER who has not had to confront this wound. There are women who pretend or dismiss that this is not their work (I know this because this was me...) , but facing this part of self....the encoded "mattering" wound of the Matr-Matter-Mother is the only way to alchemize true Feminine power.
Because this wound is intrinsically PART OF YOU, it MUST BE MET.
There are periods of time when this archetypal wound is intensely activated within the feminine Collective in order that it may be FELT....purged, and transmuted.
When we are held in the distortion of the Mother Wound....our knowing mind pleading with us to re-member that We/I MATTER, and yet far too often, when this wound is in its active expression, we collapse into a Medusa-spell... frozen, deadened, somehow far away from life.
It is the MOTHER who is the SACRED DELIVERER OF THIS WOUND.
It is the most foundational primordial reckoning...the deepest and darkest of the Feminine descent...it is the only way to know Feminine consciousness and POWER in its fullness.
And....
YOU MUST GO DOWN.
You must face the part of your Self that has been made frozen and deadened.
There are medicine carriers.....feminine alchemists.... amongst us who weave a basket of gold to hold this aspect of Feminine consciousness. They have arrived at a place of potent, gentle sanctity after enduring the forging of the archaic crucible of their own Matr/Mother wound.
Phoenix Waters Waters] is one such *soaringly gorgeous* alchemist of this wound.
I will not say more other than to name that this work is (an aspect of) her Destiny -- (and it is *always* the destined Wounded Healers that are able to constellate the most potent reclamation for those they serve.)
Her offering / portal called ALCHEMY: An 11-week course on Transforming Patterns Into Power is a sacred sanctuary to gently touch into this archaic wound so that it can be quite literally, alchemized. Registration remains open through thus Wednesday the 13th.
The cosmic injury of the Mother Wound carries within it the false language of the wound -- this place of somehow not knowing at a cellular level of our Matter, our MATR-ix, how deeply, sweetly, wildly it is that YOU MATTER, subtly and triumphantly. Your desires and deepest, most-squished-deep-inside longing matter.
It is time to set this free, Dear One.
From Phoenix:
"Through the Womb of Winter we will begin to dive deep in the excavation of our relationship to POWER.
In the unravelling of THE MOTHER WOUND, we uncover ways to reclaim the essence within us that has previously felt muted. We.....embrace our desire as sacred."
❤ AN IMPORTANT NOTE OF CLARIFICATION ❤
This wound is blueprinted.
It is encoded in all women to both bear the wound of the mother AND BE the sacred deliverer of the Mother Wound. It is so that we -- ALL OF US, man and woman -- can individuate into the highest purpose of our Soul. There is no shame nor blame in bearing the mark of this wound NOR BEING ITS SACRED DELIVERER.
Once made conscious, as with all soul-wounding, it has a divine, archetypal, grace-filled purpose.
