Somatic Journeying - In the garden of the Mother

Episode 3 - The Empress

...She waits in the garden, smelling the roses and watching the seasons turn. She glides one hand lovingly along the curve of her growing belly as she walks slowly up and down the rows of tufted corn and between fruit trees, all of them getting heavier by the day. She smiles quietly to herself, remembering how all of this used to be nothing more than cold soil and the sound of water. She remembers those pale dawns of early spring and the way the morning frost sparkled over the naked ground - the breathless thrill of every sprout as it emerged out from under the darkness. A sharp flutter in her belly brings her back from her reverie, and she presses her hand softly back against the little life inside her.

“Yes, my love,” she murmurs. “But we must be patient. How beautiful and delicious it’s all becoming...”

What seeds are you planting in your garden? What stories are you nurturing?

And what would your mother say?

Welcome back to Somatic Journeying©, a practice combining gentle movements, breathwork, and your imagination in order to cultivate expanded physical vitality, empowered personal narratives, and integrated Self-awareness. In Episode 3, you are invited to visit the garden of the Mother archetype. She has many names, but her function never changes - she is always holding space for love, beauty, and hope to germinate.
