I have had this Neter in my SoulCollage® deck for many, many years. I made it completely intuitively, and every time I draw it, it seems to be speaking to me of reassurance.

Who are you?

I am the one who is standing on the edge of the Universe. I am the one resting my hand on this ancient pillar of wisdom.

I am the one surrounded by symbols of Transformation and New Beginnings.

I am the one who is ready and open to explore what is next.

I am the one who knows that I am safe and protected.

I am the one who faces the mystery of the Universe, both inside and out.  I am the one who trusts that the Universe is a safe and friendly place.

I am the one who sees the Unknown as a kind, exciting place, a place of mutual trust.  I am the one who trusts that the next step will be safe, will not harm me in any way. 

I am the one who steps forward into mystery with intention and grace, who trusts the unfolding of the journey, who isn’t afraid to venture forth into unknown territory.

What do you have to give me?

I give you fearlessness. 

I give you freedom from worry and anxiety.

I give you new adventures. I give you faith and trust that all shall be well.

Here’s a good example of how it’s possible to have more than one SoulCollage® card for any given Neter (energy or being) in your life.

Divine Mother- Birthing

I made this first Divine Mother card a month or two into my SoulCollage^® journey.

Who are you? I am the one who first gave birth.  I am the one who holds all mothers in my arms and all children as well.  I am the one who sees and knows and is sure of her decisions.  I am the one who blesses your womb whether or not is has borne children.  I am the one who shelters and protects the children, ALL children.  I am the one who helps you to give birth to ideas, dreams, books,websites, relationships…. anything that is created from the seeds I plant within you.  I am the one who mothers your inner mother, who parents you and her with wisdom and tenderness and love.

What do you have to give me? I give you the power and will to give birth to your dreams.  I give you abundant, never-ending, unconditional love.

What do you want from me? I want you to know that giving birth doesn’t always mean giving physical birth to children.  It also means giving birth to that which is inside of you.  It also means opening yourself up wide and letting your authenticity out into the world. I want you to give birth to your dreams. I will help you to do this. And I want you to mother yourself and your Inner Family/Tribe with tenderness and compassion and faith.

Divine Mother- Unconditional Love

About a year after making the first Divine Mother card, I was sifting through images at one of my workshops, and discovered the central image in this card here. It called my name so loud and clear, that I had to smile (and I grabbed it, of course!).  Shortly after that, I created this card, and deeply curious, did the interpretation that you see below.

As I was writing, it became clear to me that this was another Divine Mother card.  At first I was a little dubious about having TWO Divine Mother cards, but then I realized…. WHY NOT???  This is a very powerful archetype for me on many levels, so why not have two cards to express two different aspects of her?

Who are you? I am the one who shields you, who protects you from danger and harm.  I am the one who loves you unconditionally and always, no matter what.  I am the one who knows you like no other ever has or ever will.  I am the one who protects you with nothing but my own two hands.  I am the one whose face is hidden but whose hands show all.  I am the one who is your shelter, your comfort, your lean-to.  I am the one who is always waiting for you to come to me.  I am the one who is blessing you with my hands and my heart.  I am the one who sees the seeds of beautiful flowers inside of you and who does everything in my power to bring them to blossom in your soul.  I am the one who knows you completely.  I am the one who makes self-acceptance possible.  Because I accept you exactly as you are, you are better able to do the same.

What do you have to give me? I give you unconditional love.  I give you flowers in your heart and soul.  I give you protection and strength, a place to come home to.  I give you nurturing and sustenance and shelter from life’s storms.  I give you acceptance and love, no matter what.

What do you want from me? I want you to come to me, often.  I want you to open to my love for you, to believe it, to accept it, to receive it fully.  My love makes the biggest difference in your life, but you have to receive it, you have to come to me to get it, you have to allow it in, you have to believe that you deserve it.
