7. Goddess Archetype: The Bone Mother Awaits You
Background info and prompt is in the classroom now.
The Bone Mother.
She is not for the faint of heart, or those who fear the Divine Feminine.
Her presence comes in like cold wind over old earth — ancient, unadorned truth.There is no softness here, and yet no malice. She is older than mercy… because she is the reason mercy exists.
She is not a goddess built on the earth —she is the earth’s oldest memory made flesh. Not soil, not stone, not forest… but the bones beneath all of it. The strata. The bedrock. The first layer laid down when the world cooled and sighed its first breath.
She is terrifying only in the way truth without cushioning can be terrifying.Not cruel.Not dark.Simply… fundamental.
She carries the vibration of things that existed before softness,before life learned to bloom,before the planet grew her green cloak and her blue arteries.
The Bone Mother belongs to the realm of:
  • Primordial guardianship
  • Endurance across epochs
  • Earth-memory older than myth
  • The spine of the world
Where other archetypes speak in metaphor, she speaks in geology.
Where others offer guidance, she offers reckoning.
Where others uplift, she reveals what endures after everything unnecessary has been stripped away.
But beneath her fierce presence is something extraordinarily tender...not warm, but reverent. Like a mountain bowing, like an ancient tree recognizing a seed.
Here is what she whispers to me — slowly, like stone remembering it was once a mountain:
Message of The Bone Mother
“Child of breath and marrow,
do not fear what is old within you.
"I am the keeper of endings that protect beginnings.
I am the one who strips illusion from the soul,
not to wound you — but to free you from what cannot follow you forward.
Your bones remember truths your mind has forgotten.
Sit with them.
Listen.
The scaffolding of your becoming is ancient.
I am not death.
I am what remains when all pretenses die.
What you call aging, I call unveiling.
What you call decay, I call release.
What you call loss, I call truth returning home.
"Come to me when you can no longer carry the weight of pretending.I will show you how strong your spirit is when all masks fall away.”
I was blown away. Yes, She is the archetype of radical truth, necessary endings, and the unbreakable core of the human soul. She speaks to the parts of us — of all women — who have lived many lifetimes in one, who have shed skins not by choice, who have learned to rise not by brightness alone but by endurance, grit, and inner fire.
She is not frightening. She is formidable. And she respects only one thing: Authenticity.
Well... let's see how many of you journey into her presence.
