Maiden is my dominant archetype, the one that I have always feel comfortable with. It took me a long time to realize that I was three women more and not just the dominant maiden.
Thanks to maiden I have achieved everything I proposed in my life.
It was my maiden that made me finishing all my studies. The one that made me an independent woman and took me to work in Patagonia and Antarctica; the lover of freedom, nature and hiking. The one that could travel alone without fears.
Maiden does not have fears, is confident. She knows she can, no matter what, she accomplishes her dreams and goals because she has the power, the strength and intellect to do it.
This is the archetype that I couldn´t enjoy for many years because of taking anticonception pills. I felt the happiest woman when I have taken the decision to stop taking them.
So it was that after many years I could meet the archetype of the mother during ovulation, feel radiant, brilliant during those days. It was a beautiful part of my cycle that I was missing. I was rediscovering myself and starting to love that woman that I had lost and suddenly she was appearing little time in each of my cycles.
It was the mother that helped me nourish and grow my projects. I had the power of the maiden to fulfil my goals but I didn’t have the heart of the mother to nourish them, give them time to prosper.
Thanks to the universe the energy of the mother is present every cycle and from now on every day in my life since I am mother of Ethan.
Miranda Gray is a Reiki master, artist, writer and healer from the United Kingdom. Currently (before the pandemic) she travels around the world providing workshops and initiations.
Through her books and trainings, she provides tools so that we can live in harmony with our cycle in this modern world that does not give us much room to the full expression of our feminine energies.
She was a graphic designer but as time went by, she began to perceive that at certain times in her cycle her drawings were perfect and at other times she found it difficult to focus on details. This is how she began to investigate female energy in folklore and mythology.
She created the first Womb Blessing in 2012. She sent an invitation to twenty friends from different parts of the world to receive it and that in turn they could invite more women who might be interested. The message traveled and spread, of those first twenty invitations at the end, around 6000 women from 80 countries participated. The result of the first Worldwide Womb Blessing® energy delivery was more successful than she thought, and many women began to connect with Miranda to learn how to give the Blessing to other women. Responding to this call, Miranda began to travel to different countries to give workshops and initiate women in techniques. Thus, the first Moon Mothers were born.
We are currently around 6000 Moon Mothers around the world, although the number is constantly growing as Miranda and her initiated teachers constantly travel facilitating workshops to initiate more women.
The energies and gifts of these archetypes are expressed in the four stages of a woman's life and in the four phases of the menstrual cycle. At the same time, they are related to the phases of the moon and the seasons of the earth. As women we are very connected to the energies of the Earth and the Moon.
