Yesterday was Mother’s Day, a tough day for many people with the mother wound.
In one of my recent readings, I was working with a woman in her 50’s who has struggled with the relationship with her mother.
Intuitive reading clearly showed her mother was never able to be a mother. Like many parents, she played the role she has never auditioned for.
She was not able to see, hear nor feel her daughter and her needs. Her mother wasn’t able to connect with her emotionally.
And that created a deep emotional neglect wound. Orphan like feeling. And although this woman was already in her 50’s and has gone through years of therapy, deep inside there was a totally natural longing – for the mother she has never had.
Deep inside there was a little girl craving for her mother’s love and nurture.
And no matter what her conscious mind knew and decided, for all those decades this woman was stuck in her inner child aspect hoping and waiting for her mum to give her that which she needed.
And she tried everything, asking and begging for what she needed, being a good girl and pleasing her mum, arguing with her mum, ignoring and avoiding her needs, ignoring and avoiding her mother….
Intuitive reading has helped her to feel, on the deepest level, that her mum’s inability to emotionally connect with her isn’t her fault and had in fact nothing to do with her.
She was able to see her mother’s unhealed wound and her burden, her ancestral baggage, as so many females in her lineage had children but were not emotionally ready for motherhood.
The reading has shown she was the first woman in her lineage who had the courage to turn things around.
She was the first one who was able to break the cycle of the emotional neglect, who was able to emotionally connect with her children and be that soft, loving and nurturing mother she has never had. And with that to bring peace to her female ancestors.
And to help healing her inner child she was told to surround herself with soft, kind, empathic, loving, caring, motherly women.
Although they can never replace her biological mother, these types of women can help her focus on receiving from the different sources instead of waiting to receive from the person she might never receive it from.
