The Death Mother Archetype, which was first coined by Marion Woodman, can be confronting and debilitating. But when we move closer to this Archetype we dispel the idealised and idolised way that our culture, ancestors and familial landscape continue to feed and shape us from this Archetype. We can begin to bring healing, alchemy, self-compassion and acceptance to the human-ness of being a mother and woman.
