MORE ABOUT THIS PAINTING
The Divine Mother has a primordial nature not as known related to the 'prima materia' of the void. Embodied as Mother night, she was revered long before the rise of patriarchal systems that exalted the Sun as the primary creator. This Ancient aspect of the Mother deals with protection and the origins of life — a universal matrix of living energy expressed through love. Her essence is the primal expression of universal meaning and nonduality, beginning with chaos—not as disorder, but as fertile ground of formless potential. Chaos is deeply associated to the feminine, yet it is today in distorted motion: it is not a governing force of confusion, but the infinite void from which all creation emerges.
When we are ignorant of the truth of the divine mother we experience a fear of the void; a fear of being alone, seeking distractions outside ourselves to avoid the emptiness that devours us. The void was the nature of the primal matter that existed before creation. This refers to the condition of unity and the unlimited potentiality that exists before differentiation , hence why this painting reflects a deeper state of nonduality where forgiveness takes place.
Black is not empty and chaos is not confusion as void is not nothingness. The Goddess of the Night symbolizes the ground of the dark feminine principle that is the creative source of all that exists.
This is the essential meaning of the dark, not the distorted element to be feared, but the sacred origin of all life.
