Phra Mae Thorani~ Sacred Geometry of Light 🔆 Conception

So many synchronicities!   I wanted to work with an Earth Goddess because I wanted to work with the pelvic floor. 

I discovered Phra Mae Thorani—Earth Goddess, greatly loved and revered in Buddhist temples and outside of them all over Burma, Cambodia, Thailand and Laos.  She is massively popular!!

I was intrigued by the fact that Womb Power class falls on, July 7th, 7-7, so I looked up the number 7. 

It turns out that Pythagoras believed Seven to be a highly spiritual number.  It’s shepherd’s crook shape symbolically represents the flow of the kundalini from the bottom of the spine to the third eye in the centre of the forehead between the eyes— gateway to the innerworlds.

Well isn’t it coincidental that Phra Mae Thorani is portrayed wringing ‘the cool waters of detachment’ out of her hair that is shaped very much like a shepherd’s crook! 

How does Phra Mae Thorani save the Buddha who is in on the brink of enlightenment?

The Bodhisattva was sitting in meditation on his throne under the Bodhi Tree. Mara, the Evil One, was jealous and wanted to stop him from reaching enlightenment. Accompanied by his warriors, wild animals and his daughters, he tried to [tempt and] drive the Bodhisattva from his throne.

All the gods were terrified and ran away, leaving the Bodhisattva alone to face Mara’s challenge. The Bodhisattva stretched down his right hand and touched the earth, summoning her [to come to his assistance in obtaining enlightenment by witnessing his past good deeds.]

The earth deity in the form of a beautiful woman rose up from underneath the throne, and affirmed the Bodhisattva’s right to occupy the vajrisana. She twisted her long hair, and torrents of water collected there from the [Buddha’s countless] libations over the ages created a flood. The flood washed away Mara and his army, and the Bodhisattva was freed to reach enlightenment. [source]”

I like the way she channeled the Buddha’s good deeds in the form of all the libations he had performed to drown out his enemies.  Now that’s team work!  And you could also say she channeled the kundalini from the earth up her spine and out her crown, through her hair! 

She is also usually portrayed dancing and swaying her hips horizontally, creating a balance with the vertical ascension of the kundalini.  Her hair and water flowing bring feminine downward energy balancing the upward masculine energy.

In temple murals, Phra Mae Thorani is often depicted with the Buddha in the mudra known as calling the earth to witness, where he points his right hand downward— honoring the feminine earth energy. The waters flowing downward from her long hair wash away the armies of Mara and symbolize the water of the bodhisattva’s perfection of generosity (dāna paramī) and I would say the power of the feminine energy.

Phrae Mae Thorani’s intervention to defeat the forces of Mara is a massviely popular topic for murals and statues in temples. She is also called upon for help by people in all sorts of situations such as by farmers to provide fertile soils and rain for crops.

Even young men desperately seeking a bride invoke Phra Mae Thorani’s magic by scooping up some earth with the big toe of their right foot and with the right hand rubbing it into the top of their head! Reflecting the polarity of as below, so above!

Fractal Anatomy

We will explore fractal anatomy as Meredith Sands Keator has coined the term, finding patterns that repeat in the body eg. the mirror relationship  between the pelvic floor and the diaphragm–

Did you know that the pelvic floor has 26 muscles?!!!

The Pelvic floor needs all of these muscles to:

*Stabilize your spine and hips
*Contribute to sexual pleasure
*Hold organs up and in place
*Act as a pump to circulate blood and lymph fluids
*Control your bowels and bladder

The Pelvic Floor is a humble, very often overlooked part of our body... So it behooves us to get better acquainted!  We have parts of our pelvic floor that are too tight and parts that are too loose which can cause a bunch of unhappy symptoms like:

– painful sex
– leaky bladder
– prolapsed womb
– difficulty orgasming

During our deep dive:

we will use breath to explore the relationship between the diaphragm and the pelvic floor and drop into a deep state of relaxation, bringing resilience to both the diaphragm and pelvic floor.

We’ll also use movement and create flexibility, agility and strength in the pelvic floor.

I had first hand experience with painful sex and difficulty orgasming and through working with my pelvic floor and yoni, I have overcome these issues! 

‘As above so below.’

Inspired by Phra Mae Thorani, we will also explore the kundalini flow between the mirrored energy centers of the root, also known as the feminine throne and the brain, the masculine crown.

And we’ll work with moving the horizontal energies through the womb and undulating which balances ascending and descending energies.

Light Conception

When we are able to feel the union of these complementary energies within our bodies, we are cultivating Light Conception! What is Light Conception? This is the way Mary conceived Jesus as did all the Virgin Divine Birth Priestesses. Today we can use this same inner technology for ourselves to create ourselves anew as well as new ideas and new paradigms!

We will be diving deeper into Light Conception the rest of this month!
