How to Forgive Your Mother’s Betrayal: So You Can Truly Stand in Your Power

My mother died in 1995. As many do after someone dies, I put her up on a pedestal. It’s only now, fourteen years later, that I have begun to look at the affect the unhealed parts of our relationship have had on me and the unanswered questions they have left for me. Would we have resolved our issues had she lived? Would I have been able to stand forth in my own feminine power with her big personality hovering over me? Could I have forgiven my judgments of her? My mother loved me. This was never in question. She was controlling. I’m sure she thought it was for my own good.

They bring it over into their adult lives as a way of protecting themselves. However, while a person may have automatically been thrown into survival mode there are variables that will trigger their survival mode.

Calling Forth All Women

The next evolutionary shift for women is clear: we are being called to cultivate our own power. This is not the aggressive, dominating, competitive power of the masculine that has evolved our world up until now but the caring, creative, collaborative power of the feminine which is expressed through each and every one of us should we choose to acknowledge it. What does this look like? For women, it is about taking our places at the table, whether it is the kitchen table or the global decision-making table.
