Demeter is your main archetype. As mother of Persephone she represents ‘The Mother’ archetype. Demeter loves her role as life giver and nurturer,even with children who are not hers. This role is more important than career.Kind, patient and gentle,she is nevertheless a vulnerable Goddess, like her daughter Persephone. In the Greek myth, she represents the sorrowful mother who lost her child. LikePersephone she is mystical and intuitive, allowing her to empathise easily with the suffering of others. As a giver, you may neglect your needs in favour of looking after others: – this could lead to you feeling exhausted and worn out form running around after others. Remember it is important to set time aside each day for you and what you like to do. Rather than be assertive the mother is in danger of becoming passive aggressive to get her needs met. If this happens, over time there is a danger of becoming co-dependent and adopting amartyr complex. Always there needs to be a balance. In order to truly relate wellto others, you must first be kind to yourself.

Start by planning a date night at least once a week with your partner and bring the romance back into your relationship; – this may progress into planning a sexy weekend away. Within no time you’ll get your mojo back.
