 In working with the mother, the mother archetype, it's very important to remember that the feminine is a force of nature, an energy that can either give life or take it away. Children attempting to function in an atmosphere that cannot sustain life suffer bodily and psychically. They fear life itself. The compensating dream will be of a loving mother. Now other children, blessed with parents who are able to give them the honey of life, may have strong positive feminine images compensating for the loss in the culture. The one is an individual loss, the other a cultural loss. The full moon is one of those radiant images that can bring the dreamer into himself, then take him off the ground into a universal world of stars and spheres and he can become lost in the harmony of that space. It is very important with such dreams that you recognize the compensation essential to stay on the ground and not be lost in the harmony of the spheres.
