Celebrate Mothers Day with Demeter the Greek Goddess of the Harvest
Demeter (also known as the goddess Roman Ceres) can be represented by symbols of her incredible generosity and many of our symbols represent HER bountiful harvest. Now is the time to accept and nurture wholeness through the challenges of feelings and emotions. Accept and acknowledge and release unexpressed emotions to be in your heart and what you truly are.
