CHEVAL

‘Mother’ is an archetype and refers to the place of origin, to nature … to  substance and matter, to materiality and the womb It also means the unconscious, our natural and instinctive life, the physiological realm, the body in which we dwell.

‘Horse’ is an archetype that is widely current in mythology and folklore. As an animal it represents the non-human psyche, the subhuman, animal side, the unconscious. As a beast of burden it is related to the ‘mother’ archetype

Cheval is my second primeval deity.  Nurturing and devoted, she can also be incredibly violent when it touches my own protection. She is my unconscious psyche, my memory of the world connected to the giant natural clocks.


In Hebrew, Horse (Cheval) means "the one who helps the man to grow up".
