From the archetype of the Mother. From Jung grouped the most important aspects of the archetype of the Great Mother as typical following performances at personal level, those of mother, grandmother, the stepmother, the nanny, the nanny, the grandmother, the goddess, the Virgin Mary, of Sophia. It is the end of desire for deliverance. It is paradise, the kingdom of God, the Church, the piece of earth, sky, land, forest, sea and standing water, material, the underworld, the moon, the field, garden, rock, cave, tree, springing from the source, the baptismal font the flower, the mandala, the furnace, the hearth, cows, rabbits and domestic animals in general. Psycho1ogiquement it is a benevolent principle, pampering, giving support, which enables growth, which fertilizes and nourishes. This is the place of transformation, of rebirth, of secrecy, hidden from the dark world of the dead, which devours, poisons, anxiety, and the inevitable. All these representations derive from the archetype of the primordial Mother.
