I-B: The Goddess Knife's Animus Projection as a Penile Substitute

The Goddess Knife’s Animus

Projection as a Penile Substitute

Richard L. Matteoli

Blood sacrifice and dismemberment belong to the fertility ritual of

the Great Mother. Erich Neumann.[1]

(Monterey, Calif.) – Sexually dysfunctional male killers sometimes attack the

vagina with a knife. The clitoris is insufficient for penetration. Genital blood rituals are

socialized feminine molestations with a foreign object. Her foreign object is expressed

with knives through myth-working of the terrible Great Goddess’s Devouring Mother

aspect. The motif uses agricultural with animal symbolism for fertilization based in

Nature, not from the male shamanic hunter sphere philosophy in theology.[2]

The nine Greek Muses all daughters of Zeus are

beautiful Maidens whose arts include arts, drama, literature,

music and philosophy. They represent the sources of

inspirational life, especially for poets, through the feminine

anima.[3] Their opposites in some aspects are the Furies.

Melpomene means to celebrate dance and song and

originally associated thusly. Later as an example

Transformation of Myth through Time[4] she also became

associated with Tragedy sometimes wearing a tragic mask,

black coat and boots worn by tragic actors. She carries a

knife. Thus Melpomene bridges the Muse to the Fury.

Knives can be weapons of the Devouring Mother, Light or Dark, that when used

signify change in social structures, moral behavior to physical appearance through ritual.

Inuit: Ululijarnaq – Disemboweling Goddess

Originally she lived in the place of the afterlife and roamed the earth before

humans had anuses (medically Imperforate anus). Using the ulu knife she would scrape

out their wastes from the bowels. To aid her, the moon god used his hunting knife giving

all animals anuses. In some traditions the moon god also gave women vaginas with the

hunting knife so that no more children would be birthed from the earth by the goddess

Nunam, Mother Earth. In this vaginal creation women re-experience the hunter’s knife

wound monthly through menses. Now these children were not plucked as flowers but

able to climb up passing ladies legs to root vaginally where they are born to this day.

No longer needed to scrape waste and birth the young she became the guardian to

the afterlife similar to and presumably Kamaut (male moon-aspect, Kamaun). In this

respect she meets shamans in their serious out of body travels trying to make them laugh.

If the shaman laughs he fails but if he remains stone-face serious he is allowed to pass.

This is entirely a two element feminine movement. First, is woman taking care of

humanity’s biological needs and women’s procreation in Nature. Second, is that moon-

gods are animus projections of the feminine being that the female’s animus is the male

aspect within her. Thus, the moon-god’s hunter’s knife belongs to the feminine also.

Women’s monthly menses ties to the moon.[5] Male anima acquiesces to her.[6]

Mesoamerica: Obsidian Knife Women and Penis Perforator

Obsidian is a mineral similar to flint used in the Middle East to which goddess

relationships attach. Obsidian blades are as sharp, if not sharper and longer lasting, than

metals used for scalpels. Obsidian Knife Women make up a large pantheon in the

Americas. Some were lesser deities called the Tzitzimeme symbolizing feminine

concerns. They are similar to Middle Eastern Ugaritic female demons, Lilith being one.

Itzpapalotl was the Aztec queen among the Tzitzimime. She was known as

Obsidian Butterfly. Like many goddesses great to lesser she was associated with the

moon, agriculture and patroness of warriors. And she was a goddess of the hunt.[7]

Xochiquetzal means Precious Tail Feather, patroness of pregnancy and childbirth.

The Tzitzimime attached to her as a Greater Goddess. Her son was Quetzalcoatl, the

feathered serpent, from her animus projection as if from the Collective Unconscious.[8]

Mythically he is her sexual will and demand.[9] Socially real man is her servant.[10]

Coatlicue was The Goddess of the Serpent Skirt. Her snake belt was the center of

the world.[11] She was referred to as ‘The Mother of the Gods’ and gave birth to the

moon, stars and god of the sun. She birthed the infant universe and as European wolf-

mothers she bites her cub’s ears to contain them. Birthing and snake symbols are the

Wild Woman’s power of Nature’s Life/Death/Life cycle.[12] In this, her snake belt is

set to represent a womb symbol,[13] hanging in front as Clitoral Enhancement.[14]

Penis Perforator

The Aztecs, Maya and Olmecs were heavily into human blood sacrifices as

beheading and removal of hearts from live victims. They also performed self-sacrifices

as drawing blood from their ears, tongues and penises.[16] Only women drew penile

blood. The queen and the king’s wife were the only women allowed to bleed the king

which matrilineal Lady Xoc was well documented.[17] The blood was let into a womb

symbol bowl to be poured on the earth to ensure fertility of the Mother Earth goddess

giving healthy crops and good harvest. Penis perforator handles were highly decorated

including feathers. The cutting portion of the instrument was most often the sting ray

barb. In art cascading water and maze kernels symbolized semen blood.[18]

Native American cultures were and are highly matriarchal compared to European

and Middle Eastern cultures and why women do not share this menstrual blood power

with men by passing to men her power in the form of authority to act in penis perforation.

Hindi: Kali and Sisterhood Yoni Pantheon

The Collective Unconscious of

archetype symbolism as knives, snakes,

animals and stellar objects associating

goddess death myth-working is very

misunderstood. The problem is getting

caught up in identification to the archetype

and using rituals of genital attack.[20]

The non-mutilating Yoni of Kali, the

Yoni being the sacred feminine genitals,

devouring Shiva’s lignum, penis, represents

sexual union.[21] This unity is Jungian

duality. He gives energy to support life and

she brings forth life and so too has dominion

of death. Contemporary art appears to be

brings such symbolism and myth more

directly.

Kali’s triune aspect is represented by colors: White = Virgin Maiden; Blue =

Mother; Black = Crone where the Life/Death/Life cycle Devouring Mother resides. This

inseparable and each triune aspect, depending on myth-working may represent devouring.

Mesopotamia: Ishtar to Anahita

The annual Sacrifice of The King was a ritual to fertilize Ishtar the Great Mother

Earth Goddess so there would be a good harvest. Easter comes from Ishtar. The

Babylonian queen was considered the goddess Ishtar incarnate. In spring the king was

sacrificed and a new man would take his place and have the honor. To prove himself and

become the king for the coming year he had to have public sex with the queen.[23]

Over time with the rise of males religiously, a substitute was chosen to take the

place of the king on the day of sacrifice. This is tannist sacrifice. On the day of

execution the real king would dress as a woman and stay in the palace. Herakles as

Omphale’s slave, and the times Omphale made him dress as a woman, relates to

Babylonian customs and times.[24]

The Star of Ishtar is 8 sided. From Babylon to Greece the number 8 is for male

sacrifice and used mythically. Herakles’s mother’s 8 brothers died in battle before Zeus

seduced her impregnating his son Herakles. And the Israelites circumcise on the 8th

day

by incorporation through Comixio Religionis: Mixing of religions.[25]

Anahita was a lesser goddess, yet greater than the Ugarte which Lilith was one.

Anahita was a virgin goddess of war and gave birth to Mithra, whose star was Saturn,

thus Ishtar’s 8 sided star. As a moon-god he represents feminine animus and servant of

her wants, needs, desires, whims. She-who-must-be-obeyed.[26] He is the star Repham

of Hathor’s Golden Calf ceremony.[27] Middle East ritual knives had flint blades.

Labyris: Double Ax – Battle Ax and Sagaris

Like the Americas, European and Middle Eastern deification of the female

genitals is transferred to the Labyris. The Labyris is used as a totemic representation of

the female genital labia: Vulvar Enhancement. This concept applies movement into the

dark recesses of the female’s vagina, the labyrinth. As in prior cave rituals, at the end is a

chamber in womb symbolism, where the ritual death occurs. Circumcision’s mock

death[28] occurs in Axis Mundi wombs: homes, hospitals and religious space.[29]

The Butterfly goddess labyris totem is also present in both the Americas and the

Old World. The Butterfly Goddess’s apogee appears to have been linked to the Minoans.

Minoans shared the Taurobolium ritual sacrifice of the Bull from India to Egypt and

portions of Africa. Butterfly life cycle from egg, larvae, chrysalis and emergence into

adult[30] signifying the Life/Death/Death cycle whose power rests in the Crone.[31]

The labyris and butterfly symbolize entrance to the womb in rebirth myths and

placed in front of goddess sacred spaces. Only women were allowed to carry the labyris

and use it ritually, used by both in agriculture and war. Its highest form is set between

cow horns which connects to the Minotaur, Cretan Bull and the over Taurobolium which,

as the Golden Calf, involves male child sacrifice. Heracles presented the queen of the

Amazon’s, Hippolyte, Labyris to Omphale after he completed his 12 Major Labors and

sent to be Omphale’s slave. Some connect the labyris to Thor’s Hammer, but Thor’s

Hammer is not a Labyris, squared, blunt and different mythic use and a father’s gift.

Sagaris

It must be noted that the labyris is NOT a creation solely of and for its aspects tied

to feminine theology, regardless of its beauty and abusive natures. Humans have been

making tools for eons. They are used for survival and aiding humanity to progress

culture and civilization. Main uses are the hunt, armed conflict and later the horticultural

feminine sphere of agriculture. Theological totemic use is secondary. The labyris’s

origin is the Sagaris, basically just another extended term for the age old basic ax.

Middle East: Knife of Isis – Flint Knife

Flint knives figured heavily in Egyptian myth being associated with many

goddesses and gods. They predominate in fertility Life/Death/Rebirth scenarios of their

Great Mothers. Not the myth, but what’s done through the myth, is troublesome.

Egyptian myth is an excellent example of

transformations of myth throughout Mesopotamia, Middle

East and Mediterranean.[4,25] An example is an

underlying goddess commonly associated with all yet

rarely spoken of, the Bee Goddess and her association to

sacrifice and the 8 sided Star of Ishtar/Mithros.

Minoans called her The Pure Mother Bee and

priestesses Melissa, also the Honey Goddess. The Greek

Delphic priestess was the Delphic Bee and associated with

Demeter and Artemis. Hindu love god’s bowstring was

made of bees. In Jewish totem names Deborah means Bee

where her myth-working was defeating the bee goddess.

Exodus 4:24-26a (Moses Returns to Egypt, NIV) At a lodging place on the way, the Lord

met Moses and was about to kill him. But Zipporah took a flint knife, cut off her son’s

foreskin and touched Moses’ feet with it. “Surely you are a bridegroom of blood to me.”

She said. So the Lord let him alone.

Bastet

Bastet originated as lion faced and eventuated to be symbolized as the domestic

cat. Cats were important to Egyptians. Killing a cat was frowned upon and in some

places against the law because they ate the rodents that would infest grain storage

facilities. Bastet, also known as Bast, was a moon-goddess of the east representing new

birth as both the sun and the moon are rebirthed from the east.[32]

Taweret was the goddess protector of pregnant women and children. She is

symbolized as a pregnant hippopotamus, pendulous human breasts, feline legs and a

crocodile on her back. Both the hippopotamus and crocodile represent the biblical

feminine Leviathan, that serpentine dragon Beast from the Seas of feminine social

waters.[34]

Heket was the frog headed goddess whose creations emerged out of the Nile that

had turned red from sacrificial blood to the goddess when Moses confronted Pharaoh.

Horus – Knife of Isis and Hathor (Bastet/Sekhmet)

Horus, the moon-god son of both Isis, whose plant was the Blood Oak, and

Hathor when transformed into a bodily animal form had a flint knife paw. He was the

Midianite god, as son of Hathor coming to kill Moses for not circumcising his son.

This feminine animus knife myth signifies Passive Initiation through Transference

of Aggression in criminal behavior. Torture becomes a substitute for the sex act in Major

Sadism.[35] Horus and others like Mithros are representations of the biblical masculine

Behemoth who roams the surface of the earth.[36] This Behemoth is Satan as

represented when first mentioned in the Jewish Testament’s book Job. Regarding Horus’s

(Horus of Behutet), Flint Paw Knife, E. A. Wallis Budge hieroglyphic translation:[37]

11

And Heru-Behutet transformed himself into a lion which had a face of a man, and

which was crowned with the triple crown. His paw was like unto a flint knife, and he

went round and round by the side of them, and brought back one hundred and forty two

[of the enemy], and he rent them in pieces with his claws. He tore out their tongues, and

their blood flowed on the ridges of the land in this place; and he made them the property

of those who were in his following [whilst] he was upon the mountains. And Ra said unto

Thoth, “Behold, Heru-Behutet is like unto a lion in his lair [when] he is on the back of

the enemy who have given unto him their tongues.”

Julunggul

Julunggul is a Devouring Mother Great Goddess. She is symbolized as a

Feathered Serpent similar to those of Africa, Mesoamerica and Oceana. She stays within

the feminine herself as a goddess and not an animus projected servant male god. She is

the goddess of Dreamtime before humanity came into existence. She created the rivers

and lived in a deep pool as did Grendel’s mother in the epic of Beowulf and various

Ladies of the Lake.

Once when the Wawalag sisters camped by her pool on accidentally had her

menstrual blood spill into her pool. She rose out of the waters so fiercely the water from

her back fell as rain and she ate the sisters. Julunggul later spit them out.

Julunngl is invoked during male initiation rites. She is brought forth to devour the

male initiates as boys, transform them inside her according to the historically formulated

feminine social dictate and then spit them back out into society as men. Aboriginal male

initiation was a form of circumcision, as skin is shed by snakes as the mature, including a

subincision on the ventral aspect of the penis to draw blood which they call Male

Menstruation. With repeated ritualizations of Male Menstruation the scarring became

vulvar in appearance.

These puberty rituals within the feminine purview are very similar worldwide

though variations exist due to time in space as Campbell illustrated in his

Transformations of Myth through Time. In Julunngal the female entering puberty is

changed by natural internal biology - Nature. Males are socially changed in the dark

matriarchy physically in which males perform the ritual as servants of the feminine –

Servant of Nature.

12

Eingana

Eingana appears to be the precursor to Julunggul. She is also a snake goddess

who lives Dreamtime and the creatrix of all water, animals and humans. Everything in

creation was inside her. She resided in a large watering hole. Every living thing is

attached to her by a sinew and if she decides to let go of the sinew the creature will die.

This is reminiscent of the silver thread and golden bowl in Middle Eastern theology.

Eingana swallowed all the black males and was in agony carrying all creation.

She had no vagina. The god Barraiya opened a hole near her anus so she could give birth

which is the same vaginal mythology of the Inuet’s Disembowling Goddess. Now during

the rainy season she renews the world with all types of life as elsewhere a springtime

event.

National Geographic Genome Project

From Australian Eingana/Julunggul to Inuit Ululijarnaq/Kamaut

Both of these groups share the unique mythology of the Great Mother Goddess

originally not having a vagina where a male consort god pierced his female counterpart

creating vaginas so she will be able to give birth.

Meaning of these myths is that woman brings forth life. Without male penetration

in sexual intercourse impregnating her life would not continue. The female makes herself

available allowing him to open her. This is a beauty of humanity.

Actual physical assault of children and anyone else as in the Australian myth, not

existent in the Inuit culture, is another matter whose realm is in criminology.

The Collective Unconscious has been with humanity a very long time regarding

spirituality, theology and religion. Modern humanity first came out of Africa over 50,000

years ago. The first group migrated along Indian Ocean coast. One place they diverged

occurred in the area of Malaysia. A group migrated eastward and south into Australia.

The other group migrated northerly through Japan continuing to the Bering Sea into the

Alaskan west coast and southerly along the America’s coast line into British Columbia.

The shared genome between the native Australians and the Inuits is the feminine

C and D Halogroups. They did not go further south in the Americas with their male

genetics though females integrated with other Halogroups.

Other migrations into the Americas came from Central Asia and the ones that

moved southerly to populate the all the Americas. Halogroups include A, B2, X and Q.

As everywhere over our more than 50,000 year migrations there is mixing of

people that leads to Comixio Religionis, mixing of religions, consequently

transformations of myth occur. In one instance National Geographic connected a Navaho

male genetically with a woman in Greece. Yet, though myth alters through

incorporation into new religious structures, basic concepts mainly stay the same.

13

The Human Goddess

Genital rituals are from the feminine. They can be constructive for both self and

society. But, the boundary is crossed with any type of physical assault and battery

including dismemberments and dismemberments are disfigurations. Criminology of such

rituals is narcissistic behavior whose motive is power, control and domination of the sex

of the people who are victimized. They are but manipulations of the other sex that

reaches into society for social privilege out of selfishness. In delusion and fantasy they

stand on the bodies of their victims that even include their own offspring.

Meaning of these myths is not coital sexual position constituting denial, deferral,

deflection and deceit, including self-deceit. These myths are but primitive explanation to

the facts of life in procreation. And the Darkness that creeps in depends on feminine self-

understanding for correction. Chemically, Like Dissolves Like. Philo documented:[38]

14

The ordinance of circumcision… and most important, is that which relates

to the provision thus made for prolificness; for it is said that the seminal fluid

proceeds in its path easily, neither being at all scattered, nor flowing on its

passage into what may be called the bags of the prepuce.

Regarding feminine animus projection with knives as a penile projection in ritual,

Carolyn Baker in Reclaiming the Dark Goddess observed:[39]

A femininity that disowns men and maleness cannot help but resemble the

very aspects of maleness it so passionately abhors.

Jung stating to understand archetypes but not to get caught in them requires each

sex to understand itself the other sex and how each interact. If understood the message of

archetype myth-working becomes richness to both self and society. Self-control in myth:

A Mandated Report to the social body regarding socialized and acculturated abuse.

Mandated Report

Monteleone is a major guideline for all Mandated Reporters in the United States,

being circumcision is a social ritual, all who read are the proper authorities to evaluate

and determine efficacy. Monteleone stresses:[41]

15

Child abuse involves every segment of society and crosses all social, ethnic,

religious, and professional lines. The definition of child abuse can range from a

narrow focus, limited to intentional inflicted injury, to a broad scope, covering

any act that adversely affects the developmental potential of the child. Included

in the definition are neglect (acts of omission) and physical psychological, or

sexual injury (acts of commission) by a parent or caretaker. Intent is not

considered in reporting abuse; protection of the child is paramount.
