In a comparative sense, Máderáhttje is also the one we relate to as earth father. With the cultural aspect of him also expressed from within as an embodiment of henki, a person’s life force as it was experienced and conceptualized by people in pre-Christian northern Finland and Sweden. Something that we feel in our chest that connects us to mother earth, with Máttaráhkká as a sense of an absolute physical belonging. We experience ourselves as an embodiment of it that makes us part of the earth. As if we descends into our bodies in a kind of unification, a pre-marriage, or an engagement. An experience that we are entirely made up of all that is, and that we share it with all that exists. Without them we belong to nothing and feel lost. We have not yet passed through our second birth and are in a secluded psychic state outside of our bodies that have not yet become receptive to the within of the world as vessels for how it presents itself to us, and from its own self-organizing whole as it exists both within us and everywhere around us. Or how this makes itself known and speak to us.
