The Fifteenth Letter of the Alphabet. Matrix Frequency No. 15 (including suggestions from Richard Bartlett’s 6th CD on the Frequencies, from the Home study Course: “The Matrix Energetics Experience.”) The Genetic/DNA and the glandular aspects governing reproductive cycles; also the related male endocrine system; clears and balances the physical circuitry and governs the complex inner systems communications, keeping the entire body in a dynamic dis-equilibrium – a universal chaotic pattern representing a complex, intricate and internal order (which is the secret of maintaining health and balance). And to relate it to the Letter “O” - The physical mother; the womb, birthing, the female breasts; the Earth-Mother Goddess. (How this further relates to “O,” the 15th Letter of the alphabet, will be discussed under”Letter-Number Table 6.“- 1+5=6. on the Header Menu Bar – yet to be added.)
“O” shares similar energies with “M” as both relate to the mother and the Earth-Mother Goddess.
Whereas “M” yearns to create the ideal family, “O” needs to have been part of an ideal family, to have had basic emotional needs satisfied as a child – a factor vital to emotional health. This directly ties into eating habits developed from the way mothers use food to destructively control or positively nourish their offspring.
The adult ”O” curriculum includes lessons in learning to be self-sufficient without expecting or demanding that others supply their emotional needs.
An Oedipus complex develops when mothers turn their sons into substitute husbands (from the Greek myth of Oedipus Rex who unwittingly killed his father and married his mother).
It’s interesting to note how many early ex-Presidents of the US had several or doubled “O’s” in their names….and to study the weak or strong emotional reactions they showed – plus their responses to food! In passing: Herbert Clark Hoover, the 31st President was famous as a humanitarian and food-relief administrator.
The Food Issue: If you are deprived of unconditional, self enhancing love as a child, you never completely mature emotionally and may turn to food for compensation. It’s called “feeding the Hungry Ghosts” – the starving inner selves; yet when you nurture yourself (by doing what brings joy and wonder into your life), your body’s metabolism changes radically, you respond differently to food; cravings vanish and you enter the realm of the magical, sacred self. ( Look to the letters each side of the “O’s” in your names to find what brings you deeply into joy and wonder.)
Some “O’s” become amazing cooks – others just get involved with food and nourishing others. T.V. Talk show host Oprah Winfrey reveals her great and caring nature through her films, daily TV programs (including her cable network), her inspiring “O” magazine, numerous generous acts and humanitarian endeavors – but she also has done constant battle with her inner “hungry ghosts”…until finally accepting her status and beauty as a ‘larger’ person. And in the past, buxom ex-T.V. host Rosie O’Donnell (with three “O’s”) was known for her caring, positive programs and fund raising.
Balanced “O:” Master of emotions; patience; understanding; wisdom; contentment; detached empathy; compassion; bringing ‘nourishment’ and healing through actions and words; loving role-model; moist and flowing rather than dried-up and arid; secure in the ability to give and receive love; self contained and self nurturing; reaching out to give instead of reaching out to take; appreciation of good food without guilt or addiction…and (regardless of gender), merging with the feminine principal (the inner Goddess), as well as the outer Goddess (the Earth Mother); sustaining the planet; maintaining an underlying oneness with all nature, peoples and creatures; concerned for the suffering of others.
Unbalanced “O:” self-absorption, imagined insults, emotional demands, the wounded child; emotional manipulation or indulgence; hedonism. Consider Oscar Wilde: brilliant, ostentatious (letter “W”), nineteenth century successful playwright (his delightful comedy, “The Importance of Being Earnest”) and author; his one dark novel, “The Picture of Dorian Grey” reflected his own self-indulgent downfall. Other unbalanced “O’s” manipulate by discerning the emotional vulnerabilities of others, then cleverly using the information against them – or they control their surroundings through unpleasant and unpredictable moods.
Weak “O’s” become the victims preyed upon by stronger emotional manipulators (including stronger negative “O’s”). To earn love and acceptance, other weak “O’s” turn into ‘responsibility sponges,’ running around trying to do the impossible and by sopping up other people’s puddles of unhappiness. The converse: – searching for sympathy, the “Oh poor me” syndrome. Every time you see or speak to them, you receive the same litany of misfortune and misery.
Severely unbalanced, “O’s” tend toward persistent paranoid fears – loss of possessions, loss of food (fear of starvation and deprivation); loss of love-objects (fear of emotional deprivation)..etc.
Interesting Note:16th century, Italian anatomist Gabriel Fallopius (with the “O” as Focus-Challenge) was the first to dissect, study and name, the female parts of reproductive anatomy.
When “O” is in YOUR NAME: it’s how you nurture (or feed upon) yourself – it’s how you nurture (or feed upon) others and how you relate to the inner and outer Goddess.
