Discovering Malta – The Land of the Goddess

The Goddess is about energy or consciousness – in Kundalini we refer to this as the Shatki energy of creation, often depicted as the rising serpent. The Goddess of Fertility is the most recognised statuette on the Maltese islands, There have been a few other renditions of the ‘fat lady’ as she is commonly known – The Venus of Malta is one of them.

In addition to being home to some of the oldest goddess ruins on the planet Malta is also situated on powerful ley lines on the Earth’s grid. It is said that the ancient neolithic sites were built on the ley lines of the earth and served to mark, anchor and harness the energy of the stars and the energy already present at these locations. Just as our bodies have lines of energy and power vortexes so too does the planet.

During the temple period the locals honoured the Divine Feminine Energy of the Goddess. The temple people had reverence and respect for the Divinity, they honoured its mysterious and magical energy, and they collaborated with its creative plan on earth.

“Malta is the manifestation on Earth of the Divine Feminine. The connection and bonding with the Mother is very much present in the Maltese psyche. The old prehistoric heritage sites, the new Christian era buildings, the landscape and the whole natural environment of the Maltese islands aspire to the maternal expression.” Francis Xavier Aloisio

Hal Saflieni Hypogeum

Buried under both rock and history lies the Hypogeum of Ħal-Saflieni in Malta. The ancient temple is the only prehistoric underground temple in the world. It dates back to nearly 3,500 years ago and holds a unique secret. It consists of three levels, the oldest of which dates to 3600 BCE. Initially, the site was a sacred feminine sanctuary. One of the rooms, named the “Oracle Chamber” is said to amplify voices dramatically, with certain frequencies resonating enough to be felt through the body. Its structure resonates at 111 Hz, or the ‘holy frequency.’ An ancient civilization has built underground temples around. Home of the “sleeping lady.” A mother goddess said to represent fertility, death, and afterlife. This unique subterranean complex has been listed as an individual UNESCO World Heritage Site. According to archaeological reports, Ħal-Saflieni cult practiced earth and nature oriented rituals, experiencing the divine cycles and rhythms of Earth, Moon, Sun, and the seasons.

Temple of Ħaġar Qim

“There is a potent fertility line of energy through the ancient temples of  Ħaġar Qim, a strong connection to the cosmic mother’s womb of creation, that when alighted the womb expands. It’s a potent energy we can work with intent to enrich our heart and womb space with healing.The inner chambers of the temple are womb spaces where man goddess figures where found. Here energy lines are feminine but there is a gentle union of masculine energy which also flows inline and merges.” Kate Jane Wright

The Neolithic temples of Ħaġar Qim and Mnajdra were built within a stone’s throw of each other. Ħaġar Qim stands imposingly on a hilltop that ends in sheer cliff, overlooking the azure Mediterranean Sea. Going through the solid doorway was meant to feel like entering the vagina of the Earth Goddess. The temple itself was regarded as a big womb in which people could enter to seek renewal. At Ħaġar Qim, the Venus of Malta, Neolithic’s top model, was unearthed. She is a stone-carved lady with plump curves who is supporting her breasts over her arm in a ‘look-at-these-treasures’ kind of posture.
