Heavenly Mother

"You will meet and become acquainted with your eternal Mother, the wife of your Father in Heaven… How could a Father claim His title unless there were also a Mother to share that parenthood?"

"Have I then a Mother in Heaven?"

"Come to me; here's the myst'ry that man hath not seen; Here's our Father in heaven, and Mother, the Queen"

"In the heav'ns are parents single? No, the thought makes reason stare; Truth is reason—truth eternal Tells me I've a mother there. When I leave this frail existence— When I lay this mortal by, Father, mother, may I meet you In your royal court on high? Then, at length, when I've completed All you sent me forth to do, With your mutual approbation Let me come and dwell with you."

"Woman is the heiress of the Gods. She is joint heir with her elder brother, Jesus the Christ; but she inherits from her God-Father and her God-Mother. … this last grand truth of woman's divinity and of her eternal Mother as the partner with the Father in the creation of worlds…"

"Does man so far excel that he dare boast "I am your head," and still say God is just? Nay, call this truth, upon a single throne The King and Queen together reign as one; No mine, no thing, no first nor last be known"

"Oh my mother, thou that dwellest In thy mansions up on high, Oft methinks I still remember When you bade your child good by … How you gave me words of counsel To guide aright my straying feet; How you taught by true example All of Father's laws to keep While I strive in this probation How to learn the gospel truth, May I merit your approval As I did in early youth"

"All men and women are in the similitude of the universal Father and Mother, and are literally the sons and daughters of Deity."

"It doesn't take from our worship of the Eternal Father, to adore our Eternal Mother, any more than it diminishes the love we bear our earthly fathers, to include our earthly mothers in our affections. In fact, the love of one is a complement of our love for the other. We honor woman when we acknowledge Godhood in her eternal Prototype."

"Therefore, the Vision held the bright promise of equality and freedom for women. The divine Mother, side by side with the divine Father, the equal sharing of equal rights, privilege, and responsibilities, in heaven and on earth…"

"She is a goddess in might and dignity. And to consider her otherwise, I think, is disrespectful to Her."

"Heavenly Mother, as the Mother of all women, holds multitudes under Her wings. Hers is the face that is reflected in the motherly woman, the independent woman, the infertile woman, and the queer woman. We need not restrict Her esthetics and by extension, her love, on account of our ignorance. Her image is the image of all those that choose the label "woman" with as many faces, variations, and expression that are manifested on earth and in the heavens. She is the Mother of all women."

"The Heavenly Mother in Strangers is not a domesticated mother or wife but a fierce and powerful goddess with various faces and representations in a heterodox Godhead."

"One day I had a dream about Heavenly Mother. She spoke to me. I was in the town where I was born, and I was under an avocado tree. And suddenly I heard this voice. She began, "I love all my daughters." It was a beautiful voice."
