Aerecura (or Erecura)

Aerecura is a goddess worshipped in ancient times, often thought to be Celtic in origin, mostly represented with the attributes of Proserpina and associated with the Roman underworld god Dis Pater, as on an altar from Sulzbach. Besides her chthonic (Deities or Spirits of the Underworld) symbols, she is often depicted with such attributes of fertility as the cornucopia and apple baskets. She is depicted in a seated posture, wearing a full robe and bearing trays or baskets of fruit, in depictions from Cannstatt and Sulzbach. Miranda Green calls Aericura a “Gaulish Hecuba”, while Noémie Beck characterizes her as a “land-goddess” sharing both underworld and fertility aspects with Dis Pater. Several monuments in honour of Erecura occur in cemeteries or other funereal contexts.

Below are images that depicts the importance of the underworld which is too often mistakenly taken to be a place where soul are sent to suffer. The first one is Yggdrasil, the Norse world tree which connects the heavens, the world, and the underworld. The second one represents the legs of the god Vishnu as the Cosmic Man depict earth and the seven realms of the Hindu underworld of Patala. The feet rest on cosmic serpent Shesha.

It is interesting to note that fertility comes form the Underworld. The cycle of birth and death is driven from there. It is also worth noting that this is the reason why people who are blocked often feel a lack of strength in their feet.

Back to the Goddess now. What messages does she convey when she is drawn in the oracle. Well, the first obvious meaning is that right now at this moment you are rooted properly, now is the time to work on your Grounding and spending much time in nature to gather the necessary energies that will act as fertilizers for your projects and life plans. Patience is a virtue now, as when we have sowed a seed, we must now take care of that seed and the earth where it has been planted, patiently feeding it with the correct ingredients, most importantly love and passion, and have faith whilst observing the miracles of manifestation.
