 | The spaces of representation in this case are not as myopic as Eli, for in the realm of the shrine, the external and frontal representation of space, it is not possible for her womb to be mentioned, seen or referred to. |
 | What this means is that whereas in the story of I Samuel 1-2 Hannah's womb, the major space of representation in the text of 1 Samuel 1-2, acts as one pole over against the sanctuary of Shiloh, in the larger context, her womb and the sanctuary fold into one space. |

 | It is called the womb heart because it is the place that can receive and contain the Divine, and is the place where the true soul of the individual can grow into their relationship with the Divine. |
 | The womb heart does not have to be completely clean and the dreamer may still have deep wounds that need healing, but it is the place that can begin to contain God. |
 | Development of the womb heart is necessary for the child to have a place to live within the self of a dreamer. |
