Matangi — Goddess of Broken Speech and the Outcast

Summary

A Hindu goddess traditionally associated with impure speech, the marginalized, those cast out from society, and the power found in what is rejected or discarded. In this episode, Psyche invokes her as a deity of radical honesty, unpolished truth, and the sacred alchemy of shame and brokenness. She dwells not in temples but in gutters, alleys, and the spaces of silence that mainstream culture refuses to acknowledge.
