The April / May Spring Issue: We honor the Divine Feminine; Women, Mothers, Earth, the Environment and Rebirth.
Divine Feminine Spirituality, explains Mary Hayes Grieco, is an earth-based spirituality that was predominant in human culture before the rise of the patriarchy; it still exists in indigenous peoples throughout the world, including the Native American culture. It acknowledges the Divine Mother is God, guiding us through our intuition, as well as God the Father, guiding through reason.
In a talk from 1971 (Ecological Awareness), the late Alan Watts instructed that “When people mistake saluting a flag for loving one’s country, they are sadly mistaken.” It’s insanity when a flag is viewed as more precious than the actual country it represents.
Will Tuttle delivers a powerful gem in Honoring Mothers and Ending Slavery. He states that de facto slavery conditions exist in a number of industries in Africa, India and elsewhere; additionally, millions of women and children are trapped in the horrific international sex slave trade, running rampant in the U.S. and Europe. Dr. Tuttle details the underpinnings as to why this is.
We met Sunil Pai, MD, at this year’s Real Truth About Health 10-Day Conference. He says Health Insurance and Affordable Health Care are Oxymorons, maintaining “There is no care or affordability with insurance, especially since insurance companies are mainly private and profit-driven by definition.”
Your Best Immunity to All Viruses is obviously a timely piece. Alan Cohen declares “there is a virus that has infected far more people and is causing far more problems than corona: the virus of fear. When we drop into fear, we lower our resistance to disease and its effects.” This situation reminds us to follow the basic hygiene that we’ve been told since we were kids: Wash your hands and don’t put your fingers in your nose, mouth or eyes. This, and not creating mass hysteria, will help to keep us well.
A recent Time magazine article: “The World Health Organization (WHO) on March 11 declared COVID-19 a pandemic…The term is most often applied to new influenza strains, and the CDC says it’s used when viruses ‘are able to infect people easily and spread from person to person in an efficient and sustained way’ in multiple regions. The declaration refers to the spread of a disease, rather than the severity of the illness it causes. In some ways, declaring a pandemic is more art than science. ‘Pandemics mean different things to different people,’ National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Director Dr. Anthony Fauci said in February. ‘It really is borderline semantics, to be honest with you.’” Well, honest is good.
Peace All-ways,
Neil & Andrea
