Sacred Earth

Changes article continued from last page, click here!

Note that paying a price isn't the same as either penalty or penance, it's simply a matter of responsibility: the portentous results of our collective failure to respond. Contrary to certain social and religious dictums, we're being neither tested nor punished. More accurately, the directive inspirited Earth is probing for new healing, for new ways of being and relationship that can return the whole to balance. She's probing for those precious empathics who can hear her cries, sense her needs, and feel her cumulative pain. And she's probing for a reaction, as if to ask “Is anyone home? Does anyone notice? Does anyone care?”

The significance of the Earth changes is so great and the social condition so urgent, it's tempting to reject the implications and duck the assignment. It's certainly simpler to blame it all on the power of evil spirits, the manipulations of scheming extraterrestrials, the trickery of a hellish devil, the retribution of a wrathful god... or on an impervious corporate state. It's a relief on some level to imagine that the forces of destruction are insurmountable, the perpetrators too powerful for us to bother attempting to intervene. But whenever there is a human or institutional cause we share a degree of culpability, and we find both an opening for activism and a chance for reformation. And when the tumult and tragedy are set into motion by something bigger than our mortal hominid kind, we can still assume we have a part to play... contributing both to the creation of the imbalance itself, and to the global healing that must follow.
