Of course, it isn't called that. It's called the Greenhouse. Obviously.
Standing before the map of the United States, which is where the apocalypse is centered, Akiva monitors the growth of the nests around the Phoenix Society HQ. Colorado? Really?
"Hello, my little flower," Gaia coos as she approaches Akiva. "How are the nests in Colorado coming along?"
"Well," Akiva replies, "The ones furthest from the Phoenix Society headquarters are growing at a steady rate, but the closer to the HQ the nests are, the slower and more irregular the growth rates become. I believe it is due to Lucia's presence."
"The Catalyst is slowing down the growth rates? How ironic."
Based on Trinary's popular suggestion, here's Mother Gaia and Father Syndel looking over some offerings they've received from the cast to celebrate both Mother's and Father's Day.
...Well, they never said they had to be good offerings!
Father God & Mother Gaia ~ Men Throughout History Have Disregarded Half of Source Consciousness/Energy
I find it fascinating how the fragile egos of men throughout history have twisted what the idea of “source” is, amongst religion. They’ve conveniently only recognised the masculine half of source as the only source that there is (hence why all abrahamic Gods are ONLY masculine energies within their religious text). But yet they also taught people that their masculine-only version of God is source in its entirety. That God is whole (holy). But how can God be whole without his other half? How can their version of the whole source ONLY be a masculine energy? Because they want to equal themselves as human masculines with the source consciousness?
It’s a fact that there’s duality in everything. Without one end of the spectrum, there can’t be the other. Without negative, you can’t have positive. Without bad, you can’t have good. Without the feminine, you can’t have the masculine. So why has the feminine side of source (which I believe is Mother Gaia) been ignored and eradicated from mainstream belief systems so easily? How can a masculine procreate by himself without a feminine? Father God & Mother Gaia are the PARENTS of creation. But, again, men throughout history have conveniently ignored the mother and only acknowledged the father in religion as a way to feel like they’re the superior energy (as masculines). Even going as far as demonising the feminine embodiments of God. But there’s no such thing. Father God and Mother Gaia make a whole, so how in tf are they only worshipping half of source while pretending like they’re worshipping the entirety of source? Only to simultaneously abuse, oppress, and degrade the physical embodiment (women/females) of the feminine side of source, on this physical planet? Men are the physical embodiment of the masculine side of source, but for some reason, their human egos decided to develop a superiority complex and oppress the physical embodiment of the feminine. While pretending to respect source? How tf are you “respecting” source while you abuse, oppress, and degrade half of source itself?
This is what has made prayer so difficult for me. I want to address Father God, but I never do in my prayers because it feels like my addressee list is incomplete, if that makes sense. This is why. I usually just say “source” but that doesn’t feel enough for me. It feels too removed from me sometimes. I want to be able to feel what’s similar to a human connection with source but just seeing it as the source of energy of creation doesn’t allow that. And I know that a lot of people struggle with the same thing. Instead of praying only to “Father God”, try praying to “Father God & Mother Gaia”. As if they’re parents who you can speak to, instead of the skewed religious version of God as a tyrannical biblical Father. That version of God is the projection of weak-ass male ego over centuries. You don’t have to subscribe to that version of God that has been twisted and lied about. And hopefully, this is how many of us can heal our religious trauma.
For my people who are into astrology, who have chiron and/or lilith in the 9th house, this particularly could be healing for you.
Spending time in nature allows our hearts to become full, at peace and in the present moment, where we can begin to tune into our infinite possibilities and essence
A little light language to connect with nature and ground with the earth...
~
When we listen to the world, we understand life. We each carry the language and wisdom of our ancestors within us. When we learn to drown out the noise and distractions around us, we can hear our ancestors and the earth calling to us. Through the veil we can hear them chant, we can hear them sing. And they always are inviting us to join in, to celebrate our oneness with each other and Mother Earth; to remember who we are...
A lifelong battle with chronic illness and disability left me housebound for several years. As someone who is naturally one with nature, suddenly finding myself cut off from it was harder than I will ever be able to put into words. But earlier this year I was able to start connecting with the grounding, healing energy of the earth again, and I wanted to share that beautiful energy in my own way. Every second that we come into contact with any aspect of nature, we are witnessing life in motion. We are witnessing a divine miracle. We are witnessing creation itself. So while we have these physical forms, let’s soak it up, savour it, express our gratitude and never take for granted the opportunity to witness the way every single form of life is connected to each other. We are all One.
