Caroline Casey the Visionary Activist
Voting for the Earth Radio
We be voting for the earth- in our Fund Drive while answering Antonio Machado’s query “What have we done with the garden entrusted to us?!”
We are available to Mystery & Willing to Participate! Woofing the dedicated work of Seán Pádraig O’Donoghue
and John Perlin…
So, deftly, once again to guide us, be Seán Pádraig O’Donoghue, with his latest book The Silver Branch and the Otherworld: Forest Magic with Plant and Fungi Allies.
“Braiding together insights from herbalism, ecology, neurobiology, psychology, Irish history, and magical tradition, Seán Pádraig O’Donoghue shows how we can tap into the flow of communication from the wild world and our ancestral traditions.”
Seán is a poet and herbalist living in western Maine in the shadow of a chain of mountains that stretch south to Georgia and north and east across the sea to Ireland and Scotland. He guides individuals in finding better ways to connect with the living world along their journeys toward healing, insight, meaning, and liberation. With compassionate listening and deeply intuitive insights, Seán works with clients to identify the patterns they want to shift in their lives. Then, he shares perspectives and strategies with them for connecting with plants, ancestors, and the land as allies in transformation. https://otherworldwell.com/
Then Caroline re-welcomes John Perlin, whose prodigious “A Forest Journey,” re-published by Patagonia, is our primary magnetizing pledge incentive for today!
How did we get here? this mega-crisis.. and what shall we do?
Radio Magic…to honor Symbiotic Mutualism… How can we humbly receive guidance from the forest regarding community…
To protect what we love, become like it, adapt its qualities…
To protect wolves – become more like wolves.
To protect Coyotes – adopt Coyote strategy. (I have lived with actual Coyote and Wolf Dog, longer than have lived with humans.
They certainly taught me a thing or two… all a negotiation for reciprocal evolutionary benefit…)
To protect water, become as water. To protect the forest …
“Retaining our forests can help keep resolve climate crisis protect the integrity of many of our streams and rivers, and continue to provide food and shelter for much of the world’s land animals,” says Perlin, author of four books and former physics professor at University of California, Santa Barbara. “It is my hope that the new edition of A Forest Journey will make clear the imperative humanity faces, because losing our forests would not merely be the end of nature, it could mean the end of us.”
John Perlin is the author of four books: A Golden Thread: 2500 Years of Solar Architecture and Technology; A Forest Journey: A History of Trees and Civilization; From Space to Earth: The Story of Solar Electricity; and Let It Shine: The 6000-Year Story of Solar Energy. Perlin taught physics at University of California, Santa Barbara. He lives in Santa Barbara. https://john-perlin.com/
For truly this dedicated work should be included in all curriculums,
in our on-going task of becoming good earth steward Citizens….
