ELEMENTERY WISDOM

Earth and what we make of it

After all, we owe it all to mother earth.
She cooked in her shell,
she baked in the sunshine,
this beautyful ALL,
including US!

Just because our earth have lived for more than 500 million years, you could say our earth has become a wise mother. So, if we need advice about life, she is a truthfull counselor. That's why we honor her when we gather by bringing her into our circle symbolicly.
The four elements, earth, water, air and fire always have a place on our altar.

Naturally, we strongly try to live in a way that keeps Mother Nature happy.
Of course not always in everything, but what is?? Not even Mother Nature herself, dig that.
So practically we are in favour for the natural way, which means recycling, in nature nothing is garbage, is thrown away, there's always some organism who's there to use it. Humans were caught in making money for the last some hundred years, in a childish way, without really thinking about it.

That surprises me always, to think of it, in the so called "rationalized" society, nobody seemed to think about the consequenses. Just now when we are all forced to face the consequenses of, for example, the pollution, some people try other ways.
And so we live our lives, and sing our song on this wavelength, to be part of it all, to the max!
