I receive you this morning under a rainy window.
The winds of change tell me something bigger than we can know in our minds is shifting.
I’m present to the Earth’s prayers and her call for me.
She says that when all women align to and listen to their womb body life will restore to balance.
And yet the majority of women are number to their own senses and seduced by forms of wealth and worth that degrade the Earth body- and we/they are disgusting it as the work of the Goddess.
So much to say.
It is no accident to have found you in this way. My soul said to reach you. I live in the Olympic peninsula. Salish lands and seas. Eagles cry Her name because the Orca have become silent and the waves that reach us no longer have all of the colors of sky and starlight. I grieve with the Eagle as he watches her- like old lovers. He reminds her of her beauty as though she has never aged, never lost her children, never cracked or crumbled. Like old lovers he sees only the force of pure love and natural wonder she is and will always be- someday again.
But now he says to me. “Granddaughter gather the women. The people will then follow. You’ve been invited here for the largest grief ceremony ever done. The loudest grief song ever sung. To witness the transformation of the greatest love ever known. And all will die to be reborn.”
And he watched her.
They know it’s almost time to shapeshift and say goodbye.

The prophecies move through me and I share in the wisdom I have been gifted to give through my womb channel- which bleeds today. A day after I laid to rest a beloved man of the Earth with my community. He was of the Eagle and Sky. He walked between the worlds. He has three children -yet a whole band of brothers and sisters he knew could step in.
So much to say about the messages I received by witnessing his body lay to rest- as nourishment and the most high and sacred offering to this Earth that he fought for.
He was buried in a simple shroud of woven love and prayer and dirt.
Thank you for asking to share my voice. We must unify and support one another.
