Shifting 

 There comes a time when all things we know are left in question. We are living in such times. 
  To survive one must adapt. It is the most resilient of species that can change according to their environment. How will we change to suit ours?
  Here in the USA we find ourselves facing high levels of tension and anxiety as we prepare to elect a new leader for this country this week. At the same time Native American's and allies fight for the right to clean water against the forces of industry. 
  As the world struggles with ecological emergencies it is no time to be divided, yet here we are again. We have it seems learned little about how to relate and honor each other and this beautiful planet we inhabit. If we are to survive as a species we must change this! 
  As we slip into this last period of Autumn, what some call the 'veil' between this world and that of our ancestors is now drawing itself closed for the long sleep of Winter. 
  I ask you all to take time to consider how those of our loved ones who have passed would feel about these times and our roles in them. Ask if you will what they might advise for you. Write it down and keep it as a reminder.
  May the best of changes prevail in this time 
  Be strong 
  Be wise 
  and Be well
