🌖Blood Moon Menstralia đźŚ”

Posted on January 2, 2019April 8, 2019 by Deep.Earth.Dreaming

Painting with my moon blood is a reclamation practice for me... One of the many ways I have found to change my relationship with what used to be 'the red curse'....

We are thoroughly trained to be ashamed of and avoid what mechanicalists call anthropomorphism; that is, the “projection” onto other life forms or even inanimate objects of human attributes. This dynamic, the accusation of anthropomorphism, has only one function: to shame and shut down any innate recognition of the livingness and intelligence of anything other than the human. It keeps people oriented toward the belief that the world is just a collection of resources there for our use, that humans are somehow exceptional, different, more valuable than the rest of the natural world.
To listen is to continually give up all expectation and to give our attention, completely and freshly, to what is before us, not really knowing what we will hear or what that will mean. In the practice of our days, to listen is to lean in, softly, with a willingness to be changed by what we hear.
The finding of twentieth-century science undermines the notion of a seperate self distinct from the world it observes and acts upon. Einstein theoretically demonstrated that self perceptions are shaped by its relation to the phenomena it interacts with.
Everything dreams.
Because reality is seen as dependently co-arising, or interrelated in nature, every act is understood to have an impact on the larger web of life, and the process of development is perceived as being multidimensional.
To live within a sentient geography is to find oneself embedded in a rich and engaging terrain; a land that speaks. To our ancestors, and many indigenous cultures today, the landscape was another voice, a territory imbued with mystery and power. What this offered was another way to encounter the sacred and to enliven the imagination. This fertile exchange between place and psyche established a bond with the land, which, in turn, created an ethos of respect for the land. When the ground holds value, when it is the dwelling place of the spirits and the ancestors, when magic swirls through the canyons and across the plains, the relationship between the people and the land becomes sacramental.
