Also, I especially loved reading about your kindness towards that little black cat, and your frank discussion of animal culls. Can you imagine how Mother Earth must feel towards these little hapless ones who are mass murdered by humans for their "convenience." And we wonder why She needs to release all Her grief and anger in the form of fires, tornadoes, tsunamis and droughts.
I loved reading about your night at Avebury on the Solstice. That's something I have longed to do my whole life. And I really appreciate the rest of the article also. Thanks for sharing your lovely and relevant thoughts with us here. Blessings!
In spite of the obstruction by officialdom, I hope you enjoyed Avebury. I've just come back from an amazing camping holiday.
I agree with what you say about Winter and darkness. The cycle of the seasons actually reflects all aspects of the human psyche, and the changes for the better we can make for ourselves over the seasons and years. Celebrating the eight "Celtic" festivals - the solstices and equinoxes and those in between - as well as helping to reconnect us with the seasons can be used as a way of assisting self - development. Unfortunately our so - called culture has little interest in truly connecting with Nature, in spite of the fact that separation from Nature is one of the basic reasons why much of humankind is in such a poor state.
I've been to one or two places that don't want human presence. On the other hand, visiting an off the track piece of woodland or countryside frequently can enable relationship to develop between the terrain and oneself. This can lead to the area feeling welcoming and facilitate connection.
With regard to animal culls, it's hard to tell whether they're valid or the result of excessive zeal, or possibly some form of profiteering in some instances.

Yes indeed. The hubris of our civilisation just isn't sustainable ... we live in momentous times involving so many choices on a personal level!
