    Uitnodiging 21 maart 2021
Regenboogcirkel Ceremonie rond het heilige vredesvuur  (sacred fire)
Locatie/Location: aan de voet van  het Vredespaleis Carnegieplein, Den Haag/The Hague
Tijdstip: 21 maart 2021 van 11.30 uur tot 16.00 uur

Hoi Lezer
21 Maart verschijnt aan de horizon en midden in de stormen des tijds doen wij weer een oproep uit gaan om u uit te nodigen deel te nemen aan de heilig vuur ceremonie op 21 maart 2021.
Terwijl de wereld om ons heen sneller verandert dan we het bij kunnen houden, klopt het vuur op de deur van ieder mensenhart om ruimte te maken om stil te staan, in te keren, ons te verbinden, en een steentje bij te dragen aan het herstel van de harmonie op onze planeet.
Laten we gehoor geven aan deze roep
Laten we samen komen en een cirkel vormen
Laten we heilig vuur ontsteken
Mat open hart en zingende ziel
Met gefocuste intentie
Met drum  en spraak
Met stilte en aandacht
Laten we zingen, bidden, spreken en ontvangen
In een cirkel van kloppende harten, verbindende adem, standvastige lichamen
 
Rond heilig vuur
Aan de voet van het Vredespaleis
Op de drempel van een tijdperk van Vrede voor onze Planeet
 
Ja, laten we dat doen!
21 maart 2021
Wij kruipen uit het systeem, staan op, en nemen onze plek in
Met voeten in de klei en haren in de wind
Samen
 
Wanneer je deel uit maakt van een traditie of volk of stroming, en vandaar  daar graag iets van in wilt brengen tijdens de ceremonie, weet je dan uitgenodigd.
We vragen je enkel om vooraf contact te maken met de ceremonieleider via silenceforpeace@de-grenswaker.nl of ter plekke, zodat dat geïntroduceerd kan worden binnen de ceremonie.

De komende weken doen we steeds  ceremonie op vrijdag ,op een van de windrichtingen , dus op verschillende plaatsen in Nederland. Zoals het er nu uitziet gaan we ergens in januari op een dag ,ieder vanuit zijn eigen windrichting weer naar het centrum van Nederland om de cirkel rond te maken.

Post op facebook van Grootmoeder Robin Youngblood:

I've now heard around a hundred different theories, some call them 'Truths', about COVID-19.  I have a different point of view. 

Imo, COVID was sent through the animal messengers by Mother Earth herself to put us in Time Out, like the very naughty, destructive children we have been, in order to get us to reflect and examine what we've been doing and STOP destroying the planet, animals, and ourselves...in that order.

Secondly, rather than disconnecting us, she is teaching us that we are ALWAYS, ALL WAYS, connected, like it or not. Every single thing we think, say, do affects everything and everyone else.  

COVID is giving us the clearest opportunity we've known to choose Love or Fear. Love unites, fear divides. Its that simple. 

Any news, theory, opinion, supposed 'Truth' that creates division is based in fear, and is used by the Fear Mongers to control.  

Any news, theory, opinion, supposed 'Truth' that supports better systems, based on ancient indigenous principles that support Life, is based on Love, and opens the gateways to meet our common needs with joy, compassion and kindness.

I don't do conspiracy theories anymore. I don't do mainstream news, either. I listen to Spirit, the wind in the trees, the babbling brook, the whisper of the hummingbirds' wings, and the Ancestors.

This is a good time for Beginner Mind; the state of Not Knowing.  The old world died in March. The new world is yet to be born. 

We are not victims of anything, unless we choose to believe we are. And if you do think you're a victim, look at your fears. You can heal them. 

As the Hopi have told us,  WE were born for these times. WE ARE THE ONES WE'VE BEEN WAITING FOR! 

We have immense choices and opportunities now. We can undo, dismantle,  old colonialism ~ systems that never really worked ~ and co-create new systems, based on ancient, wholistic, indigenous principles,  that will bring harmony and balance to All Our Relatives.

The question is, will we?

Depends on whether we choose to let ourselves be distracted by our addiction to thrill seeking, drama, division... or whether we choose to ground with Mother Earth, feel our abiding heart connection, heal our wounds, listen to our common needs, and BE the solutions we seek.

​​HEART OF HOPE
 
A dear elder once said to us that we have two choices in life
We can either choose love or fear
What will humankind choose at this time?
A time when everything as we know it is being threatened
A time when everything is presenting itself anew
This is the moment
A moment where the clutch of an old system is losing its grip
A moment when humanity is being shown a new answer
 
Love
 
The kind of love that can set the earth ablaze
The kind of love that birthed the fireball of the cosmos
Sent from the spark of Creation
Igniting the beat of every heart
Love that is our birthright
 
Our web of life is failing
There is a rupture caused by ill treatment
Yet, no matter what we do, the sun always rises
Like that, the Divine light keeps shining
Keeps inspiring and directing our weary souls toward love
 
Unfailing
 
Love is constant, abundant, fruitful, purposeful and sustainable
Love that comes from the galaxies, the sun, the moon and the stars
Love that streams to the earth and touches the waters
Love that is the breath of air and the spirit of fire
Love that feeds life to all creatures
Love that is the answer to our fundamental yearning
Love that can embrace all fear
 
How did we become so distanced from this love?
Is love what truly binds us together?
Is love what illuminates, nourishes and moves life forward?
Is love what grows our hope and faith?

Under every stone 
On top of every mountain
In the vastness of the desert
In the depths of the sea
And in all hearts exists this Holy presence
 
Incorruptible
 
What has happened to humankind?
Brain imposed upon heart
Lost in the shadow of ourselves
The fear of disease
Maybe greater than disease itself
 
When we think love has abandoned us
When we don't know who, what, or where we are
Reluctantly, the limited self,
Nature will reshape
 
Shhh...
 
Grandmother, ancient and alive is singing the song of hope
She is pointing to the heart
Like a flower in a desolate field
With all love Grandmother says:
O beloved Earth!
 
To abuse, to destroy, to pollute, to exploit
Grandmother says:
Is no way to treat our Mother!
No way to treat each other!

Along with our Great Mother,
Grandmothers know how to be with suffering
They know how to weep with suffering
This Mother Love is never defeated
This Mother Love recognizes itself in itself
 
Are we being asked to hold suffering in one hand,
and love in the other?
Bring both hands together in a prayer
 
Pray
 
Make your prayers
Believe your prayers
Follow your prayers
Live your prayers
Serve your prayers
 
Grandmother says:
Once you start praying
You cannot stop!
You cannot give up.

From mä creative and the Grandmothers Wisdom Project directors,
Angelina Nasso and Marisol Villanueva

Internationale Council of 13 Indigenous Grandmothers


GRANDMOTHERS MESSAGE IN LIGHT OF THE PANDEMIC
 
The Grandmothers are sending their heartfelt greetings to all of our beloved friends and relatives. 
 
In these times of facing the challenge of the health crisis globally, we are being called upon to powerfully connect with the heart and spirit of truth. We are on the threshold of a new era, where Mother Earth emerges in Her great power to teach her children to discern what in life is essential. Humanity is called to reflect on its past and present and plan a new way of living with Mother Earth. 

There have been many incidences of warning to pay attention to how society has disrespected our relationship and interconnectedness with our Mother Earth. The polluted oceans are poisoning the fish, bee colonies are dying off, birds are dropping from the sky, and on and on. Now, humanity is suffering, reckoning with the effects of greed, industrialisation, and overconsumption. There are no borders, nor social status that is immune to COVID-19. I have heard many times over my life-span that there would come a time when humankind would face great hardship and darkness would cover the earth. Some took it literally, saying that the sun would not be seen for sometime, and maybe this is still going to happen, we don’t know. What we do know is that people all over the world right now are sick and dying, anxious, and in fear. 

I also heard of the Great Awakening, this could be it!

We must nurture relationships and cultivate reciprocity. The air we breathe must be clean and the water we drink must be pure. Terrestrial carbon sequestration must be active and people must efficiently and effectively utilize all available tools to work to create a regenerative environment. A union is necessary between the knowledge contributed by contemporary science and the wisdom contributed by the ancestral tradition of the Indigenous and Tribal Peoples. We must be respectful of Indigenous human rights and acknowledge their fundamental relationship with Nature. We must accept that Mother Earth is a living being, that all forms of life are subjects under the law and that sustainability and mitigation of negative effects from climate change will only be achieved with the active participation of all Her inhabitants. We must be at peace with all our relations. This is the only way to ensure that the human species survives till the end of time.
 
The Grandmothers are feeling the impact of the pandemic. We are all within the high risk age group, living somewhat isolated in rural areas. Some of us have to drive up to 40 miles round trip for food and other material supplies. Others in the forest,  are a few days away from the closest store. Not to mention the need for propane gas for cooking and meeting daily living requirements. We have relied on events, gatherings and special invitations throughout the world for our income, for which we are profoundly grateful. At this time however, due to the “stay home” restrictions as well as for the protection of ourselves from the virus, all of our planned activities have been cancelled or postponed. This situation is surreal and yet we must continue to meet the challenges with strength, courage, and faith, that this too shall pass. 
 
Blessings to all,
 
Grandmother Mona Polacca
International Council of Thirteen Indigenous Grandmothers
