With the political developments of the past three months, we’re gonna talk #politics . This is where we can civilly explore the disconnect between the accelerating environmental #polycrisis and increasing denial of the causes. We’ll examine these challenges and ways to respond through an ecocentric Gaian lens. Join us if you want to talk politics.

Daylight savings time shifts our clocks around, but our circadian rhythms are also shaped by the natural world we belong to.
Gaian meditation encourages getting outdoors morning, noon, and evening - to observe, breathe, and reconnect with the real, natural world. A practice good for what one might call our soul, but also essential for our overall health and wellbeing.

Almost all the leaves have fallen for the winter, and the forests are now bare. Wind gusts through the woods, but some leaves stay latched to their host trees. This persistence of plant parts that typically shed is called Marcescence. Jon Schroth, designer of the #CyclesOfGaia
poster, reflected upon this phenomenon while hiking: -

As part of our Cycles of Gaia ecological calendar project, we’ve been sharing an insight each month on one of the member species of the calendar, or some other ecological element of the Northeast Coastal Zone (southern New England) drawn out by the calendar. This month, in celebration of the yuletide holiday season, we focus on the Winterberry Holly.

A few weeks back I went on a wander as part of a group effort to potentially evolve and expand our Connecticut Gaian Guild. The mission: walk about and listen to the land and come back twenty minutes later.
I admit I typically stick to the trails, but in this instance, it being winter and the landscape being more visible, I headed into a part of the woods I hadn’t walked through before, drawn that way by the fiery setting sun.

Black Friday, Cyber Monday, and Ugh, Giving Tuesday
On a hike I led Sunday, one participant noted that his wife loved to shop Black Friday Deals and urged him to go with her. He said he responded like this: ‘Let me get this straight, you spent yesterday giving thanks for everything you have in this life, and now you want to go out and get more?"

Appreciating Witch Hazel - As part of our Cycles of Gaia ecological calendar project, we’ve been sharing an insight each month on one of the member species of the calendar, or some other ecological element of the Northeast Coastal Zone (southern New England) drawn out by the calendar. This month, while many plants prepare for hibernation, we explore one of the few plants that flowers this time of year.

Humility and Our Connection to Earth:
Humility is a virtue in many wisdom traditions. It’s my sense that those who love Gaia instinctively recognize its primacy. Those who feel a connection to Earth tend toward a sense of awe and wonder that generates feelings of humility almost automatically. -
