Hello everyone:
I recently watched a powerful show on a new channel on DirecTV dish from Link TV about the gathering of the thirteen grandmothers from various indigenous tribes from around the world to do prayer, ritual and ceremony in Tibet with the Dali Lama. It seems this took place last year 2007.
I also recently found out that Grandmother Twylah Nitsch made her transition near the end of 2007. Her vision of the Peace Elders coming together from around the world in each of the four corners was something she felt very strongly about. It seems that now that it is happening she felt free to leave earth's bounds and fly home. Her work and teachings of the Wolf Clan are carried on by White Feather.
I was priviledged to participate as a speaker and Peace Elder at one of the gatherings held at Thunder Horse Ranch in Texas, where over 100 peace elders from around the world - both male and female - gathered to share their hopes, dreams, desires and visions. Though that gathering drew only a few hundred participants, the one on Link TV has drawn thousands showing that every thing we do sets in motion and affects the changes on the earth and eventually comes to fruition.
As the earth mother and soul father - Gaia-Panden - Isis-Osiris - move into the wisdom energies of maturity going through menopause - the warmth of their hot flashes or energy influxes are increasing. As the earth and her partner learn to adjust to the increase and redistribution of energies so too must each inhabitant of the planet.
Rather than tidal waves and storms, we might want to be looking at what happens when the water table from within the earth rises, as it might during a hot flash. These power surges that cause profuse perspiration in a human for a brief period of time and then a rapid cooling may be what we are to be experiencing until the post menopausal stage for the earth.
The passions of the earth mother and her partner are changing, just as the passions of those moving into the wisdom energies alters. Let us learn to celebrate this most joyous of times tuning into the spiritual nature that we truly are so we may point the way for future generations to contribute to the beauty, joy, passion, power and truth that is a life lived fully.
In light, love, wisdom, truth and timing,
Rev Mary
Celtic Elder

Thanks, Karen Joy.
The article helped and I am looking forward to getting to know each herb more intimately. I also like adding peppermint for taste, and have been adding horsetail, too. Thanks also for all the info on the website.

Hi Susun,
I just saw your interview with John on Learningherbs.com. I have recently made a life decision to study herbalism. After my own issues with Western medicine, I was introduced to Natural medicine and now I want to make it my work.…
I just want to tell you how fantastic your interview was. You are a real person and you come across that way. I was very drawn to you and what you said. Thank you for that interview it only reaffirmed that Herbalism is what I want to study and become a part of.
All the best,
Corri

I could not sleep this night, and found your site Menopause -Metamorphosis.
I spent quite a lot of time there reading and learning. Thank you for giving
women this site! It is amazing, as you also seem to be. I found comfort,
caring, and information empowerment there.
Thank you again.

I have found your literature, herbal allies including oatstraw infusions,
skullcap tinctures and St. Joans wort, therapy with energy work, and yoga
valuable in my struggle with depression and perimenapause…

Hi Susun,
…I appreciate all you have done to keep herbal knowledge accessible to anyone
who seeks it out. Taking herbs instead of meds is so often the wiser way...

I greatly appreciated reading your information about Vitex. I have been going through menopause, and did not want anything to do with HRT. I wanted to treat it as naturally as I could without all the side effects of HRT. This is the first I have heard of Vitex. It sounds like a great item to use. I also learned today about progesterone cream, so my plan is to use them both and hopefully get rid of the hot flashes and cold flashes, and changing my clothes several times a day. I also look forward to sleeping at night and not waking up from perspiring all over my sheets.
I enjoyed viewing your website.

About 10 years ago, Susun Weed, you helped me get through menopause with dignity, taking no hormones, and feeling powerful, not a sad sack.
