So here are my thoughts after the solstice, and a bit of rambling. I feel that there is some kind of energetic connection between the cave and the mound. I don't really understand it, but together they act as a 'system' ore than the sum of their physical parts. Or rather, they used to, and still can, though the components are a bit rusty from lack of use and maintenance
The 'hole in the sky' was a portal from the Upper World, a place of bright light and energy, a place of knowledge and wisdom.
The evening after the solstice, the hole in the sky kept coming back into my mind and with it was a lot of anger -a frustrated anger which came with a message.
The way things used to be, was that there were fewer people. People took from the land, and it was generally acknowledged that something had to be given back. Balance was kept.
Now, things have changed. We've changed ourselves and the ways we live. We have changed the system. That in itself is not the problem. Times change, people change, systems change. But we've changed the system to a damaged or incomplete one that does not work, and on the whole we are too blind or self centred to see or care.
People used to take from the land , and they gave back. Some are always able to give back more than others, but the 'debt' was manageable, and it worked because everyone chipped in.
Now it seems everyone takes. And they take on a huge scale, and they are so many... There are people out there who have given themselves in service of the land, in one way or another, but the debt is so great that they cannot cope with it all. They are doing what they can, but they carry a debt from thousands or millions of people who keep on taking, and their work is exhausting them, depleting them so much that they cannot do enough.
If this is the system that we have chosen to work with, we are missing a cog in the working. If it has to be down to one set of people to pay back everyone's debt, there needs to be another set of people about simply to support them in their work. But quite often there isn't, and sometimes the work they do drains them completely to the point of exhaustion, and they have to stop until they have recuperated.And this in itself is damaging on a physical level.
Our way of life is Damaged, it needs fixing. And the people upstairs are really pissed off that we have got it like this.
