It just hit me!!

Consider this.

If you know anything about pagan religions of an 'earth nature', then you know these simple laws of the land.

ONE: mother nature is the Goddess is the earth, the earth, the goddess, the mother.
TWO: all of the earth is a cyclic nature, spring, summer, fall and winter. (repeat)
THREE: the Goddess is represented by the earth in her 'seasons', Maiden, Mother, Crone.
FOUR: The cyclic nature of earth and the Goddess is represented in the 4 points, east, south, west and north.
From north to east is the birth, from east to south is the growth, from south to west is the harvest and from west to north is the death/sleep.

ALL three are one..(just think the holy trinity)..The goddess is Mother Nature is the Earth in cyclic seasons.


As females, just like the earth..we and she are the same. Our cycles are as the Mothers cycles. The Mothers cycles are our own.

North to east: The Spring; you are born and grow from a baby to a child/teen.

From East to South, The Summer; you grow and develop from child/teen to women hood, giving birth to children, ideas and careers.

From South to West, The fall is your reaping, enjoying the hard work and benefits of your 'summer'. Beginning the aging.

From West to North, The winter of your life. The final aging. The snow on the head, the process of death.

(sorry to put it that way, but hey, this is a blog of honesty and to quote the new queen in Braveheart "death comes to us all" )

Having established the earth is female, Here's the question and the revelation I had:
If the earth is female, and she has the same seasons of life as you and I do, then tell me, when would mother natures 'menopause' begin??



We are now in the Goddess's Menopause stage. This menopause stage seems to run right along the same time lines as 'hurricane' season. Funny huh?
The Earth/Mother/Goddess has a menopause..is IN menopause! Hurricanes, Tornadoes, Floods, Storms, Lightening, Earthquakes, Tsunami's..etc, etc.

(Sounds like menopause to me..I know I could easily create those things in my own home!)

By the last harvest (Oct 31), her menopause will settle and the hot flashes of summer will be over, the storms and change of attitude will be gone and then like every aging women we know, she will get cold. She will shiver in her place in the heavens, appear to die with the bareness then be reborn again come spring.

Hmm food for thought??
