Queen's Blog

The Scene: A metal tripod stands smoldering under the boughs of the hemlock grove. Your Queen sits on a small carpet spread beside the babbling brook. She is resplendent in her black silk and crimson leather and she wears a headdress with downward-swept heifer horns. She addresses you as you approach her. "Come and hear my words for the sight is upon me, fell tidings and fair wishes will themselves into words for ears to hear, attend!"

I have seen it now, the terrible things that will come to pass...

There will be a terrible war as I have said before, where wicked and greedy imperialists will send thousands of innocents to their dooms. Powerful men possessed by greed and ambition will cause the sons and daughters of poor folk to march against each other and die to feed their lusts for power and wealth. But worse than this is the harm that will be done to our Mother the Earth by the wounds and scars of technological war. In a time when men and women should be striving to mend the hurts dear Terra has already suffered the resources that might make the difference will be instead expended to enrich the already wealthy and further harm the planet. But the Goddess watches and abides.

Those who would batten from the spoils of hypocrisy will earn a just karma from their infamy and the poor will inherit the earth. The sea shall rise, build not on the strand therefore and store up tools for rebuilding anew. Learn ways of living that lie gentle on the land and teach stewardship to your children that honest ways will perpetuate themselves. Build community and interdependence with those whose values you share, for trials will come for us all and we must stand together then.

If we can be there for each other, we can endure the coming darkness, If we are strong, patient and resourceful we will see the dawn of a new age together. The realm is the hearts of the people, My heart is with you all.
