In January 2024, we had abnormally high temperatures ranging from plus 4C all the way to plus 15C. This weather has confused the animals and birds. Here is what bear has to say.
Picture is from an email from a friend.
Great Bear comes out of his den early, and sees the ground covered with snow. He pauses. He says that the seasons of the Earth and the seasons of the Bear are no longer in synch. By Bear’s calendar, it is time for him to wake up. The agreement is that The Spirit of Mother Earth will have food available when Bear wakes up. In the Northern Hemisphere, this is not happening. Yes, there is some green sprigs of grass in places. However, the insects are still buried deep in the bark and the ground.
Bear notices the movement of the Sun. Many Moons ago, Bear could predict where the Sun would be in the sky, and could plan his route around his territory. In his mind map of the terrain, he could mark the far boundary by the Sun’s position. Now, he cannot. Sometimes the Sun seems to bounce around the sky. Sometimes, it seems like there are two Suns, superimposed on one another. Bear also feels the pull of the Sun – it has extraordinary strength. This has caused Bear to be pulled to be outside, and not underground.
As Bear rambles, looking for food, he remembers that there was rumbling in the Earth while he slept in his cave. The rumbling is new, like the mountain is restless. As Bear swings his head around, he senses too, that the birds are moving, heading North, even though this seems early. Bear grunts to himself and wonders if all the land is now in movement.
Many blessings,
