ALIVE

Alive is going through a process of  deep transformation. Some would even say metamorphosis.  For this reason we revisit the Butterfly Story  as narrated on Elisabet Sahtouris website. Elisabet bases Butterfly on the book by Norie Huddle who believes humanity urgently needs a new “myth for our times” to inspire us and give us hope for the future. Metamorphosis of the butterfly makes a good metaphor for the great changes globalization, in the sense of world transformation is bringing about.

Episode starts with a Greenlandic Inuit woman singing about Yule  to her father. Yule traditionally starts the night of winter solstice and lasts until January 1. Yule can be traced back to the Norse people who celebrated Yule as a way of connecting with the natural world. Yule is a celebration of the sun, of rebirth and renewal, and the continuation of life. 

Episode ends with reading of the “Manifesto for an enchanted life”  written by Dr. Sharon Blackie.  Sharon  works in the interface of psychology, mythology, and ecology. The Enchanted Life is just one of her many books.
