Time to Listen to Wise Crones

Yes, it is true. They would rather listen to some old male “authority” figure they never actually have seen, sniffed or touched than hear the words of their own wizened mom.  “We just want you to be a mother and a grandmother,” one of them once said to me. She was requesting that I keep my mouth shut about issues like the safety of vaxxes, the roots of wealth inequality or US foreign policy.

Told to isolate my intellect and keep the door to my mind closet shut tight, or at least well hidden from family members, I turned my wit towards other wise crones. Our brilliant and vivid conversations sparkled and speckled our lives coast to coast across the great continent of North America and even far south to Ecuador and Costa Rica. After a few months conversing together in our mind closet (much better than alone) we made a bold step and launched The New View – billed as “A Team of Crones with more than 500 years of life experience and altogether 26 published books.”

YouTube censored and removed two of our first six programs. The YouTube controllers warned us that if we did one more act of uncivil disobedience we would be forever banned. How quickly we had earned this Badge of Honor! How soon we had gained recognition for our fierce determination to speak Truth as we saw and felt it! We absolutely knew that if the wild wise woman within us was gagged and cancelled, the world would continue to go straight into the proverbial hell-in-a-handbasket. We knew that “well behaved women rarely make history” and intended to bring forth the saving grace of Herstory - the “Her” who carefully placed healing herbs in the basket AND cared for the entire planet AND all of its people AND other living things. We were claiming our unadorned kinship with the Great Mother.

Now free to ramble on Rumble, after The New View program number eight titled The Corruption of Medicine we received this message from a “green man” brother. Jon said: “What a team you have assembled here! I love intelligent, powerful, courageous women!  And you can quote me!”

What a beautiful affirmation! We had known from the start that what Jon said was true but nonetheless it was a happy thing to read his words. Now we knew that the Wise Crone was being both seen and heard. Dare we hope that we are indeed on the threshold of The Great Awakening? Yes, We Dare!
