In the spirit of destiny, a wise snowy owl gently lifted up a grieving Earth 

and placed her in a medicine basket filled with 

life-giving evergreens.

Earth Mother sighed as she felt the vibrations from a heart of gold nestled in the basket

and was comforted by its vibrations of kindness dedicated to those in need of love.

“Rest easy, dear Mother” whispered the snowy owl, whose feathers glowed 

with a radiant benevolence and extended outward with an intention of compassion. 

The snowy owl then tied a stream of flags, woven together with a red thread, to the basket

as the wind enthusiastically waved its ardent prayers of healing to all of creation.

The brilliant Sun looked down upon Earth Mother with the eyes of a loving father, 

and illuminated within her a primal ancient knowing  

- a knowledge of a long forgotten vision of oneness and balance.

Peacefully contemplating that enduring truth, Earth Mother drifted into a restorative sleep

and dreamt of the many women who are painting images of wholeness and love,

women whose creativity is awakening the whole world to an intuitive truth of life

- a truth that has always resided deep within the soul of each sentient being.

As that seed of awareness broke open within all, it sprouted through the darkness 

of separation and sadness, while the sun appeared to shine even brighter in the sky.

Earth Mother watched those broken places in her web of life, torn apart by fear and greed,

now being restored to wholeness, while the alchemy of creativity stirred the mystery and magic.

A vision of harmony unifying all souls, who had been driven apart by the lies of scarcity, 

was reborn, and that ancient idea of a heaven-filled Earth began to open the hearts of all people. 

The whole cosmos began to dance in joy to the rhythm of this original song of life. 

Completing the legend of the Sacred Medicine Bird, the snowy owl flew back toward the Sun

and a solitary white feather floated silently down into the medicine basket landing next to Mother Earth.

The healer is healed, and all sing together in oneness and celebration - 

“Joy to the world

All our flags unfurled

Joy to the creatures 

And the deep blue sea

Joy to you and me! “
