THE BUZZ


Nourish Yourself Physically, Emotionally and Spiritually


hamans know that humans are the only species to walk completely upright. We are considered “walking trees”. As such, we have the unique honor of connecting earth and sky. As we walk on the earth, we


S


are taking in energy from the sky (masculine essence) through the tops of our heads and we are also taking in energy from the earth (feminine essence) through the soles of our feet. These energies meet at our hearts, our centers for love and compassion. Although the sky is considered masculine, legend has it that the moon was placed there to make sure the men wouldn’t fall short on their responsibili- ties or misuse their knowledge. Women are there to keep a watchful eye on things. Just as women are needed to keep an eye on and be a voice in predominately masculine fi elds such as politics, law enforcement, science or medicine, so it is in the sky.


The moon is an amazing and wonderful thing, having perfect


28-day cycles, just as women do. Long, long ago, before technology and the industrial age, all women had our moons, our menses, at the same time, in exact coordination with the moon. Don’t cringe at the thought of all that PMS at once. There was no PMS because we were all living harmoniously with our universe. We have gotten misaligned by artifi cial light, artifi cial foods, artifi cial bodies, artifi cial houses and anything else humans thought they could make better by modifying it from its original form.


To realign with the moon’s gifts, pay attention to what is happen-


ing around you, especially in regard to our environment and food. Choose foods wisely, closest to their natural state. Drink more clean, fresh water to restore your natural chemistry.
