The shifting seasons have been thriving with a cornucopia of connections and fellow neighbours inspired to dream big and change economies! As our nonprofit takes shape, we’re reinforcing roots and narrowing projects to best serve.
We have been inspired by so many wheel creators amongst us right now, already working to make community based learning collaborative:
Beautification efforts by OKC Beautiful and Ok Native Plant Network. We take moments for local Flora & Fauna to thrive and appreciate nature.
Food sovereignty and localized sustainable/renewable natural food systems with Native Farming Solutions, Floribunda, Commonwealth, Yanasa, Ruzycki Family Farms, Fox turtle Lunar Farms, and Fertile Ground & OCASA. We find ways to spread media outreach and bolster connections.
Land restitution and reclamation precedents with NDN Collective Land Back and Industrial Commons. We are reviewing properties and opportunities to spearhead key projects & entrepreneurship.
Floods of ideas and opportunities to distill and regulate. Grateful for our supporters and collaborators and flowing with the consciousness ripples.
We’ll continue delivering our sage this week, connecting neighbours, healing & inspiring where we can.

The significance of this day
Day Coatl (Snake, known as Chicchan in Maya) is governed by Chalchihuitlicue as its provider of tonalli (Shadow Soul) life energy. Coatl is the day of the snaking river that always changes without changing. It signifies the fleeting moment of eternal water. A good day for humility, a bad day for acting on self-interests.
The thirteen day period (trecena) that starts with day 1-Tecpatl (Stone Knife) is ruled by Mictlantecuhtli, Lord of the Region of the Dead, god of death. This trecena signifies an ordeal or trial that pushes one to the very threshhold of endurance: it forebodes an abrupt change in the continuity of things. These are 13 days influenced by the sun, which is a symbol of death: the stars are the warriors of the past and the sun is the gateway of that transformation. The sun is singing fire while the Evening Star guides it through the Region of the Dead: the combined efforts of the elementals are focused on producing a permanent change of heart. These are good days to shed old skins; bad days to cling to what is already known.
