“In this fashion he bestows substancial locutions on certain
souls. These locutions are as important and valuable as are the
life, virtue, and incomparable blessings they impart to the soul.
A locution of this sort does more good for a person than a whole
lifetime of deeds.”- The Ascend of Mount Carmel, Book two, Chapter
31, St John of the Cross

“What you’ll find is the concepts of the spiritual world will start to surface. They will enlighten the weak and the humble in a most profound way. Mother Earth. Some choose to believe that it is Mother Earth. In their mind this mother is pushing forward her natural thoughts for change. These being her efforts to balance the ways of an unchanging male dominant society. To balance the greatness of the imbalanced she will stay insistent of only her feminine air, feminine to balance what already is, but also, this time, because she knows anew must be born.” – anonymous, I heard that somewhere
