The Church of Crones

✨ Good Morning Friends ✨
Thorsday 09.10.26 = 2 Tone:

The number two symbolizes balance, harmony, partnership, and duality. It represents cooperation, diplomacy, intuition, and the union of opposing forces.

Hawk 🪶 Watchful, All-Seeing, Messenger of Divinity

Eagle 🦅 All-Pervading Power, Truth Seeker, Transforms Karma

Earthworm 🪱 Shy, Hesitant, Reluctant to Share Inner Vision

Today's reading is brought to you by 🛟.

Remember the other day when I told y'all to "Buckle up Buttercup!"? Well, here's why!

The Universe is done asking us to find our Dharma. We are fixin' to be transformed, whether we are ready or not.

Subtle messages have been sent along the year. For those of us who have heard them, this reading is a pep talk: "Hang in there baby! The transformation may sting but will be worth it in the end!" For those who have not received the information, this reading is a warning:
Whether because of low self esteem, traumatic triggers or any other reason why you fear your dharma, you will be thrown into the karmic fires of transformation anyway. How you survive it will be completely up to you. If you perceive these difficulties as persecutionary, then you will come out wounded. If you see them as strength training, you will emerge a stronger, more authentic version of yourself.
We are only victims of circumstance if we choose to be.

Good morning everyone! Our First Sunday Church Gathering was a wonderful collection of souls! Thank you to Linda Keaford for our Astrology as well as the Crone talk on Jin Shin Jyutsu (very important self care technique). Linda teaches and performes this modality. So, reach out to her to learn more. Also, a big Thank you to Emory Erickson for leading us in that wonderful chant! We do enjoy it! We learned about Mass Intention and put it to work as well. The picture below is a hint to what we are working on. I will tell you more about it later but, during our mass intention effort, we put some time in to work on Amber Farnsworth Roberts migraine. Guess what? It worked! By the time Amber got us home, her migraine was almost completely gone!
Amber came out because she had made plans to give myself and my daughter a ride home. If not for that, I'm sure she would have stayed home in a dark room. But she was determined to honor her commitment and came out anyway. 🙏 Thank you Amber 🙏. She was in pain and came anyway! So, we set aside some intention to take that pain away and it worked!
The reason I'm going on about this is because I want everyone who is at church on Sunday to recognize that WE CAN DO THIS! WE CAN MANIFEST THIS DREAM! 🤫 We will announce it to everyone later. ✨💜✨

So, we are trying to bring you live broadcasts of the Church Gatherings. Please bear with us. We are working on it. Thank you Rori Klein for trying to drag this Crone into the 21st Century 😂.

We had a lovely First Sunday Church Gathering yesterday! So many new faces. It was thrilling! Thank you everyone for coming out and thank you to Sherry Gewitzke for your Crone Talk.

For those who haven't heard:
Our Raffle Winner is Kenneth Park. What you don't know and I didn't know until yesterday was that Ken made a pact with the Universe, that if he won the raffle, he would match the ticket sales in kind as a gift to the Church! With that, the raffle raised $450. THANK YOU KEN!
I knew I liked you! 😉.
WE LOVE OUR CRAZY WISDOM CROW!

I received an email today. These folks are, like us, trying to build an intentional community. I am unable to be at this event but if any of you would like to attend, please let me know what you thought.

As part of our outreach and community-building around this concept, our core planning group is hosting a viewing and conversation in conjunction with the upcoming summit, Psychedelics and System Change, organized by DoubleBlind magazine (a respected publisher of news and education on psychedelics) on Sunday, July 26. Our intent is that this is a fun, casual opportunity for folks to get to know each other, share some conversation about important social issues, and connect around the idea of interdependent, values-based community.

The summit on July 26 is organized into three 90 minute panel discussions between 11:30 am MT - 5:30 pm MT (agenda at end of this message), and anyone who is interested would be welcome to come for any part of the day or all of the day (yes, we’ll be watching the summit, but also just hanging out on the deck talking when we want a break). We are hosting the gathering at my house, 2 blocks west of Bancroft Park in OCC, and we’ll have snacks, drinks and breaks throughout the day (all food tolerances and needs can be taken into account with a brief advance notice). All who are curious about the idea of developing an intentional community are welcome - just call or email us to let us know and we’ll share the address. And if you have any questions at all, feel free to write Mary/me or call/text us at 202-400-0203 (Celeste)/ 279-300-8615 (Mary).

Sincerely,
Celeste Diaz Ferraro

Nature seems to be playing a significant role in the last few days.
Sunday, the Ravens came to bless our drumming. 🐦‍⬛
Monday and Tuesday, a pair of Cooper's Hawks 🪶were hanging out atop the phone pole in view of my front door. They seemed to be watching me 👀.
Today, Grand Pappa Squirrel 🐿️ came up to my door. You should have seen the saggy old cheeks on this fella. 😂

I have been doing a great deal of spiritual work the last few days so, it's not completely surprising. Just call me Snow White...lol.
