Navigating the Human Transition to an Ecological Civilization

A Conversation with Economist and Author David Korten

“Here is the REAL bottom line: If we destroy the planet, there goes the GDP.” — Swami Beyondananda

David Korten’s life and work can probably be summed up in this quote: “We will prosper in the pursuit of life, or we will perish in the pursuit of money. The choice is ours.”

As the unfolding of environmental disasters continues, the window of opportunity for this choice seems to be narrowing. But again, another quote, this one from Samuel Johnson: “When a man knows he is to be hanged… it concentrates his mind wonderfully.”

As guest on this week’s Wiki Politiki show, David Korten offers his latest — and surprising — views on our pathway toward “ecological civilization” a pathway he says, that goes right to and through China. Will China lead when a Trump-misled USA won’t? Tune in and hear what David has to say.

Dr. David C. Korten is the founder and president of the Living Economies Forum; co-founder, board member, and board chair emeritus of YES! Magazine; an associate fellow of the Institute for Policy Studies; and a full member of the Club of Rome.

Korten worked for more than thirty-five years in the field of international business development before he turned away from the establishment to become a leading critic of what he calls “global suicide economy”. He now devotes his life to advancing the global transition now underway to a living Earth economy organized around deeply democratic self-governing living communities in which people work in co-productive partnership with the rest of nature to meet the needs of all.

In 1998, he and his wife Fran moved to from New York City to Bainbridge Island, Washington where Fran became executive director and publisher of YES! Magazine and David wrote in succession The Post-Corporate World: Life After Capitalism (1999); The Great Turning: From Empire to Earth Community (2006); Agenda for a New Economy: From Phantom Wealth to Real Wealth (2009, 2010), and Change the Story, Change the Future: A Living Economy for a Living Earth (2015).

Join us for a sober yet hopeful conversation on our most helpful and healthful way forward, this Tuesday, May 8th at 2 pm PT / 5 pm ET.

The Aspects and Elements

There is so much more to astrology than Sun signs. It’s a complex ancient mathematical system that tracks the movements of the planets in their orbit around the sun. Astrologers divide the Zodiac signs into groupings that link signs together by specific characteristics, which makes it easier to learn the signs.

The four elements associated with the signs of the Zodiac break the signs down into the basic groupings of Fire, Earth, Air and Water. The natural world fits into these four classifications, whose basic characteristics — the heat of fire, the stability of earth, the changeability of air and the fluidity of water — can be applied to human nature. People with a lot of Fire in their charts (meaning, several planets in the Fire Signs of Aries, Leo or Sagittarius) tend to be hotheaded and warmhearted, for example, while people with lots of Earth such as Taurus, Virgo or Capricorn are usually practical and down-to-earth. The Air Signs of Gemini, Libra or Aquarius are cerebral and expressive while the Water Signs of Cancer, Scorpio or Pisces are emotional, intuitive and sometimes hard to fathom.

Besides the four elements, there are three qualities that influence the signs — Cardinal, Fixed and Mutable. These qualities speak to a person’s general attitude and the way they tackle a project.

Aspects are an essential part of interpreting a birth chart because they describe the exact relationship between two or more planets — a physical relationship that’s specific down to the degree. An astrological chart is mapped out in a full circle of 360 degrees, and aspects occur when planets are zero degrees apart, thirty, sixty and so on.

I Heart You Loud And Clear

Do you sometimes get chocked up? Or maybe you explode? Maybe you do both and don’t have a clue how you’ll express yourself the next time you want to say something.

Sometimes it can be just as hard to have someone else hear us loudly and clearly and understand us with their hearts as it is for ourselves when we’re struggling with how to get it out…or how to filter and deliver with love.

How do we express what we’re feeling? How do we connect to another? What language is truly universal?

Join Pamela Larocque and Lisa Berry on Food For The Soul by Light On Living as they explore how to fully express as an energetic being. Learn the roles of the heart and throat chakra, how they ‘talk’ and what to feed these beautiful energy centers so they are fully charged and ready to be heard… loud and clear!
