Embody Your Peaceful Feminine to Empower the World

We’ve all seen and experienced the detriments of living in a patriarchal society. In fact, today we are seeing it come to a head with mass amounts of conflict, chaos and crisis. For us to live in a more peaceful world, we must create it – first in our own heads and hearts, then in our homes and finally we have a mass impact. Join Joyce and Jennifer as they discuss the importance of doing so and most importantly, how to embody your own peaceful feminine. Even if you’re a man, tune in. We all have both masculine and feminine aspects of ourselves within, and it’s equally important that we all know how to activate them and keep them balanced.

The Mondragón Experiment, Worker Ownership and Thrival for All

A Conversation With Georgia Kelly, Praxis Peace Institute

SWAMI’S DICTIONARY

Thrival: The stage beyond survival where we all weave a web of mass-construction and reap a “world win”. — Swami Beyondananda

There’s a famous joke purportedly told by a Soviet delegate during a meeting to discuss trade between the two countries during the Cold War Era:

What’s the difference between capitalism and communism?

In capitalism, man exploits man. In communism, it’s the other way around.

The 20th century offered up plenty of evidence that — given human nature, and the nature of the “dominator virus” that has dominated human affairs for the past 5,000 years — despite the best intentions, neither system has created social justice or sustainable economic well being.

The problem with any ideology is, while it might be a helpful place to be “coming from”, it doesn’t allow the flexibility required when we’re ready to stop defending positions and begin actually solving problems.

That brings us to this week’s program featuring the Mondragón Cooperatives in the Basque region of Spain. Writes Georgia Kelly, our guest this week:

It seems that Mondragón has taken the very best ideas from both capitalism and socialism and created a hybrid that supports people, as well as their ideas, health, education, personal development, and society. Whatever one calls it, it works. And, it works better for more people than any other economic system today.

And ironically, this “hybrid” that can look suspiciously like “socialism” was hatched by a Catholic priest in the mid-1950s during the Francisco Franco right wing fascist regime. Based on a philosophy of human values, respect, and equality, the mission of the Mondragón Cooperatives is to “create wealth within a culture, to foster a people-centered society instead of a capital-centered society, to honor work with dignity, and to limit the number of work hours.” Mikel Lezamiz, the recently retired Director of Dissemination at the Mondragón Cooperatives Corporation, said “People are the core, not capital. This is the main point. If capital has the power, then labor is simply its tool.”

Producing everything from computer chips and bicycles to elevators and auto parts, the Mondragón Cooperatives is the tenth-largest Spanish company and the leading business group in the Basque country. At the end of 2014, it employed 74,117 people in 257 companies and organizations in four areas of activity: finance, industry, retail and knowledge.

If you’re curious as to why and how this business has become so successful, and ways that their lessons and ideas can be applied in other places, like the USA, tune in to our interview with Georgia Kelly, who has visited Mondragón numerous times, and leads annual tours there.

If the name Georgia Kelly rings a bell, it’s because this is the same Georgia Kelly who was a world-renowned harpist, composer and recording artist in the 1980s and 1990s, whose albums have been listed in Billboard’s top ten in Classical Crossover and New Age charts. Currently she is director and founder of Praxis Peace Institute whose mission is to produce “cutting-edge educational programs that address the structural problems impacting social and political decision-making.” In addition to annual excursions to Mondragón, Georgia via Praxis has produced conferences in Dubrovnik, Croatia and most recently in Sonoma, California.

Join us this Tuesday, January 30th as we explore a workable model to “we-distribute” wealth and replace “trickle down” with “bubble up.”

Ask for Help - ENERGY FORECAST for the week of January 29th - February 4th, 2018

This week your energy is best spent taking a deep breath, slowing down and ASKING for help. You’ve taken on too much and might be feeling overwhelmed. Take one day at a time and ask for help when you need it. Whether it’s a spouse taking on more household responsibilities or asking for an extension on that work deadline this is the week to finally admit you could use a lending hand and ASK. The people around you are not mind readers and as long as you will do it, they will occupy their time with other things. Don’t be that silent martyr who won’t ask for help and then complains about having to do everything.

The Planets This Week: January 29, 2018

The astro headline of the week is the Lunar Eclipse! This is no ordinary Eclipse it’s a Supermoon as well as a Blue Moon! This means it is fully charged and over-the-top intense. A Supermoon is when the moon is close to the earth while a Blue Moon is a second Full Moon in a calendar month.

The Lunar Eclipse is in Leo and Leo loves to be in the spotlight and eclipse everything around it, and literally, the Leo Supermoon will eclipse the Aquarius Sun on January 31st. The intense, sometimes sudden bursts of energy from this eclipse affects us all at a gut and emotional level, but will be especially felt by those with personal planets in the fixed signs, and especially by anyone with natal planets or angles at those degrees.

The energy of the Leo Lunar Eclipse is about passion and creativity. Colors may seem brighter, people friendlier; playtime and leisure activities are highlighted. A love affair that began at an earlier time may be progressing to another level. If your relationship is struggling you may find it’s time to move on. You should begin to get a clearer picture of what may be possible.

The Moon in Leo will focus on the self, and Aquarius Sun will be focused on the collective. Looking around the world, we have seen this polarity play out in a variety of ways, particularly the conflict in many places between nationalism and globalism. Leo loves attention and Aquarius loves progress, so expect to see more lights shining on corruption, bringing it out of the shadows. Remember, Jupiter is in Scorpio which is all about bringing issues out and into the open so we can expect a lot more illumination of recent issues in the media. #metoo

And while the idea of kissing season may sound cozy, it can be a huge stumbling block to your health according to pharmacist, Georgea Pasedis, who says we need to revisit a more conservative social etiquette for your health’s sake when it comes to swapping fluids so freely, especially during the winter months.

Fortunately you do not have to suffer if swapping saliva has set your health back says Pasedis who shares with us…

*3 top infectious viruses that can easily be spread through kissing and how to reverse the potential damage .

*She will also give us the 5 cold hard facts when it comes to the incurable cold sore and what can do to minimize the symptoms and stigma.
