The Free Radical

Fox has been sewing new patterns of energy into the Forest Tapestry for some time already. Fox energy is predominantly feminine, although our forest representatives are a travelling pair– their tracks usually appearing together side-by-side, so one male, one female in actual physical representation. I will refer to the totemistic Fox however as feminine.

‘The purge’ has been global in scope. In our world, the feminine has been saddled with stifling nonsense for ages. There is hardly a culture on Earth who has not known and revered her energy and its ability to work in crafty, nearly undetectable, ways. But sometimes, even Fox chooses to be rather obvious.

With the protracted delay of spring, we have been forced to improvise with whatever is still on hand in the frozen landscape of our battered memories. In the absence of new green shoots, Fox was able to still utilize the brown and withered grasses of the Old World to finalize the purge. Green grass induces vomiting in canines, while the brown husks pass completely through, scrubbing phlegm from the whole G.I. tract. (Personally, I have been a phlegm monster this past week! There’s no remaining infection, but the aftereffects are still having me spit ‘oysters’ quite regularly. Gotta get it all out to make room for… something.)

Don’t you just love today’s pictures? Now that’s a healthy, foxy poop! This picture was obtained several days after the previous one. You can practically see digested mice smiling up from the styled heap!

“We are readying The World (there are 21 species of fox; the 21st card in the traditional tarot is The World) for our newest generation. Our ability to remain unseen has often been labelled as cowardice. We would call it prudence. Recently, this world has not been a safe place for the Female. Well… Fox that! We’ve fixed it.

“The Feminine must now come to the fore. She holds the sacred access to undifferentiated energy. It is the task of the Masculine to shape the energy, to suit it to a purpose. Communication– male to female– whether internally or externally expressed must be clear and precise. The Female must assume the role of the Guardian. If the Male purposes and intents are not supportive of a more nurturing world, the energy will not be forthcoming. That is the feminine prerogative.

“The Way is now clear… Hold to clarity… and firm motherly insistence.”
