#22. The Crone and Corona

Two themes appear in this episode.  One is a myth about a "witch"  and the other a reflection about Corona times.  They are bound by a name - the  crown.  "One day, when I was a child, stories began to circulate about a witch that lived in an old, dilapidated hut." At the beginning of this episode I'm sharing the myth,  the realness, the essence, the fear and  the role they  played in our collective  early age consciousness. The Crone, the Wise Old Woman, The Hag, The Witch  became distorted as history and patriarchal society took hold.  Today marks one year since the first case of Corona has appeared in Australia Do you remember what you thought about it then? Do you remember what you felt? Do you remember the plans you had when you realised it might stay for a while? And now, after a year, do you have the courage to look at this list and see if you’ve done any of them? We could look at the mystery behind the plans that's hiding in the mud of creation.  Looking at this time as time of germination.  "A seed is planted in the earth. We don't see when the germination  begins. That is the doing of Mother Nature; . . . We have to wait patiently.  We cannot dig up the seed to see whether it is really growing; to do so, would be to destroy everything.  Suddenly a bud appears.  What a joy and pleasure to watch it grow!  At the same time the root, unseen in the ground, is getting stronger and has the power to produce a big, sturdy tree."     Dr Shinichi Suzuki, Nurtured by Love, p. 45 *.  *.  *.
