Earthquakes: 100 Days (84)

Tying Up Loose Ends

Day 84:

Today I finished the seven I started yesterday. I accidentally got an eighth from a previous day mixed up with the stack. Tomorrow I finish blocking this batch of about thirty, and then I’ll start putting them together.

One of the images I have been working with lately in my magic//spiritual practice/prayers is that of the patriarchy and white supremacy and christian nationalism as structures. Towers and fortresses and cities. And we, who are creating the New Thing, are the Earthquake that will bring those structures to rubble.

So every women’s group (book club, moon circle, coffee klatsch) is a little earthquake. Every support system for queer folks, every community-building experience, every mothering or teaching task, every group using a bartering economy, every fiber arts and make your own club, every act of Resistance—it’s all earthquakes. What are your earthquakes? How are you shaking up the patriarchy? Rattling the white and christian supremacists? Undermining the heteronormative agenda? I want to put my intention into everything I do.
