Pay attention to the culture without being driven by the culture.

A huge cultural shift has happened in the US within most of our own lifetimes.
It’s a change in an everyday gesture that people have been doing for centuries--possibly, millennia.
And few of us have ever stopped to notice the change:
We sneeze into our elbows now instead of into our hands.

Anyone else find it interesting that the stereotypical "bully" has been gradually shifting from 'buff jock' to 'nerd behind a keyboard '?

THE INDIVIDUAL AND SHIFTS IN THE CULTURE: HOW THE HEALER MAY HELP
Tumblr media
One topic I deal with as a homeopath and flower essence healer is how changes in the culture can affect the individuals who come to me for help.
One recent example is the shift in the culture of big cities in many U.S. states, especially in affluent states such as Washington and California: Many people or entire families we are surrounded by are on the "Me, Me, Me first" wagon. It is hard to make friends or to preserve friendships if everyone around us is busy growing their egos. Friends may be chronically unavailable, for example, because they are remodeling their luxury homes or hopping the world on constant vacations—and their weekends are for competitions and shows they or their children perform in. The people who are new to an area and would like to find a community or a few real friends, or who have not moved but simply value time with great friends, are always on the losing end in such cultural settings.
The homeopath and flower essence healer will work with the individual who came to him or her from within that cultural setting. The healer will not necessarily advocate for a move or spend their energy changing the city or the culture—being a healer, they are generally not suited to such crusades. The healer may, through flower essences and homeopathic remedies as well as through what they say, help the client to refine their clarity and perspective. The client gets a good grasp on who they are, what their values are, and what their life goals are. As the client becomes stronger, he or she may no longer feel so easily swept by currents in the culture or by actions from people who are not a good influence. The client will start reading text messages and e-mails and assessing actions from the people around them more quickly: For example, they may say, "person A declined my invitation or phone call 9 out of 10 times, I will be moving on, I won't spend my energy in that direction any longer, and I will seek out people who want me in their life and who make the time for me as I make it for them."

Shifting culture is hearing “oh my god I love this character so much I wish they were real!!” and fighting the urge to tell the person about shifting

I think these conversations would go better if we conceptualized terms like "homophobia", "transphobia", and "misogyny" not as the "basic" oppression that you start with until you sprinkle intersectionality on top, but rather as names for where more complex experiences overlap.
"Transphobia" is not the "base" we start with and build on with other experiences; it's the place where more specific experiences overlap. It's the middle of the venn diagram where "transmisogyny", "transandrophobia", and "exorsexism"/"nbphobia" all overlap with each other.
It's the thing we all have in common; not the thing that some people get extra special versions of while others do not.

Vasco is the "Päivänsäde" to Machete's "Menninkäinen", isn't he :)c (To non-Finnish speakers, I am referencing a popular old Finnish folk(?) song where a "Päivänsäde" aka a fairy-like "Ray of sunshine" and a "Menninkäinen" aka a kind of nocturnal "goblin" fall in love at sunset where the day and night meet, but are then tragically torn apart by the fact they can't live in eachothers worlds/time of day) Idk if it quite makes 100% sense, but a valid comparison yes?
When the sun had run it's course From her sisters fell behind The last Ray of Light. The twilight was creeping in The Ray of Light, with her golden wings Was about to fly away from its path
When she saw a small Goblin walking her way He'd just risen from his cave See, before sunset Goblin cannot Live at all in the world outside
They beheld each other The Goblin felt an odd flame in his heart He said: "You burn my eyes, But I have never in my life Seen anything as beautiful as you
It does not matter that your radiance blinds me It is easy for me to travel in the dark. Stay with me, and I'll show you the way to my cave And take you as my beloved"
Ray of Light replied: "My Goblin, dear The darkness will take my life And I do not wish to die. I must leave at once, For if I don't fly into the light, I shan't live for another moment!"
So went beautiful Ray of Light, but still When the Goblin wanders alone, He ponders why one is the child of light And another loves the night.

SO SO excited for new people to once again experience qommunication smp and be welcomed with warm open arms to the island found family, and then immediately be thrown into possible parenthood along with the terrifying horrors like everyone else <3

didnt want to talk about it but i feel like im actually going insane
anti-queer laws are popping up everywhere, fascism is on the rise in every country around me, including my own which is famous for the atrocities of its past that happened not even 100 years ago and only got this far bc no one thought he'd get through with it
a pandemic that WASNT defeated and is STILL around and endangering everyone yet nigh everyone acts like its a thing of the past
the entire creativity of humanity being stolen and chewed up in a maschine so companies can make an endless shitty new schlock of media to pay even less to even less people and earn more or for some entitled tech bros thinking that all art is is the jpeg on screen deluding themselves into believing they now have a privilege denied to them by the talent-god even tho that god never existed and the only one who denies them the ability to make art is themselves
the climate visibly going haywire and few things are done against it, if at all even
and now i am watching a genocide happen while every piece of media joins into the propaganda of the oppressor, of course i dont think hamas is good, a terror organisation is a terror organisation no matter who they claim to fight for, and i am not defending them, hell no, but why are we being told to cheer on an entire country being wiped out for something a small group did, knowing that wiping palestine from existence has been the goal of israel all this time and this has now given them a good excuse and international support to finish it off?? the war russia started agaisnt ukraine is still ongoing, isnt there also a genocide happenign in armenia? and one against a minority in china as well?? probably even more i havent even heard about..
i didnt know about the details of whats happening to palestine until a few days ago either but now, on top of everything, i feel like im losing it, what even is happening, how am i supposed to just .. go on with my daily life while all of that is going on, not losing your faith into humanity has become a real challenge over these last few years even tho i know its vital to keep it alive bc the pit of thinking its all lost anyway is deep and only makes things worse for everyone
