Casting the Net (The Grandmothers Speak)

We are bombarded by so much change that many today live with chronic stress. Accelerated change assaults our nervous system and makes us long for a place to rest. Fortunately for us, underneath all the storms of life lies the Net of Light. What scientists call the Cosmic Web cradles everything--including us—in its comforting embrace, reminding us that we are not insignificant, separate entities, but are an intrinsic part of the fabric of life that supports our planet. This Net or Web holds us, penetrates the cells of our bodies, and reaches throughout the cosmos. “This is the Net of Light,” the Grandmothers say, “that will hold the earth during the times of change that are upon you.” Held in this Net of Love and Light, we can also hold one another and our beloved planet. Here is a place to rest.
