RT @nick_routledge: @Sophiologist_ Reality-based, practical metaphysics going deeper? Perfect poetry, isn't it? If we have a future, it'll be integral and regenerative - the Wedding of Heaven and Earth, and Earth and Heaven and, at its dynamic, loving heart, marriage and family togethered as an Edenic love affair.

It has certainly been my experience that where the profound personalization of my own identity integrates with a particularized habitat, the infinite surge brings me into depth-resonance with other women and men also on the path to a ‘homecoming to wholeness’, wherever they are settling. But what unfolds when two hearts become wedded intimately to a shared journey into the same piece of ground? Upon that threshold where Gaian lovers seek inclusion and compensation with the deep ecologies of landscape and all that lives, do we ultimately come home to a circle of Belonging where the distance from isolation to intimacy is bridged by Creation’s love for us, as much as ours for it?

@Plough @moveincircles "By reclaiming human sexuality as something that men and women govern together as one of the most profound and beautiful mysteries of our common humanity..." What if the regenerative key ultimately asks for the wedded embrace of the more-than-human realm? The sacred, localizing?
