Throughout the ages various cultures have held that the Earth is alive. Some have named the Earth as a goddess, as the Greeks did, calling her Gaia. Most cultural mythic stories of origin do not separate what we in the West call nature vs. supernature. They simply assume that humans came forth from the same living source that gave life to plants and other animals. The ideas that the Earth is not-alive or simply a dirt ball hurling through the cosmos or nothing but a temporary residence for human life—are counterintuitive to most cultures. Yet, these ideas are key to the stories of origin of the three Big Stories that dominate contemporary global consciousness.

Earthfolk's gasping response to the sight of Mother! was an awakening to
more than
any previous mythic story has ever conveyed. It was an
awakening to the heartfelt emotional bond that we share with all that
exists: not just humans, fauna and floral but with what is labeled by the
dominant Big Stories as "inorganic," meaning dead or lifeless.
Earthfolk sensed that everything that is, is part of the Living Earth.
Rocks, stones, minerals, elementals ... everything is
somehow
what the Living Earth is.

Part of this "more than"—we Earthfolk were also grasped by an insight into the heartfelt relationship which emerged as we delighted in Mother! ... We were amazed and astounded by the nurturing presence of Father!

It is the insight into and heartfelt sense of being parented that marked our transformation into being Earthfolk.

We passionately felt ourselves present as the Forever Family.
This was the sense that all that is has always been and will always be.
In the human sphere, you are someone's child and you are the
potential parent of every other child.
Through time you as an individual transform as the
Family lives on Forever.

We Earthfolk live peacefully at-home on the Living Earth within the
nurturing parental embrace of our Forever Family.
