SENSORY BEING – Human – Green Wisdom Cards
“Senses are portals to knowing”
Senses are the original portals of consciousness, our earliest way of knowing. Senses are intelligence agents but the power of mind and imagination overrides what we actually see, hear and sense. Slow down and smell the flowers.
In our busy mind and modern world, we forget to sense. We think and think and forget to listen to the tone while we focus on the words. We view the world with names and labels but we don’t see it. We need and want to touch, but it’s loaded with assumed motives and so we don’t. We like to taste but we gorge with such speed that we don’t really savor.
And smell is “smelly,” so we seek to cover it up. Because of our modern pollution, we defend and close our senses. We block out sounds and sights and smells. And because of technology, we destroy our senses, hurt our eyes with car lights, destroy our ears with loudness, compromise our taste with fast food, and are out of touch with nature. Thus, we lose our humanity and connection to our animal being. Open your senses.
Get sensible – sense and be intelligent. Really look at things and people and nature. Really listen to the sounds. Really sense. In this pre-verbal way of sensory cognition, we intuit. Don’t lose your intuitive knowing as you try to think it out rather than feel it through.
Use your meta-sensory faculties for instinctively and intuitively knowing. Use your wisdom nose and smell out the truth. Sound it out to know if it’s sound. Check out how tasty a choice is. Get a taste of it. Feel out the situation. See with the new eyes of wow, with the beginner’s open mind and get insight.
Be a sensitive but not a delicato.
Be a sensor
not a censor.
Get Sensual
Gorge the air
Feel the energy
Listen to the silence
Kiss the sky
Taste life
Embrace the earth.
Cross your senses
Hear what you see
Smell what you touch
Give color to your thoughts
Sounds to your emotions.

What do your senses say about your relationships?
What do your senses say about your work?
What do your senses tell you about your health?
What do your senses indicate about your home?
What changes in your life can you make to become more sensory, sensual and sensitive?
JUNGLE – Flora – Green Wisdom Cards
“Diversity saves the earth”
Like the jungle you are – fecund, full of life forms, shapes, diversity – be your own hothouse of growth and variety. In your fertile wetness, produce and reproduce again and different and more. Drink the waters of life, feel the rain of rejuvenation and let it ferment into life. Open up to the mother of creation that you are.
In this greenhouse way of life, all ideas, emotions, people, situations, everything propagates within yourself and grows and evolves and changes and produces. Make your world a seed and garden for life gone wild.
Taste the dense quietness
Smell the earth
See the exotica otherworldly,
Feel the shade in the heart of darkness
All senses opened, receptive, welcoming
Host and repository -
A Life Bank.
Sensual
Cradle and cauldron of alchemical
Possibilities
and dancing phantasmagoria
of hairy foliage
Imagination gone ape.
Greening man and woman
in perpetual renewal
of erotics and sex sumptuous
Steamy hot
wet and wild.
Dense and denser
captive of creativity
surrender to the body
and its needs -
touch and penetration.
Expression manifested
with no judgment, no blocking, no contraception,
let it flow, let it flower
trust mystery
and let breathe.

MAN – Human – Green Wisdom Cards
“The power of the mind makes manifest”
Men are mental (men-tal) and thus live much of the time in their thinking minds. This means they live via their ideas and ideals, often keeping silent. In their head, there is an active debate full of assessment and judgment. Use your left brain’s ability to keenly analyze and evaluate and thus make good decisions. Don’t be so spontaneous and emotional. Take your time to think it through. Watch out, however, for sabotaging how you really feel by a thought.
A man has a tendency to also rely on his sight of the physical world. Men like to see physical evidence, whether it’s the bottom line or a woman’s body. Truth and success is viewed in material terms, whether it is one’s income, muscles, or possessions. Like a man, work to make money, gain professional status and appear well and well-off. Watch out that this drive may kill you in the process.
The competitive man is always comparing himself to other men. This pushes him forward to maintain an image and an identity that is revealed by the outside appearance of his life. Life is competitive, so utilize this male motivation to achieve financial comfort. Watch out for the loss of meaning and joy in this pursuit.
Men are good at getting their external goals fulfilled because they have vision and are very focused and single-minded. They love the challenge. But at the same time, a man may allow relationships with a wife, child or friend to languish, for this is not of paramount importance. Keep your eye on your vision but not at the expense of hurting others and living lonely.
Success
by having it all
but getting stuck
in the image.
Driven by cultural conditioning
taught to be competitive
and in control,
is that really you?
Thoughtful,
Responsible and down-to-earth,
Worker
Stoic and calm,
Fair, friendly and firm
Providing and consistent
Qualities of a good guy
Proud man
Winner.
But fully Alive?
Or dead by seriousness
and by heart blockage
of emotional expression.

Do you take time to observe and analyze situations?
Do you get the evidence and the numbers before judging and deciding?
Are you motivated to succeed?
Are you making it in your professional life?
Can you be competitive?
Do you ignore your feelings?
Are you healthy and happy despite working hard?
Do you have meaning in your life other than status, possessions and money?
Do you care about people?
SEX – Human – Green Wisdom Cards
“We can’t live without it”
Liberate your libido! It’s time to free up your natural sexual drive. We spend so much of our lives holding back our sexuality, and volumes have been written about how sexual repression has led to so many of our personal and social ills and dysfunctions.
Let sex be natural, without any taboos, moralities, and concepts about love. Sex is a physical act that needs to be exercised. Meet, match and mate… that’s it. No need to fall in love, worry about future implications, and of doing sin, just do it! Feel how good it is to release all that pent up desire.
In the act of lovemaking, feel it as an act of god(ess), a spiritual practice for knowing the higher power through orgasm. Orgasmic release is the act of creation and expression of ecstasy. What can be divinely higher and more reverent of the life force than that – other than birth, satori meditation, falling in love, and the like.
Get down and let your “groin be your guide.” Turn on to the healing power of joy and fun in union with another. Sex makes you whole – happy, and healthy. Your body gets energized, the passionate heart comes alive, the spirit soars, and the mind is satisfied It’s a rebirth, revival, rejuvenation -back to life again and restored to wholeness.
To get all this and with another, wow. An extra-ordinary connection with a lover gets you back in touch with your oneness with others and with your need to touch and be touched. Synchronous and synergistic, this intimate coupling of collaboration and communication refreshes your trust and rekindles your life for the inherent need of togetherness.
Through the creative act of merging, your own natural creativity is unleashed. There is an undeniable connection between your lower instinctive, animal energy centers and your higher spiritual, creative centers.
Eros lives
Erotica thrives
Heed the call
of Desire.
Play out your fantasies
Explore extra-dimensions of yourself
Know all of you.
Inter-mingle
Inter-face
Inter-act
Intercourse
What a great way to relate.
To soar in the light
Go to the Moon
Uncover in the undercovers
your full humanness
of primal pleasure
Fulfilled.
Alchemy of
Person to person
Fire to water
Heat.
Attractive
Attracted
Pulled by
Forces magnetic
into Magic.

FETUS – Human – Green Wisdom Cards
“Life is a miracle of continuous rebirth”
You are a miracle and miracles happen every moment. Believe it. Born a human, against all odds, have gratitude. Be thankful every moment of every day for this miraculous life.
Gifted with powers and talents – imagination, emotion, thought, mobility, creativity, self-awareness, purpose, play – use them. Even now you are at a rudimentary stage of consciousness. Continue to grow. Develop your potentials. Pursue the possibilities.
Life’s a mystery. Who knows what happens next? Relish the experiment called you and your undetermined future. Follow your curiosity and enjoy the unknown. Remember, the journey is the destination.
Be secure in your inheritance, for in your DNA there is a continuity that is perfectly adapted to your existence. Half determined and half not, act as if you are free and accept your inherent patterns and limitations.
Know that you are living at the behest of powers beyond your control. We all rely upon the assumption that the sun will rise tomorrow, that your heart will beat through the night, that the banks will not fold, that the guy in the white house doesn’t go bonkers, that hens will lay eggs, that gravity works, that…that… We are so, so dependent. Trust the wisdom and wonder of the life force that makes it all work.
Make sure that you care for the precious being that you are.
Healthy and nutritious food, air, water, exercise. Find your right home and relationship that will nurture your growth.
And in you, another you, a new you wants life. Rebirth yourself. Reinvent your life. Keep going on.
In your drive to adulthood
Don’t adulterate.
Pure, innocent, open
Life flourishes.
Believe in the goodness
the perfection
the wow
of life.
No abortion
of your inner child
So evolution
of your consciousness
grows on.
Optimum creative development -
Go fetal
Float
Breathe through your stomach
Close your eyes
Eat just enough
Take 9 months.
Give thanks
To the mother
Goddess of creation
Protective
Nurturing.

Do you appreciate the miracle that you are?
Are you using all your inherent talents?
Do you trust the world?
Are you caring for yourself?
What new you are you giving birth to

GROWING GROUNDS – Flora – Green Wisdom Cards
“Life is a garden”
You are born of this earth, by this earth, and for this earth – here to create, grow and produce. Indeed, your life is a patch of earth to make a garden. Know that your soul and soil have the right stuff for feeding yourself and others, for living a healthy and wealthy life. You have resources and you have choices. What is it that you want to grow? What is your life work?
Recognize the soil from which you have grown up. You have a unique background, a personal history of distinctive DNA, parenting, schooling, location. Are you using that grounding, or have you moved on? However you’ve been planted, that foundation is a viable and valuable seed. Take it with you, adapt and evolve it. Your past is cultivable.
Of this earth, know that dirt is not dirty. All of your life – the base, the downtimes – is fodder, full of resources that are useful. Life can be messy and muddy, barren and rocky, but jump in. You need to get down. Embrace your life, crawl on it, dig into it, touch it, feel it, smell it. Feel your feelings. Do the do and walk the talk.
You are a gardener, the caretaker of life. Tend your garden with tender loving. Select and protect. With continuing vigilance, weed out and keep out that which could take advantage and steal your bounty. Water with love, sunlight with spirit, aerate with renewal, feed with action and materiel. Invest time, energy and wisdom to bear the flowering and fruition.
What are you growing?
Do you cultivate your inheritance, resources, skills?
Are you fully into your life’s work?
