COVID-19 … back to nature


Three years ago I gave a warning about global finances and political power events that are coming to a head now. I did not know exactly what form it would take so I did not aim to predict how exactly this would come about. I only knew that it was obvious that with Saturn, Pluto, Lunar South Node, and Jupiter all moving through Capricorn around this time that there would be major financial stress and a certain economic reset.

Saturn & Pluto making a conjunction in Capricorn marks an important historical moment and I used this chart to illustrate their 1st conjunction and their parallel of declination:

In the 3rd installment of the global power article I referred to it as a financial reset to begin 2019-21 “when Uranus transits square the natal Nodes of the USA chart.” That is happening now. This crisis is full of uncertainties, but holds a lot of positive potentials due to the human desire to prevent deaths, loss, suffering, and an urge to look out for the more vulnerable around us.

This crisis holds a lot of very positive potentials because it is bringing people together even in their isolation and financial uncertainty. It is showing the entire world what is most important and helping us to count our blessings. I am confident that it will help us to shift the priorities of our economic systems and force politicians to take another look at national policies affecting health care, medical systems, and social safety nets.

There has also been a strong necessary pivot to Earth-based plant medicine. 85% of those being treated in China are receiving Traditional Chinese Medicine. The world’s modern medical facilities and systems were simply nowhere close to prepared for this pandemic. Most urban hospitals in the USA will soon be overwhelmed as Evergreen hospital in Seattle is now. Several days ago one of that hospital’s doctors tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 and was in critical condition. They’ve been doing triage in tents in their parking lot. There aren’t enough hospital beds or ventilators to help everyone in any hospital in the USA. Hospital staffs in Italy are having to make some very hard decisions about who gets their focus and best efforts with a mortality rate around 8% and well over 400 deaths in just one day recently.

As to prevention, modern medicine can do little for us now, except give us admonitions about social distancing, staying home except when absolutely necessary to obtain supplies, washing hands, and sanitizing doorknobs and surfaces frequently.

It is important that those of us who are part of the Earth Group (whose purpose is to redirect humanity back to harmony with the planet) now pivot our focus back to Earth as the main source of our medicine. It is in sunshine, in clean water, in the forest, in fruits and fresh vegetables, in roots, barks, berries, and herbs potent with many medicinal qualities — and always has been. Many of them are known to bolster the human energy and immune systems and promote overall well being. Many of them are also germicidal to varying degrees and in various ways. A medical vaccine will be too late in coming. It is truly back to nature now.

Your experienced, well trained naturopathic doctors will have good advice on what to do now. The one I trained with has been using this protocol:
– Vitamin C (multiple daily doses), which has well established efficacy in bolstering immunity and is necessary for immunity: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/29099763
– Vitamin D3 (in thousands of I.U. daily), an immunomodulator and important in the resistance to respiratory infection: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/30400332 | https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/315886
– Nature’s Sunshine Products Chinese formula ‘Trigger Immune’ by Subhuti Dharmanandha, PhD, which is an Astragalus-based composite formula of numerous formulas appearing in TCM materia medica and is described in the Dharmanandha book Your Nature, Your Health
– Nature’s Sunshine Products special Chinese formula ‘VS-C’ by Dr Wenwei Xie, a formula that has shown effective in stubborn viral infections, even sub-acute or chronic infections (Herpes, Shingles and the like): http://www.treelite.com/articles/articles/vs-c.html

I have prepared Honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica) for my wife who was previously taking public transportation to work, and I recently added the immune boosting fungus Cordyceps into her Mullein-Licorice-Scute root (Baical Skullcap) ‘Clear Lungs’ formula.

Your best approach may differ from these, but preparation is better than chasing an illness after it has already gotten rolling. Look to the Earth, not to stats. Look to nature, not to death and fear. Look to the wisdom of the traditions that served humanity so well and supported many populations (especially in India and China) through millennia of health challenges.

And remain in peace so that the wisdom of your body can speak to you clearly.

This too shall pass.
