“It’s time to take our fire fears and connect that with our water woes!” – Brock Dolman

Caroline welcomes “Fluid Druid” Water Wizard Brock Dolman, for auspicious hydro cahooting: that we ally with Beavers.

To cooperate to cooperate, good for the whole Community the human relationships become more egalitarian…. Even our rogue species learns manners. Neptune, Mercury, exactly aligned (on Brock’s Moon!)… So Water would like to speak with us… through its dedicated ally…

The California deluge… The Sky Rivers stalling…losing the capacity for undulating flow…

So, let’s undulate….
To protect water become more like water… Tao Teh Ching

Brock Dolman co-founded (in 1994) the Occidental Arts and Ecology Center where he co-directs the WATER Institute. A wildlife biologist and watershed ecologist, he has been actively promoting “Bringing Back Beaver in California” since the early 2000s. He was given the Salmonid Restoration Federation’s coveted Golden Pipe Award in 2012: “…for his leading role as a proponent of “working with beavers” to restore native habitat.

Brock:

“My wife Kerry shares your sensibilities & skill sets in the realms of charting astrological stories and thus she sent me this one to share with you.

🤗🌟🌈🌏

Brock”

 
So many glorious heartening patterns…
Transiting Neptune to his Moon Public influence…
Enhanced collective receptivity for all he holds dear…
 
Let’s amplify and spiral that forth further…
 
Pragmatic Mysticism: Sun in Virgo opposite Saturn in Pisces.
Linguistic precision guides the Vision..
(and of course, being a 1964 Dragon,
Sun conjoining Uranus Pluto – he is the 60’s!
intense ingenuity translated into the responsibilities of now…)
 
“If devil is in the details – angels in the pattern.”
 
Trim dried lower branches of our tree friends
to eliminate the fire ladder…
”Disconnect the ground fuel to the crown fuel…”
 
Keeps us all safe…Simple tending…
and yes, we might take back the word “grooming,” poor thing…
 
 
 
 
 
If we slow the flow of the sky rivers, then they be a gift…
incantation: “Slow it, spreads, sink it, share it…”
Like beavers!
 
Animals and plants, fungi (Flora Fauna Fungi)
be our moral mentors (Mars be now quintiling Chiron)
Rats will refuse a desirable treat if it harms another…
 
We are eager to learn such…
 
Let all natural facts be social strategy metaphors…
Symbiotic Mutualism –
the sine qua non for life….
Solution is in the problem…
if we Neptune, like water, reverse our perspective…
 
Mirror neurons of kin-centrism…the gaze…(Neptune)
(reminds us we are all in this dream together…)
 
Let’s have Bill of Responsibilities
(rather than rights…Tis a grand exercise to find and replace
all “rights” with responsibilities…
States rights = States responsibilities…etc
Fun to play…)
 
Brock Dolman featured on NBC News – “Intersection of Fire and Flood”
As we thin and limb our forests and landscapes towards fire fuels reduction, let us remember that “Slash ain’t trash – it’s beneficial biomass!” We can put that material to good use to decrease erosion, build soil, increase water holding capacity, and create habitat for critters. Check out this great clip that Brock Dolman did for NBC news that sums up our “Fuels to Flows” work on OAEC’s 80-acre wildlands management demonstration site.
 
 
 
 
Love that Ceres quincunxes Saturn in Pisces…
dedication to water, and collective well being on behalf of the Earth…
 
Onward…
