A New Level Of Consciousness by John Perkins

John Perkins, co-founder of the Pachamama Alliance, discusses the prophecy of the Eagle and the Condor, an indigenous prophecy told by first peoples all

John Perkins, co-founder of the Pachamama Alliance, discusses the prophecy of the Eagle and the Condor, an indigenous prophecy told by first peoples all over the world about a time dominated by an intellectual, masculine, mind-driven consciousness, which is followed by an opportunity for balance between that consciousness and one that is heart-driven, intuitive and feminine. It is a call for a shift in humanity's relationship to the Earth and our relationship to each other. According to the prophecy, that time is now.

The prophecy only mentions the opportunity for this balance, making it a call for a shift in humanity's relationship to the Earth and our relationship to each other. It's up to us to bring forth this new level of consciousness by raising awareness and taking action for the planet and all life on Earth. We must live everyday as if it was Earth Day.
