We are saving the lives of people with practical community motivational & organizational expertise that I notice is frequently asked after in many spaces. This draws together the whole community.
Many people running earthloving projects feel confused or resentful that people aren't responding well enough.
Often, people aren't responding well enough because we are missing community organizers who help people communicate to help one another (in the midst of our environments full of neurotoxins, not often brought up in context).
In terms of getting people to act, this is what needs to happen across a number of large communities.
We are finding, contacting, and integrating individuals who want to help one another and want to see everyone be able to take action more effectively.
Then we are working on a variety of projects to make community spaces immediately safer, so that all can get more of their best work done.
We are also broadcasting about it. You can too:

' A steadily increasing body of research has demonstrated that peer victimization — the clinical term for bullying — impacts hundreds of millions of children and teens, with the effects sometimes lasting years and, possibly, decades.
Experiencing chronic peer victimization is associated with lower academic achievement, higher unemployment rates, depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, substance abuse, and self-harm and suicidal thoughts.
Most of the research into the neurobiological processes that might contribute to these negative health outcomes has occurred in the past decade, and much of it focused on bullying’s impact on the body’s stress response system.
But a new study shows that bullying can cause changes to the very structure of the adolescent brain — a finding indicative of "how sinister bullying is,” Rod McCullom reports for Undark. '

Today's Card
Bee (Upright)
Beach
Pronunciation: Be-ach
keywords
Community • Celebration • Organization
The card shows a queen bee resting on a stone. In the background we see the House of Mead Circling at Tara as it may have looked at the height of its powers. In the sky the noonday sun shines brightly and we see Ur, heather, growing by the rock which is carved with the Ur Ogham.
Upright Meaning Beach invites us to celebrate. You may have a special reason for celebration, or you may simply need to celebrate the wonder and mystery of being alive. You may like to enjoy a glass or two of mead, which—if it has been made in Scotland—will carry the scent of heather, and will bring you closer to the spirit of the Highlands. In the Druid tradition there are occasions to celebrate every six weeks or so. As human beings we need to have times when we can come together to enjoy each other's company. The bee tells us that we can live together in harmony, however impossible this may sometimes seem. By being at one with the natural world, by paying homage to the sun, by centering our lives around Spirit or the Goddess, we can work together in community.
Reversed Meaning Do you feel out of place—unsure of your role in the world? A beehive functions harmoniously because each bee knows its role and the work it must do—consequently it is highly productive and plays an important role in the local ecology. We talk of a productive work environment as a hive of activity. If you find you are lacking in motivation, or are feeling isolated from the community that surrounds you, you may need some bee medicine. A modern English folk healer uses bee stings therapeutically to cure asthma and other ailments, and you may need to prod yourself into action before others do the prodding for you. If you find this applies to you, spend some time thinking about your role in life, and then make decisions in accordance with your sense of purpose and the resulting goals that this engenders. Remember that the bee knows the value of organization, of paying homage to the Goddess and the sun, and of working hard. Remember too that she calls us to a celebration of life and an inner recognition of our membership of the community of all Nature.
The Tradition of the BEE
Ask the wild bee what the Druids knew
Old English adage
In the Druid tradition, bees come from the paradisal world of the Sun and of the Spirit. Finely attuned to the position of the sun in the sky, it is the bee who brings the sacred solar drink of mead as a gift to humanity.
Mead is one of the most ancient alcoholic beverages in the world. Made from honey, water, malt, and yeast, it has almost certainly been brewed for at least six thousand years. It was, and still is, often drunk at the celebration of the eight Druid festival times, with the mead circling the participants until the last drop is consumed. At the royal court of Tara, the assembly hall was known as Tech Midchuarta, the House of Mead Circling.
The sun in the Druid tradition can, from one viewpoint, be seen as a manifestation of the Goddess, since in Celtic languages the word for sun was originally feminine—in Irish and Scottish it still is (Grian or Griene). The goddess Brighid is a goddess of the sun and of fire, as well as of wells and water. The firewater mead is therefore a most fitting drink to honor her.
The Gifts of the Bee
The bee's honey was only one of her gifts: she also brought wax for polishing and sealing. We cannot be sure that the Celts knew of the health-giving qualities of pollen and propolis, but we know of these now, even if science cannot enumerate the components of the antiseptic propolis, which bees smear on their hives to prevent infection, and which has been found to have remarkable healing properties.
It is likely, however, that every aspect of a bee's life was studied by the Celts and Druids. Nothing would have been ignored or wasted. The classical commentator Diodorus Siculus noted that, when the Celts washed

honeycombs, they drank the washings. Meat was rubbed with honey and salt and cooked over an open fire. Salmon was baked in honey.
The Bardic Triads say that Britain was called the Island of Honey, and Ireland was celebrated for its swarms of bees and abundance of honey. In an early Irish text, the people of Munster were likened to bees, and it has been suggested that the mythical Queen Medb of Connacht may be associated linguistically with mead intoxication. When Medb, Maeve or Mab is seen as the Queen of Faerie, we can see how judicious draughts of mead might help the "second sight" or assist the celebrant's transfer to the faerie realms.
An Irish bard of the tenth century has written a lyrical eulogy entitled The Hermit's Hut. Its delights include "beer with herbs, a patch of strawberries, delicious abundance; haws, yewberries, kernels of nuts. A cup of mead from the goodly hazel-bush, quickly served; brown acorns, manes of briar, with fine blackberries." The writer shows us a world in which spirituality and sensuality, soul and body, have not yet been separated.
"I Am The Queen Of Every Hive"
The Song of Amergin
The gentle humming of the bee lulls us into sleep on a summer's afternoon. It draws us into the dreamworld—into paradise. The significance of the bee's hum is recognized in local common names for the bee such as the drumbee, drummer, doombledore, humma-bee and humble-dad. In the Welsh tradition a harp is known as a teillinn, a shortening or corruption of an t-seillean (a bee), and in one of the early Welsh Bardic Triads a magical sow, sacred to the Goddess and called Henwen, gives birth to a wolf-cub, an eagle, a kitten, a grain of wheat, and a bee.
The bee's extraordinarily accurate sun-dance in a lemniscate pattern is now understood as a means of communicating the orientation and distance of "rich pastures" to other members of the hive. Seen from the perspective of the Druid, the bees are engaging in a sacred dance of homage to the sun or the solar deity. Just as it is known that shamans would mimic the crane-dance, so it is also likely that Druid shamans would mimic the bee-dance, in celebration of the sun's life-giving powers.
The ancient Druid laws of Ireland, known as the Brehon Laws, protected bees and their hives, and on the Isle of Man it was a capital offense to steal bees. The hive itself was a symbol of the perfect community, and we see this image of perfection echoed in the beehive tombs or initiation chambers of Newgrange and Dowth in Ireland and in Spain and Portugal.
The bee, with its highly defined social structure and extraordinarily productive and efficient community, all centered around the Queen Bee, was seen as symbolic of the ideal society—centered on the Goddess, paying homage in sacred dance to the sun, and producing an amber substance from the flowers of the fields and woods that could both feed and divinely intoxicate.

A community knows it can trust prominent members of that community if the community reliably receives and responds to urgent messages from its most marginalized members.
If a community's most marginalized members are ignored or thought not to be part of that community, that community has not earned the trust of its members -- it is eating some of them alive in order to feed others.
It would be hard to trust any community that continued to do this.
A compounding factor is uniquitous environmental neurotoxins, interrupting all living organisms' ability to engage executive function.
