We at Intuitive Public Media have created an online #SuicidePrevention network that provides support to survivors of severe illness, poverty, and hardship.

Our efforts prevent suicide by connecting individuals in increasingly resilient, sustainable, and collaborative communities.

Because of severe neurological disabilities, we do most of our work and communications through an online app called Telegram, where we have the support of our network disability aid infrastructure.

Please consider visiting us here: t.me/PreventSuicide

You who feel moved to action by opportunities to decrease suffering, isolation, exploitation, and violence in our communities and around the world -- we need you.

The Intuitive network we are using now is based on @Telegram Messenger, Telegram Web, & Telegram Desktop applications and is increasingly connected to many other platforms.

Our network is a disability aid for those in extreme situations.

Our community efforts center healing creativity, supporting collaboration, and building individual income streams.

We fund the creation of these income streams (on an emergency basis, currently) for active and community supportive members of our network who are developing helping professions and shared resources.

.

Here are examples of what we are accomplishing every day by raising volunteer awareness and funds:

* * * Sustainable, survivor-controlled income streams that meet more needs ongoing, decrease likelihood of emergencies, and can grow over time as a part of efforts in the community

* * * Repairs to broken phones, computers, and other devices to enable them to stay connected to the network as IPR volunteer transmitters

* * * Emergency eviction assistance where a severely disabled family would otherwise lose their home

* * * Emergency communications assistance, especially in cases of severe neurological injury and with those who are multiply marginalized

* * * Emergency supplies that save individual lives and keep our network running, including food, equipment, and warmth in the winter

.

The members of our network, originally terminally isolated, are now able to go to work together every day by using @Telegram Messenger and other platforms we have connected.

Access to engagement in meaningful work with others is a powerful means to prevent suicide. We experience the effectiveness of this every day.

There are new and powerful ways for trauma survivors to heal and build together in this environment.

We are using technology that is widely available and commonly in use -- now put to the purpose of aiding those in severe disability situations.

.

#WhyIDidntReport: I was in need of this network, but it did not exist yet.

#BelieveSurvivors: Now it does. As a result, we are all much safer.

Are you one of our allies?

If you are, please reach out to us or to me directly.

Thank you for your courage, and thank you for your time.

Max

Today's Card
Seal

Ròn

Pronunciation: Ron

keywords
Love • Longing • Dilemma

The card shows a gray seal on the shore of the sacred island of Iona, once known as Isla Na Druidneach, the Isle of the Druids. A pale rainbow shines over the Atlantic, and on the horizon we can see the outline of the uninhabited island called Dutchman's Cap.

Upright Meaning   Ròn calls to you from the seal-people of the sea. The Dan nan Ròn—the song of the seals—upsets and frightens many who hear it. Its mournful and human sound stirs the heart of the listener to the core. It is a call from the sea, from the Unconscious, from the depths. It calls to us from the waters of our birth, from our beginnings on earth, from our brothers and sisters in the animal realm who are closer to us than we dare imagine. We fear this call, because we feel we may be drowned, overwhelmed by our feelings. But do not let your intellect imprison your heart, as the human imprisons his selchie spouse—the magical seal. Opening yourself to the promptings of the Unconscious, of the Feminine, of your dreams and longings will bring transformation, healing and love into your life.

Reversed Meaning   You may be facing a dilemma, whichever way you turn could involve risk and potential loss, and yet you know you must make a choice. The seal speaks of the longing of the heart, of true love, of a sense of humanity and goodness. In the end, these should be the determining factors in your choice. Although the seal may represent loneliness and separation, as the selchie imprisoned on dry land, remember that the time will come when she will be released and will act as a guide and companion through the watery realm of the emotions and the Otherworld.

The Tradition of the SEAL

Look far off to the north-east
On the ocean so splendid
Teeming with life
Home of the seals
Shining and playful in the full tide
Irish ninth century

Seals have a strong and special connection with the human race. Some families are said to be descended from the union of humans and seals: in particular the Clan MacCodrum from North Uist and the Coneelys, Cregans and Hennessys from Ireland. The O'Sullivans of Co. Kerry also have seal ancestry, as do the MacNamaras—their name means "sons of the sea-hound." To determine whether seal blood runs in someone's veins, you should examine the rock where they have sat: "for no matter how warm the day, and his clothes being dry upon him, when he rises, there the rock will be damp where he was and the vapor from it lifting will leave crystals of sea salt beneath the sun" (from The People of the Sea by David Thomson).

In those places where seals are common, such as the Orkney and Shetland Islands and the west coast of Ireland, many tales are told of the creatures which once provided meat, oil for lighting and medicine, and sealskin for waterproof boots and clothes. Although these local communities hunted seals, there were many traditional warnings that to kill a seal brought great misfortune.

Stories abound of seals helping humans—giving them rides, bringing fish as gifts, or saving those who were shipwrecked or half-drowned. Good luck followed those who helped the seals, just as those who harmed them were cursed with bad luck.

By far the most prevalent belief was, and perhaps still is, that some seals could turn themselves into human beings. In the Faeroe Islands they believed this skin-turning usually occurred at Mid-winter, in the Orkneys it happened "at the seventh stream"—the seventh day of a nine-day period of high tides occurring twice a year, in March and at Lughnasadh in August. Another time for such an event was at Midsummer, known in the Druid tradition as Alban Hemin, the Light of the Shore.

The shoreline represents the magical boundary, constantly shifting like the tide, between this world and the Otherworld. For the Druids and Celts the sea is one of the ways of approach to the Otherworld, and from it certain seals, known as selchies or silkies, emerge at these specia
l times to become partly human for a while.

'Woe Betide the Person Who Would Strike Me, For I am a Gentlewoman from Another Land"
From the Songs of John MacCodrum

A tale is told in Ireland of a man called Declan who fell asleep on the seashore one morning, after having spent the early hours collecting crabs and cockles. He awoke to the sound of strange, haunting music and was astonished to see twelve people holding hands in a circle, swaying and singing. In the center of the circle stood an old man. When their singing stopped, they took off their shimmering silvery cloaks, leaving them on a stone, and then paired off into six couples and went to different parts of the beach to make love. Declan ran over to the stone and took one of the cloaks, for they were extremely beautiful. A while later, the couples returned and retrieved their cloaks, all, that is, except for one woman. She looked anxiously around, until she saw Declan standing in the shadow of a rock. Unafraid, she held out a webbed hand to him, explaining that she was one of the seal people, the last of the Ròn, and that once every hundred years they came on land to conceive children like themselves who could move between the worlds. Without her cloak she could never return to the sea. Declan brought out his knife, determined to have his way with her, but an old bull-seal came to her aid, striking and biting him, leaving him unconscious on the sand. The following summer, whilst crabbing at low tide, Declan went out too far—and, slipping on some rocks, by chance he was drowned.

The Selchie Spouse

Other stories tell of selchie women who mate with men, who then hide their skins from them. They have children and raise their family until one day they discover their hidden skin in a chest or hayrick and are then faced with the awful dilemma of whether to return to their families at sea—for they often have seal-children too—or whether to stay on land. But the call of the sea is the stronger, and they put on their skins and hurry back to the ocean. Often, though, they will promise to keep their human children in fish, and will leave a supply each evening on a nearby rock. Variants of this story make the husband the selchie, and sometimes the children themselves become seals. An Orkney ballad, The Grey Selchie of Sule Skerrie, begins "I am a man upon the land. I am a selchie on the sea."

Some say the selchies are the enchanted children of the King of Lochlann, and in Ireland there is a legend that the seals were first created when a man called Kane was obliged to mate with nine hundred and one women in order to retrieve a particularly fine cow from the god Balor. He needed one child to help him in this task—the other nine hundred he cast into the sea and they became the first seals.

Today's Card
Three of Water (Reversed)

Three curious sea otters play in great forests of kelp. Two float on their backs on the surface of the water, chattering away. Another dives deep, perhaps going after shells he’s just tossed in. Later on they’ll swim to shore and find a place to slide down a muddy bank on their bellies. Otters seem to be carefree, mischievous creatures who enchant us humans with their antics and charm.

When you get this card in a reading . . .

It’s time to seek joy in your life and share it with others. When we tell our friends and family about our happiness and invite them to be part of it, the happiness grows. So gather your friends together and go have some fun! Dive, swim, roll over and play in the salty waters of Mama Ocean. And remember, as Thich Nhat Hanh said, that “sometimes your joy is the source of your smile, but sometimes your smile can be the source of your joy.” Smile and spread the joy around.

When you read the Shadow side of this card . . .

You may find it difficult to feel joyful about anything. It is possible however, to choose joy, even in difficult circumstances. Shift your energy with music, art, or being around people that lighten your spirit. Remember to ask for help if you need it. Learn to trust that loving support is available for you, even if you are hesitant to seek it. The joy that you can tap into from within is the joy that will sustain you even in the roughest times. Your challenge is to allow this joy to flow freely, no matter what is happening around you.

Affirmation
 
I find joy in the company of others.
