About this ebook

Award-Winning Author Mare Cromwell
Releases Second Book:
Messages from Mother.... Earth Mother

Pamoon Press announces the publication of Messages from Mother.... Earth Mother, Mare Cromwell’s second book. This unique spiritual book offers thirteen messages from the perspective of Earth Mother within a deeply wise, yet magical and humorous style.

Messages from Mother.... Earth Mother offers the reader what only the best books offer—a compelling story that weaves spiritual wisdom through a delightful narrative. As Cromwell, a long-time student of Native American teachers, describes it, “This was not the book that I meant to write this year. I had an entirely different book on the Sacred Feminine that I had been diligently drafting all winter and spring. Yet after a series of spiritual experiences in June of 2012, I was essentially told by Spirit to write down these series of messages. Within five weeks, after much ceremony (some into the wee hours of the night) and intense listening, the manuscript was complete. The creation of this book was a wild ride.”

In Messages from Mother.... Earth Mother, Earth Mother speaks on the environment (her body!), love, war, soul-woundedness, with specific messages for her sons and daughter two-leggeds. She also shares how the evolution that she has guided for the past 4.8 billion years is an act of love and how she grieves the way most of her two-leggeds have forgotten the sacredness of the earth. She offers 13 Commandments and Precepts to help guide her two-leggeds back into wise ways in harmony with her and all other beings on the planet.

What people are saying about Messages from Mother.... Earth Mother:

[This] is a beautiful, magic school bus for grown ups. I had such an interesting experience as I was reading. It suddenly came upon me with a deep understanding. The voice I was reading in the book was literally the voice of Pacha Mama. This is hard to articulate but it became very clear to me. Very, very clear. I LOVE this book!
—Iva Peele, Co-Director of The Road to Q’ero – A Journey Home

Mare Cromwell has penned a brilliant and beautiful spiritual guide to loving the Earth in a way that heals. Mother Earth is smiling today for she knows that there are people like her in the world speaking for her. I am touched, blessed and forever changed having read this book.
- Micheal Teal, The Ancient One

    AUTHOR’S NOTE

    Where this information comes from is part of the Great Mystery to me. This book was written in only five weeks. I was focused on a completely different book and Spirit broadsided me in late June, 2012, and told me this was the book that I was meant to write. I was fighting lymphoma and essentially surrendered to Spirit to write this. I healed from the cancer during the same time period.

    At times Spirit will just do that.

    As I understand it, for most of our human existence many peoples across the planet could listen to Spirit. The plants told them about their medicinal properties. The stones shared their stories of ancient, ancient times and stored memories. The trees spoke of a wisdom that only trees, or standing ones, as the Native peoples say, could know.

    When someone learns to listen then Spirit will begin to talk and you can sometimes tune in. When Spirit starts to communicate with you, it is a humbling experience and you realize that two-leggeds have only a tiny slice of the greater reality of Life.

    You could say I’ve learned how to listen to some degree.

    I’ve spent the better part of sixteen years studying with Native American teachers and listening to the land. For fifteen of those years, I had a professional gardening business based on an approach I call Sacred Gardening. We tried to do everything from a place of reverence.

    My background is also in environmental work. I was a National Park Service Ranger in the Grand Canyon and Alaska in my early twenties and eventually received my Masters in natural resources, which led into international work in the 1990s. That evolved into leading workshops about environmental sustainability on the corporate level on a part-time basis.

    It is truly from the outdoor space of hiking or gardening plus learning more of a Native American worldview that allowed my listening to develop. It’s tough to learn how to listen in an office setting.

    I am not unique. There are so many people waking up and learning how to tune in to the wisdom of the plants, trees and stones. These are hopeful signs in these interesting times.

    My first book is called If I gave you God’s phone number…. Searching for Spirituality in America. So it’s easy to conclude that I’m open to the concept of communicating with the spiritual realms, the realms of the mystics.

    I believe Spirit has messages for us all if we learn to honor this wisdom from our spiritual guides, and just stop to listen. Sometimes it might even be Earth Mother communicating. Surrendering to their wisdom is one of the wisest paths to take.

    Meeting Mother in the Forest

    It was a beautiful clear Saturday in April. Sarah, an attractive red-haired woman in her early thirties, was out for a long hike at a large mountain park in Virginia that day. She was feeling rather distraught. Her boyfriend Daniel had told her the night before that he wanted his freedom to take off and travel the country. Her life felt dismal and she needed to be in the woods.

    Sarah’s heart was aching from Daniel’s surprise announcement. On top of that, she’d been barely able to handle watching the news for the past few months. All the killings, fighting in the Middle East, droughts and floods—it was all so overwhelming. The familiar tentacles of depression were starting to take hold.

    She hoped that a brisk hike on one of the longer mountain trails in the park would help boost her mood. Being out in nature always helped Sarah feel more balanced and happier. There was something about the ambiance of wild spaces that healed her.

    On this particular early spring day, the forest was still and there were no other hikers. Just being out in the fresh mountain air and moving her muscles was helping to shift Sarah’s perspectives about her life. Daniel had been feeling restless for months. She did want him to be happy. If he felt called to hit the road and be an adventurer, she wanted to give him her full blessings. Maybe it would be a good thing for her to be single for a while, too. The hiking gave her space to muse, yet her heart still hurt.

    Sarah loved hiking. She started to daydream about how fantastic it would be if someone hired her to hike. What bliss that would be. She loved being a pre-school teacher but she’d rather be outside in the mountains all day. Oh, the mountains she could climb, the great leg muscles
