Oh it looks a bit hopeless in this thread, I'm so sorry it is so hard for you all!

Here's a bit of hope, maybe it nudges someone in a brighter direction (or if you are not spiritually inclined at least me having lost it completely might entertain you):

I'm finding hope in my animist faith. Ever since I've started talking to the landscape a few years ago, and overcame the fear of being a complete nutter sliding into psychosis, I have had guidance about what I can do next to make things better - it sometimes arrives in the shape of an animal visiting me, or the wind picking up as I entertain certain thoughts, or a book with relevant information.

This week I'm visiting friends and in their library I found a book about landscape healing by connecting to nature spirits, a lot of which corresponds to what I've experienced myself when trying to reconnect. The landscape around us has not given up on us yet, and wants to re-balance things, and we are invited to help. Destroyed water sources, sad forests, forgotten mountains can be helped not just by fierce activism, but by extending our love towards them and connecting with them as friends and neighbours.

I believe the real revolution is already happening in the hearts of millions of witches, who start connecting with each other and with all the life out there, and this movement is becoming more powerful every day. Finding back towards balance is the work of many generations, so in our current incarnations we might not see the end of it, but the work towards it is something we can do today, even in the bleakest of times. So I guess go hug a tree or speak to a rock, and I really wish that things get better for you soon!
