Having studied for around 14 years with a Cherokee teacher and then many Native American medicine people as well as being an ardent environmentalist and a professional gardener, Mare has a gift to channel and communicate with Great Mother and is called on to share this wisdom in The Great Mother Bible. Mare explains that Great Mother is the Sacred Feminine aspect of the Divine Creator and that Earth Mother is also an embodiment of the Sacred Feminine here on Earth as our planetary caretaker and is a distinctly different spiritual consciousness. Great Mother and Earth Mother explain both have been ignored far too long and now is the time for balance and harmony. After being diagnosed with lymphoma in 2012, Mare had been on a journey to heal herself through alternative medicine. “Surrender, listen, and show up”, had become her credo with Earth Mother being her guide. Mare refers to her as Mother.
Mother asks Mare to write The Great Mother Bible because she says it is time to have another book that offers spiritual wisdom and guidance from a more maternal lens on spirituality. Mother explains that society and religions all over the world have been influenced and dominated by the patriarchal energies that stem from alien beings that visited Earth long ago. This has created a great need for balance and healing with Great Mother that everyone should recognize and embrace. Mother also shares her wisdom about the Christ Consciousness and how much love exists within this realm of spiritual energy for all of us to tap into. Another main tenet that Great Mother conveys, is that she is also the embodiment of Earth and nature. Therefore, by loving and respecting the earth and all of nature, we are strengthening our spiritual bond and love with her. Great healing can be achieved on all levels for ourselves and for Earth Mother in this way.
I love the wisdom and the message of love within this book! That being said, I also know that some people will find some aspects of it challenging to accept and resonate with while others will find the calm and love that their spirit is longing for. Either way, I know that Great Mother and Earth Mother are very loving and powerful and they have been neglected from modern society and we should all incorporate them back into our daily lives and worship. The Great Mother Bible is the perfect book to awaken and remind us all of how to do just that.
I was thrilled and honored to receive this book review of The Great Mother Bible in late July, from Alice Zhou whom I met last year in Vancouver, Canada. Thank you, Alice! And especially thank you for organizing an event for me in Vancouver in early August this summer. The Great Mother Bible
I met author and speaker Mare Cromwell last year through a mutual friend. She’s an American woman who transmits messages from Mother Earth in witty dialogue form. She excitedly shared with me that she has almost finished writing her new book, The Great Mother Bible, and it’s going to kick down some major doors. I saw hope in her eyes and strong faith in her face. She sent me a copy of the book a while back and I have finally read it – in one night because I couldn’t put it down. Here are the juiciest bits:
“Earth is one of the most beautiful planets in this multiverse. As Earth Mother, I come from a family of spiritual beings across the universe who do things such as Planetary Caretaking, or other large jobs. We are very, very ancient spiritual consciousnesses. We have been around in the universe for many, many billions of years. When this solar system was first forming, a council was held, including some of us qualified to do Planetary Caretaker work, and it was decided that I would be the Caretaker for this planet. It was rather an honour to be given this responsibility since it had also been decided by some larger councils that this particular planet would be one of extraordinary beauty and spiritual energy. You see, Earth is considered one of the most beautiful planets in the Universe.”
Each person also signed a soul contract before they reincarnated into this lifetime, but they also have free will. Many of our current behaviour could be residue of the trauma experienced in our previous life times. Our fear to speak, of intimacy, authority, etc. The universe is the greatest recycler of all, as all are connected. As many original people believe around the world, the mineral, animals, weather and elements are all connected on earth. Of all forces on earth, nothing exists in isolation. There are energy webs that link all weathers and living beings together. This web of life is spiritual, sacred, physical – emotional even! All waste from one being is food for another. Even your soul is cycled again through reincarnation. So when indigenous people say “All my relations”, they’re talking about a beautiful dance of Sacred Love that connects all people with all the other beautiful sacred beings here in a way that honours and bows to humanity, to all of it, to all the Great Mystery of it.
First is the understanding that there is enough for everyone if you all truly knew how to live in community, if you prioritized the community’s needs over your own individualistic needs. The second is greater compassion. The third is how everything is infused with sacred energy.
Aliens definitely exist and have been visiting Earth before humans evolved to our current state.
Money is just energy. Some of you know that and have been working on prayer; manifesting abundance; holding good intentions, and all sorts of other positive ways to move energy for a variety of purposes. The movie and book “The Secret” had some truth in it, but it was missing a big piece, which is COMMUNITY. So many of these humans took the spiritual principles of prayer, intentions and manifestation, and have focused on accumulating more stuff. Many have been successful at accumulating more stuff. Certainly some have been using those principles of prayer and manifesting to serve the higher good. But not all by any means. And there we are again, a few with too much stuff and many with not enough stuff. Energy is supposed to move. Energy is not supposed to sit in bank accounts and get bigger. It’s supposed to move like a river. It’s never supposed to be held trapped. (By the way, rivers that have been dammed are very unhappy rivers and yearn to run free again too).
I love all my dragons and they actually did exist here on me physically. The last one vibrated out into a higher dimension a number of centuries ago. You all would call it going extinct but when a species disappears from here in the physical, they don’t disappear from the universe. They still exist in another dimension, and when the time is right, they will return here into the physical. So the dragons were relegated to the realms of fairy tales along with the fairies, themselves. All of my spiritual beings, the thunder beings, elementals in charge of the weather, and countless entities beyond that were relegated to children’s stories. Yet, the truth is that all of these actually exist here. But because of how the past several thousand years have played out, with most two-legged dishonouring me and all the spiritual beings who are part of me, my beloved, beloved nature spirits have been forced to pull back into various wild corners of me that have remained protected. They are waiting for the New World that is coming in so they can return to their former home territories to help heal all the wounded corners on me. That is part of the work they do with me; they weave the energies of a place back together to promote more seedlings; more soil buildup, more love into the land. People feel better after hiking in the forest; yet attribute it to the fresh air, unaware of the beautiful energies of the nature spirits.
The nature spirits have a psychic hotline that travels the planet very quickly. It makes your Internet look antiquated. Most of these beings are as ancient as I am. I have worked very closely with all of them to help move evolution along, the manifestation of evolution fueled by the Quantum Divine Love of Creation and myself. It’s always been a co-creative effort. Not hierarchical at all. There used to be villages all over the world with medicine people, some might call them shamans. They worked hard to keep things in balance on me. The weather nature spirits are mighty angry about the lack of respect humans have shown to the natural world, as they have their own emotions, so they’re whipping up typhoon and hurricane. There is not much I can do to control their anger, as I’m only a member of the council.
There is another piece to this, too. Your emotions, your collective human emotions of anger, frustration, judgmental thinking, unbalanced egos, jealousy and other more base ways of thinking influence the weather (and earthquakes). Everything is connected spiritually and energetically as I’ve been sharing. If so many of you continue to live your lives spinning in your shadow self, it will encourage worse storms and droughts. There is a significant resonance to your emotions that the elementals pick up on, and the dance takes off from there. It’s all energy and all so connected. And each of you has a choice in the dance. All day long you have the choices.
If you want to help appease these elementals and other nature spirits, do all you can to come back into balance on me. Living from the philosophy of All My Relations also honours the nature spirits. Learn how to connect with me spiritually. Focus on your spiritual life and offer more kindness, forgiveness, and compassion and cultivate your inner peace. Live far more simply and in community, taking into consideration the next seven generations in your actions. Rediscover the sacredness of who you are and who I am as your Planetary Caretaker. In doing those things you can raise your vibrations, enhance your personal song. Come together and drum. Did you know the drum is my heartbeat? About Alice Zhou:

This is a very specific message from the Water Spirits in the Netherlands. And it applies to all of us around the world.
I had arrived in The Netherlands on Saturday, June 13th, 2015, to lead several workshops (on The Great Mother Bible and Earth Mother’s Appeal to her Daughters) and to participate in the Wisdom Gathering in Dalfsen.
My beautiful friend, Daan, who has been my event coordinator and host for this trip lives in Lelystad, a young village whose land has been claimed from the water only within the past thirty years. When I arrived in Lelystad and her husband Ton shared how their village was so young, I thought it was interesting but did not think that much of it. Though there was an off energy to the land there, kind of a subtle disharmony to the area but that could be for many reasons, so I mostly disregarded it.
Image from Wikipedia
Later in the evening we went for a walk in her neighborhood which has some lovely walking trails in a young forest and over some narrow waterways. I love how the Dutch are committed to setting aside natural areas very close to their villages for the sole purpose of walking and bicycling, allowing people to find some forest and openness for exercise and to relax in, so close to their village.
As is my practice whenever I arrive in a new place, I offered a blessing with tobacco and prayer to the nature spirits in Daan’s village and surrounding parts. First I did it in her tiny postage stamp front yard. And then when we got into the forest, I did it there also. But I felt very little sense of a nature spirit community in both places. Many times when I do this, there is an immediate response from the nature spirits where I am and they send a ripple of energy through me, or I receive some communication from them. It’s a lovely experience when they do this. But there in Lelystad on the land, there was only the slight sense of some nature spirit activity in the forest, and really none in her immediate neighborhood.
Then we left the forest and came to a short bridge and I felt called to do a blessing there with a quick prayer and some tobacco again. I love doing water ceremony and know how healing the prayer energy can be and how quickly the energy travels through the water. As it is all the water throughout the planet is connected anyway and I love the idea of the prayer energy resonating far and wide.
When I leaned over the bridge and dropped the tobacco down onto the slow moving waters below, I sent my love too. This is something I’ve been taught to do since I know Earth Mother and all the nature spirits sorely need our love sent back to them. They’ve been ignored for so long that this means much to them.
Instantaneously I felt a strong wash of love come back to me from the water. This surprised me and I asked my friend if she felt the same as I did. But she did not. We resumed our walking and conversation about the upcoming Wisdom Gathering and related projects. I quietly mulled over the wash of love I received as we walked further.
That night after falling asleep, I was woken up by an intense, complex dream with a pervading message about stepping into my real work, my true work. I don’t even remember the details of the dream now other than I was shaken deeply by it.
The dream was so intense that I could not sleep afterwards. I lay there in bed contemplating the dream and taking in the energy of the room I was staying in and how it was not my room but a guestroom in another country in an area that was recently some forty or fifty feet under water. I yearned for the comfort of my own bed.
Then, in a similar manner to how Earth Mother speaks with me, I started to receive a very distinct spiritual message. Yet it was not from Mother, it was from some overarching Water Spirits. They told me who they were and asked me to share a message to the Dutch people who are spiritually open enough to receive this message. (Occasionally I do get these types of messages from Nature Spirits or trees, not just from Earth Mother.)
Here is the message:
“We, the Water Spirits of your area are rather upset and have been for years as no one has asked us, or sought out our permission to drain our waters from what you think is your area. No one has come to honor us or to seek out our counsel on what areas to drain over all this time. And we have been relegated to some tiny waterways that are stagnant and too slow moving compared with our waters before.
“Not to mention our fellow water spirits in the North Sea where you have just gone right in and ripped up the sea bottom to collect the soil to fill up the land where we used to live, and how they feel violated.
“We have been ignored and have not been happy about this for a long time. We are sending this message via Mare to ask you to honor us and help others learn about our existence since so many of you are completely ignorant of us.
“Please, we ask that you do Water Ceremony to us (and to the other elements too – the wind, the earth, fire, ethers — as you can) on a regular basis and to teach others how to do this. Please seek to connect with us, the Water Spirits, and not just the water itself.
“We ask this of you to help heal this great pain we carry from being so violated by your earlier settlers and those who completely ignored us and our rights. We ask you to send Love and Light and Gratitude to us as often as you can. This can be every time you drink water, take a shower, even flush a toilet. We need this Love and Light to try to come back into balance. Things have gotten so out of balance. What you do here in Holland with honoring the water will spread throughout the world, energetically.
“Please, please share this message and do ceremony on any level you can. You can send Love and Light and Gratitude to start with. It is that simple. Thank you.”
So, now I’m sharing this with my Dutch friends and pray that they will carry it far and wide. And upon writing this, I’m going to crawl in a bathtub here in this house where I’m a guest, and send as much Love and Light as I can into the waters of the bath… in deep gratitude that I can even listen to the Water Spirits to share this message.
p.s. The Water Spirits want me to also share that if you are reading this and you are not living in Holland, it is still an important and powerful thing to send Love and Light and Gratitude however you can to the waters around you and in your personal life.

[A good friend who knows of my deep connection with Earth Mother and capacity to communicate with her sent me this question two days ago. So I asked Mother and below is the original question and response. The bottom-line is kind of three things: 1) that we two-leggeds need to get over our arrogance in thinking we know about “Nature” and can control “her”. Mother is far more powerful, along with all of the legions of spiritual beings here on Earth who work closely with her — than most of us realize. 2) It would be helpful if we stopped trying to manipulate various parts of Mother and woke up. And 3) Mother loves us so much, so much… it’s beyond words how much love she has for us. Just huge. She is waiting for us to reconnect with her and tap into this Love. Enjoy! hugs, bigLove, mare]
Mare,
For many years, I have followed the various government and private programs for weather modification that begin in the 1940s.. The project spectrum covers everything from cloud seeding to redirecting and weakening hurricanes and tornadoes to producing artificial fogs and other element changes for defensive as well as offensive purposes.. The information about these efforts mostly public, but not highly publicized. A new book came out recently titled Weather Warfare by Jerry E. Smith detailing many of the programs that have civilian as well as defense application. It should interest you.
Weather modification is one of the most serious threats to our planet’s natural cycles and poses serious problems to the environment world wide. Man is “improving” and “interfrring” with nature for goals that may not be in the interest of either the planet or its inhabitants whether they have legs, fins, wings or slithery skin.
One of these programs released a blanket composed of millions of copper “needles” into the ionosphere to increase the effectiveness of radio waves and improve communication. However, there was no way to get it down and its long term effects are not known.. Another program released barium into rain clouds, but it was not taken into consideration that barium was harmful to human health or that it would be in dangerous concentrations when it fell to earth. Various programs were disbanded because there were unexpected negative effects or because they didn’t work. The side effects were quietly put aside for fear of litigation The damage caused remains with us.
What I am pointing out is that there are funded programs that are changing the environment at higher levels than cattle flatulence in the Amazon, industrial air pollution or deforestation.. These weather modification systems are largely unregulated because they are either time driven by grant or need or for defense. There are no laws that protect the planet from harm due to this experimentation.
In addition, Russia has a program of weather modification in cooperation with the Mexican government. Consider the implications. The Western states and Florida are our breadbasket for fresh fruits and produce. The MidWest is largely grain and soy which is primary exported. If the weather changes in the West, which it has, it spells severe problems for our food supply. California now has one year of water left and Arizona has six. In the Clinton era, we signed agreements -NAFTRA was one – for easier imports of food stuffs from Mexico, which benefited the Mexican economy without raising the living conditions of the farmers. Western droughts and MidWest floods severely impact U.S. food supplies but are a boon for the Mexican government. Obviously, weather programs have a corporate agenda as well as defense goals. In addition to Russia, China also has weather modification programs.
What you are now doing is educating people with Mother’s guidance. I wonder what Mother’s guidance is on this problem which is affecting us in the short term, not to mention long term. Climate change may include natural cycles but it most surely is a product of human interference, not all from greenhouse gases.

SB,
What I’m being guided to share is that Mother is very aware, of course, of all these things. And the nature spirits and all from the spiritual realms here who work closely with Mother and some of the other higher level spiritual beings aligned with Mother from outside the planet in these interesting times, are very aware.
The Nature spirits who work with weather patterns are pissed off about all this stuff. More than Mother is pissed off, actually. So they’re whipping up storms that are only getting more colossal. It’s a complicated formula actually… the cause of these extreme storms. Too much CO2 is part of it. All the lower vibrational emotional energies from humans who aren’t doing their spiritual/emotional work is another ingredient. There is more.
Mother is more irritated than super, super angry but knows in time it will all shift back into balance again. Mother is making sure of this.
What I’m also being told is that there are some very powerful spiritual beings coming in from outside the planet and some more from here who are mitigating all the stuff the gov’ts and corporations are doing to the atmosphere. There are a class of spiritual beings who are transmuting the chem trails, for instance, also. The foolishness of these two-leggeds trying to manipulate the weather kinda makes these spiritual beings laugh. They don’t appreciate the human arrogance though.
There are so many aligned with Mother that all of this stuff is a just a short-term blip in the longer-term historic screen of history on this planet. The darker beings who have been in control of all this chaos and lower vibrational, fear, control, patriarchal oriented efforts are leaving in droves. Have been for some time. We’re just shifting into the intensity of purging these old ways, and old energies as things shift into the 4th and 5th dimension more and more.
It is a good time to have a seat belt, regardless. Things are happening fast. ;~)
Okay, gotta get onto some other stuff.
hugs, blessings,
Mare
Hmmm…
Ps. not sure I answered your main question. Mother’s guidance is to try to stop these silly two-leggeds, as best as we can. And to continue to connect with her in sacred, energetic ways. Do our emotional work, our spiritual work. Live in our higher selves, connect with the Christ Consciousness… Shed the fears. Shed the fears. Shed the fears…

For any reading this and interested, this type of teaching from Mother can be found in my two books: The Great Mother Bible ( just coming out now – Spring 2015), and Messages from Mother…. Earth Mother (2012). There is an Indiegogo campaign live now through April 22nd to help print and raise the funds to majorly promote The Great Mother Bible so that Mother’s wisdom can be spread far and wide. To learn more about this crowd-funding campaign, click here.
I’m inviting you to help fund the printing and initial promotional costs of The Great Mother Bible, a book that Earth Mother specifically asked me to write with her (and the Great Divine Mother also) in November, 2013. This truly is a book to complement “The Great Father” Bible. (It is most humbling to share that.)
Most of you know me already. I’m a multi-award-winning author and nature mystic with an environmental background. I have studied for more than 18 years with Native American teachers and have two books published already: If I gave you God’s phone number…. Searching for Spirituality in America and Messages from Mother…. Earth Mother. Recently a rather gifted Native elder referred to me as “The Voice of Earth Mother”.
It’s been a bit of a saga getting the book finalized for printing but I am just about there. And you are invited to join me in this adventure of launching this rather auspicious book. I have created an Indiegogo campaign where there is far more information at this link: http://igg.me/at/greatmotherbible. (There are some yummy perks too!)
And if your funds are tight, no worries. Please share this information. Ask your local library to carry the book. Send some good energy and prayers. It all helps….
The Great Mother Bible is now available as an Ebook and hard copy on Amazon, and other ebook venues. If you’d like to order a personally autographed copy from Mare directly, go to her personal website.

What a long strange trip this has been… you all don’t know the bulk of it. Oh, yeah… Let’s just say that you can’t make this stuff up–the adventures getting this book manuscript to this place. At some point I might start sharing them in some writing… perhaps.
Thanks to all the good friends who supported this journey. And it’s only just beginning… you know who you are…
