Reply #118: We knew it was important to be dreamholders

[GliderGuider]

But none of us expected it would take this long for people to start waking up so we could give the dream back.

The hippie movement was one of humanity's early imaginal cells. Once those cells start to appear mysteriously in a caterpillar's body, it doesn't matter how hard the caterpillar's immune system tries to fight them off. They just keep appearing until eventually there are enough of them to trigger the change, and the caterpillar goes through a double transformation -- first dissolving into goo, then re-manifesting as a butterfly. Everyone who cares, everyone who wakes up, everyone who realizes this has to change and then works for that change is an imaginal cell in the body of humanity. That, not just its ephemeral beauty, is the reason the butterfly is the archetype of the Age of Acquarius.
