Holism(anthropological): "Holism is the perspective on the human condition that assumes that mind, body, individuals, society, and the environment interpenetrate, and even define one another. In anthropology holism tries to integrate all that is known about human beings and their activities. From a holistic perspective, attempts to divide reality into mind and matter isolate and pin down certain aspects of a process that, by very nature, resists isolation and dissection. Holism holds great appeal for those who seek a theory of human nature that is rich enough to do justice to its complex subject matter."

O Virtus Sapientie (Hildegard von Bingen)
•••
"The figure of Sapientia (Divine Wisdom), personified at several points in some of the Old Testament’s more poetical books (e.g. Proverbs 8-9, Ecclesiasticus/Sirach 24, and Wisdom of Solomon 7-8), is one of Hildegard’s most constant visionary companions. Like Caritas (Divine Love), who appears in similar ways in others of Hildegard’s visions, she represents “the ultimate mystery of creation, the bond between Creator and creature” (Newman, Sister of Wisdom, p. 44). Hildegard’s thought often works within the platonizing mirror of emanation and return, the cycle at the center of which is the Incarnation. That cyclical process is, for Hildegard, the place in which the feminine side of God is most clearly revealed. The hallmark of both her theology and her poetic style is that the feminine is the place where God stoops to human weakness and human weakness can, in turn, reach out to touch the face of God." "O Wisdom’s energy! Whirling, you encircle and everything embrace in the single way of life. Three wings you have: one soars above into the heights, one from the earth exudes, and all about now flies the third. Praise be to you, as is your due, O Wisdom." Campbell, N. M. (n.d.). O Virtus Sapientie. International Society of Hildegard von Bingen Studies. https://www.hildegard-society.org/2014/07/o-virtus-sapientie-antiphon.html

Bryn Celli Ddu
•••
"Though far less famous than Stonehenge, the spectacle of sunlight shining down a long narrow passage to light up the inner chamber of Bryn Celli Ddu on the longest day of the year is unforgettable. Excavation now suggests the site had significance for prehistoric people that lasted for millennia after the earth mound was raised over a stone passage grave. The monument, whose name translates as the mound in the dark grove, was first excavated in 1865 and heavily reconstructed in the 1920s, but excavations over the last three summers – with members of the public joining archaeologists – are unveiling 5,000 years of human activity in the landscape." Kennedy, M. (2017, June 21). Archaeologists unearth prehistoric ritual area around Bryn Celli Ddu. The Guardian. https://www.theguardian.com/science/2017/jun/21/archeologists-unearth-prehistoric-ritual-area-bryn-celli-ddu-anglesey

Drink Deep (Florence and the Machine)
•••
"My eyes began to hollow My skin began to fade What I thought was a night, was a thousand years What I thought was a sip, was a thousand tears But still they said drink deep Drink deep But the thread that they spun Was a woman's hair And the gowns stitched from her tenderest flesh And the cup that they brought up to my lips I realized I drank of myself Yes it came from me It was made from me Still I drank deep Still I drank deep" Drink Deep, Florence and the Machine (2025)
