The Fist and the Scorpion: Unlocking True Umoja

  The Thumb insisted nothing could be held down without his weight. The Index Finger swore he was the leader because he points the way. The Middle Finger looked down upon everyone because he stood tallest. The Ring Finger flaunted his jewelry, and the Little Finger claimed he alone knew the secrets whispered in dark corners. Individually, they were extraordinary. But when a heavy calabash of water was placed before them, none of them could lift it. And when a venomous scorpion crawled onto their mat, their isolated brilliance nearly got the entire arm killed. Listen to episode In our homes and communities today, we see the exact same paradox. We have never had more degrees, more personal titles, or more individual leverage. Yet when real pressure touches our collective doorstep, why does our grip slip? Why do our five gifted fingers refuse to curl inward until the poison is already in the bloodstream? What illusion of safety are we clinging to that makes us prefer being exceptional...

Number 2

Cooperation/
How interdependence works/
To make web of life/



By plugging into and understanding the number 2 we begin the exploration of wisdom. Wisdom is not the compiling of information. Wisdom is rooted in getting things to work together. In other words cooperating. The number 2 is described:
Element: Earth
Polarity: - (negative, feminine, cool, dark, internal)
Quality: fixed
The 2's element teach us that it is stable and firm. It is confident and strong. From the earth (2's element) we can learn the power of silence and giving. The earth is not judgmental and provides for all. The number 2 is the same.
From its polarity we learn that 2 is a power that is cultivated internally. We first need to learn how cooperate with ourselves before we go out into the world and try to promote cooperation. cooperation can not be forced onto someone it has to be willingly taken. that is where wisdom comes into play. By plugging into the #2 we get access to the wisdom to bring people and systems together.
From its quality we find that the #2 is fixed. This means that its axe'(power) is released in our lives by using patience. This power does not bend, or adapt to the world. The world eventual bends to it. This power stands like the earth firm and unmovable.
Embrace the 2 and see what you can find in this wondrous symbol and release its axe' (power)n your life.
