Queen for a Day, or For a Lot Longer?


As you may know, if you have visited my blog before, is that occasionally the still small voice within shares with me the state of our world, and a preview of things to come.

Here's another such preview:

On 10-28-2008, I was told--"The Queen of the Land is back. She'll take care of our needs now."

Enigmatic to say the least. And wouldn't you know, I have never heard of such a Queen, and a Google search turned up some rather interesting references to boot. There's a Queen of the Land festival, and there's a Sumerian Goddess, Inanna, who bears the title.

Sumerian Queen of the Land. Source of the Earth's life blood. She filled the wells, rivers and springs with Her blood. 2,000 B.C.E. Juniper is Her tree. Queen of Heaven, Sumerian (Iraq) Queen Moon, Great Goddess of the Bronze Age. Often depicted standing with two winged lions. Ruler of all stars and planets, and rain clouds.
Now, I'm sure of one thing: The festival queens are not the Queen of the Land. Whether Inanna is that queen only God knows.

But this is what I suspect. The Queen of the Land has returned after a brief absence to continue to prosper the land. Why she left is the stuff of speculation.

I'm going out on a limb here, but I do believe that a greening of the land is now upon us. That very day after I heard the voice the U.S. stock market gained almost 900 points, and markets around the world gained as well.

Is this the beginning of the end of our financial woes? That, too, only God knows. But if the voice is right, the Queen of the Land may prove to be more than just a Queen for a Day.

Hi First Domino,

I wonder what does it mean?

At first I thought the Queen of the Land could be whoever that was king but just its feminine side.

One things for sure "back" sounds like a good thing!

Perhaps, you're right Miriam. I'm just not sure.

The whole thing seems to have a maternal ring to it, a nurturing theme, in the way a mother bird protects and cares for her young.

This Queen of the Land strikes me as someone with that kind of nurturing, that kind of maternal caring, someone who looks motherly upon us, and cares about our collective well being.
