We know terra lucida – Earth of Light – as an aspect of Divinity that is translated into the world as a myriad of beings both physical and psychical. The Zoroastrian texts of ancient Persia describe the soul of the world as Earth-in-her-Angel, whom we should see and experience as the powerful, wondrous, loving, archetypal, intelligent and Self-aware being that she is − in her own right! AND … she loves us as fiercely, as compassionately and as faith-fully as does the Divine.
