"Amorous Visions": Dreams Come True - Happy Earth-Day News for an Ecosexy 2012


Happy Earth Day!




Dear Earthlings:


It is with much joy that yours truly brings the good news.  

Ecosexuality is on the rise with tidings of sexual fluidity and amorous inclusiveness.  The noosphere massages Gaia with effervescence from the social media.  Will love prevail?  Violence  feeds on fear.  But schools of love do educate in courage and unity.  Our most compersive partner, planet earth, is moved and reciprocates with glee.

Research on how to practice love inclusively has received a major recognition.  The University of Connecticut Humanities Institute selected for funding a project by yours truly: "Amorous Visions: Fluid Sexual Moments in Italian Cinema."  She will be one among several Fellows in residence at the Storrs campus for the 2012-13 academic year.  What a joy to be part of such effervescent, trailblazing group!  Not to speak of the gift of spinning the energies to the social fabric, the region, its diverse communities that practice love sustainably, fluidly, and inclusively.  Oh my!  A spell is broken.  It's a dream come true.  Learn all about the project from the Press Release.  

Anna and Giulia in The Conformist, 1970
Funding humanities research on "amorous inclusiveness" and "sexual fluidity" would have been unthinkable a few years ago.  The radiant aura these code words wrap around bi and poly styles of love offsets many taboos and prohibitions.  So academe finally realizes they're not a sickness fit to study in medical school.  But rather, the mettle of what makes us human: imaginative, artistic, productive, generous, ingenious, beautiful.  What captured the imagination of major filmmakers in Italian cinema, and what yours truly promises to unravel in her Fellowship year.  It was persistence, team work, and faith in the vision.  Thanks to all who made it possible, and much, much love to you!  

A special thanks to Imani Mamalution and her family who welcome yours truly in their raw food, tantric home for the period. We anticipate much joy, sharing, enthusiasm, and outreach to local communities.

BTQ, 2011
Also in line with fluidity is a literary recognition.  The volume Bisexuality and Queer Theory is a finalist with the Lambda Awards this year.  Bisexual nonfiction.  The first year the bi category existed yours truly was there with Eros, a book of personal history.  BTQ is a labor of love in a much wider sense: a collaborative effort of many contributors, including co-writer and editor Jonathan Alexander.  Yours truly is graced with the Ceremony and Gala on June 4 at CUNY, and a BiLines reading on June 3 Nuyorican Poets Cafe.  Join us in NYC as we celebrate the beauty of bisexuality.  Encourage loved ones and social circles to come!  Lammy tickets are for sale as we speak.  Bi Lines is $ 8 at the door.  All details in the Press Release.  Yours truly spends the whole month of June on a study residency in Brooklyn.


Oh yes, and as an added treat, a May 11th book reading for Lambda finalists in the New York area is planned for 7PM at the Bluestockings Bookstore, 172 Allen St.  Good company and a favorite neighborhood full of old and new reminiscences.  How exciting for yours truly!  Come one, come all, and learn all about what's new in LGBTQ literature.  Yours truly's reading is at about 7:15-30. 


Events, events are also coming up very quickly.  May 4-6 is the ISTA Conference in Sedona, named Phoenix Rising as a way to recognize the resurrection of Temple Arts from past incursions of Swat Teams.  Annie Sprinkle is keynoting and a panel will discuss the legal issues.  Why criminalize love?  What's the gain of controlling people by fear?  Ecosexuality has answers, and yours truly will teach a class on the theme: "Ecosexuality: The New Orgasmic Revolution on Planet Earth."  Yes!  Life can be orgasmic when we connect with the metabolism of our source, Gaia, the most compersive lover there is.  Death? A "smooth landing" that recycles us to another state of being, a pause in the grand scheme of things.  Join us in Sedona.  A gathering of inspiring artists of love and ecosexual beings.

Allen McPhee Teaching Tantra
May 13 is the "Tantra Goddess Empowerment Workshop" in Western Puerto Rico with Allen McPhee.  A pure joy of this season is bringing an expert tantra teacher and metaphysician to Playa Azul.  In this Introduction to Tantra, Women of all tongues and colors will be empowered to discover the goddess within.  We will translate, practice, and complete the evening with raw foods.  Se habla espanol y el en dia de las madres considera lleval tu mama tambien!  A unique opportunity Allen offers at no charge to activate our region.  Join us in Playa Azul!  All details in the Description.


"Saving the Earth is Sexy," and the Ecosex Symposium III in Portland Oregon, has invited some fabulous speakers, including Deborah Anapol, Christopher Ryan, and yours truly.  It is planned for June 29-July 1st.  Let's build the funding base for this event to come true.

What other ecosexual tidings does love bring?  The biosphere teems with life and radiates energy to the noosphere.  Cyberspace opens up to host the creative effervescence of our era.  Horizontal, participatory, collaborative: it occupies planetary consciousness with new styles of fame, interactive, intimate, inclusive.  On Facebook and other social media, attraction brings together cyber communities that land on Gaia and adopt a piece.  IT workers have laid the terrain in the past thirty years.  Now new life comes to the third planet from the mind-field created by this interactivity.  Yours truly feels blessed to share about Ecosex Sexecology and Sustainable Love, an inspiring group whose extensive, open-heart conversations are especially nurturing.  Join us!  It will be a pleasure to converse with you!

Posta: A Collage
Updates come in this wake too.  For those interested in the PostaHouse project, we have news.  John Overton is a thoughtful resident-in-charge with resilience and enthusiasm.  He is bringing his care to the place, exploring potentials and getting to know people and region.  We are focusing on the intentional community.  No events are planned for 2012.  PostaHouse is open for residencies.  All ecosexuals and others interested are encouraged to join John for the upcoming summer period.  Read the blog news and "like" the Facebook Community.  Email postahouseitalia@gmail.com with your timeline and ideas.  We will respond promptly.  We hope to be open as holistic vacation center in the summer of 2013.


Another update is about Playa Azul, the enchanted beach where yours truly is blessed to live.  It's a Gateway to Gaia, a place of retreat where this compersive lover kisses you when the moon wake caresses the beach.  Completely furnished and equipped, a three and one half hour flight from NYC.  The apartment is available August through June.  You can rent it on AirBnb.  Pictures and info on the listing.  Make an offer soon. 


Dr Lynn Margulis in her Laboratory
As a way to complete, yours truly wishes to remember those who've accompanied us for a stretch of the journey and are back in Gaia's womb.  The loss of a dear one is always a reminder of one's own mortality, of the passage, the journey, the precarious gift from nature that life is.  Many are remembered this year: from Rome, Puerto Rico, New Jersey, Massachusetts. Lynn, scientist extraordinaire, is one of them.   We mourn the violence of this.  We miss the loved ones and invite their energies to reside within us as the cycle of life absorbs them into another form of being.  We vibrate with the loss and grief of others and salute the divine in them with a namaste.


Yours Truly wishes you a wonderful summer.  The best things in life are free.  You are loved.  Violence can poison, torture, maim, humiliate, divide, kill.  The challenge is to hold ourselves to a high inner discipline. Occupy the Eheart with courage.  Hold the space of love within.  Your most compersive partner Gaia is always with you.  Enjoy every moment and imagine a life enchanted with Earth as your lover.  


At 3WayKiss we love you! 
Your questions and comments are a gift to us.  Please do not hesitate to ask.

Namaste,  

Serena

3WayKisses from Gaia - Opening the Aquarain Age with Sacred Gifts and Free Valentines



February, 2012
Hi lovely Earthlings!  

    

The age of Aquarius is here to bring sacred gifts and free Valentines.  Love is the ecology of life.  The water bearer weds the essence of Amrita, Eros, and Gaia into a virtual three-way kiss that's magic, open, and complete. Three, not two, is the perfect number--Dante said--because it spins the energy of love to wider and wider circles until it floods the cosmos and enshrines the planet.  Expanding love is the essence of ecosexuality.  Earth, sovereign source of life, is also a compersive partner: so patient, forbearing with us.  Drops of the sacred liquid wet the cosmos that enshrines her to keep her vibrant and alive.

 Our sacred gift to Gaia is PostaHouse, a school of love in Italy's central mountains, the Apennines.  Its vision is to educate the whole person and include our hostess, planet

earth, as a partner with equal rights.  Amrita was called Ambrosia in the ancient Mediterranean.  One drop of this sacred nectar was known to confer immortality.  At PostaHouse we tap on the fount of this liquid of pure pleasure to prove that love is an art.  Our doors are open for residencies and events, including workshops, trainings, courses, retreats.   



The water bearer who brings new life is John Overton, musician, shaman, and new resident-in-charge.  His devotion is key, his perspectives inspiring.  Click on image to find out what he's all about.  We believe that cosmic, planetary, spiritual, affectional, romantic, and erotic manifestations of love are life-giving when properly sustained and channeled.  





PostaHouse offers a unique bouquet of fragrant opportunities to co-evolve and contribute.  An intentional community and a holistic vacation center, this sacred space is devoted to transformative education in the arts of healing, loving, and living sustainably.  "A world  where it's safe to love is a world where it's safe to live" is its mantra.  The sustainable love we teach is for land, people, resources, arts.  Click on image for mission, values, spaces, locale, descriptions, seasons, rules, bookings. We're open--for residencies only--October to May included.  We gladly host events June to September included.  Requests are pouring in.  Send us yours.  Book PostaHouse now!  We'll pencil in the calendar and send you a free Valentine.  We express gratitude to Jeffrey Andreoni for activating the project, to Kalikalos, Greece, and to Ecosex . . . Sustainable Love, Facebook, for inspiration and sustenance. Click to Google Earth for PostaHouse.

 Love and knowledge are twins at heart.  How can we really appreciate something we know nothing about?  Self-knowledge is self love.  And it comes when we know and accept others for who they really are.  That's why relationships are so complicated. Bonobo Coaching is the answer.  Click on image to find out how.  As a free Valentine, Yours Truly offers a full coaching session to everyone who signs up for a workshop, books PostaHouse, or buys two of her books online.  Scroll up and down for available opportunities.  

 Expanding love in wider and wider circles is always a gift to us.  That's what the March 10-12 workshop in San Juan is designed for.  Sign up now for Ecosexuality: A Weekend wih the Arts of Loving Inclusively and benefit form gifts and discounts.  Learn to practice ecosexual love in Puerto Rico's caressing climate.  Space is limited.  Click on image to save your seats now!  And tune in to your potential as an artist and resource of love.  As a free Valentine, we offer a Bonobo Coaching session to everyone who signs up!  Never been to San Juan, Puerto Rico?  Need hospitality, travel tips?  Let us know how we can assist you. 

Expanding knowledge that comes from love is another.  As the age of Aquarius opens, Yours Truly's books are being recognized.   Gaia, Eros, The "Weak" Subject, BiTopia, Bisexuality and Queer Theory, Plural Loves, Women and Bisexuality : labors of love that charted new fields, memorialized experience, envisioned new paradigms, and helped launch new authors' careers.  When this begins to register all around, you know you've done something right.  To express her gratitude, Yours Truly offers a free Valentine to everyone who buys TWO titles titles online.  Your free Bonobo Coaching session awaits you.  Please send in proof of purchase plus the Coupon below by February 20th.  
 
"Education is the heart of democracy," Yours Truly claims as she supports the Occupy Movement and the way it redefines democracy as the horizontal practice of participation that includes all life.  Her UPR course Huma-Love is about the infinite ways that love has been practiced across ages and cultures.  Its videos are now available online.  For those well versed in Spanish, they are another free Valentine.  They are a prelude to her new projects: What Is Love? and Dialogs with Gaia, simple books that explain the basic questions of life, and an open-ended collection on Ecosexuality.  Would you like to contribute?  Check the call for papers here!  Thanks to collaborators and inspirers, including Kamala Devi, Annie Sprinkle, Beth Stephens, and Deborah Anapol.  Also, of course, thanks to UPR students at the Mayaguez campus for the new awareness created by action to save our institution from corporate greed.  We are the university and participation in the design of its future is invited!  Click on image to find out how.

For those based in Rome and vicinities Yours Truly offers another free Valentine.  Her late father, Luigi Anderlini,
 was a political figure who modeled integrity, passion, and love for humankind.  His career is now memorialized in a Il Ponte volume to be presented in the Italian Senate on February 21, at 4:30.  She is moved and invites you to celebrate this moment with her.  Click on image to see full invitation for protocols and etiquette.

Yours Truly wishes you a wonderful Valentine.  The best things in life are free.  Sacred gifts and free Valentines abound.  Pick your favorite and let us know how you share it!  Activate an Amrita fount and put each drop to good use.  Save a life, a plant, a species.  Enjoy every moment and imagine a life enchanted with the Earth as your partner.  

At 3WayKiss we love you!

Namaste,

Serena

PostaHouse: Report on Transition, Invitation to Ecosexual Partnership

Dear Earthlings:

Yours truly is very excited about PostaHouse.  It's a holistic community and ecosexual temple for the arts of loving inclusively.  It's in the Apennine mountains of central Italy.  And it's a place she loves.  Yours truly wants to tell you all about it and invite your contribution to the transformation underway.  Love, the ecology of life, is what's coming in.  You can be a partner in this.

PostaHouse was born in the fall when Jeffrey Andreoni, of New York, Italy, and Greece, arrived at the place and began the transformation underway.  It is now in transition from being an ancestral family home to becoming a holistic center with a core community of residents, and with a summer season open for courses, workshops, events, retreats.  The vision is aligning the world for the ecosexual future of our most compersive lover: third planet Gaia, the earth.  Education in the arts of loving is where this alignment begins.  

As we move toward the time when our first season begins, John Overton, of Nova Scotia, England, and Sweden, will take residence on the site.  John will offer stewardship to the property as needed and prepare the space as a school of love.  He will welcome contributions from others interested and will guide their action toward the vision.  The temple will be formed as a laboratory where education in the arts of love can begin.  Yours truly will continue to make the space available to those devoted to its becoming what it is destined to be.  She will support the process of transformation physically and energetically.  She will spread the word to healers, practitioners, facilitators, leaders ready to fill up the schedule of the summer season.  She will publicize events and take registrations in.  She will make her networks available as vehicles for this inspired work to begin.  

Education is the heart of democracy.  The true, horizontal collaboration we need.  Education to love is where the new democracy that includes planet earth as a partner begins.  When our talents as artists of love develop we become resources capable of generating all the love we need.  

At PostaHouse we offer participation in the process of creating the ecosexual temple we need.  This opportunity is open from March to September, 2012.  You, dear Earthlings, are invited to be part of this.  Please let John know what you have to offer and together we will design an agreement with you.


We also offer a temple-to-be where to teach these transformational tools, processes, and techniques that empower us as sources of love.  This opportunity is open from June to September included.  You, dear Earthling, are also invited to be part of this.  If you are a healer, facilitator, teacher, leader, bring your course, workshop, event, retreat to us, and we will find the most convenient time to put it on the schedule for the summer season.  We will make ad-hoc agreements with facilitators and teachers.  We will also publicize all events on calendar through our networks and take registrations in.

We at PostaHouse look forward to an ecosexual partnership with you.  We want this holistic community to steward the little piece of earth it has been given.  And we want this school of love to be the sacred, ecosexual temple it is meant to be.  To make this happen, dear Earthlings, we need you!
