When Beauty Turns Dark

Beauty includes dignity, respect easily visible to our nutritional sensors, including when Beauty grows dark edges. We each, individually, and as a species of life form, have our unique and our speciated EarthBeauty functions, perhaps what also translates as Sacred Grace for some, Sacred Ecology for more LeftBrain dominant others. Beauty is its own purpose, finds our own internal and interdependent-external meanings in place and time. Beauty, in natural grace systems, is influenced by seasonal changes, with reasons and purposes of Earth's own nutritional beauty, sacred grace. It is so easy to love Beauty, to want to cooperate with grace, to need to dance with just the right song, right place, right day and night, sung just the right harmonic way, together. But, beauty, like natural grace, like naturally nutritional elements in any holonic, yet seasonal, revolving organic system can turn dark, sour, prematurely fragile through anger shadowing deeper economic and political fears shadowing basic foundationally profoundly paranoid distrusts of Earth's basic Beauty fundamental Grace conservational, seasonal, revolutionary WinTruth of Yang optimization through WinBeauty of GraceFlow Yin cooperative EquiValence.

The mysteries of dark reverse-Beauty resolve through resonantly active love rather than more dissonantly reactive hate, retribution, revenge, from which such dualdarkness originally derived.
