John Perkins, co-founder of the Pachamama Alliance, discusses the prophecy of the Eagle and the Condor, an indigenous prophecy told by first peoples all over the world about a time dominated by an intellectual, masculine, mind-driven consciousness, which is followed by an opportunity for balance between that consciousness and one that is heart-driven, intuitive and feminine.
