Joanna Gardner contributes this week's MythBlast, “Pink Pony Club” Goes Zero-G.

Over the first ten days of April 2026, millions of earthlings witnessed a real-world heroic journey in real time when NASA’s Artemis II mission sent astronauts hurtling into space to orbit the moon then return to Earth. Four astronaut-heroes left homes, families, and breathable atmosphere to brave the vastness of space, change forever, and return with new insights to share with the global community.

Joseph Campbell often discussed his fascination with the 1960’s Apollo moon missions, for example in The Hero’s Journey (91-93), so I can’t help but wonder what he might make of the Artemis program. Almost sixty years have passed since Apollo 11 landed on the moon, and—mythologically speaking—the Apollo and Artemis programs present a striking contrast.

Embracing the spirit of Artemis
First, naming a moon program after Artemis makes far more mythic sense than after Apollo. While both Artemis and Apollo drive chariots of light across the sky—like today’s spacecraft—Artemis is the Greek goddess of the moon, Apollo the god of the sun. Artemis represents nature uncultivated by humans, whereasApollo embodies reason, logic, and intellect. In that sense, naming the mission Artemis better aligns with the wildness of space than with human minds. Focusing on Artemis decenters Apollo who, in our heliocentric solar system, so often takes center stage. In this case, however, he and Artemis joined forces—moon and sun, sister and brother—beautifully united in the majestic eclipse the astronauts witnessed.

Divine Feminine in the Collective Unconscious & in the Zeitgeist....
We honor you and reflect back your Love, 1,000-fold.

Mother's Day is about honoring the mothers who show up -- for their children, for their communities, for the people who need them. Renee Good showed up. On the morning of January 7, the 37-year-old poet and mother dropped her youngest child off at school in Minneapolis, then drove to a nearby street where ICE agents were detaining her neighbors. She went to bear witness -- and was shot and killed by an ICE agent. Today, her children will spend their first Mother's Day without her.

Four months later, no one has been held accountable for Renee Good's death. The Trump administration shut down the federal civil rights investigation, blocked state investigators from accessing evidence, and has fought in court to keep the gun, the body camera footage, and the personnel file of the agent who killed her out of public view. Good's car -- the car she was sitting in when she was shot -- is still shrink-wrapped in an FBI warehouse. It has never been examined.

But Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty -- the prosecutor who has jurisdiction over the street where Good was killed -- has refused to let this case disappear. She sued the Trump administration for the evidence. She opened a public evidence portal that has received over 1,000 submissions. And this week, a federal judge forced the government to begin turning over evidence from Good's killing for judicial review. "We are not giving up," Moriarty has said. "We are going to see this through."

Renee Good spent her last morning doing what mothers do -- taking care of her child, then taking care of her community. She should still be here. This Mother's Day, we honor her memory -- and the fight for justice for Renee and for every mother, every family, and every community that deserves better than this.

RIP, Jane Goodall. You were a light of hope for humanity. May others continue to transmit the Light and continue the Work you devoted your life to. 🥹

“Lost in awe at the beauty around me, I must have slipped into a state of heightened awareness. It is hard – impossible really – to put into words the moment of truth that suddenly came upon me then. Even the mystics are unable to describe their brief flashes of spiritual ecstasy. It seemed to me, as I struggled afterward to recall the experience, the self was utterly absent: I and the chimpanzees, the earth and trees and air, seemed to merge, to become one with the spirit power of life itself. The air was filled with a feathered symphony, the evensong of birds. I heard new frequencies in their music and also in singing insects’ voices – notes so high and sweet I was amazed. Never had I been so intensely aware of the shape, the color of the individual leaves, the varied patterns of the veins that made each one unique. Scents were clear as well, easily identifiable: fermenting, overripe fruit; waterlogged earth; cold, wet bark; the damp odor of chimpanzee hair, and yes, my own too. And the aromatic scent of young, crushed leaves was almost overpowering.

That afternoon, it had been as though an unseen hand had drawn back a curtain and, for the briefest moment, I had seen through such a window. In a flash of “outsight” I had known timelessness and quiet ecstasy, sensed a truth of which mainstream science is merely a small fraction. And I knew that the revelation would be with me for the rest of my life, imperfectly remembered yet always within. A source of strength on which I could draw when life seemed harsh or cruel or desperate.”

~ Jane Goodall, RIP

If you identify as an Empath, this video is a valuable reminder of how to enforce good boundaries, and why it's crucial that you do so. Keep your shadows clean and your light abundantly radiant - for yourself as well as others.

“The brighter your light, the darker the shadows it attracts.”🌿 Carl Jung's final warning to empaths wasn’t just about love or kindness—it was about surviva...
