I recently saw the new movie Zeitgeist: Moving Forward by Peter Joseph. Although fairly slow-paced, this movie was visually slicker than it's predecessors, with more staged scenes and original cartoons, and fewer quotations to read. The interviews were better, and I was glad to see the addition of social environment and Peak Oil to the discussion.

The cacao tree is indigenous to Central and South America, where ancient cultures such as the Aztecs, Mayans, Olmec, and Toltec Indians worshiped this incredible seed, utilizing it often as a form of monetary exchange. Sacred is a word I would use to describe the experience with cacao in its most simple state.
Prophecies, like wisdom and being, can be multidimensional with layers of meaning and interpretation. This is appropriate considering the original intention of the human being to be primarily guided by intuition and inspiration from the spirit realm rather than by the "rational utilitarianism" of the ego.
