Earth Consciousness

Reading some reviews about books on using crystals I came across with the therm "Earth Consciousness". It sounded catchy and unknown to me, what is Earth Consciousness?

Some stuff I found on-line about this concept is very interesting. It looks like some studies were done in this direction. See these few links where authors are talking about Earth a a some kind of conscious subject (a living thing on it's own).

The Relationship Between 
Human Consciousness and Earth Dynamics

Here is excerpt from the article:

Earth, even though it is seen to be this inert object (“Third Rock from the Sun”) locked into a fixed orbit around the Sun, held in orbit by what we call “gravity” also is a living system (see Lovelock‚s & Margulis‚ “Gaia Hypothesis”) and therefore has a consciousness, or at least a corresponding energy system in which information is stored and carried. Even though it may appear to consist primarily of water, mineral, and vegetable matter with a molten iron core and gradually more solid material from there to the outer crust, surrounded by gaseous atmospheres of lesser and lesser densities, it is really governed by vibrational levels of being similar to that of humans. I also refer you to Michael Talbot’s “The Holographic Universe” in which he summarizes the findings of many scientists in this regard, and the following quote from one of the greatest scientists, Albert Einstein, is one of my favorites: “A human being is part of a whole called by us the “Universe” a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings, as something separated from the rest a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us restricting us to our personal desires and for affection for a few persons nearest us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circles of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty”.
And another one:
Another quote I like, although certainly not based upon scientific proof, is one attributed to Chief Seattle, which comes from native traditions:
“This we know. All things are connected like the blood which unites one family…. Whatever befalls the earth, befalls the sons and daughters of the earth. Man did not weave the web of life; he is merely a strand in it. Whatever he does to the web, he does to himself.”
An interesting read in whole. I am glad to find someone out there thinking in the same direction independently. By never being satisfied with what media or someone tells you, being like a 3 y.o. kid asking all the time "why?" you will find the truth, or at least will be on your way of finding it.
