Life on the Edge

Shown are three recent arrivals to the growing collective of ancestral earth energies gathering here at Windgrove. The two hand size stones have come from a river beach where the senders, Sara and Ralph, run a water journeys retreat (http://www.aquaest.com) in Missouri, America. It is a bit hard to pick up in the photo, but the left hand stone with its many leylines contains the face of a shaman; the right hand stone carries a labyrinth. The hand woven pandanus grass string bag is a “thank you” to me from a Cape York elder aboriginal woman who wanted to express her appreciation that “a white man from America” could maintain the daily ritual/discipline of keeping the Peace Fire burning for over a year (15 months to be exact). What greater confirmation of one’s work could one receive than these three gifts? Thank you.
